The May issue of the Council Courier has featured the following riddle:
He that is born to be stabbed shall never be drowned.
The answer is: The Witch-king. Explanation: The Witch-king is really the only one who is nearly drowned and then is stabbed. He is nearly drowned at the Ford Of Bruinen by Elrond and then he is stabbed by both Merry and Éowyn on the Pelennor Fields.
