    Are you the weakest link?

    Below are four (4) questions. You have to answer them instantly.
    You can't take your time, but must answer all of them immediately.

    OK? Let's find out just how clever you really are.

    First Question: You are participating in a race. You overtake the second
    person.
    What position are you in?





    Answer:
    If you answer 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.



    To answer the second question, don't take as much time as you took for the
    first one.

    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 are in first place you
    lapped the last runner

    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?

    Did you get 5000?





    The correct answer is actually 4100.

    Don't believe it? Okay, check with 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.
    Quick, what is the name of the fifth daughter?

    Answer: Nunu? NO! Of course not. Her name is Mary. Read the again.

    You ARE the WEAKEST LINK!!!!!!

    Ok I don't wanna be a smart ass but.....what if.....


    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 are in first place you
    lapped the last runner

    what if there was someone in front of you or two people in front of you...lapping the last guy doesnt automatically mean that you are the only one that did it.
    HAHA
    YOU are the WEAKEST Link

    cause 30+40+20+10 is 100. ONE HUNDRED, is different than ONE THOUSAND. lol, took me awhile to.
