A man is lying dead in the middle of a big empty field. There's an unopened package next to him. Nobody else is around, and there are no footprints anywhere.
What happened to him?
No footprints means he didn't walk there.
So how else do you end up in the middle of a field? Look up.
The package is a parachute that never opened.
He was skydiving. The package is his parachute, and it never opened. He fell straight into the field, which is why there aren't any footprints.
