If the answer is 50%, then you have a 25% change of selecting the answer.

But if the answer is 25%, you have a 50% change of selecting the answer.

therefore, this is a paradox, and there is no answer.

A hole
>>
two unsolvable riddles, until I figured them out myself while on LSD.

What happens when an irresistable force meets an immovable object?

"The unimagineable"
(though I like Supermans answer better: "they surrender"...)


AND:

Which came first, the chicken or the egg?

(and NO its NOT the biblical "god put the fowl in the air.... " fairy tale...)

The Answer: "The Egg"

at some time a long time ago, a slightly twisted bird mated with a slightly twisted bird. It laid an egg. That slightly twisted bird mated with another slightly twisted bird. I made an usual embroyo in an egg. OUt came that slightly twisted bird, which was a progenitor of a chicken.

this continued for quite a while.
THEN one day after all this, an EGG was laid, unlike the others. And out hatched a CHICKEN, from that egg....

There are four of them by spoons and lunch schedule.

They got there long enough for a spider to build a web on their tent. So at least a day or two.

The oars would suggest they got there by canoe or row boat.

Assuming they didn't bring a chicken with them I'd say there's a town or at least a farm nearby.

Wind is blowing from south of trees are accurately drawn and in Russia.

Based on the shadow I'd say it's between noon and four. Most likely 3:00.

I can't tell which is Sasha. Kolya is looking in his bag. I'm gonna bet that's a tripod sticking out the Vashya's bag. So either Sasha is catching butterflies or cooking. So it's the 8th and Petya is cooking and Sasha is catching butterflies or it's the 10th and Sasha is cooking and Petra is catching butterflies. I must be missing something.

by very definition, a "hole" has no bottom.

if it has a bottom, it is a well or a cavern or whatever. a hole is just an opening to pass thru

It is wrong, the correct answer is 90 minutes.

The text say he should take one at each 30 minutes, this is the condition

The text does not say he toke one at the start

so
if Time == 30
Time =0

1. There are four tourists

four spoons on the picnic blanket and four names on the duty list.

2. They arrived a few days ago

A spider's web has appeared between their tent and a tree in that time.

3. They got there by boat

Note the oars by the tree.

4. No, a village is not far

..because there's a chicken wandering around.

5. The wind is blowing from the south

A flag that shows the wind direction is on top of the tent. (To tell which direction is which, look at the branches - they're normally bigger on the southern side of trees - if you're in the Northern Hemisphere.)

6. It’s morning

Take the answer from question five to figure out east and west then work out the time based on the shadows.

7. Alex is catching butterflies

His net is behind the tent.

8. Colin was on duty yesterday

Colin is rummaging through his backpack (marked with a 'c'); Alex is catching butterflies; James is taking photos as his tripod can be seen sticking out of his bag. This leaves Peter - then, according to the list, that means Colin was on duty yesterday.

9. Today is August 8th...

According to the list, Peter is on duty, and there is a watermelon - which ripen in August - on the ground

a sieve. okay, that is better.
I guess I was thinking conceptually, but since it is a middle ages? riddle, the answer in context should be a physical object.
