Lateral Thinking Quiz

Perhaps many of you have seen this already, or a different version of it.  For those that haven't, good luck in solving it, and enjoy the answer!   


You are driving in a car at a constant speed.

On your left side is a ledge, with the ground situated a considerable distance below it, and on your right side is a fire engine travelling at the same speed as you.

In front of you is a galloping horse, which is the same size as your car and you cannot overtake it.

Behind you is a helicopter flying at ground level.

Both the horse and helicopter are also travelling at the same speed as you.

What must you do to safely get out of this highly dangerous situation?

(Think really hard before reading the answer)

Like wise, i was really about to analyse this to death.

But, i suppose i should just stop drinking

That's for the laugh!  I enjoyed that!

LOL.  I'll have to pass that one around.  I had another answer, but yours is way funnier.

I was about to pull out a gun and shoot the horse, but apparantly there would just be another one in front of it.

I was seriously giving this one some thought and my outcome before scrolling down was that I was going to have to kill the horse......glad it was just a hypothetical senario...phew, because I love horses!

Musicman....you must have posted just before me....you are so funny!

[Ninny]

Musicman, isn't it funny that when I read this I immediately thought of you?? Ha! Hey I thought the answer was just keep following the horse, I didn't even KNOW I was drinking!! Ha!
