Quiz 3 snuck a genuinely useful life skill in among the trivia, plus one of the best logic puzzles we have ever run. Worth revisiting for both.
What does DRSABCD stand for in first aid?
Danger, Response, Send for help, Airway, Breathing, CPR, Defibrillator. It is the step-by-step action plan for helping someone who is unresponsive, and it is taught in every Australian first aid course.
Easily the most useful thing ever hidden inside a family quiz. Worth making sure the whole household knows it.
What is the Egyptian statue with a human head and lion body called?
The Great Sphinx of Giza. Carved from limestone over four thousand years ago, it guards the pyramids with a human head on a lion's body, and nobody is entirely certain whose face it wears.
How do you solve the mislabeled fruit bags puzzle?
Three bags labelled APPLES, ORANGES and MIXED, and every label is wrong. The trick: take one piece of fruit from the MIXED bag. Whatever you draw is that bag's true contents, because the label lies. From there the other two solve themselves.
One draw, full information. Logic puzzles do not get more elegant than that.
That was Quiz 3: a life-saving acronym, an ancient guardian and one perfect puzzle. Not bad for fifteen questions.
