Slylock Fox
January 10th, 2008
Max Mouse presented the following challenge: A beaver working at a construction site boasted he could outdo his 400-pound gorilla coworker. The beaver said he could haul something in a wheelbarrow over to the dump truck that the gorilla wouldn’t be able to wheel back. Slylock Fox knows how that is possible, do you?
Answer — The beaver will haul the gorilla over to the dump truck.

It was a little confusing at first, but I thought about it, and concluded that the beaver is weaker than the gorilla, of course, and the gorilla can haul anything the beaver can, and maybe more!! But, if the beaver hauled the gorilla over, the gorilla could not haul hisself over too! So, the beaver will haul he gorilla over!!!! HA!!

huh? isn’t the gorilla too heavy for the beaver if he is 400 pounds? This answer doesn’t make any sense.

if the gorilla walked himself… wouldnt that be the same…
i thought it was easy!!

Thats very funny. I would never have guessed it. I had to look at the answer to see if I got it right. As soon as I saw the answer I laughed very hard and loud!

I don’t get how the beaver, so small, would haul the huge gorilla over there and the huge gorilla wouldn’t be able to haul him back!?!?

My guess was that the dump truck was downhill from them.

my guess is he rolled the wheel barrow tripped him back into it, and did some magic to get him into the dumptruck
