Really think about the answers. I did poorly, by the way!

The giraffe test ...
1) Â How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?
Stop and think about it and decide on your answer before you scroll down.
Â
Â
Â
Â
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.
Â
Â
2) Â How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?Â
Â
Did you say, Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant, and close the
refrigerator?
Wrong Answer.
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 previous actions.
Â
3) Â The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the
animalsÂ
attend.... except one. Which animal does not attend?
Correct Answer: The Elephant. The elephant is in the refrigerator. You just
put him in there.? This tests your memory. Okay, even if you did not answer the
first three questions correctly, you still have one more chance to show your
true abilities.
Â
4)  There is a river you must cross but it is used by crocodiles, and
you
do not have a boat. How do you manage it?
Â
Correct Answer: You jump into the river and swim across. Have you not been
listening? All the crocodiles are attending the Animal Meeting. This tests
whether you learn quickly from your mistakes.
According to AndersonConsulting Worldwide, around 90% of the
professionals
they tested got all questions wrong, but many preschoolers got several correct
answers. AndersonConsulting says this conclusively disproves the theory that
most professionals have the brains of a four-year-old.
