Actually, that reminds me of another stupid riddle: You are locked out of your house. All the doors are locked, all the windows are locked, the chimney is too small to squeeze down, and no-one has a key. What do you do?
Ans: Start running around the house, and keep doing it until you're all in.
And the inverse: Imagine you're in a box. The walls are made of unbreakable mesh, the floor and ceiling are solid metal, the hinges and lock on the door are outside where you can't reach them, and built so strongly you couldn't break them anyway, and you have no tools. How do you get out?
