Answers:
He puts in in a box where the diagonal is 14 feet but the sides are only 10 feet!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
he can put it in a 10 m x 9!.8 m box on a diagonal because 10 squared plus 9!.8 squared = 196ish squared!. The root of 196 is 14 which is the hypotenuse of the box!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
He gets off this bus and waits for another bus that actually allowes poles like that
