How can a Fish Drown? Wouldn't it have Suffocated as couldn't breath in Water?

Is this a riddle too? the fish suffocating?? :o

11. temperature? stocks and shares? the sun?

I think that "The temperature" would be he right answer as the Stairs on an Escalator move.

Also What about Sound Volume! You turn the Radio Volume up or Down, but doesn't move, does it?

New One:- A horse travels a certain distance each day. Strangely enough, two of its legs travel 30 kilometers each day and the other two legs travel nearly 31 kilometers. It would seem that two of the horse's legs must be a kilometer ahead of the other two legs, but of course this is not the case. Since the horse is quite normal, how is this situation possible?

it's going round in a circle so the outside legs are travelling further.

What do the following words have in common?

age, blame, curb, dance, evidence, fence, gleam, harm, interest, jam, kiss, latch, motion, nest, order, part, quiz, rest, signal, trust, use, view, win, x-ray, zone

It is not that they are in alphabetical order!

I have no idea on this... is it related to the number of letters in each word?

Is it that when they're all put together in a list, it's really difficult to see a connection between them? :D

All of them can be either a verb or a noun.

Now then, how many animals did Moses take on the ark?

a male & a female of every species.

Moses didn't take any animals onto the Ark.

i thought the animals went 2x2?

yeah, but it was Noah who took them, not Moses :p

i think i need glasses. i didn't even spot such an obvious mistake.

it wasn't a mistake - it was deliberate and designed to catch you out exactly as it did :)

Whilst I was engaged in sitting I spied the dead carrying the living. Whats the Answer?

the Answer? I didn't even see the Question!

There's nothing that google couldn't solve. The answer is Ship.
Not sure if I get it though... :confused:

engaged in sitting... I couldn't get public toilets out of my head!

the ship must be the dead - dead wood?

is it a lighthouse?

is what a lighthouse?

the answer to gadgets question? Whilst I was engaged in sitting I spied the dead carrying the living. a lighthouse sits on the edge of a cliff & would spy boats carrying passengers

a lighthouse is an inanimate object - it can't see things.

i didn't know we had to be exact about what way we understand things.

the riddle though implies that the watcher is living

a lighthouse keeper then?

possibly... I don't get this one at all :p

where's gadget at? we need him to give us a clue.

Another answer is a coach or wagon, but that requires horses. A chair only holds the person, a wheelchair or pram needs to be pushed, a travois, rickshaw or parasail must be pulled, and a stretcher or palanquin has to be carried. Hot air balloons or hang gliders are reasonable, but are rarely made entirely of dead materials such as wood or cotton cloth; they usually contain metal or manmade fibers like nylon. A wooden ship, held together with wooden pegs, using cotton canvas sails, pine pitch caulking and hemp ropes is ideal." says this page here: http://www.contestcen.com/ans00026.htm

maybe it's one of those dude's that sit up in the bird's nest on a wooden ship watching for stuff & shout "ahoy" alot?

Yep N/A. Wooden Ship!

Here's a new one for you to figure out:-

It is greater than God and more evil than the devil. The poor have it, the rich need it and if you eat it you'll die. What is it?

what has the power to kill from the ocean but never be seen?
