If you are in a cave with no exits and only have a matchbook handy, how do you get out?

Question

There is a solid answer

You have to use more than one match

You need to think more outside the box . . .but within the box of THREE matches

Answer 1

strike three matches. on the third strike you are out.

Answer 2

Dude,

There are no exits. You can't exit without an exit. But if you mean there is still a way out even though there is no exit well than you need to light something on fire with a match and watch where the smoke goes and follow it as it will lead to where the air is leaving and hopefully you can get out that way.

It would be cool if you could describe the situation a bit more so that way I could give you a better answer.

Answer 3

First, take off your shirt, and tear it into long strips of cloth. Light the first strip, and use the light to look around the cave. If that strip starts to burn out, light the next.

Look for an old lantern with some kerosene in it, as well as a sturdy stick. When you have both, wrap the strips around the stick, add kerosene--now you have a torch.

Continue through the cave, when you come to an intersection, choose a direction based on the behavior of the smoke from the torch.

If you fall into a pool of water, don't worry. And if a bunch of rats jump on your back, just grab them and throw them against the walls.

Keep following the smoke. Eventially you will come to a small opening with a ladder. Climb out of the cave.

Answer 4

As per the question, there are no exits, but you have entered the cave through an entrance (not an exit).So,simply light the matches ,find the entrance and just get out.

Answer 5

You use the match to match your face with my ***. Assuming, you aren't in the cave, then my *** is already out so it won't take much to get out my upper half as well.

You'll note this method gets over the no exit conundrum, but you can be in a cave with no exits. The entrance just has to cave in once you've entered..

Answer 6

Well, obviously there must be a way out, since you found a way in. But, when you light the match, the match will blow with any breeze that there happens to be. Hopefully you have a candle so you don't have to keep wasting matches, but even so, follow opposite the way the candle is blowing, heading towards where the fresher air is coming from.

Answer 7

If there truly is no exit you could try digging your way out. Another possibility could be, that there may be an entrance labeled "Entrance Only, Not an exit," and the cave truly does not have an "Official Exit." If that were the case you could go out the entrance door anyway.

Answer 8

Pick up all the head portions of the match stick , put all the heads inside a HOLE and give a sudden pressure by throughing a big stone .You will find this dynamite work.Make sure that you close the packed HOLE with sand or stones before applying sudden pressure by throughing BIG stone on the HOLE.Work out this trick until your stock of matchsticks last or you find your exit

Answer 9

take the first match to look for a stick of dinamite go to the stick lite it the watch the cave wall blow up lite the third match and see if there is a wind current to follow

Answer 10

If U couldn't go out because there's not exit, go out from the entrance where you came in. Right? You don't need anything, just a common sense.

Answer 11

Find the entrance dumb-A$$
a cave has to have an exit if it has and entrance
meaning how did you get in the cave?
