There were more than 10 pears there. Nine men took a pear that was hanging lower. Only one could reach one of the 10 pears that were hanging higher?
Only thing I could think of...

nicely, The king and queen anly stayed for one night. So perchance the three human beings got here and left after the king and queen have been already long previous? this is extremely problematical! besides the incontrovertible fact that that's a sturdy riddle!
