A woman who lived in Germany during World War II wanted to cross the German/Swiss border in order to escape Nazi pursuers. The bridge which she is to cross is a half mile across, over a large canyon. Every three minutes a guard comes out of his bunker and checks if anyone is on the bridge. If a person is caught trying to escape German side to the Swiss side they are shot. If caught crossing the other direction without papers they are sent back. She knows that it takes at least five minutes to cross the bridge, in which time the guard will see her crossing and shoot her. How does she get across?

After a minute and a half of crossing the bridge, she makes a u-turn and make it seem like she was from the other side trying to cross without papers. The guard will just “send her back” in effect making her cross the bridge.
Finally a correct answer to this one. You are today’s winner.
