| May 15, 2015 at 12:30 | comment | added | A E | @BlueBells, as per your image, wouldn't the un-nailed plank just fall out? Are you sure you want to have it over the top one and under the bottom one? (I'm assuming your diagram is the view from above). | |

No other nails/hardware clarification added.

| May 15, 2015 at 1:30 | comment | added | David James | No way to answer this for certain. How would we know if the "contraption" would fall apart or not? We don't know what forces are being applied to lift it and how it will be lifted. We don't know if the wood planks were almost ready to snap before beginning "construction" of the triangle. Also, a 2nd nail could be used. The problem stated given only 1 nail but didn't state he couldn't use a 2nd nail (maybe from his own supply of nails). Basically another badly worded question is what this boils down to. | |

| May 14, 2015 at 20:04 | comment | added | MackTuesday | My solution: Bob refuses the bet and buys his own beer. Because really, it's just a beer, why bother? | |

| May 14, 2015 at 19:28 | comment | added | Mark N | I will accept the answer that properly solves the problem (and receives the most votes) since there will be multiple possible solutions. | |

| May 14, 2015 at 18:34 | comment | added | Bailey M | So I guess that with the "murder is not allowed" qualifier, my answer of "hammer the nail into John's head until he cries Mercy and gets you a beer" is probably not valid? | |
