Not a moving vehicle, same applies to the submarine. At least, I think.

Another question for the sake of clearup - if the man behind the window swapped places would the victim, would they die as well? And would the former victim shoot themselves?

Alternatively, is the man behind the window a stupid child with a gun playing Persona 3?

I was about to say that space stations don't move that much, but then I realised it's still orbiting around the Earth at high velocities. It is a kind of home though, and lethal accidents and asphyxiation are highly possible there.

The man was in a submarine and saw someone drowning?
NO for the submarine. However drowning is one of the possible causes of death for the person outside.

Quote
The man accidentally sealed someone inside a waterproof (or other liquid-proof) container, and filled the container up with such liquid. He realised his negligence upon observing the contents of the liquid through an observation window.
NO

Quote
Is the man an astronaut?
NO, for the reason stated by Sir Fightest. The space station theory is indeed intersting, but is wrong for this case here.

Oh, that kind of question. Those are alway hard to answer, so don't try to read to much into them, but for this specific one I would say: YES
Had both traded places and the same negligence had happened, the man would possibly have died. You may assume that the other person would then, upon looking out of the window and realizing the result of his actions, have shot himself, as this is the course of action people take in these riddles.

Did the man regularly look through this window prior to this event?

YES. You may assume that looking through the window was part of his daily routine. It is also possible that 'looking through the window' happens simply when one passes by it due to the way it is positioned. What is important is only that he realized what was outside.

Did the victim die the night beforehand, and he wasn't seen until the next morning?

It's been stated that the suicide occured in the early morning, but maybe the death was earlier.

Actually, question 2 - does the man behind the window work in an aquarium?

The man was a doctor in a psychiatric ward, and the person outside was an escaped patient who hung himself overnight. Upon seeing the patient, the doctor felt guilty and shot himself.

Just trying out what I think is a logical solution...

Well, I'm a psych major, so it was the first thing that came to my mind.

Was the man in a role of responsibility?

Did the window actually look outdoors, rather than observing a room? (Probably phrased badly, but you should know what I mean...)

Did the man's job have a high risk to people who didn't work there?

Did the dead man work in the same profession as the suicidal man?

Did the man's job require him to look out the window?

YES. What the man saw through the window was outdoors. It was not any kind of room or interior.

Quote
Did the man's job have a high risk to people who didn't work there?
NO. There was only a risk for other people when the negligence happened.

Quote
Did the dead man work in the same profession as the suicidal man?
NO

Quote
Did the man's job require him to look out the window?
NO. It is possible to do his job without looking through a window or anything similar.

Quote
Was the man inside a criminal?
NO. The man was an upstanding citizen.

Quote
Was the man inside a gang member/mobster?
NO. See above.

My dear players, it appears to me that you are in danger of getting distracted from your path. There were already clues today that will help you figure out the man's profession or at least more details about the setting, so I encourage you to look for them. Check all those questions that I have answered with YES and try to use all of them in your thinking. You shall find the truth.

He was working at a zoo, and tending to the boa constrictor. When he came into work one day he found someone in the pen, suffocated by the snake.
