Three men up to their necks in sand! ~ faded to grey

Ok, here's the situation, three men are buried up to their necks in sand (they're in a line as if they are in a queue), and the guy that has buried them says that he is going to kill them. BUT he first decides to give them a chance to live by putting a hat on each of their heads. Now he tells them that each hat is either black or white and that both colors are present, what they have to do in order to live is say which color hat they are wearing. The combination is the first guy has a black hat, the second has a white hat and the third guy has a black hat. One of the men is able to work out the color hat he is wearing and escape.

The question is which guy escapes and how does he know what color hat he is wearing?

Date: 7/14/2004 12:33:00 PM  From Authorid: 13119    you should change the wording, I thought you meant in a straight line but you meant a row, one behind the other. sorry I understand queue but it didn't sink in I was putting them next to each other.
