Einsteins intelligance quiz: rules, you cannot use google, or ask other people. you must use your own mind. When Einstein wrote this he said 98% of the people in the world could not answer this. ready? here it is.:Can you solve this riddle?

Einstein's Intelligence Quiz
Einstein wrote this quiz last century. He said that 98% of the people in the world cannot solve the quiz.

There are 5 houses in 5 different colors
In each house lives a person with a different nationality
These 5 owners drink a certain type of beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar, and keep a certain pet
No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar or drink the same drink.
Here's the question: Who owns the fish?
The Brit lives in a red house
The Swede keeps dogs as pets
The Dane drinks tea
The green house is on the left of the white house
The green house owner drinks coffee
The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds
The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill
The man living in the house right in the middle drinks milk
The Norwegian lives in the first house
The man who smokes Blend lives next door to the one who keeps cats.
The man who keeps horses lives next door to the man who smokes Dunhill
The owner who smokes Blue Master drinks beer
The German smokes Prince
The Norwegian lives next to the blue house
The man who smokes Blend has a neighbor who drinks water
With these 15 clues the problem is solvable.

This is not einstein's quiz.
There are no facts it is einstein's quiz.
The only reason it's called that, is so that people will look it up and it will become famous.
It's as fake as einstein's dialogue with his teacher about faith.

Did it in this order, using paint:

The man living in the house right in the middle drinks milk
The Norwegian lives in the first house
The Norwegian lives next to the blue house
The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill (Norwegian, because green lives left of white house, Norwegian neighbours blue, therefore can't be green, he's not Brit, who owns red)
The man who keeps horses lives next door to the man who smokes Dunhill
The green house owner drinks coffee (Can't be 3rd house because that's milk, can't be 5th because he is to the left of the white, therefore is 4th)
The green house is on the left of the white house
The Brit lives in a red house, the Dane (3rd, because all other colours are taken)
The owner who smokes Blue Master drinks beer, the Dane drinks tea (They can only go in house 2 or 5. I tried both situations and the other leaves both the German and Swede to go in house 4, so it doesn't work. Blue Masters guy goes in 5 and Dane in 2)
The German smokes Prince (Can't be in any other house, so house 4)
The man who smokes Blend has a neighbor who drinks water (Only one drink left, water for Norwegian, Blend then must be house 2)
The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds (Brit is only one left)
The man who smokes Blend lives next door to the one who keeps cats. (Brit keeps birds, can't be him, must be Norwegian)
The Swede keeps dogs as pets (Only nationality left)

Therefore, as the only one without a pet, it must be the German with the fish.

I produced this on paint once finished:

You are all wrong. We all know that the german has the fifth pet but we cant assume that the fifth pet is the fish. There is no word fish in the clues so we have no basis to assume that the fish is the 5th pet. The german can own a tiger or a wolf instead,so one thing's for sure the german has the fifth pet.
Don't be a fool. Stay cool. :cool:

If we're classing Amphibians as Fish I'd like to nominate the Axolotl.
