Correct!

I'll try this...

1. What does a blind man see,
a deaf man hear,
if you eat it you are sure to die?

2. Uncle Jacob is 65 years old. How many birthdays does he have?

3. You have three oranges and you take away two, how many will you have?

4. What is red and blue, and purple and green?
No one can reach it, not even the queen?

5. A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three rooms. The first is full of raging fires consuming all, the second is full of assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of a pride of wild lions that haven't eaten in 3 months. Which room is safest for him?

remember to quote the question so we know...

1. nothing
2. one
3. 3 or 5 3 if you took your own oranges, 5 if you took someone elses
4. A rainbow
5. The room with the lions, after 3 months they would have all died of starvation (the telling I know of it is 3 years, not months, in theory if it was a big enough pride some may have survived 3 months via canibalisation)

a man leaves his house to go out to a party and on the way out the downstairs door he turns off the light. Some time after the party in the wee hours of the morning he returns to his house and turns on the light. He looks around out of the upstairs window and then jumps to his death.

What happened to cause him to commit suicide?

Through the doorway. There are no doors, just the opening.

The other answer to the how do you get out of the room is.
Bang your head against the wall until you get a saw.
Saw the table in half, put them together to get a hole.
Crawl through the hole to escape.
Shout until you're horse, then get on the horse and ride away.
