Subject: FW: The Weakest Link......doh!

A little ripper from my buddy in Hawkes Bay  

Here is a very simple little test comprising of four questions  to determine the level of your intellect.

Your replies must be  spontaneous and immediate, with no deliberating or wasting  time. And no cheating. 

Marks, set....GO!!!  



1: You are competing in a race, and overtake the runner lying  in second place. In which position are you now?   

Answer: If you answered that you're now coming first then you're  completely wrong. You overtook the second runner and took their  place, therefore you're coming second.   For the next question try not to be so dim.  



2 : If you overtake the last runner, what position are you now  in?   

Answer: If you answered second-last, once again you're completely  wrong. Think about it...How can you over take the person coming  last? If you're behind them then they can't be last. The answer  is impossible!! It would appear that thinking is not one of your  strong points. You would make a good weak link!!!   Anyway, here's another to try, don't take any notes or use a  calculator, and remember your replies must be instantaneous. Take  heart!! (that was the dictionary's suggestion)  

 

3 : Take 1000. Add 40.  Add another 1000.  Add 30. 1000 again.  Plus 20. Plus 1000.  And plus 10.  What is the total ?   

Answer: 5000??? Wrong again!!!! The correct answer is 4100. Try again  with a good calculator. Today is clearly not your day!!  Although you should manage to get the last question right...  

 

4 : Marie's father has five daughters: 

1. Chacha 

2. Cheche 

3. Chichi 

4. Chocho 

5. ????  Question: What is the fifth daughter's name?    Think quickly...you'll find the answer below... 

Answer: Chuchu??? WRONG! It's obviously Marie! Read the question  properly!   You are clearly the weakest link....GOODBYE
