The following short quiz consists of 4 questions and tells whether you are
truly a "professional".
Scroll down for the answers. The questions are not that difficult.
1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?
The correct answer is: Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe and close
the door. (This question tests whether you tend to do simple things in an
overly complicated way.)
2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?
Wrong Answer: Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant and close the
refrigerator.
Correct Answer: Open the refrigerator, take out the giraffe, put in the
elephant and close the door. (This tests your ability to think through the
repercussions of your actions.)
3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference, all the animals attend
except one. Which animal does not attend?
Correct Answer: The Elephant, because the Elephant is in the refrigerator.
(This tests your memory.)
OK, even if you did not answer the first three questions correctly, you
still have one more chance to show your abilities.
4. There is a river you must cross. But it is inhabited by crocodiles.
How do you manage it?
Correct Answer: You swim across, because all the Crocodiles are attending
the Animal Meeting! (This tests whether you learn quickly from your
mistakes.)
According to Andersen Consulting Worldwide, around 90% of the professionals
they tested got all questions wrong. But many preschoolers got several
correct answers.
Andersen Consulting says that this conclusively disproves the theory that
most professionals have the brains of a four year old!
