imaghost: The wise man said he would give the winner the wisemans fortune, right?

no. The wiseman told them something that made them jump on the camels and ride as fast as they could to the destination.

spoiler:
Simple. Whatever horse crosses last wins. So they swap horses to make their opponent's horse (the one they are riding) finish first.
 
An Arab sheik is getting very old and must will his fortune to one of his two sons.

He makes a proposition. His two sons will ride their camels in a race, and whichever camel crosses the finish line LAST will win the fortune for its owner.

During the race, the two brothers wander aimlessly for days, neither willing to cross the finish line. In desperation, they ask a wise man for advice.

He tells them something; then the brothers leap onto the camels and charge toward the finish line.

What did the wise man say?

If you already know this one, DO NOT put in a spoiler, only post that you know it, it gives people a chance to think hard about it, knowing that the answer is not there.

they both get on the other's camel and race to the finish line because it is whoever's CAMEL crosses the finish line last gets the fortune

Right you are, except for one thing. Camels aren't horses lol

Another riddle

A guy wakes up one day to discover he did not wind his clock. This is the only clock he has and there is no way to tell what time it is. Later that day he leaves to go to his friend's house, stays the night, comes back and knows the exact time. He does not have a watch and he did not take the clock with him.

Keep in mind, he did not know the time before he left, and this is not a modern time, so there are no cars or anything digital.
 
a man rides into town on Tuesday, stays two nights, and leaves on Saturday. How is this possible?




NOTE: he cannot change time/names of the days of the weeks or anything else ridiculous


His horse is called Tuesday.

I'm awesome at riddles.

EDIT: Oh..the answer's already been given..
 
And now, the ultimate riddle:

Which side of a chicken has most feathers?
 
alright, here's one...

You stand at a fork in the road. Next to each of the two forks, there stands a guard. You know the following things: 1. One path leads to Paradise, the other to Death. From where you stand, you cannot distinguish between the two paths. Worse, once you start down a path, you cannot turn back. 2. One of the two guards always tells the truth. The other guard always lies. Unfortunately, it is impossible for you to distinguish between the two guards.
You have permission to ask one guard one question to ascertain which path leads to Paradise. Remember that you do not know which guard you're asking -- the truth-teller or the liar -- and that this single question determines whether you live or die. The question is: What one question asked of one guard guarantees that you are led onto the path to Paradise, regardless of which guard you happen to ask?
 
As I was going to St Ives,
I met a man with seven wives,
each wife had seven sacks,
each sack had seven cats,
each cat had seven kits.
Kits, cats, sacks, and wives.

How many people went to St. Ives.


My friend gave me that one... it's actually really easy...


You feed it, it lives, you give it something to drink, it dies. What is it?
Another simple one.

There was a guy who was being judged for a crime. The judge said that tomorow, the man would have to make a statement. If it was true, he would get 4 years in prison and if it was false, then he would get 6 years. The next day, the judge released him of all charges with no sentence. What did he say?

Just thought of another that I got off of the internet a while ago...

what occurs once in a minute,twice in a moment, but never in an hour?
