Brain Teasers for Adults

Three Exit Doors

You’re trapped in a room with three possible exits, but each one seems dangerous:

  1. The first door leads to a room completely engulfed in flames.
  2. The second door opens to a room where a deadly assassin is waiting, ready to strike.
  3. The third door leads to a room with a lion that hasn’t eaten in three years.

Which door offers the safest way out?

Answer: The Lion Room is the Safest!

At first glance, all three doors seem dangerous—but there’s a trick hidden in the details!

  • A room full of fire? You’d be burned instantly.
  • An assassin waiting to strike? Not a good idea.
  • A lion that hasn’t eaten in three years? Sounds terrifying… but think about it—no animal can survive that long without food. That lion would be long dead!

So, the safest way out is through the lion’s room, because there’s no real threat left inside.
