Unresolved suicidal ideations? (Flippantly suggested, of course.)

DarkWolf OP February 28th, 2016

I've heard multiple very good and 'out-of-the-box' answers. But the original answer to this riddle is actually that he walked into a tunnel, so he needs to run towards the train the get out of the tunnel first. Shoutout to @Winterlieshere for getting that answer first smileyyes

I have memories, but none of my own,
whatever's on my inside is what is shown.
If I'm ever different it's because you changed me,
I feel like a decoration, here for you to arrange me.

What am I?

Question: Two men, Watson and Holmes, are out in the extremely dry forest. They are completely surrounded by a large forest fire on one side and a dangerous cliff on the other. The wind is blowing the forest fire towards them and the cliff. The fire will reach them in about one day.

Holmes turns to Watson, "I have matches, berries, and enough water for a day. We aren't going to die." How can they avoid getting swallowed up by the forest fire?

@DarkWolf

With the matches they have, they can make a controlled fire. With it, they can burn some parts of the forest to make an open field. That way, there won't be anything for the fire to burn and it will naturally get extinguished.
