Transcript of “Chimney Riddle”

Grant, I have a brain buster for you.

Let her rip.

Okay, what can go up a chimney down but cannot go down a chimney up?

I don’t know, what?

An umbrella.

How big is your chimney, really?

You’re just assuming like some standard size of a chimney, but if it had a really big chimney, the umbrella would have no problem being up and down at the same time.

That’s you. You always find the exceptions and the outliers.
