damn, Smadje knew it :P

It's the joke, a matchbox is box with matches, but not here.
A tin can is a can made out of tin, but not here either :P

I agree with Ninja btw.

Going for a hard one, it's originally made by Einstein. He said 98% of the people can't solve it. Are you with the 2% who can?


There are 5 houses in 5 different colours, in every house someone lives with a other nationality. the 5 persons all drink something different, smoke a other type of cigar and they all have a different pet.

One person has a fish, the question is: Who?

Clues:

The British man lives in the red house.
The Swedish man got dogs as pet.
The Danish man drinks tea.
The green hous stands next and left of the white house.
The owner of the green house drinks coffee.
The man who smokes Pall Mall likes birds.
The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill.
The man in the house in the middle drinks milk.
The Norwegian man lives in the first house.
The man who smokes Blends lives next to the man who has cats.
The man which has a horse lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill.
The person who smokes Blue Master, drinks beer.
The German smokes Prince.
The Norwegian man lives next to the blue house.
The man who smokes Blends has a neighboor who drinks water.

Who has the fish as a pet?


Yes, there is a solution. If you have the solution before Sunday, with an explenation. And you haven't got it from the internet. Prime-Squadron gets a reward!

Lol,becuse i went on forum,inturduce yourself,and read all peoples post there and watched their country flag and pets they have i and come up with solution that germas like fish the most! :)

I took a4 papier and put all information on how you say it on english that looked like excel table,rows in it and the only one without pet was german i can write you what rest of guys have for pets and in wich color they live and what cigarete they smoke,but i would need a hell of a long time to write you step by step i took to get to that conclusion.

I went on google to find my answer,so now i know i am right,now i am on work so dont have time to give you answer how i did it,but today i am going to slovenia on trip,so i am back in sunday,so i will write you step by step how i did it,if it will be posiblle to write it,anyway i will try to explain.give me just time until monday evening pls.
Lol i solved it,so i dont belive i am in top 2% on world,maybe einstein got it wrong this time,but lol i am proud of myself!

Congratulations! The answer can be solved indeed by writing it on a A4 paper for example.

I'd like to see if others are able to solve it too :read:

The Norwegian lives in first house, so the second house is blue. There's 2 ways then: 3rd is red and 4th-5th are green-white, or 3rd-4th are green-white and 5th is red. But the owner of the 3rd house drinks milk and the owner of the green drinks coffee, so the only possible solution is: 3rd red, 4th green, 5th white. The only missing color is yellow which is obviously assigned to the 1st house (Norwegian). The yellow owner smokes Dunhill and drinks water because danish drinks tea, green owner coffee, and Blue Master smoker drinks beer and british milk.
We know that who smokes Blends has a neighbour who drinks water, so the owner of second blue house smokes Blends. The Blue master smoker drinks beer, and he may be the 3rd or the 5th (because the 4th house is green and drinks coffee). But the 3rd house is red, so there lives a British who drinks milk, so the Blue master smoker lives in 5th white house and drinks beer. Pall Mall is the only type of cigarettes missing, so the only remaining answer is 3rd red house- British. Pall Mall smoker likes birds, so 3rd house is complete: red - british - pall mall - milk - birds.
The Blends smoker (2nd house) has a neighbour who has cats, but the only possible solution is 1st house (Norwegian - yellow - Dunhill - water).
The German who smokes Prince goes to 4th green house and he drinks coffee.
Danish drinks tea so he can only goes to 2nd house, Swedish to 5th and he has a dog. So the only remaining pet is fish that is owned by German guy in 4th house.

Summary: 1st house - yellow - Norwegian - Dunhill - water - cats
2nd house - blue - Danish - Blends - tea - horse
3rd house - red - British - Pall Mall - milk - birds
4th house - green - German - Prince - coffee - fish
5th house - white - Swedish - Blue Master - beer - dog

I hope i write it correctly, and explanation is made by myself. I think it took me more time to write it than resolving the riddle :P

That's right! He wasn't tall enought to reach '25' button so he was pressing one beneath it (24) and walked the remaining floor on his foot using the stairs.

Same with Polish buses and I think most of the world's buses. The misterious blue bus goes left.

I know the Einstein's riddle too, but I never took the chalange to solve it by myself. Bah winter holidays are comming so I think I'm going to try it out.

New one fellows:
Two people were on a trial in court. They were accused of a murder. The judge found one peron guilty and the other innocent. The judge adressed the guilty person: "This is the most incredible case, I've ever had! Although your falt was proven beyond any doubt, the law forces me to release you".

How to explain this?

Maybe that person was insane and he did not know what he was doing while committing the murder? Or maybe he murdered something like a cat :P Or maybe he murdered something that never lived.

The person is under the age of 12, making him/her not able to convict.

Yes, this is an actual law.
