A basket contains 5 apples. Do you know how to divide them to 5 kids so that each one has an apple and one apple stays in the basket?

another interesting one.....


 


You are driving your car during a thunderstorm. While passing a bus stop, you see three people:



- A very sick old woman who needs to be taken to the hospital immediately

- A doctor who has saved your life before

- The person you've always dreamed to be your soulmate but had never met until now



Your car is a two-seater sports car, and as such, you are able to accomodate one passenger only. What would you do in such a situation?

A body is found high on a mountain in the snow, with no tracks around him.  the coroner determines he died from the pack on his back. 


How did he die?

on the flips side:


A guy is found dead on a mountain side, tracks all around him, and the coroner determines the cause is the pack on his back.....
