Description of the Challenge
Today’s puzzle requires a thorough analysis and a basic understanding of physics. However, even if you are not an expert in physics, a good observational skill might be enough to solve the puzzle. The puzzle image shows five people, labeled A through E. E is about to push a rock down a slope. The rock is spaced far enough apart for a head to fit inside.Situation Analysis
At the bottom of the slope, D is stuck, only his head sticking out. Next to it, a swing carries another rock, adding to its weight. Below the high part of this swing, deadly spikes threaten C, lying just below. B and A are positioned further to the side. The question is simple: if E pushes the rock, who dies first?
