Smart People Test...
I'm going to refrain from commenting on how I think certain people will do...
But I'm judging on the inside.
Below are four ( 4) questions and a bonus question. You have to answer them instantly. You can't take your time, answer all of them immediately.
Let's find out just how clever you really are.
First Question: You are 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 screw up in the next 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?
Answer: Did you get 5000? The correct answer is actually 4100. (Sidenote: This one got me)
Fourth Question: Mary's father has five daughters: 1. Nana, 2. Nene, 3. Nini, 4. Nono. What is the name of the fifth daughter?
Answer: Nunu? NO! Of course not. Her name is Mary. Read the question again.
Okay, now the bonus round: There is a mute person who wants to buy a toothbrush. By imitating the action of brushing one's teeth he successfully expresses himself to the shopkeeper and the purchase is done. Now if there is a blind man who wishes to buy a pair of sunglasses, how should he express himself?
Answer: He just has to open his mouth and ask, so simple.

Whatever.
That's unfair pressure, Skleeve!
Thanks Eric...glad to hear you didn't get ANY RIGHT.
2 right and the bounus. i missed the first one and the math one... that one was dumb.
I concur, Spin. The math question was fixed.
The math one is the only one I got right.
But of course, I'm sick right now.
If I had been well, I would have missed all of them.
