I'm bored, so i was thinking, We need a place to post riddles mild to tough. Not jokes unless they require thinking.

Heres one to start


A large truck is crossing a bridge 1 mile long. The bridge can only hold 14000 lbs, which is the exact weight of the truck. The truck makes it half way across the bridge and stops. A bird lands on the truck. Does the bridge collapse? Give a reason.

The bridge wouldn't just collapse all of a sudden. If it was wood it might, but I'm guessing it's cement due to the weight limit. A few more ounces wouldn't make it collapse.

no, the truck has expended fuel along the way and will be safe now

    The bridge has already collapsed. That is why it only makes it halfway bc the truck ways 14,000 lbs(the maximum threshold of the bridge.) Therefore the bridge collapsed bc the weight of the driver + the truck = greater than 14,000 lbs(obviously the truck cannot drive itself.)  I assume the bird landed on the truck at the bottom of wherever the truck fell to.

    You approach two talking doors. One door leads to the City of Truth, while the other door leads to the City of Liars. You do not know which door is which. You are able to ask only one question to determine which door is which. The door that leads to the City of Liars always speaks lies, while the door that leads to the City of Truth always speaks the truth. You want to go to the City of Truth. What question do you ask to determine which door leads to the City of Truth?

    That would work,,,bu this was teh answer

    Answer(1): You ask a a door - "If I were to ask the other door which door leads to the city of truth, what would he say". And then you pick the opposite door of what he tells you.
    Answer(2): Ask the door - "If I asked you which door leads to the city of truth before, which door would you have told me?" (negative and negative = positive, positive and positive = positive). and you choose the door that it directs you to.


    If you know any, post them.
