00:00Well, have you been looking for a chance to put on your detective hat?
00:03Well, here you go!
00:05A new portion of tricky riddles to sharpen your mind.
00:13Melissa met her guests who came to her birthday party.
00:16Catherine came before Bob, Aaron after Raynon.
00:20Bob arrived before Raynon, and Timothy came after Aaron.
00:24So, which guest arrived last?
00:36Timothy was the last one to come.
00:43Now, let's say you have two jugs.
00:46One of them holds exactly three gallons of water, and the other holds five gallons.
00:51With the help of just these two jugs and a fire hose,
00:54how can you measure out exactly four gallons of water?
01:07Fill the five-gallon jug to the top, then pour it into the three-gallon jug until it's full.
01:12You now have two gallons of water remaining in the five-gallon jug.
01:16Pour out the water from the three-gallon jug,
01:19and then pour the two gallons from the five-gallon jug into the three-gallon one.
01:23Finally, fill the five-gallon jug to the top and pour it into the three-gallon jug until it's full.
01:29There was only enough space left for one more gallon in the three-gallon jug,
01:33so you now have exactly four gallons in the five-gallon jug.
01:41Look at this image attentively and try to find a mistake.
01:54There's no river on the other side of the bridge.
01:57Where does it disappear?
02:02Now, look at these men very closely.
02:05Can you figure out which of them is a fake doctor?
02:18The doctor on the left may be wearing casual clothes, but he has his badge on,
02:22which probably means he was called to work urgently and didn't have time to change.
02:27He's also holding a stethoscope.
02:29The doctor in the middle is holding a spoon.
02:32But even though it looks suspicious, he has just given a child patient some cough syrup.
02:37You can also see a badge on his uniform.
02:40As for the man on the right, he's not a doctor.
02:43There's no badge on his uniform.
02:44And if you examine him more attentively, you'll notice the police uniform under his white coat.
02:50He's most likely a police officer undercover.
02:58Christy poured herself a full cup of tea and drank half of it.
03:01Then she filled the cup with milk.
03:03Then she drank half of the drink again.
03:06Then she refilled it with milk again and drank the rest of it.
03:10Can you figure out if Christy drank more tea or more milk?
03:23She drank the same amount of tea and milk.
03:25Look, Christy ended up drinking all her tea since the cup was eventually empty.
03:31Christy refilled the milk two times.
03:33And every time, it was half a cup of milk.
03:36Totally a full cup of milk.
03:42Deceptor, a famous magician, announced that he could throw a ping-pong ball in such a way
03:47that it would go a short distance, come to a complete stop, and go in the opposite direction.
03:52He also clarified that he wouldn't bounce the ball off of any object or tie anything to it.
03:58And indeed, he managed to perform the trick.
04:01How did he do it?
04:11He threw the ball straight up into the air.
04:19Can you name four days of the week that start with the letter T?
04:32These days are Tuesday, Thursday, today, and tomorrow.
04:41Now, listen up.
04:42All statements are true except one.
04:45Three days ago was not Friday.
04:48The day after tomorrow will be Saturday.
04:50Tomorrow is not Wednesday.
04:53In five days, it's a day off.
04:56Yesterday was not Saturday.
04:59So, the question is, what day of the week is today?
05:02Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, or Saturday?
05:15It's Thursday.
05:17Let's see how we can figure it out.
05:18Three days ago was not Friday.
05:21If this statement is true, then today is not Monday.
05:24The day after tomorrow will be Saturday.
05:27If it's true, then today is Thursday.
05:30Tomorrow is not Wednesday.
05:32Then today is not Tuesday.
05:34It's a day off in five days.
05:37If this statement was true, today would be Monday or Tuesday.
05:40But in this case, the statement contradicts the first and third ones.
05:45It must be false.
05:46Yesterday was not Saturday.
05:48It means that today is not Sunday.
05:51Based on all this, we can conclude that today is Thursday.
06:00There were two plastic jugs filled with water.
06:03Can you put all the water into one barrel without using any dividers and still tell which water comes from
06:09which jug?
06:19You can do it by freezing the water in one or both jugs and then cutting the plastic away, leaving
06:25only the ice.
06:26After that, you can put the chunks of ice into the barrel.
06:29This way, you'll be able to tell which water comes from which jug.
06:38A farmer in Florida owns a beautiful pear tree.
06:41He supplies fruit to a nearby grocery store.
06:44One day, the store owner calls the farmer to check how much fruit is available for him to buy.
06:49The farmer knows that the main trunk has 24 branches.
06:54Each branch has 12 boughs, and each bough has 6 twigs.
06:58Since each twig bears one piece of fruit, how many plums will the farmer be able to sell?
07:13Unfortunately, none.
07:15At least not from this tree.
07:16A pear tree doesn't produce plums.
07:23You have 5 jars with pills.
07:26Each pill weighs 10 grams, except for contaminated pills contained in one jar.
07:31There, each pill weighs 9 grams.
07:34You have a scale, but can you tell which jar has the contaminated pills after making just one measurement?
07:49To find the contaminated pills, you should follow the following steps.
07:53Take out 1 pill from jar number 1, 2 pills from jar number 2, 3 pills from jar number 3,
08:014 pills from jar number 4, and 5 pills from jar number 5.
08:05Put all these 15 pills on the scale.
08:08The correct weight should be 150 grams.
08:11But since one of the jars has contaminated pills, the weight will definitely be less than 150 grams.
08:17If the weight is 149 grams, then jar number 1 has the contaminated pills, because there is only one pill
08:25like that.
08:26If the weight is 148 grams, then the contaminated pills are in jar number 2.
08:32If the weight is 147 grams, the contaminated pills are in jar number 3, and so on.
08:43Many, many years ago, one guy was captured by an evil witch who kept him in her house.
08:48There was a cellar door in the house, and the witch warned the guy not to open it, because he
08:53was not ready to see what was behind it.
08:56Can you guess what was on the other side of the door that the witch didn't want the guy to
09:00see?
09:10The guy was actually locked in the cellar, and on the other side of the door was the rest of
09:15the house and the outside world.
09:17The witch just didn't want the guy to escape.
09:24One day, a boss told his employees,
09:27I can fight and beat any man who works here.
09:30A new employee, a tall ex-prize fighter, decided to challenge the boss.
09:35Interestingly, the boss won the bet, even though he didn't defeat the man.
09:39What did the boss do?
09:50Not to lose face, he fired the new employee on the spot.
09:54This way, when he defeated the boss, he wasn't working in the company anymore.
10:03Marty and Jill wanted to copy three 60-minute tapes.
10:07They have two tape recorders that will dub the tapes for them, so they can do two at a time.
10:12It takes 30 minutes for each side to complete.
10:15Therefore, in one hour, two tapes will be completed.
10:18And in another hour, the third will be done.
10:21Jill says all three tapes can be finished in 90 minutes.
10:24Can you figure out how it is possible?
10:36Let's call the tapes 1, 2, and 3, with sides A and B.
10:41In the first 30 minutes, the guys will work with 1A and 2A.
10:45In the second 30 minutes, they will record 1B and 3A.
10:49Now, tape 1 is completed.
10:51Finally, in the last half hour, they will do tape 2B and 3B.
11:05Get ready!
11:07These riddles will show you how attentive you are and how sharp your eyesight is.
11:11Let's rock it!
11:12Yeah!
11:17Esme, Evelyn, and Elise are drinking coffee.
11:20Ava, Ella, and Emma are drinking soda.
11:23Is Esther going to drink coffee or soda?
11:35Esther is going to drink coffee.
11:37The letter E in her name is used twice, just like in the names of the other coffee drinkers.
11:46Here's a tough question.
11:48Look at the picture and choose what or who you'll save first.
12:01You should save your family first.
12:03In any family, there are several people.
12:06They can help you save the rest of the people and the money.
12:13Look at these pictures.
12:14There's something wrong in one of them.
12:16Can you figure out what it is?
12:27This woman is eating the soup with a fork.
12:30Well, that's not a very successful strategy.
12:37Let's look at this picture.
12:38At first, there may seem like there's nothing in it but three bright stripes of different colors.
12:44But if you squint, you might find something else there.
12:56Have you spotted several faint numbers in the image?
12:59They are 55, 37, and 22.
13:07What do you think?
13:09Who's in greater danger here?
13:20It's the woman.
13:21If the man doesn't provoke the sharks, they might just circle him a few times and swim away.
13:26Or they might not be interested in humans altogether.
13:30But the flames won't be so hesitant.
13:37Stephen's family was away for the weekend.
13:40When they came back, they found Stephen injured and unconscious in the living room.
13:45The mate said she had been cleaning the house all morning and then had taken a nap in the afternoon.
13:50The cook told the police he had been making a food inventory in the afternoon.
13:55And the driver said he had been away, driving the kids to a museum.
13:59Who has something to do with the accident?
14:11It's the driver.
14:12The whole family, including the kids, were away on the weekend.
14:17He couldn't have driven them anywhere.
14:24Now, are you witty enough to crack the following riddle?
14:27What tastes like an apple, but is green in color?
14:40It's a green apple.
14:42Nothing less, nothing more.
14:47How many letters are there in the vowels?
14:59There are nine letters.
15:01Count yourself.
15:02The vowels.
15:07Mary went to a massage spa to have a...
15:10Let's assume it's a massage.
15:13Great choice.
15:13She was having such a great time that she dozed off.
15:17When it was time to pay, the woman found out that her money was missing.
15:22There were three people who could have taken the money.
15:24The first employee said she had been having her lunch at the back of the salon.
15:29The second employee claimed she had gone to the back of the storage to get some oil.
15:35And another customer explained that she had been waiting for her turn to get a massage.
15:40Who is lying?
15:51The second employee.
15:52Why would she need to go to the storage if she has a few bottles of oils right there?
16:02Which banana, in your opinion, is the best and ready to be eaten?
16:15You should pick banana number four.
16:18It's ripe and yellow, and there are no brown spots on it yet.
16:26Uncle Jack had a huge problem.
16:29His farm had experienced a terrible downpour.
16:32And now, all but 15 pigs were missing and couldn't be found.
16:36How many pigs were still in the barn?
16:4815.
16:55Hannah told her mom that her gymnastics team would be going to a sports camp for the weekend.
17:00Her mother thought it was a lie, and Hannah would spend the weekend with her boyfriend instead.
17:06And still, she helped her daughter pack her bag and didn't say a word.
17:11When Hannah came back from her weekend away,
17:14she complained to her mom that she had forgotten to pack a toothbrush.
17:17That's when her mother made sure Hannah was lying.
17:20But how did she understand it?
17:31The woman put a toothbrush inside Hannah's rolled-up sports clothes.
17:36If the girl had indeed gone camping,
17:39she would have unpacked these clothes and found the toothbrush.
17:46Can you figure out what is dark but made by light?
17:59It's a shadow, a dark area that only appears when there's a source of light.
18:09Buckets, barrels, baskets, cans.
18:11What can you fill with empty hands?
18:23Well, if your hands are empty, you can only fill gloves.
18:31Look at these women.
18:32Who is the baby's mother?
18:44It's the woman on the right.
18:46Have you noticed diapers lying in the corner?
18:52Now, pay attention to these people and to what they're doing.
18:56Can you figure out which one of them is left-handed?
19:08It's the waitress.
19:09She serves with her left hand.
19:11That's why she needs to hold the tray with her right hand.
19:19Oliver was on his way to another city.
19:21It was late evening.
19:23And at some point, the man felt tired and sleepy.
19:26He immediately stopped at the nearest hotel and went inside.
19:30While the receptionist was looking for an available room,
19:33Oliver saw a breakfast flyer with delicious-looking fried eggs on it.
19:38Excuse me?
19:39Could I probably have four fried eggs right now?
19:42The receptionist wasn't sure about that.
19:45Our cook brought eight eggs in the morning.
19:48He broke three and fried three.
19:50Were there enough eggs left for Oliver?
20:01The cook broke three eggs and cooked them.
20:04It leaves us with five extra eggs, which should be more than enough for Oliver.
20:13Some people hate it, and some love it.
20:16It changes people's thoughts and appearances.
20:18If a person takes care of themselves, it goes higher.
20:22Some people manage to hide it.
20:24Others try but fail.
20:26But whatever people do, it never goes down.
20:30What is it?
20:40It's their age.
20:46When Matt was 8 years old, he hammered a nail into his favorite tree in the garden to mark his
20:52height.
20:52Then his family moved away, and he couldn't check how fast he was growing anymore.
20:57Ten years later, at the age of 18, Matt decided to come back to find the tree.
21:03If the tree grows two inches a year, how much higher is the nail now?
21:17The nail is going to be at the same height.
21:20Trees grow at their tops, not bottoms.
21:28Why are pianos so hard to open?
21:47Mike was on his way to visit his grandma, who lived on the other side of the valley.
21:51It was her anniversary, so he wanted to give her the cakes he had made.
21:55Between Mike's house and her house, the guy had to cross five bridges.
22:00And as it was in the land of make-believe, there was a troll under every bridge.
22:06Each troll insisted that Mike pay a troll toll.
22:09Before the guy could cross the bridge, he had to give them half of the cakes he was carrying.
22:14But since they were kind trolls, each of them gave Mike back an entire cake.
22:19How many cakes did Mike have to take with him to make sure that he arrived at his grandma's house
22:25with exactly two cakes?
22:36Mike needs to take two cakes.
22:39At each bridge, he's required to give half of his cakes, and he receives one back.
22:44Which leaves him with two cakes after every bridge.
22:52Mr. Brown opened a newspaper in the morning and saw a headline,
22:56Workers want to make less money.
22:58He was confused until he read the article.
23:01What was going on?
23:10The workers who wanted to make less money worked at the Mint and were tired of being overworked.
23:16They wanted to work less.
23:17Which would mean making less money, since money is made at a Mint.
23:26A frog is at the bottom of a well.
23:29To get out of it, it needs to climb 30 feet.
23:32Each morning, the frog jumps 3 feet up the path, but each night, as it sleeps, it slips 2 feet
23:38back down.
23:39Thus, at the beginning of the first day, the frog has 30 feet to go.
23:44At the beginning of the second day, it has 29 feet to go, and so on.
23:48How many days will it take the frog to get out of the well?
24:03It'll take 28 days for the frog to get out.
24:06In other words, it will get out on the morning of the 28th day.
24:11This is because, at the beginning of this day, the frog has 3 feet left to travel.
24:16And since the frog jumps 3 feet forward each morning, it will jump out of the well on this day.
24:22Okay.
