ok let me have a try,
a room has 3 bulbs
me outside room with 3 switches
can only go into room once and then come out again so
1st switch - leave it
2nd switch - leave on for 5 mins
3rd switch - turn it on and go into the room
the bulb turned on is for the 3rd switch
the bulb which is warm is the 2nd
the bulb which is cold is the 1st
:scratch: took me 3 minutes max
solution: I may not be able to have any tools but my hands allow me to touch !
:scratch: took me 3 minutes max
Me too, cos I googled it :embar:

the one you leave on for 5 min is gonna be turned off, but you can feel the two turned off lights when you go in the room and one will be cold(the one that was always off) and the one that was on for five minutes will be warm(cause lightbulbs get warm when they're on) the one thats on is on, and that's obvious 'cause it's the only one thats on.
it took me about three minutes max too... i was scrolling down the page hoping no one had got it yet... but they did... :(

:torture: :torture: :torture: :torture: :torture: :torture: :torture:
looool..evan tho i never actully ever did work it out untill, the person told me the answer:rolleyes: :o
:up:
Answer : leave on light on
turn one light on and off repeatedly...to heat one of the bulbs
Enter the room, the light which is on, is the switch which u tirn on,
the bulb which is hot/warm, is the one u kept turing on and off,
finally the third bulb which is cold is the switch u never touched
:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
