Riddle

I won't break if you throw me off from the highest building but I will break if you place me in the ocean. What am I?

Choose an answer

A.Glass
B.China plate
C.Balloon
D.Tissue
Hint: It's a word with 6 letters, starting with "T".

Answer

Tissue

Why this is the answer

A tissue is so light that dropping it from a great height doesn't damage it, but placing it in water, like the ocean, quickly dissolves and breaks it apart.
