20.01.2022 A teacher brought balloons and gave one to each student in the classroom. He ordered them to write down their names, left them on the floor and took out the students. Then he told them: "They have 5 minutes to find the balloons with their own names." The students entered and while each one looked for his name the 5 minutes were over. No one could find theirs He later told them: "Now everyone grab any balloon and hand it to the owner." In a minute all the students had their ow...n balloons !!
