You are standing in front of a L-shaped trench. The trench is 5m wide, very deep and continues as far as you can see in both directions. All you found lying around are 2 boards that are strong enough to support your weight, but unfortunately they are both just a bit shorter than 5m. You have no rope, screws, nails or any other way to securely connect the two boards together. All you have are these 2 boards. How do you cross to the other side of the trench?

take of your shirt or pants and tie the two boards together
Hard to explain in written form but here’s my idea:
The 2 boards should end up perpendicular to each other, over the corner of the trench (being L shaped)
Imagine a V shape 5 meters wide (the corner of the trench) and then position the 2 boards as an inverted T over it…
Hope that was clear enough :)
You’re correct, Rool!
The first board lays across the corner, and the second board lays across the first board.
You’re today’s winner.
