00:00Are you ready to flex those brain muscles and level up your smarts?

00:05Let's start!

00:06You're in a dark, dark room with three light bulbs.

00:10There are three switches in the corridor.

00:12Your task is to figure out which switch controls which light bulb.

00:16How many times do you need to open the door to do it?

00:23Actually, just once.

00:29Turn on two switches at the same time and after a while, turn off the second one.

00:34Now enter the room.

00:35One light bulb is still on.

00:37The first switch controls it.

00:38Now all you have to do is touch the remaining bulbs.

00:41The warm one is linked to the second switch and the cold one is controlled by the third.

00:47A guy likes a girl and wants to know how old she is.

00:50She smiled mysteriously and said, yesterday I was 22 and next year I'll be 25.

00:57Can you guess when the girl's birthday is and what date this took place?

01:09I'm sure you figured out the conversation took place on the 1st of January and the girl's

01:13birthday is on the 31st of December.

01:17When she says yesterday, she means the 30th of December, when she was 22.

01:22She turned 23 the following day and since they were talking on the 1st of January, she

01:28will indeed be already 25 a year from that day.

01:35The detective stormed into the lab just in time to stop the theft of a groundbreaking

01:39secret formula.

01:41Two women stood under the harsh fluorescent lights, both dressed as scientists.

01:45But the detective knew one was the real deal and the other a clever thief with plans to

01:51swipe the priceless formula.

01:53One woman clutched a folder filled with papers.

01:56She had her ID badge clipped to her coat.

01:59The other one held a flask.

02:01So who's the thief?

02:10The detective noticed one subtle detail, a pair of pristine white gloves peeking out

02:15of the pocket of one of the ladies.

02:18Real scientist gloves don't stay clean for long in a lab.

02:21The spotless gloves were a giveaway.

02:24This lady wasn't experimenting.

02:26She was staging a heist and trying to leave no fingerprints behind.

02:32The detective decided to rest at the park.

02:35Suddenly, he heard a young girl crying.

02:38She told him someone stole her puppy of a rare and expensive breed.

02:42Three people nearby are acting suspiciously.

02:45Two women and a man.

02:47The first woman is holding a leash and claims it belongs to her own dog.

02:51The second woman is holding a bag of dog treats and says she has no idea what's going on.

02:57The man says he's just out for a jog and saw nothing.

03:01Who is hiding the truth?

03:11The detective notices it instantly.

03:13The first woman holding the leash is suspicious.

03:16It makes sense for someone to have a leash if they own a dog.

03:19But this leash is unusually clean and unused, with no signs of wear or scratches on the

03:25metal clasp.

03:27The second woman with the dog treats probably brought them to feed stray dogs or train her

03:32own pet.

03:33And it looks like the man isn't lying and really doesn't have anything to do with all

03:37this.

03:41The doctor gave her patient four pills of two types, two pills of each type.

03:47It's impossible to tell one from another, but it's important that the patient takes

03:50one pill of each type in the morning and the same in the evening.

03:54If he does something wrong, it could cost him his life.

03:57And yep, the pills got mixed up.

03:59And only you can save the patient's life.

04:02Can you figure out how to take the pills now?

04:12Just go back to the doctor and ask for more pills.

04:15Well, maybe it could work out in real life, but we're flexing the brain muscles here,

04:19so no.

04:20The patient will have to split each pill in half and take half of each pill in the morning

04:24and evening.

04:28A priceless crown arrived at a museum, and by priceless, I actually mean worth millions

04:34of dollars.

04:35It was still not on display, and only employees knew it was there.

04:39So when the crown went missing, the boss knew one of them had stolen it.

04:43She gathered all the staff in the exhibit room and told them she knew how to find the

04:47thief.

04:49Each of them had to walk past a special painting while the lights were turned off.

04:53The painting would scan everyone and reveal a faint glow when the thief passed by.

04:59The painting didn't glow at all during the procedure, but the boss knew exactly who had

05:03stolen the crown.

05:05How did she figure it out?

05:15The thief was the only one who hadn't walked past the painting.

05:18They believed it would glow, although their boss just made it up.

05:25A time traveler from the future accidentally stepped into the wrong portal and landed in

05:29our time.

05:31The portal he used has closed and he's stranded.

05:34He searched for a way to reopen it and noticed a strange message glowing on a screen nearby.

05:40How can he use this to reopen the portal?

05:51Did you notice that huge clock on the wall?

05:54The traveler must rotate the clock's hand, both the hour and minute hands, to align at

05:59the points mentioned in the note.

06:01He carefully set the hands at the right time, one after the other.

06:06When he aligned them one last time, the portal reopened and he stepped back into his time.

06:14Look at this beautiful family.

06:16One of these kiddos is named Kyle and he's standing at the edge.

06:20If Liz were standing next to Sam, Paul would end up next to his namesake.

06:25Can you tell who's standing where?

06:35Liz is definitely not standing next to Sam.

06:38For her to be next to Sam, the girl would need to stand in the second spot from the

06:42left.

06:43Then, two namesakes would be next to each other to the right.

06:48So here they're from the left to right.

06:50Kyle, then Sam, Paul, Liz, and the second Paul.

06:57You're standing in front of a locked door.

07:00Your best friend is trapped on the other side.

07:02Whoa!

07:03Something is popping up on the screen.

07:05There's a hammer, a puzzle piece, a flashlight, and a rope.

07:09It looks like you must solve this riddle to rescue your friend.

07:21I hope you figured it out because your bestie is pretty scared.

07:25It's the flashlight.

07:26You need to shine a light on the hidden code on the door to unlock it before using any

07:31other tools.

07:34Sophia and Lily were taking part in a local crafts fair.

07:38They were preparing for months.

07:41Sophia was really determined to sell all of her art because she made a bet with her husband.

07:46But the weather that day was just terrible.

07:49No one showed up to browse or buy anything.

07:52After hours of waiting with no customers in sight, both girls got really, really upset.

07:57Finally, they came up with a clever idea of how to sell everything, but without making

08:03any money.

08:04So what did they do?

08:14Sophia and Lily simply sold their art to each other.

08:17Neither of them made a profit or a loss.

08:20This way, they both technically sold everything.

08:26Mom comes home after a long day and immediately notices her favorite vase, the one she inherited

08:31from her grandma, shattered on the floor.

08:34She calls her three kiddos into the living room, Liam, Mia, and Zoe.

08:39None of them admits they did it.

08:41Liam says he was reading a book in his room and only came downstairs to greet Mom.

08:47Mia claims she was watching TV when she heard the vase breaking into pieces.

08:53Zoe says she was sleeping, but the vase drama woke her up.

08:58Mom inspected the scene and knew who did it.

09:01Can you do the same?

09:10Zoe broke the vase.

09:11The trail of wet footprints matches the drips from her popsicle, and she definitely wasn't

09:16enjoying a popsicle in her sleep!

09:19How many riddles did you manage to solve?
