I'm asking this again, since the last time no one got the answer totaly correct, only about two people got 33% of the riddle...
Two men and a blind guy walk into a pitch black room full of black hats. All of the hats are black exept for two which are red. Each man takes a hat and leaves the place into daylight. The two men who arn't blind look at the other two people.
One guy says, "I can't see my hat but I can see what color your hats are!"
Another guy says, "I can't see my hat but I can see what color your hats are!"
The blind guy says, "I can't see your hats at all, but I know what color of hat I'm wearing!"
How does the blind guy know what color of hat he's wearing? What color of hat is he wearing?

NONONO!! A lot of you know what color the blind guy is wearing, but you don't know HOW! There is no grammer in this puzzle, it's just logic! All of you got it wrong! I'm not leaving anything out! The room is pitch black! No one can see ANYTHING in there they can only feel the hats! The blind man is NOT color blind, he is completly blind! When I say grey I don't mean black!
You've got it all wrong! If you want to know the answer just contact me!

the blind man knows he is wearing a black hat because, both of the men that can see can't decide what color their own hat is therefore it is impossible for both red hats to be showing for either of those men that can see. which means that the blind man is visible by both the seeing men, and is wearing a black hat
i know i'm not explaining it well, i'm trying but i hope you can follow the logic in what i did say

The blind man is wearing BLACK hat.
Reason:
First man looks at the others: If he saw two red hats, he would have known that he is wearing a black hat, since there are only 2 red hats
Now, second man looks: He already knows that both he and the blind man cannot be wearing red hats, since the first man failed to identify his own hat color.
If the second man saw the blind man wearing a red hat, he would have been able to identify his own hat color as black, since both of them can't be wearing red hats.
So, the blind man is sure that he is wearing a BLACK hat.

The only color you can only see is red in pure dark
so the two men said I know what the other people's hat's are because they can see eachothers and so he can see the other guy that can see is wearing a hat because it is RED and the blind guy doesn't look like he's wearing anything because he's whering a black one. So the blind guy was listening to their conversation and so he knew that he took a black one.

Black
Because they two men both said color instead of colors. The first man said colr to the blind and other.
other said color to the first and the blind so that means none of them could have red hat's since [for instance] the blind man and the other were wearing red the first would have a black hat and the other would have said colors. but that's not true, they are all wearing black including the blind man.

well there is a possibility that the two men took the red hats and that the blind guy for being blind had higher possibilities of getting a black one since the store was full of black hats. so that is how he might know.

well the guy was obviously doing some woodwork and he lopped of his penis with a coping saw. Because hes a bit of a handyman he had spent the whole day working, naked, under the seductive presence of his employer. Asked if he would like a frothy coffee his attention slipped and so did the saw. Being in such an environment there's alot of sawdust. Searching in vain in the thick undergrowth of sawdust he couldn't find his penis. So if he would have seen the sawdust, he'd had known where his penis had fallen and he would of got lucky with his employer.

The blind man is only colour blind, so he can tell that the 2 men aren't wearing black hats.

The blind man is holding the hat which he brought out of the dark room, and he is wearing another hat which he put on at 6 a.m. when he left the house to catch the bus.

ok here goes the blind guy is wearing a black hat cause the other 2 guys were wearing hats already before they went into the room and they were red.If the room was black and to hats were red how would you know.It seems to me you are leaving something out.
