Riddle: A farmer has 26 six sheep. One has died. How many are left...? The answer is 19... but why?
Answer: There are two ways you can do this. Just ask the question and not the answer... that will drive people crazy.. or give the answer with the question. Okay here goes..It's all in how you say it. It's not 26 sheep.. it's twenty-sick sheep...hence the answer being 19 left. When you say it fast enough, the average person thinks you are really saying 26 sheep. Twenty six and twenty sick so similiar that is it almost impossible to tell them apart.. try it..it is fool proof!!
