Can u find the answer to dis brain teaser?!
Question: A man in a restaurant asked a waiter for a juice glass, a dinner plate, water, a match, and a lemon wedge. The man poured enough water onto the plate to cover it.
"If you can get the water on the plate into this glass without touching or moving this plate, I will give you $100," the man said. "You can use the match and lemon to do this."
A few minutes later, the waiter walked away with $100 in his pocket. How did the waiter get the water into the glass?

dude thats a great Question. I think its gotta do with the lemon soaking up the water or him sucking the water of the plate, into is motuh then spitting the water into the cup. I think the lemon and match are trying to trick you. If that isnt right, can you email the answer??? thats relly interesting and i REALLY want to know
PLEASE VOTE ME AS BEST ANSWER
he squezzed the lemon juse into it
oh god i used to know the answer!! dang i forgot!! lol
First, the waiter stuck the match into the lemon wedge, so that it would stand straight. Then he lit the match, and put it in the middle of the plate with the lemon. Then, he placed the glass upside-down over the match. As the flame used up the oxygen in the glass, it created a small vacuum, which sucked in the water through the space between the glass and the plate. Thus, the waiter got the water into the glass without touching or moving the plate.
am i right or what
He got another person to pour the water into the glass for him.
He already had $100, duh!
My guess is that he sucked the water off the plate little by little and spat it into the glass, though this doesn't utilized either the match or the lemon.
He either tipped the table so that it poured off, or he lit the tablecloth on fire and quickly did it while the man was distracted.....

You can try this experiment at home with appropriate supervision.
more of a science experiment than a brain teaser if u ask me.
The waiter took the match, and lite the plate, and water, to flames. Then he took the lemon and squeezed the juice into the glass.
sucked the water into his mouth and spit it into the cup?!

Not quite sure, but im thinking if you put the glass over the plate and used the match you could evaporate the water into the glass somehow. im not sure what you would use the lemon wedge for though. Plus I don't think you could evaporate a whole plate of water in a few mins with one match.
He stuck the lit match in the lemon slice, put the glass over it and when the match burned up the oxygen all the water went up into the glass and the plate formed a seal against the glass which he then turned over without touching the plate, right?
Could he stick the match in the lemon wedge, light it and turn the glass upside down over the burning match/lemon wedge, then as the inside of the glass runs out of oxygen the fire goes out and then somehow the water is sucked up into the glass?

The man put the match in the lemon, put it on the plate, light it, the put the glass over the lemon. When the match started to run out of air it tried to get the oxygen particles from the wter so it sucked it up into the glass and then burnt out.
He eats the lemon and bend peal into airtight curved circle; next puts lemon peal into his mouth put that on dish as water is sucked up into his mouth; next spits peal and water into glass.
