Motivation: LATERAL THINKING PUZZLES
Read and analyze each situation.
1. You are driving down the road in your car on a wild, stormy night,
when you pass by a bus stop and you see three people waiting for the
bus:
a. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die
b. An old friend who once saved your life
c. The perfect partner you have been dreaming about knowing that
there can only be one passenger in your car, whom would you
choose?
For me I will choose the old lady because after I help the old lady I can give my keys to
my friend then I wait for my perfect partner for the bus.
2. Acting on an anonymous phone call, the police raid a house to arrest
a suspected murderer. They don't know what he looks like but they
know his name is John and that he is inside the house. The police
bust in on a carpenter, a lorry driver, a mechanic and a fireman all
playing poker. Without hesitation or communication of any kind, they
immediately arrest the fireman. How do they know they've got their
man?
They arrest the fireman because he is the only man in the room. And rest of the poker
players are women.
3. A man lives in the penthouse of an apartment building. Every morning
he takes the elevator down to the lobby and leaves the building. Upon
his return, however, he can only travel halfway up in the lift and has
to walk the rest of the way - unless it's raining. What is the
explanation for this?
The man is a dwarf. He can't reach the upper elevator buttons, but he can ask people to
push them for him. He can also push them with his umbrella.

4. A father and his son are in a car crash. The father is killed and the
child is taken to hospital gravely injured. When he gets there, the
surgeon says, 'I can't operate on this boy - for he is my son!!!' How
can this possibly be?
The surgeon can’t operate the boy because the boy is her own son and she is the mother.

5. There are six eggs in the basket. Six people each take one of the eggs.
How can it be that one egg is left in the basket?

When Bad Boy Bubby opened the cellar door he saw the living room and, through its
windows, the garden. He had never seen these before because his mother had kept him all
his life in the cellar.
