HOW SMART ARE YOU?

 

Here are 6 questions, some easy, some not so easy -

 

 

1. A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three rooms. The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that have not eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for him?

 

 

2. A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. However, five minutes later they

both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?

 

3. There are two plastic jugs filled with water. How could you put all of this water into a barrel, without using the jugs or any dividers,and still tell which water came from which jug?

 

 

4. What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and gray when you throw it away?

 

 

5. Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?

 

 

6. This is an unusual paragraph. I am curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it! In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd, but if you work at it a bit, you might find out! Try to do so without any coaching!

6. I don't think there's any E's in it.

2. A photograph?

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Struggling on the other 5 though. Could be to do with the 4-pack of Kroney.

 

 

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Lions - good answer, Rob!!

1. The room with lions, they're all dead from starvation. Woo-ooh!

[EFM's Librarian]

ooops, I didn't see Rob's answer <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

 

But I've just got 3, put the jugs of water into the barrel, assuming they fit. Or is that what it means when it says ' without using the jugs, or any dividers'?

[Rob_the_Saint]

Scrub my answer to 4, I mis-read it in a hurry.

[EFM's Librarian]

The word 'gray' leads to me think that this quiz was devised by some septics, surely not Canv?

[EFM's Librarian]

I've just got 4, Charcoal, as in on a Barbeque

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Good answer, Libro.

 

 

[Little Miss Urchin]

Is the jug question something to do with ice, or are both jusgs filled with water in its liquid form?

[Big J R]

2: A 'Broadmoor analyst's' answer to 2 would be that the womans FIRST husband was already dead. She exhumed his body to carry out the terrible retribution against him, then went out to dinner with her SECOND husband, who she married after her FIRST husband had sadly passed away from natural causes.

 

Well, it was worth a try !

[CANV EFM]

i think you have the lot we couldn't figure out the jugs one.. we thought the 'plastic' bit may have something to do with it

[EFM's Librarian]

We haven't got 2. I just checked it on the net. That is definitely the hardest of the lot, but I won't post it on here. I'll be very impressed if anybody gets it.
