I remember this being told in old joke books, but this is also a good version of it.
Riddle from Reddit 9 years ago:
A man went out drinking all night. He came home and before going to sleep he turned off the light. He awoke the next morning and went outside, and there were dead people all around. What happened? Yes or no questions please :) Good luck!
Did he live in Manhattan and was it 9/11?
That escalated quickly
No, those descended quickly.
He lives in the back of a cyanide factory and in his drunken stupor accidentally hit the emergency release switch instead.
In the event of an emergency, release the cyanide that will kill everyone.
Makes sense.
It’s obvious when you think about it
