It isn't some wild answer like: He woke up in his sleep and ate at Denny's and then walked on water and threw his grand slam at the window of a freighter, breaking the window and impaling the Captain and his mates, which caused a giant explosion since they were carrying bombs.
Not that complicated.

Yeah, lighthouse keeper.
I was thinking he was a captain that went to sleep or something. Too many possibilities.

Mainly because I have seen these kind of questions a lot and since many riddles are trick questions you have to think that way. Also, the fact that you have to be really good at math gave it away that you have to look beyond numbers.
