Schroeder 0 #32 June 9, 2003 QuoteHow did he get hung up there? So, how did he get up there? Onto the top of a 21' block of dry ice? THERE lies the mystery. Sure as hell wasn't with a 4' peice of rope. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

riddler 0 #36 June 9, 2003 It's not that, it's just unlikely that a 21' block of dry ice could fit through the door. And even more unlikely that he could climb it. And no way in Hell could he move it himself - too heavy too much bulk. Plus with all the smoke vapor spilling out the door, you would figure it out when you opened. The door on the ceiling is far more likely Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hookitt 1 #38 June 9, 2003 How did the Dry ice get in there? How did he get on top of it?My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhillyKev 0 #39 June 9, 2003 QuoteHow did the Dry ice get in there? How did he get on top of it? He had blocks of it delivered and stacked it up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sfc 1 #40 June 9, 2003 so the delivery man didn't ask, "hey why do you want this pile of dry ice stacked up under that noose?", this doesn't sound very credible. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhillyKev 0 #41 June 9, 2003 duh.....the noose wasn't there yet....it was only a 4' rope, how could he have tied the noose up there BEFORE he got the dry ice. Go on...try and find a plot hole....muhahahahaha. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jib 0 #42 June 9, 2003 1) He scurried up the vent close to the floor up to the one in the ceiling, put the noose around his neck and jumped. 2) He turned the room upside down, like the house in Scooby Doo! I could say he had flubber in his shoes, but that wouldn't be realistic. -------------------------------------------------- the depth of his depravity sickens me. -- Jerry Falwell, People v.

bch7773 0 #44 June 9, 2003 QuoteActually, that's the only other acceptable alternative solution What about he filled the room with acetone (nail polish remover), swam to the top, tied the noose, and then the acetone all evaporated, (and acetone doesn't leave a wet spot after it evaporates). i think thats just as plausible as the dry ice.

FallRate 0 #48 June 10, 2003 If there was only one door and it was locked, I'm guessing he wouldn't have made it through the stacking process. He would have been unconscious long before making it to the top. FallRate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flypunk 0 #50 June 10, 2003 The door is at the top of the room, lets say 18 feet of the ground so he tied the rope, jumped and then closed the door, either that or barred it and stood on the bar, while he proceeded to jump? ... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
