Title: Train Suicide
Post by TrophyBoy on Oct 1st, 2006, 6:24pm
This is the first time I post here... so sorry if you've heard this riddle befor. Anyway here goes.

This guy enters a hospital. Inside he has surgery, and right after that he goes to a train station and takes a train. Inside that train he suicides.

Why did he killed himself?

PS. The way he kills himself is irrelevant.

It was going to a [hide]concentration camp or something. [/hide] I know I guessed that answer before, and it was wrong, but I can't remember the right answer.

All these riddles have someone dying. How morbid.

[hide]His surgery failed and he is going to die soon anyway. He wants to rid himself of the suffering and agonizing pain he's going through.[/hide]

If the surgery is being done on him...
[hide]How is he then taking the train right after?
So, he is a surgeon. When he got on the train, he realized he made a serious mistake... left a sponge inside the patient. When the mistake comes out, his life is over anyway so he kills himself. [/hide]

Yeah, it's morbid.

If only he had been more patient..

hint: [hide]the train went through a tunnel[/hide]

hint2: [hide]for some obscure reason there were no lights in the tunnel[/hide]

hint3: [hide]The man just had eye surgery[/hide]

hint4: [hide]Actually, the surgery ought to have been done weeks earlier; but the bandages were removed today, and finally he could see again.[/hide]

hint5: [hide]This riddle has been posted several times before. It's so far fetched I'd never be able to guess[/hide]

answer: [hide]The man thought he went blind again, and rather than give it a few minutes, he killed himself. Nevermind how he didn't notice they went into a tunnel. Or why there were no light in the tunnel. Or in the train. Or why nobody stopped him. Or a thousand other things that just don't add up.[/hide]

But if he just got out of surgery, how did he kill himself?

Because he probably was given a cane or something.

OH! They left a knife sticking in him in case he wanted to kill himself. Yes, that's it.
