It seems like no one dares to ask the final question or to guess anything...

Should we ask for a hint? (I'm not asking for a hint, I'm suggestion asking for a hint.)

I was thinknig more of a ski mask to keep his face warm as he made the long walk/bicycle ride/motorcycle ride to the office. A helmet wouldn't exactly qualify as a mask... would it?

And...

Yeah, you guys failed this round.

'He was on an airplane to get to work. The mask was a face mask to keep the light out while he slept'

Theres your answer, you may all slap youselves with obviousness now.

Puzzle 13: The fish. (50 points)

'A man saw a fish and because of that he shot himself. Why?'

Big point value this time

Was he treading water in the ocean, saw a dead bitten-in-half bloody mess of a fish, and deduced that there must be sharks in the water? Better to shoot yourself than to be eaten by a shark.
