    and another - none of these are too hard which is why we enjoyed them..

    A 6-foot tall Magician standing on a well lit stage had a water glass and was holding it above his head. He let it drop to the blue carpet laid on the stage without spilling a single drop of water.

    How could he manage to drop the glass from a height of six feet and not spill a drop of water?
    the glass was empty

    There is an very ancient invention still used in some parts of the world today that allows common people to see through walls once they know how to use it.

    What is it?
    Its a window.

    you have been convicted of a capital offence crime, you are due for execution. You are required to make a last statement. If your statement is found to be true you will be hung if it is found to be false you will be boiled in oil.

    What do you say to stave off execution indefinately.

    you are trapped in a room, there are 2 doors. Each door is guarded by a horribly weaponized robotic guard. The guards are, in all observable respects, identical. In the room is a plinth with a plaque.

    The plaque reads

    • one of these doors leads to your freedom, the other to a long death that will hurt the entire time you are dying.
    • one guard is programmed to always lie
    • one guard is programmed to always tell the truth
    • you may ask one question
    • if you ask more than one question the guards will kill you.


    what question do you ask to survive

    Make a statement that nobody can verify?

    Easy one. If I remember my Dr Who "Pyramids of Mars" correctly, you ask one guard "If you were the other guard, which door leads to freedom?" and then walk through the other door.

    actually...

    If I was to ask that guard which door leads to safety which door would he tell me. Then you go through the other one..

    heres the logic...

    lets say door A leads to safety.

    The truth telling robot will tell you (when asked the above question) that door B leads to safety as it knows that the other robot is programmed to lie and that the lying robot will tell you door B.

    The lying robot will also tell you (when asked the above question) that door B leads to safety as it knows that the other robot is telling the truth and will tell you door A. Because its the lying robot it will now tell you door B.

    A similar logic process applies to the death penalty question but its worked backwards to this process.
