haha i got none right, let's see how you do :)



Are you the weakest link?

Below are four (4) questions.
You have to answer them instantly. You can't take your
time, answer all of them immediately. OK? Let's find out
just how clever you really are.

Ready?





GO!!! (scroll down)






First Question:
You are participating in a race. You overtake the second person.
What position are you in?













Answer: If you answered that you are first, then you are absolutely
wrong! If you overtake the second person and you take his place, you
are second!


Try not to mess up in the next question.

To answer the second question, don't take as much time as you took for
the
first question.








Second Question: If you overtake the last person, then you are...?

























Answer: If you answered that you are second to last, then you are wrong
again. Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST person?!




You're not very good at this are you?






Third Question: Very tricky math! Note: This must be done in your head
only. Do NOT use paper and pencil or a calculator. Try it.

















Take 1000 and add 40 to it. Now add another 1000. Now add 30. Add
another 1000. Now add 20. Now add another 1000. Now add 10. What is the
total?






























Did you get 5000? The correct answer is actually 4100.
Don't believe it? Check with your calculator!

Today is definitely not your day. Maybe you will get the last question
right?





Mary's father has five daughters: 1. Nana, 2. Nene, 3. Nini, 4. Nono.
What is the name of the fifth.
















Answer: Nunu?








NO! Of course not. Her name is Mary. Read the question again.

You mean after you read the answers? :)

Edit: Got 2 outta 4 (the last two). Technically I got #1 right, but it took like 10 seconds before I gave answer.

i got 3/4, the first two are weird hard because they are worded funny.

'second person' and 'last person' are somewhat relative terms. in relation to the runner, or an observer? more appropriate would be 'person in second' and 'person in last place', but of course then these silly questions wouldn't be deceiving.

in the 2nd question, i thought 'last person' was the last person i was trying to overtake so i missed that one.
