Choose an answer

A.The first door, using water on the lava
B.The third door, if you can swim
C.None of the doors
D.The second door with the lions. Since they haven't eaten in 5 years they will have died.
Hint: It's a 16-word phrase with 68 letters, starting with "T".

Answer

The second door with the lions. Since they haven't eaten in 5 years they will have died.

Why this is the answer

The trick is realizing lions can't survive five years without food, so by the time you open that door they are already dead.
