Brain Teaser/Riddle

Here's a little story for ya'll:

A man is lying face down in the desert with nothing but a pack on his back. There are no footprints in the sand around this man. How did he get there?

You can ask yes or no questions, or maybe someone has heard this before and can tell the answer! Happy thinking!

Sounds like a bad parachuting accident to me.

I believe that the man was in a hot air balloon with others. They were crashing so they decided to get rid of some weight. They took off their clothes but it wasn't helping. Then they decided that one man was going to have to jump out, so they gave him a back pack but said it was a parachute. He jumped out. It was not a parachute. That's why he is on the ebach with nothing was a back pack.

I didn't think "nothing" meant that he was naked! The hot air balloon scenario would explain that though!

Well actually I believe the riddle goes like this.

"A man is found naked lying face down on a beach with a straw in his hand. There are no foot prints, no tire tracks, nothing. How did he get there?"

Lady Pi Phi, you have a whole new scenario! I like the hot air balloon and the beach story! I heard it with the desert and the answer is he was jumping out of a plane and his parachute didn't open.

Edited to add:
Here's a new one. George and Martha are found dead on the living room floor. They are wet and surrounded by broken glass. How did they die?

They are fish, the glass is their broken fish bowl.
DAMN I AM GOOD!

My life can be measured in hours, I serve by being devoured.
Thin, I am quick, Fat, I am slow, Wind is my foe.
