Ok, maybe the picture was a bit click baity, but this is a game after all and yes you might die. Well not really but who knows, when I was thinking about this it did require a lot of concentration, specially because I did not write anything down.
So... just to make it extra fun, don't write it down just think about this Question/Puzzle with me
Can you think of a way that someone could be their own grandfather?
This has to be a trick question you might say, but it's only tricky, it actually does have an answer. In short yes, I can think of a way someone could be their own grandfather and I don't have to resort to anything so far fetched that It would make everyone cringe.
I will use some fictional names for my characters because it might make following along the logic a bit easier, but it might not be necessary for some. Ok, here we go:
- George married young and had a son named Jose.
- Jose grew up and married young himself, he married an older lady named Dolores who already had a Daughter named Maria from a previous marriage.
- Maria was of age and met George one day, they fell in love and got married.
- George and Maria had a baby boy and named him Jesus.
Here are some facts we can conclude about this confusing dynamics.
- Jose is his father's son and also his father's father in law.
- Dolores is both George's mother in law and his Daughter in law.
- Maria is both George's wife and his daughter in law.
- Jesus is both George's son and his grandson.
- Jesus is both Jose's brother and his grandson.
And finally... because we know two brothers share a grandfather, then Jose has to be his own grandfather... voila!!
Did you get lost?
It's Ok, I confuse myself all the time. Why would I even think about these things you ask? Because games and because of reasons, this is mental flexing now lets pickup the mental dumbbells one more time. This time you can use paper and pen, lets see if the puzzle unfolds for you.
I think I'm too entertained with my own insanity at times.
