Wrong so far.
But perhaps it was all a case of the wrong choice of words here...
People, I said same DATE.
A date is INCLUSIVE of day, month AND year.
For example, when somebody asks for my DATE of birth, you give him the day, month and year, not so?
People, no offense, but THINK, nah man! Allyuh disappointing me. :?


All right, I'll break it down for you again:
Stan and Dan are brothers.
They were born on the same day, of the same month, of the same year [You happy now?  :-x ]
They were children of the same parents...SAME MOTHER, SAME FATHER
They live in the same household.
They look very much identical [alike].
But they are NOT twins. Why?


P.S.: Here's a hint: Time has nothing to do with the answer.

Non-identical twins are still twins none the less. That leaves the possibility of the multiple birth being more than two. Arriving at a specific answer is impossible if this is the case. It could be anything from triplets and up.


You don't know it, scaR, but you are very close...so close, you're on FIRE!!! Hit it home and you've got it solved....

All righty then....
The reason that Stan and Dan are NOT twins is because:

THEY ARE TWO OF A SET OF TRIPLETS.

Hey, can't be a twin if you are one of three, right?  :)
Anyway, I've got a doozy of a riddle to pose to you all. This one really intends to be a lesson in the art of solving certain riddles.
Anyway, here goes:

Bob is sitting on a bench.
Bob and the bench are completely encased in a steel box.
They are completely surrounded by four steel walls, a steel ceiling and a steel floor [just to give you an idea that they're covered on all angles.]
There are NO doors, NO windows, NO visible portals leading to the outside world from within the box.
Bob has nothing on his possession other than the clothes on his back and the bench beneath him.
Bob manages to escape.
How did he escape?

This one will have you scratching your head for a while. I leave you now with two quotes, one from yours truly, and another from master sleuth himself, Sherlock Holmes.

"When all of the possible has been eliminated, the only thing left that is possible is the impossible." -Sherlock Holmes
"Sometimes, using logic to solve mysteries will not give you the answer. Therefore, you should try what is left-the illogical, and you may find your answer!" -New Era Outlaw.

perhaps he was able to make a vortex using only the power of his mind
or
he sacrificed the bench and his clothes to the uh the ghost of Houdini and then found out the way to escape

that has no logic at all, BOOYAH

Dude, you totally ripped off Sherlock's quote.
Well the possible or logical  question is to ask you if the walls are sealed together in some way. I  mean they could just be laid there and  fitted. Just ruling out all possibilities. Nice riddle.

the prophesy is about judgement

we are not juded by God himself at our death
we judge ourselves as he confronts us with our lives
if we sinned in our life on earth, the past, then we would feel the fire of hell

(it makes a nce analogy of such if I am wrong though)

LOL@ripoff.
Just thought that quote would be appropriate for a riddle like this.
And you do raise a valid point, I didn't exactly say they were sealed together...but I think it's understood, as it won't make for a very good riddle if that was the answer. My bad....I was really supposed to mention that, but I couldn't find the right words. Ah well....

Oh, one more thing, people.
I just realise that if I post the answer to the riddle here on the forums, it's not going to make a lick of sense. The answer is a virtual 'play on words', and in order for you to really get this one, you'll have to ask me to tell you the answer. Sorry for that inconvenience, but you know what they say, 'Words travel fast'.

P.S.: LOL@Bob dying to escape.
Actually, you won't believe the number of people, including myself, actually thought that this was the answer. Well, assume here that Bob escapes alive. Keep those guesses coming! :)

you come to a fork in the road and on each side is a statue. There is a sign telling you that in one direction lies eternal bliss/money/whatever you want and the other direction lies hell

the statues are talking statues

and one tells the truth, but one will always lie, and there is no way to distinguish between the two, because they are identical

so, in order to find out which way to go to find eternal bliss or watever the hell you want, what question would you ask the statue? You may ask one question and one question only to only one statue.



Have fun :lol:
