Ok, another easy one, while people ponder my hard one
A large sheet of paper is 0.1mm thick. A man amuses himself by tearing it in half and putting both pieces together, and then tearing those into four sheets, and repeating the process until he has done it twenty-five times.
How high is the stack of paper now?
A) As thick as a book
B) As high as a man
C) As high as a house
D) As high as a mountain

Are the aount of tears growing expodentially, for example 2,4,8,16,32 and so on?
you tear, and then put the paper on top of each other and tear again.
A machine that makes thread doubles the amount of thread it contains once a minute. After 60 minutes, the machine has filled completely. At what time was the machine half full?

To lavish praise upon this title, the assumption of a common plateau between player and game must be made. I won't open my unworthy mouth.

Very good!
Was that an "I'm clever" laugh?

In answer to the paper one.
0.1x2^25 = 3355443.2mm
So the answer would be ~3355.44M
That's about as tall as mount wildhorn in the bernese alps, so I would say mountain.
Am I right???
