00:00 - Jeremiah is on the run from the police.
00:03 He stole several large gold bars from the bank.
00:06 He has 3 gold bars in his arms, each weighing 20 pounds.
00:10 In fact, there's a way for him to get away with that.
00:13 All he needs to do is to cross a bridge, but here's the kicker.
00:17 The bridge can only support 200 pounds.
00:20 The 3 bars of gold weigh 60 pounds, and Jeremiah weighs 160 pounds.
00:25 How can he cross the bridge without getting rid of any of the bars?
00:39 Seems like to do so, one of the bars should literally float in the air.
00:42 To make it happen, Jeremiah must juggle them.
00:46 This way, only 2 bars will be acting on the bridge, while the third one will be airborne.
00:51 Voila! 160 + 20 + 20 = 200.
00:56 So the bridge isn't likely to let Jeremiah down.
01:03 - You're playing dodgeball with two other people, Arnie and Preston.
01:07 You're standing in a triangle, and you all take turns throwing a ball at one of the others
01:11 of your choosing until only one person is remaining.
01:15 You have a 30% chance of hitting someone you aim at.
01:19 Arnie has a 50% chance, and Preston a 100% chance.
01:23 Yeah, this guy never misses.
01:25 If you hit somebody, they are out and no longer get a turn.
01:29 If the order of throwing is you, Arnie, and then Preston, what should you do to have the
01:34 best chance of winning?
01:46 First you gotta miss the first time on purpose.
01:49 If you try to hit Arnie, and you do hit him, then Preston goes next, and he will 100% hit
01:55 you, and you will lose for sure.
01:57 If you aim at Preston and hit him, then Arnie will go for you.
02:01 If you miss on your first turn, Arnie will go for Preston for sure because he's a stronger
02:06 player.
02:07 If he hits him, then it's just you and Arnie, but you are going first.
02:11 If he misses, then Preston will hit Arnie, and it will be just you and Preston.
02:16 But again, in this case, you are going first.
02:20 It will be a 30% chance, but this way, you're in the finals.
02:29 A man wants to enter an exclusive club, but he doesn't know the password.
02:34 Another man walks to the door, and the doorman says "12".
02:39 The man says "6" and is let in.
02:43 Another man walks up, and the doorman says "6".
02:45 The man says "3" and is let in.
02:48 Thinking he has heard enough, he walks up to the door, and the doorman says "10",
02:53 he says "5", and he isn't let in.
02:56 What should he have said?
03:02 "3".
03:08 He should have said how many letters were in the number he said.
03:15 A thief enters a high-end boutique and frightens the shop assistant, forcing him to open the
03:21 safe.
03:22 The shop assistant says "The code for the safe is different every day, and if you try
03:26 to do anything to me, you'll never get the code."
03:29 But the thief manages to guess the code on his own.
03:33 How did he do it?
03:43 That thief was smart.
03:44 The code is different.
03:46 The shop assistant told him this.
03:52 A woman is found alone in the middle of the desert.
03:55 She is surrounded by a pile of debris and a wrecked plane.
03:59 There are no other signs of life in the area.
04:01 Despite the crash, the woman is alive and well.
04:04 Nothing serious happened to her, and she appears to be in good health.
04:08 How did she survive?
04:19 Look closer.
04:20 The woman wasn't on the plane when it crashed.
04:23 She survived by jumping out of the airplane with a parachute before it crashed.
04:32 Two fathers and their two sons go fishing together.
04:35 They each catch one fish to take home with them.
04:38 They do not lose any fish, and yet when they get home, they only have three fish.
04:44 How can this happen?
04:55 There are just three people – a grandfather, his son, and his grandson.
05:04 A super wealthy businessman, Mr. Ben Swift, was taken and left locked up all alone in
05:10 a dark room.
05:11 His phone almost ran out of charge, so he can write only one message.
05:16 He knows that someone might spy on his phone, so he decided to write a message with a code
05:21 to a high school friend, John Smith, who has a detective agency.
05:25 He remembered that in high school, they would cipher messages to each other, shifting one
05:30 letter to the right each time they needed to write a secret code.
05:34 So check this out.
05:36 Can you guess what it means?
05:47 It's not gibberish.
05:48 The message is "It was my accountant."
05:57 You were wandering in the jungle, and all of a sudden, you saw a magnificent antique
06:01 castle.
06:02 You enter it and see its inhabitants.
06:05 It's kind of hard to say if they're friendly or not, but hey, look, they just fetched you
06:09 some snacks.
06:10 Still, you can tell from their grins that these snacks must be a trap for you.
06:15 You can't say no to them and need to choose something to eat.
06:19 There are four muffins before you, all looking yummy, and your mouth is watering.
06:24 One of the dwellers, who seems to be their leader, tells you that the first muffin has
06:28 some fermented cabbage inside, the second one is swarming with live ants, the third
06:33 one has mud instead of chocolate cream, and the fourth one has ackee fruit inside.
06:38 So which dessert would you opt for?
06:50 A muffin with fermented cabbage may sound weird and not dessert-like, but it's safe.
06:55 You've tried fermented cabbage, also known as kimchi, before, and you loved it.
07:00 For those who love to risk, the fourth one could be good to go too.
07:04 Ackee fruit is delicious when cooked properly, but you weren't sure if the dwellers took
07:10 care of cooking it well.
07:12 As for ants and mud muffins, I'd pass on them for sure.
07:20 Mary is a nail technician.
07:22 Her services are free to anyone who wants to set up an appointment with her.
07:26 However, most people still end up paying here.
07:29 How so?
07:39 Mary only does one hand for free, so most people who come to get her services end up
07:45 paying the full price.
07:46 They don't really want to look bizarre with the nails done only on one hand.
07:55 Jocelyn went grocery shopping and bought a lot of milk, yogurts, meat, and cheese.
08:01 When she came back home, she realized she had nowhere to store all these products, as
08:06 her fridge was already full.
08:08 How can she save all the food that she bought?
08:20 Jocelyn needs to order stuff in her fridge.
08:22 Look, here's a pack of rice, some chips, and even cookies.
08:26 These products don't need to be stored in the fridge.
08:29 Once she takes it all out of the fridge, she'll have enough space to store dairy products
08:33 and meat.
08:37 Phil's teacher is a great person, but like many other people, he has some oddities.
08:45 He would never let Phil go home until he solves one of his tricky riddles.
08:49 This time, the riddle is "How many apples in total are there on a pine if there are
08:54 five apples on each branch and there are eight branches on the tree?"
09:04 Okay, this one was easy.
09:10 There are no apples on a pine.
09:12 There are cones.
09:19 Before Kathy lived with a stepmother and three wicked stepsisters.
09:25 Her dream was to go to a lit party she's been waiting for all year long.
09:30 Her stepmother, Evelyn, never let Kathy go anywhere.
09:34 This time, Evelyn decided to let Kathy go when she has finished all the tasks given
09:39 by Evelyn.
09:40 The stepmother asked Kathy to bring her some water, but she gave her a colander to carry
09:45 water in.
09:46 How can Kathy bring the water if she has nothing but a colander?
09:59 Kathy needs to freeze some water and put it in the colander.
10:02 It takes some time to melt, but when Evelyn gets that colander full of ice, technically,
10:07 she'll have a colander full of water.
10:10 Hey, Kathy, make sure to be back by midnight.
10:13 You need a ride!
