this shouldn't have been sticky'ed. i am not being mean but the poll was already like 100 something pages. there is No Way we can get it back to there. but anyway i am still going to try.

Two convicts are locked in a cell.

There is an unbarred window high up in the cell.

No matter if they stand on the bed or one on top of the other they can't reach the window to escape.

They then decide to tunnel out.

However, they give up with the tunnelling because it will take too long.

Finally one of the convicts figures out how to escape from the cell.

What is his plan?

Well it got stickied so it doesn't get lost through all the Penguin threads.

How about they stand on top of the bed and then on top of each other?---thesun :?:

Is there any prison guards that monitor them?---thesun :?:

If the cell was water tight, they could flood the cell (leave the tap running, plug the drain) and float up to the window.

They piled up all the dirt used for the digging, and climbed out the window.

If that is not the correct solution, it should be! Good work.

Or how about that:
In the night, one of the convicts hides under the bed while the other one is asleep.
The other one wakes up in the morning and thinks number one escaped in the night, of course the guard will notice that he's missing too
So the guard comes into the cell, walks towards the window and wonders how number one made it to get that high
That's the moment when number one comes out from under the bed, leaves the cell and slams the cell door shut :lol:

I was thinking something similiar, but there are no prison guards. Talk about a weird prison.---thesun

I have to agree with that one.

They pushed all of their feco matter into a pile and climbed out.
