A king decided to let a prisoner try to escape the prison with his life. The king placed 2 marbles in a jar that was glued to a table. One of the marbles was supposed to be black, and one was supposed to be blue.
If the prisoner could pick the blue marble, he would escape the prison with his life. If he picked the black marble, he would be executed. However, the king was very mean, and he wickedly placed 2 black marbles in the jars and no blue marbles. The prisoner witnessed the king only putting 2 black marbles in the jars.
If the jar was not see-through and the jar was glued to the table and that the prisoner was mute so he could not say anything, how did he escape with his life?

Pick one marble. Then smash the jar. The black marble in the jar will roll free for everyone to see. Therefore, for the king to maintain his reputation and not be see as a a liar, he must admit that the unseen marble in the prisoner's hand must be blue.

I hate this puzzle. it's so stupid.
here's the answer:
The prisoner took the first marble from the jar and did not let anyone see the colour, swallowed it and then picked out the second which was black. Everyone assumed the first was the blue one and he was free!!
