Brain teaser

RE: Brain teaser
(August 27, 2008 at 7:20 pm)Darwinian Wrote: You are walking along a pathway when you come to a fork in the road. On each of the new paths is a guard. You know that one of the paths will lead to certain death and the other to safety. You can only ask one of the guards one question and you also know that one of them always lies and the other always tells the truth.

Which guard do you ask and what do you ask him to ensure you take the correct path?
Ask either guard which path the other guard would say led to safety. Take the other path.
