[Yiyitama]

Never ahead, ever behind, yet flying swiftly past; for a child, I last forever; for an adult, I`m gone too fast. What am I?

Childhood. Kids want to grow up fast, while adults wish they were young again.

Can I take another stab at it and say "innocence"? As in "child-like innocence"?

That a lot colder than the first one,so no.

Looked it up did you?
And yes.

 

[CounterAttack]

I didn't look it up; that was a pure guess on my part.

Jimmy, scheduled for execution that day, is placed in a room with two other men, each standing behind an electric chair. A voice over the intercom tells Jimmy that one of the two men always tells the truth, and the other always lies. Also, one chair is hooked up to the power supply, while the other is not, and he has no way of telling which is which in either case.

The intercom tells Jimmy that he may ask one of the two men one question before he chooses the chair in which he sits. He is only allowed one question, and may only ask one man. If he chooses the wired chair, he dies, but if he picks the non-wired one, he is free to go. What question does Jimmy ask - either man - in order to survive?

 

[Sir Strange Of The House Lycan]

He asks both of them what would the other person say was the right chair.

 

[CounterAttack]

He can only ask one man. Was that not clear? I'll edit if so.

Edit: Updated. Feel free to have another guess, Lycan.

 

[spartan1077]

If he knows what man tell the truth and what man tells the lie he asks the man who always tells the truth which seat the man who always tells the lie would say is electrocuted

 

[CounterAttack]

He doesn't know who is who:

[spartan1077]

ohhhh okay then welll gimme a sec.

 

[spartan1077]

EDIT SO no one can steal this answer and the reason

 

[CounterAttack]

You ask one person "Which chair would the other person tell me to sit on" and take the opposite one

1) Not the answer I was looking for.
2) One guess per person.
3) The answer should also come with an explanation as to why the question is asked.

You ask one man if he was lying which chair was the good chair. The man who tells the truth will point to the bad chair while the liar would also point to the same chair because he can only tell lies. So regardless of who you ask you will just choose the chair they pick.

That doesn't make any sense. Could you please explain that further?
