A man watches a videotape. Seven days later, he's dead. And no... it's not what you think. |

Did the man do something/ not do something because he watched the tape that caused his death? Was the tape something like "learn to jump from high buildings in seven days"? A video that teaches you something? Or was it a movie? |

If he had not seen the video, would he have died in the same amount of time? Or was the existence of the video enough to result in his death? If it was a different video, would he have died? Had anyone else seen the movie? Would they have likely suffered the same fate if they had? Could the video just as easily have caused him to die six/eight days later? If he had watched the video one day later, would he then have died? More likely in 6 days? 7 days? |

Relevant who or what killed him? Heart attack? A murderer? Heres a possible solution: he is watching a security tape, the the criminals dont like that, so they kill him? |

Was the tape fictional? Or did it document real events? Did it incriminate someone of a crime? Did watching the tape lead the man to come to a false assumption? True assumption? Did the tape result in the man going somewhere? Performing some task? |

Is it relevant that the documentation was on a tape? Could the same story have happened if it was on TV? Or is it relevant that not as many people see it on tape as on TV? Or are the possiblities relevant you have when you watch something on tape like pause-function, etc.? |

Did the task the man performed lead to his murder? Was he mimicking something in the tape? Or did he perform a task in reaction to something that he saw on the tape? Was someone on the tape in danger? If so, were they in danger from someone else? Because of something they were doing themselves? Did the murderer find out from someone else that he had seen the tape? Did he find out well before he committed the murder? Had the murderer previously committed a crime that is relevant to this puzzle? Was it one other person who saw the tape? More than 5? Did any of them get killed? Involved in the murder? |
