While exploring the wilds of Canada, Wild Man Dave was captured by hostile wood fairies. Brad the powerful chief of the fairies told him he could make one final statement which would determine how he would die. If the statement he made was false, he would be boiled in water. If the statement were true, he would be fried in oil. Wild Man Dave found neither of these options to his liking so he made a statement that got him out of this seemingly impossible situation. What is the one statement he could havenmade?

Two semi-cicles and a circle complete.

Three brothers share a family sport:
A non-stop marathon
The oldest one is fat and short
And trudges slowly on
The middle brother's tall and slim
And keeps a steady pace
The youngest runs just like the wind,
Speeding through the race
"He's young in years, we let him run,"
The other brothers say
"'Cause though he's surely number one,
He's second, in a way."

Between two legs the living flesh ambles, between two buttocks the living flesh trembles, and when it comes to the door, its master knocks.

With pointed fangs it sits in wait
With piercing force it doles out fate
Over bloodless victims proclaiming its might
Eternally joining in a single bite.
What am I?
