Humor me please and give this a try?!
Question: Are you the weakest link? Below are four (4) questions. You
have to answer them quickly. You can't take your time, answer all of them immediately.
First Question:
You are participating 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 mess up in the next question. To answer the second
question, don't take as much time as you took on the first
question.
Second Question:
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.
Take 1000 and add 40 Now add another 1000. Now add 30..
add another 1000. Now add 20. Now add another 1000. Now add 10.
What is the total? Did you get 5000? The correct answer is actually 4100.
Don't believe it? Check your calculator!
Today is definitely not your day.
Maybe you will get the last question right?
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.

May I have another answers paper..huh?
It shows how we're conditioned to quick answers rather than wait until someone write correctly and spy over his shoulders.
Very good,..send more!
Im most definately THE weakest link, I DID get 5000, I DID say first place, I had NO clue what the little girls name was.
Aaaaand im dumb.
not being mean, but, where wuz the second question? I <3 these kind of things, but i heard all those before. thanx though, it was fun to do again.
I love these little brain teasers especially to keep the mind going at this wee hour of the morning.
But why do you give us the answer so close to the question? I would find it more challenging if perhaps you listed all the questions first, then dropped down a bit and then gave the answers. I answered them all correctly anyway, but next time please try my suggestion, thanks!
I look forward to your next submission.
I got the first and the fourth answer right, but missed the third one. :)
You have not posted the second question. So I've got 2 out of 3 right.
I had to pull out the calculater on that one. goes to show you we can't always trust electronical devices. I like a brain teaser once in awhile. Thanks
Got them all! But the second question disappeared.
