BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 / Sherlock's Wrong Answers Club

**Posted by sherlockskitty** May 21, 2012 9:33 pm

Ok this is a game of wrong answers. someone asks a Sherlock related question, and then the next poster gives a wrong and/or silly answer. The game continues as each new poster posts a sherlockian question, ok? The questions can be taken from the canon stories, or from the filmed versions of Sherlock Holmes (such as our own favorite one here) The answers can be as silly as you want them to be. Example----

Q: Why did Sherlock leave his riding crop in the Mortuary?
A: Because he wanted to see what the dead man would do with it.

Got it? Ok I'll start. The game is ON!!

Question: How did Sherlock fake his own death?

**Posted by Tantalus** May 24, 2012 8:26 pm

A: He put a rubber ball in his armpit. At just the right moment, it inflated like an airbag, thus breaking Sherlock's fall and not his neck, spine, etc. He then jumped into the garbage truck, which was being driven by Molly, wearing a fake Sherlock mask. Mycroft was on the bicycle, and didn't really mean to bump into Watson. Moriarty's body was also thrown from the roof (by Mrs. Hudson), but was rejected by the morgue because of unpaid bills--hence, the IOU. Elementary.

Q: Why did Sherlock have a skull on his mantelpiece?
