Subject: Can you get everyone across the river?
Written By: Dude111 on 03/30/08 at 8:21 am
This is a Japanese IQ test to see how well you can think or plan ahead.
Believe me its not as easy as it may seem!

That isn't so much an IQ test as it is a logic problem. I figured it out, but it took about 10 minutes.

I managed to get it without Ant's help.....question... why doesn't the prisoner just run whenever he's left alone?
Oh wait its a Japanese logic problem so it must have to do with honor...I swear the American would run first chance he got.... heck he isn't even handcuffed.
In my scenario the prisoner wourl push the cop into the ocean and then take off with the raft ;D

LOL! I was wondering that about the thief myself.
Also, why can't the dad stay with the girls or the mom with the boys - especially in the presence of a cop? Is there some kind of conspiracy incest thing going on that we are missing? ???

For some reason I like watching them punch eachother more then solving the problem. Maybe tomarrow I'll try solving it.

Is it all down to the single mother syndrome?
