You are entombed in the GR dungeon , (found guilty of posting a link to a rival site) and there are only two doors out, door “A” and “B”. One leads to freedom and the other to certain death. Each door is guarded by two giant brothers who know which door leads where. One brother always lies and the other always the truth but you don’t know which. You are allowed one question of the brothers to gain freedom What is it? (if you Know this let the others have a think) Bob |

The question is “If I ask your brother which door leads to freedom, what would he say” Whatever the answer the truth is the opposite. Explanation Door “A” leads to freedom If you ask the question of the brother who tells the truth Then he would answer “B” because his brother always lies and that is the opposite of the truth. If you ask the brother who always lies he would also answer “B” because his brother would say “A” but he always lies!! So either way the way to freedom is the opposite of what they say. Bob |
