This is the best riddle I know...

In a room there's a bed, on the bed a small man lays dead, on the floor is a gun covered in shavings. in the corner of the room there is a stick. Another man opens the door, looks into the room and starts laughing, and closes the door again.
Firstly who is the dead person, and who is the 2nd person. Why is the dead person dead. how did they die?

Ask any questions you want.. ill respond with yes or no if u need help

Wow Bomber, I am impressed, that had people going for awhile... bit of useless trivia that most people don't seem to know: Marvel Mythology is very loosely based on Norse/Germanic mythology... the problem is they changed up the traditional mythology up so much that the stories aren't even remotely similar (best example: Loki from Marvel was a frost giant, Loki from Norse Mythology was the god of fire as much as the god of tricks)

Ok my morning coffee is starting to sink in...

My initial thought is that there is not enough information to determine who the dead person is (that or I'm not as awake as I thought I was)
