Nope. If you're going about it this way, it's a math problem. To find the distance, we add the height of the guy to the radius of the earth. Then square that number and multiply by pi. I still think ekfud nailed it.
fgsfds. Don't think that'll work...Especially if there's no division / subtraction. Unless I'm missing something huge here.chittydog wrote:

Psp, was the man a hitman?
Nope, I asked that. The bastard teacher should have just told us the answer after like an hour.Ben>You wrote:

They both work out, lets see what Splinter Strike says....chittydog wrote:

No, it's alot more complicated than that, geometry is a pain in the ass.PspRpg-7 wrote:
Yes yes, but if the man was six feet tall, wouldn't it be just a six foot difference?Plisken wrote:
No,PspRpg-7 wrote:
Wouldn't he have to be thirty feet tall?
eg, go measure the distance around on the inside of a tyre and then measure the outside of it, which is bigger.
You have to add the height of the man to the radius of the earth, and then work out the circumferencePspRpg-7 wrote:

We've already been told it's a human being.The Last Black Winegum wrote:

Put it like this "The man's head of lettuce traveled more than 30 feet more than his feet but he was unharmed."Heavy_Guns_91 wrote:

He's still a human.

Yeah he's a human-being.... a human being who has dropped his shopping....and his lettuce has rolled more than 30 ft down the street.Heavy_Guns_91 wrote:

Plisk, we actually both messed it up. It's 2 x R x pi = C. Pi x R squared = Area.
Well I was close enough, I haven't done geometry in a while give me a break.chittydog wrote:

Don't sweat it, I made the same mistake.
It's actually a well over a hundred miles difference...PspRpg-7 wrote:

Okay guys, I looked through and compiled a list of all the ones we haven't gotten yet:
1. A man's head traveled more than 30ft. more than his feet but he was unharmed. How come?
2. Fred assembled a device containing thousands of moving parts, yet it only took him a few minutes. What is it?
3. Four people enter a store. They spend a hundred dollars each, and in total, they spend 300 dollars. Name the four people.
4. A man in New York witnesses a new report on TV, there was a woman in Colorado that died in an avalanche. The man jumps and and exclaims "That's no accident, she was murdered!" How does the man know? He doesn't know the woman, but it has something to do with his job.
Thanks to the original posters.

Am I wrong on the Lettuce one then?!
We have to wait for the one that posted it to return, but I bet you're rightThe Last Black Winegum wrote:

Could it possibly be that he is having sex, and in a way he is assembling his kid?chittydog wrote:

answer to 1 (i think): some woman gave the man a bj or hand job, which would mean the man's penis went to first base or beyond, since it never said when he stopped, but his feet didnt have sex, therefore, the mans penis went the distance.

lol, we have to wait for Splinter to know for sure, but that's better than anything I've come up with.mcgid1 wrote:

he could be a hitmanPspRpg-7 wrote:
