You are trapped in a room. The only exits are two doors. There are no windows or any other way out other than the two doors. One of these doors leads to freedom and the other leads to death. You do not know which is which.The doors are guarded by identical twins, one is guarding each. One twin always lies and one always tells the truth. You do not know which is which, or who is guarding what door. You are allowed to ask one twin one question (not one question for each twin, one question total) so that you can choose the freedom door. What question do you ask so that you are sure you are going through the freedom door?
