Think like the owner.
A safe has a 4-digit code.
The owner says:
"The code is the same upside down."
The code is not 0000.
It opens on the first try.
What is the code?
A bell rings every hour.
At 1:00, it rings once.
At 2:00, it rings twice.
At 3:00, it rings three times.
But at 4:00, nobody hears it.
The bell still works.
Why?
You stand outside a closed room.
Inside the room is one bulb.
Outside are three switches.
You may enter the room only once.
How do you find the correct switch?
Two people look at the same photograph.
One says, "That is my father."
The other says, "That is my son."
They are both correct.
They are not looking at two different people.
How?
Think before you answer.
A locked box contains something valuable.
The key is inside the box.
No one breaks the box.
No one picks the lock.
Still, the box is opened.
How?
Three people make one statement each.
A says: "B is lying."
B says: "C is lying."
C says: "A and B are both lying."
Only one person is telling the truth.
Who is it?
