Exercise for the Brain

Okay, you can't just be this fabulous, fit, tuned up like a fast car body with a limp brain. Gotta exercise the mind as well, okay? So here's a little smorgasbord of brain teasers to stimulate the old brain cells and take them out for a jog.
Figure them out, and answer in the comments section. Try not to peek at anyone else's answers. Be sure to answer in the correct order (1,2,3,4,5). I will give the answers in a couple days. Some might seem easy, but careful! They could be trickier than you think! Have fun!




1- What object has keys that open no locks, space but no room, and you can enter but not go in?



2- What is so fragile that when you say its name you break it?




3- Forward I am heavy, backwards I am not.

 What am I?




4- What can run but never walks,

  has a mouth but never talks,

 has a head but never weeps,

 has a bed but never sleeps?




5- What do bullet proof vests, fire escapes, windshield wipers, and laser printers  all have in common?

Okay, guys. I see you were ALL OVER this quiz! lmao

here are the answers in order:

1: a keyboard

2: silence

3: a river

4: the word ton

And #5 is a trick question!

5: All those items were invented by a woman! :)
Almost not fair, THAT question!

Next time I'll come back with only one or two riddles/questions. Then maybe more of you will take the time to answer. I know I wasn't crazy about taking tests in school, so I'll be sure to keep it brief!
Thanks, Oscar, for participating!

I've been racking my brain, Oscar, and I can't figure it out.

It's bigger than the universe
Dead people eat it
If live people eat it, they die?

the only thing I could think of was dirt, or carbon dioxide (Duh!)

Please post your answer!

thanks!
