Cool Riddles

I don't know if you guys have heard these but here goes:

1) A father and his son was on there way to a base ball game. After the game, the father and son was in a accident. A very bad car accident. the father dies on scene, but the little boy was rushed to the ER. The doctors and nurses was to ready take him to OR. When the little boy arrived the doctor says: "I can't operate." He's my Son. How can that Be?

2) A man live on the 1th floor and has a job on the 9th floor, but every morning when he gets up at 5:00am he goes to the elevator and press the 4th floor , and gets off. Then he walks the stairs the rest of the way to work. Why?


3) A man was taking a trip from the U.S to Canada on a plane, the plane blew up on the boarder line. Where did they bury the man?

a very one one:
4) A man had a bag of corn, a fox ,and a duck and he had to get all three across a river on a boat. But only one at a time. Which one did he take first and so on?


I know these riddles might be old or even corny but I had to try? Let the ones that don't know have a chance.
I will post the answer later.

The 4th one is very complicated..... Let's see:
1- the man takes the duck over leaving the fox and the corn, then
2- he goes back after the fox and brings him over leaving the corn, then
3- he takes the duck back with him and leaves the duck and takes the corn over
4 - then he goes back and gets the duck
Then all 3 are on the other side of the river....

The one that has me stumped is the man living on the 1th floor??

I remember the elevator one finally. The man is a midget or dwarf and can't reach the buttons above the 4th floor.

The airplaine crash: the man isn't going to be buried because he survived.

Okay You guys got them all

1) the boy's OR doctor was is mother. When we think Doc, we think man.
2)yes, the man was a midget and could not reach pass the 4th floor.
3)you can't bury a man if he burns up in a plane that blew up.
4) First the man gets the duck, then goes and get the bag of corn, takes the duck back with him and then pick up the fox. Take the fox over to where the bag of corn is. Then he goes back for the duck. Fox is left with the corn because foxes don't eat corn.
