Unsolved Riddle?
Bob was staying with Joe and Sue. Bob typically was the repairman of the group, constantly fixing anything that went wrong. Susan and Joe tended to work from their place.
Eventually, the strain of living together with nobody leaving very often started to get to them. Bob was definitely getting on both Joe and Sue's nerves. Sue started hiding his tools on him. Then she took out her frustration on Bob by cutting a frown-face into the back of his work uniform. It made her smile and she stopped worrying about Bob. Joe, on the other hand, adjusted several of Bob's tools. Then Joe started waking Bob up periodically just to annoy him.
One day, Bob planned to go for a walk and died while walking despite being in perfect health. He was not poisoned, nor was he struck by anything or attacked by anyone. Shortly afterward, Sue walked to the exact same spot and was unharmed, although conditions had not changed. What killed Bob? Who killed him?
It's been nearly two hours and nobody solved this, so I thought I'd repost it. And just so you know, the tools were 'adjusted' not rewired or modified outside of manufacturer's norms. And conditions did not change between when Bob died and when Sue walked to the same spot. Hopefully someone will solve this today, if not, I'll post the answer in six hours.
Nope, no heart attacks, ulcers, etc. Perfect health.
Creative response that Bob was wearing the shirt when Sue cut it. But no, bleeding to death before he went for his walk doesn't qualify as perfect health.
X-Ray is a GENIUS!!! That is absolutely correct! They are all astronauts. You can modify the conditions from there, but that's all you need to know to solve it, congratulations! I'll mark it as correct as soon as the four hours is up.

All three were astronauts. They were living on the moon.
They were all living with eachother (in their capsule) and getting on eachothers nerves.
Sue cut a frown face into Bob's space suit.
Disoriented from constantly being woken up and thinking it was his shift, Bob put on this torn space suit and went outside.
He suffocated because the air escaped.
Sue survived because she went by with her space suit on even though outside conditions had not changed.
Joe adjusted Bob's oxygen tank (one of his tools) to not allow him enough oxygen. Bob suffocated.

Eliminating everything not essential. Bob goes for walk and dies. Shortly afterward, Sue walks in same spot and is unharmed.
If Bob is taller than Sue and Bob is taking his walk along a narrow cliff path, he could encounter a outcropping that he must duck down to pass. He tries to duck down and loses his balance and falls to his death. Sue, on the other hand, could be a child and shorter and would easily walk under the outcropping.
Probably not the answer, but it is a possibility.

recap ----- bob died of exhaustion from Joe waking him up periodically just to annoy him.
