The car is a convertable, and the top is down

A man lives in a big tower with no windows. The bathroom is at the very top, and his bedroom is at the very bottom. One day he goes up to take a bath. While he was filling the tub, his cat chases a mouse by the door and accidently slams it shut. The guy tries to open the door, but it is stuck. He then tries to shut off the water, but the knob breaks off, and the water won't shut off. The tub begins to overflow and slowly fill the room. How does he survive?

its been a few months with no answer... have we been syringered by adul?

I am assuming that the answer has to do with the mouse and some kind of mouse hole that drains the water. But the answers about opening the drain sound reasonable as well.

The bullet in his back is from an old war wound.
 
Why did you bump this thread? It's over three months old.

If you read the thread The answer WAS posted.

Oh, and lame.

Stupid answer:
If the room is filling with water, obviously the door is waterproof. If there are no windows, it stands to reason that the whole room is waterproof/airproof. If that's the case, he simply has to tread water until the air pressure plus the weight of the water in the room equals the pressure of the water coming out of the pipe, at which point it will stop flowing 😛

How bout he opened up his tub's drain 😛 Assuming of course that dv/dt is negative with the drain opened.
