6 men are going to the same place, at the same time.
It's pouring rain.
5 of the men are traveling at the same speed with rain-gear and boots and the like, to keep dry.
The 6th man is moving slower than the rest, and has no rain-gear on whatsoever.
All of the 6 men arrive to the destination at the same exact time, the 5 with the rain-gear, are completely drenched, the 6th man, however, is completely dry.
How is this possible?

OK the answer!!!
The 5 men were carrying the 6th man who was in a coffin.
how's that :)

nicotinequeen, the moving slower part refers to the 6th man being dead, hence not moving. So in that sense he is slower :)

I think the sixth man lived on the other side of town and closer to the meeting place. It wasn't raining where he was. He walked, the others walked faster to avoid the rain, but they ultimately arrived at the same place at the same time.

How can the man in the coffin be going to the same place slower if the other 5 are carrying him? If the referential for speed is the ground, the speed is the same for everyone.
If "same place" is to be taken in a metaphysic sense, if anything, he moved there faster!

Or, like proven on Mythbusters, people walking get less wet than people running in the rain. Interesting, huh?

If they were in town and in a line he'd be under the roofs edge.
