Riddle #1

Post by Tristan »

During WWI, there was a bridge connecting Germany and Switzerland. Nobody from Germany was allowed to enter Switzerland, and nobody from Switzerland was allowed to cross to Germany. A guard comes out of his tower every 3 minutes to see if anyone was trying to cross the bridge. If he saw anyone, he told them to go back. A woman in switzerland desperately needed to get to Germany, but knew it would take her at least 6 minutes to cross. But she managed it fine. How?

Walked backwards so that when the guard came out to turn her back she appeared to be crossing in the other direction.
