Entry #13
It's boring here.
4 men want to cross a bridge which will explode in 17 minutes.
Man #1 needs one minute to cross the bridge.
Man #2 needs 2 minutes.
Man #3 needs 5 minutes.
Man #4 needs 10 minutes.
The bridge can carry a maximum of two men at once.
It is very dark and in order to cross the bridge they need to carry a flashlight with them.
They only have one flashlight.
PM me with the answer.
PM from Cericon:
There is a hole in the wall that they walk through.
No. This riddle can and must be solved with pure logic. It's possible.
PM from Ehwaz003:
OK, I think I know the answer: they all cross the bridge at once, with the flashlight of course.
Why? Because, according to your picture, the TNT is a bit under the bridge, so with 4 people on a bridge which can only carry 2 at one, the bridge will bend, BUT it will stop from breaking because it lands on the big red box of TNT, and as a support, it will make the bridge last until all 4 have safely crossed the bridge.
Nice idea, honestly. But there really is no such trick in this riddle.

I curse MS Paint for the loss of color in this picture.
I repeat - It is possible to solve this.
