Just for fun: questions!!
Just had this sent to me ….. so thought I would share it with you all:
Below are four (4) questions and a bonus question. You must answer them instantly, please don’t take your time and ponder over each question, answer all of them immediately and go with whatever first pops in your head.
Ready?
GO!!!
First Question: …..
You are participating in a race. You overtake the second person. What position are you in?
Answer:
If you answered that you are first, then you are absolutely wrong! If you overtake the second person and you take his place, you are second!
To answer the second question, don’t take as much time as you took for the first question.
Second Question: …..
If you overtake the last person, then you are…?
Answer:
If you answered that you are second to last, then you are wrong. Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST Person?
Third Question: …..
Note: This must be done in your head only. Do NOT use paper and pencil or a calculator. Try it.
Take 1000 and add 40 to it, now add another 1000, now add 30, add another 1000, now add 20, now add another 1000 ……… Now add 10. What is the total?
Answer:
Did you get 5000?
The correct answer is actually 4100.
Fourth Question: …..
Mary’s father has five daughters: 1. Nana, 2. Nene 3. Nini 4. Nono
What is the name of the fifth daughter?Answer:
Nunu?
Nope ….. her name is Mary. Read the question again.
Okay, now the bonus round: …..
There is a mute person who wants to buy a toothbrush.
By imitating the action of brushing one’s teeth he successfully
expresses himself to the shopkeeper and the purchase is done.Now if there is a blind man who wishes to buy a pair of
sunglasses, how should he express himself?Answer:
He just has to open his mouth and ask.

i’ve seen these before, but still got the third one wrong !
technically you can overtake the last person and still be in first place !!! i’d not thought of that before !

I got them all right… pain in the ar$e I know… but I did. 😕
I had this sent to me by email and got them all right and couldn’t figure out why anyone got the number one wrong….. perhaps I was too sober?
