Actually this Puzzle has no perfect plan for the boy to escape given by the Floater of this; so anyone's plan is as good as others!!
These are the escape Plans given by my grandsons and a Grand Daughter
1.He grabs the snake and uses it to climb on to the main treee trunk
- He then throws snake at the crocodiles
- He then uses his weight to push the tree trunk onto the lion, crushing it and then safely makes his escape.
2.He swings his branch and hits the snake in the face
- The snake falls into the river and the crocodiles eat the snake
- He jumps down on to the axe handle which flicks the sharp edge of the axe onto the lions face
- He then escapes
3 Wait for the birds (are they vultures or hawks? I would like to think they are) to fly up to the tree where they land and peck on the surprised snake
- Whilst the snake is distracted, he makes his way safely to the tree trunk and uses the broken branch to keep away the lion and with axe he kills the lion
- While he swings off the tree trunk he pushes at it with such force that the trunk topples over the crocodiles heads and kills them
- this floating tree trunk also provides a bridge for the boy to walk across the river
- the vultures have a feast on the dead lion and snake, also possibly crocs..
4.The boy will catch the snake with his hand and throw it on lion, which which will make the Lion to run away, and boy gets down
from the tree and go to safety.
All of them as well as Raji madam, Prasadji escape plan are worth trying, but will anyone of the plan be successful?
