1. Would he have commited suicide if it wasn't a tunnel, but as dark as a tunnel? Maybe. Depends on..
2. Did whatever happened at location B make him scared of the dark? No
3. So, did what happened at location B affect him, that is, he was fine while travelling from A to B?
The fact that he committed suicide on his way back, but NOT on his way to B, was caused by what happened at B, if that's what you mean
4. Did he have bad thoughts about the dark after the happenings at B? No
5. Did he not want to go back to A anymore? No (he wanted to go back)

Wild off-shoot thought that just sits in my head and screams to be put here: shattered glasses. Did he shatter his glasses?

Marinus · Post by **Marinus** » Sun Nov 30, 2008 9:31 am

No, there are no glasses involved

Was he a religious man?

Did he commit a sin at point B?

Did he believe God punishes us for some sins by making us blind?

When he went in the tunnel, did he think he was blind and was being punished for his sin?

Did he feel bad about his sins and commit suicide?

Was point B a gambling casino

Dizzy, good to see you here again

[Edit].................................................................

About the puzzle; no religion, sins, God or casino involved, but indeed, he was thinking that he was blind

Now guess what happened at point B

Ok, I'll have to think some more.....(that'll take some time).

--- Back To The Puzzle:

1. Was the man living life through the fast lane?

(Kidding!)
2. Did the train light make him think he was blind? If so, did he want to get to a safe place in time and he ran and it killed him?

1. Was the man living life through the fast lane? (Kidding!)

Well if it's kidding it doesn't matter but I don't know what that expression means.

2. Did the train light make him think he was blind? No, the darkness of the tunnel did.

If so, did he want to get to a safe place in time and he ran and it killed him? No, he was in the train (in the tunnel) and he committed suicide

Did he commit suicide because he thought he was blind

Marinus · Post by **Marinus** » Sun Nov 30, 2008 10:23 pm

Dizzy, you're a genius!

Yes!

Dizzy1 · Post by **Dizzy1** » Sun Nov 30, 2008 10:27 pm

Yes...half genius, half walrus.

So now we still don't know what happened at point B

Right

I was thinking that, but I didn't know what happened at pt. B so I didn't post it.

You mean something like a mermaid?

Of course, I understand. And yes, the final question is what happened at point B. Why he didn't commit suicide on the way to B.

Does the reason he didn't commit suicide on the way to point B have to do with the darkness in the tunnel?

No, because the darkness in the tunnel was both times the same, when he went from A to B and when he went back.

The difference is: On his way back, he was thinking that he was blind. But on his way to, he didn't think that.

That's a big hint isn't it

Dizzy1 · Post by **Dizzy1** » Mon Dec 01, 2008 12:37 am

Was he intoxicated?

Did he have his hands over his eyes?

Marinus · Post by **Marinus** » Mon Dec 01, 2008 1:03 am

I don't know how to make it more obvious.

He was not just thinking that he was blind, because he knew for sure!

Qloof234 · Post by **Qloof234** » Mon Dec 01, 2008 1:03 am

Seeing as it says his vision is not that good...

Is Point B dark like the tunnel? Or is there proper lighting?

If Point B is dark, did he think he was blind because someone at Point B made him think he was blind (thus why it was dark)?

A bit of a stretch, but my nickname isn't the overthinker for nothing

Posting the same time.

Another guess?

jdl · Post by **jdl** » Mon Dec 01, 2008 1:25 am

Did he know for sure that he is blind? (If he is anyway...)

Yes, when he went to point B he was blind. But on his way back, he just thought he was blind, because of the darkness of the tunnel.

Qloof234 · Post by **Qloof234** » Mon Dec 01, 2008 1:34 am

On the way to Point B, was he asleep?

If so, when he woke up was he blinded?

If so to only the first question(

), was he blinded at Point B somehow?

EDIT: Fixed a mistake I made

1. Did what happened at B make him not blind anymore?
2. Did he think that life was over if he was blind again?

Marinus · Post by **Marinus** » Mon Dec 01, 2008 1:45 am

Qloof, no he wasn't asleep, he was blind, so he didn't notice the darkness of the tunnel

mqdar wrote:1. Did what happened at B make him not blind anymore?

1 Exactly!

He went to the hospital for an eye-surgery.
2 In a manner of speaking. He thought he was blind again, and he was so sad about it, that he committed suicide.

Congratulations Darshan!
