A person is standing at the top of a 100mt building, he has
a rope 75mts long and the only way he can come down is
through the rope. He can cut the rope also he can tie the
rope at any point on the building, but he cant jump and
ofcourse dont even think about the stairs :D Find out the
best way he'll come down.

Answer Posted / hans markussen

He cuts 25m of rope, and ties one end to the top. Makes a loop in the other end. Then he treads the 50m rope through the loop. He climbes 25m down, and 25m down on the double rope.
Then he takes the 50m rope and ties it to the house wall somewhere. Then he can climb down the remainding 50m.
Life is easy..... :-)
