David was out for a walk when it started to rain. He did not have an umbrella and he wasn't wearing a hat. His clothes were soaked, yet not a single hair on his head got wet. How could this happen?

Was Dave recently in a fire? Or perhaps he was a swimmer?

Sorry if this one was misleading. And Icarus, what do you mean by the "swimmer" thing?

Some swimmers shave off all body hair outside of their suits, so as to decrease water resistance. If you ever watch Olympic swimming, you will often see guys without eyebrows.
