Log Man: Creative problem solving with creative approach

Another creative problem solving exercises which can be answered by creative thinking techniques and creative approach. Take a look at the following picture. There is a man holding a log of wood in his hand. What happens to the log when the man opens his hand?

Answer: It depends on where the man is. If he’s standing outside, the brick will fall. But, if he’s underwater maybe the brick is not dense enough for it to fall. If he’s in outerspace, the brick may just not do anything. Same is true if he’s lying on his bed. If he’s hanging upside down, the brick will appear to shoot up. How many more possibilities can you think of.
