One Megamind lived in a country ruled by a ruthless despot,
terrorizing the entire population. The laws were so
strict that thousands of people were sentenced for any slight
misbehavior and thrown into prison. For being more than
10 minutes late for work, any unfortunate soul would be incarcerated
for 5 years. Once, an elderly worker was late
for 12 minutes. His immediate boss filed the report, and the worker
was arrested and tried in court. The court did not
have a choice of many defenders because everybody was afraid to become
one. The Megamind was also scared but
he also knew that there was a way to save the man, so he stepped up
and became the man's defense attorney. In
court, the Megamind addressed the audience and asked them a single
question. A few minutes later, the man was
set free by the court. What question did the Megamind ask? |

During WWII, there was a heavily guarded bridge over the river
separating Germany from Switzerland. Each sentry
had orders to shoot at anybody trying to escape into the Swiss side,
and turn back all those who were coming into
Germany without proper papers. The post was located on the German side
of the bridge. Every three minutes, the
sentry got out to inspect the bridge. A German woman was desperate to
flee into the safety of Switzerland. She knew
that crossing the entire bridge takes 5-6 minutes. She could sneak
onto the bridge when the sentry was sitting inside
the post, but then she would be surely discovered and shot...She found
a solution. What did she do? |
