Brain Teasers!

Let's see...start guessing! :)

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
haven't 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. But 5 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'm 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!

If you got this in email, please don't cheat!! :)

Cool!:cool:

I think I know the first one also...

1. the room with the lions... I won't tell why yet to give others a chance, but I know that has to be right.

5. Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow.:D

Don't know the others, although I remember the last one from High School, I just can't remeber what it was. Figured the other two out on my own.

I know #4 also, but I won't give it away since I've done two already.

I know 3 of these, but I'll let the thread go on for awhile to see if someone else knows. Also, if you like brainteasers, there is a great game called Mindtrap that you can pick up anywhere for under $15 that is nothing but these.:animwink:

#1: the lions. Not having eaten for 3 years, they're all dead.

(The rest I've all seen before, so I'll hold off.)

And I second the Mindtrap endorsement. I have a set, and it's great alone or with friends.

well, personally i would dump one jug into the barrel, freeze it, then dump the water on top of that. then you could tell what water came from waht jug, at least for a little while, when the ice would start to melt.
 
I've got a few good teasers.

1.)What is greater than god, more powerful than the devil. Rich people need it, the poor have it, and if you eat it you die?

2.)This thing all thigns devours. birds, beats trees flowers. Knaws iron, bites steal, and grinds hard stones to meal. Slays kings, ruins towns, and beats high mountains down.
