Could you push the cork into the big part of the bottle so that the neck is free and you can get the coin out when you tip it upside down?
yep, you got it! push the cork into the bottle and turn it upside down to get the coin.
heres another:
Two men and two women stand on a riverbank. They would like to get on the other side with a boat. Unfortunately, the boat can only carry as much as two people.
The 4 people can not cross the river at the same speed. One women is able to cross it in 5 minutes and the other in 10. The men can cross it in 20 and 25 minutes. (This means that if a men is in the boat, the minimum cross time - one way - will be 20 minutes.)
How can they cross the river in one hour ?
