    The Beatles have to get to a gig in 17 minutes
    They have to cross a footbridge
    Only two can be on the bridge at one time
    Its night and they have a torch
    The torch must be carried in order to cross the bridge

    John can cross in 1 minute
    Paul 2 minutes
    George 5 minutes
    Ringo 10 minutes




    Interesting story those Beatles boys were crazy.

      Does it take Ringo that long because he has to carry George and Johns coffins?

        If they take the long and winding road through strawberry fields and use the yellow submarine to cross then they could do it.

            Ringo and George cross at the same time, this takes 10 mins, then they throw the torch back and John and Paul cross in 2 mins (12mins total).

                John & Paul cross and John comes back with torch = 3mins
                Ringo & George cross = 10 mins
                Paul comes back with torch = 2 mins
                John and Paul cross = 2 mins

                Total = 17 mins

                This assumes that John and Paul didn't have a fight about who was better/faster etc

                      ok here is another one, all you bored contractors

                      three guys(A B C) face a wall, one behind the other
                      A forth guy(D) is on the other side of the wall


                      A B C || D


                      A = white hat
                      B = black hat
                      C= white hat
                      D = black hat

                      They can not see their own hat

                      A can see B and C
                      B can see C
                      C can see no one
                      D can see no one

                      The first person to get the color of their own hat wins a million
                      but they must get it right, no guessing. They cant discuss it.
                      No tricks, no throwing.


                      Clue, when they get the go ahead, no one speaks for about 20 seconds then one of the four speaks up 'I am wearing a xx color hat' and they are right
