An anonymous user added: "The room was located near a river, when the river flooded, the water level rose and lifted the man to the ceiling, leaving the floor flooded."

Firstly, the first sentence is sufficient cause by itself. It doesn't need the river flooding to happen as well. If this was meant to be an alternative solution, it should be marked as such, not made to look like a continuation of the story.

Secondly, should a river flood, can one in practice seize the opportunity to hang himself? -- Smjg 10:14, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
