Brain Teasers, Riddles, What Not
You’re in a cabin and it’s pitch black. You have one match on you. Which do you light first: the newspaper, the lamp, the candle, or the fire?
What do you call a bear with no teeth? An English word has six letters, remove one letter, and twelve remains. What am I? What do you get from a pampered cow? How do you keep a bagel from getting away? What is as light as a feather, but even the world’s strongest man couldn’t hold it for more than a minute? What did the greatest dentist get at the awards ceremony? |
Without google...
I'm sure it's a trick question but I'll light the candle first, which I can use to light the fire and lamp. Pampered cow... no poo? Lochs for the bagel. Air/breath for what you can't hold (but I know divers who can hold it for 2-3 minutes). |

It can’t be the match as that is not one of the options given.

Let me ask you this. How are you gonna light any of those other objects without lighting the match first. This is an old riddle. The match is the answer.

You’re in a cabin and it’s pitch black. Around you there is a newspaper, a lamp, a candle, and wood in a fireplace. You have one match on you. Which do you light first? This one supports jumping past the match to find the answer. Slow down and it becomes obvious. A simple, but good riddle. |
