The answer to How can this happen(no trick stupid answer) Hint: Its all the same?
There is a man who has no eye's, BECAUSE HE HAS ONE EYE
He see's an orchard that has no tree's. BECAUSE THERE IS ONLY ONE TREE
He see's a tree that has no apple's, BECAUSE THERE IS ONLY ONE APPLE
He picks an apple and none are left. HE PICKED THE LAST APPLE AND NONE ARE LEFT
How can this happen.
The answer is, this riddle has nothing to do with a man, an orchard, a tree or apples.
It has do do with plurality. Each sentence is plural. tree's eye's etc. Ergo:
There is a man who has one eye.
Who see's only one apple tree left in an orchard, with one apple remaining on that last tree. So he picked it thereby leaving none.

He only has one eye, therefore you cant say he has eye'S (coz theres only one)
same thing with the orchard, theres only one tree, so technically there aren't any treeS. Same withe the apple.
dont really get the last bit though =/

you used 's for eveything but there was no ownership ove anything at all, if there are no apples there or NO apples not 30 5 or 1 and same with the others
