And as you hand the lantern to the janitor and he and the professor vanish through the darkness crossing the bridge you hear the professor's voice shouting from a distant spot: "Did I say seventeen? sorry, I meant seven"
What's truly hilarious is that he wouldn't have said it to save himself. Seven minutes means that he wouldn't make it across the bridge either. I have a feeling that the Janitor might not wait up for him, however.
Step 1: tell the zombies one of them have green eyes. this will buy you enough time to cross the bridge regardless of what strategy you want to use as long as it's one hour.
This riddle is unironically has scared me more than any horror movie. The visuals and music is just so unsettling. I couldn't turn corners in fear of the zombies when I was younger.
I figured it out myself. The problem was, it took me six minutes to figure it out! So me and the lab assistant went across first, kept running, and made a pact never to speak of this event again.
You could've gone back for the janitor and still have 3 mins to spare you heartless monster. Leave the prof tho, he was old as fuck anyway and he made the problem in the first place, so he should deal with the consequences, I'd leave him there anyway since the 17 mins could easily been 16 or so since it was just an estimate, could've been just a few seconds off and the 2 people crossing the bridge would be fucked, it's just not worth the risk.
Lol you didn't even need to cut the bridge because the zombies are dumb as hell anyways, so they would probably go all at once, causing the bridge to fall lmao
My teacher did this riddle, and there were so many unique answers Niamh: “Well they didn’t say you couldn’t sacrifice anyone…” Millie: “use the boast as a raft” Annie: “the professor stays on the other side with the lantern and knocks out the zombies with his cane, then walks across” Beth: “cut open the lantern, start a fire, and burn the zombies to a crisp.”
It's so frightening to think that there is a moment where everybody but YOU is on the safe side... And the assistant must go to the danger zone to save YOU, the one who started all this mess. And you are *_standing in the darkness_* waiting over 12 MINUTES, hoping the assistant will come back...
there is a second solution where you let the assistant run back first and you run back with the lantern second. first solution 2,1,10,2,2 = 17; second solution 2,2,10,1,2
This is so nostalgic. I was a kid when I first watched it and I had nightmares but looking back, I’ve seen scarier lol. Thank you for a good riddle and my kid nightmare fuel.
It took me like 2 mintues to solve, it's quite simple really if you figure out the time of a bridge crossing is given by the slowest person crossing it at a time
Yep I can do it in one minute, but the lab assistant looks kind of cute so maybe two, But then she will start getting all upset about the old man who is like her grandfather or something, gees chicks today. So I would have to play the hero and go back for the others. Now how great would I look if I let them go ahead while I waited here? Is that her coming back now? she loves me and we are saved! No, wait she has cut the ropes to the bridge!!
When he said “Minimize the time wasted by the two slowest people” I thought so throw them into the river....I think something is wrong with my mind set 😂😂
"17 minutes before they get here... Hmm... give me some time to work this out... hmm... Yes, that's it! In this order, it takes exactly 17 minutes." "That's great but now the zombies are 16 minutes away." "Shit!"
You said only 2 people could cross the bridge so if a horde of zombies take it then wont they all collapse making cutting the bridge completely irrelevent?
well what if the zombies smart enough so they cross the bridge 2 by 2 u know maybe the zombies are professor zombies because they came from lab, thats mean they are pretty smart
Fluffy Marimo how wud u know that all of them wud go at the same time?!? This is just an extra precaution that NO ONE GETS KILLED!!!! And ends up like the zombies
Rj Pena its a theory and i can debunk it if the zombies were so smart they would not fall into the bridge when collapsed and that one zombie will not stand on the bridge because he knows that f he does he gonna fall of hmmmm?
the bridge can hold 2 PERSONS at a time, the weight of the zombies are not specified, and they specified though there are differences of weight among the persons too, any combination of persons can cross the bridge without breaking it, moreover that u just can not wait for the zombies to kill you. Sorry but your theory dosen't make any sense at all.
How to beat the zombies: step one: dig 3 blocks down step two: place block above you step three: wait for the sun to rise step four: zombies burn in sunlight
I was thinking that if you sent the professor and the janitor first with the lantern it would be ten minutes and then you and the other girl could run across without the lantern and it would be 12 in total
Fun Fact, if you send the assistant back in step 2 the results are the same: you and assitant go = 2 assistant return = + 2 (4) professor and janitor go = + 10 (14) you return = +1 (15) you and assistant go again = + 2 (17)
@@kouckz3856 sory, but in this case you're wrong, the video at 2:07 is the same situation, you and the lab assisstant go, but you only count the slower time that is the lab assistant, you don't add the two times, otherwise no solution would the workable.
I'm sure a lot of people must have already commented so but the solution in the video is not the only one. It also works if the Lab Assistant (instead of the Internship student) comes back with the lantern (I'm referring to this part of the solution: 2:37 )
@@goodstuff-hr9jn yeah the two methods are more or less equivalent, both you and the lab assistent need to carry the lantern back across the bridge once, so switching the two doesn't change the final result. The general solution is: you+lab go across -> either you or lab go back -> janitor+prof go across -> the other of you or lab go back -> you and lab go across. Both cases involve 1 trip at your speed, one trip at professor speed and 3 trips at lab assistent speed.
@@todayisthedayofsalvation It does work. You and the lab assistant cross, and 2 minutes have elapsed. Then she goes back with the lantern, and 4 minutes have elapsed. The professor and the janitor cross, and 14 minutes have elapsed. You take the lantern and go back, and 15 minutes have elapsed. Finally, you and the assistant cross the bridge one final time, and the 17 minutes are up when you get to the other side.
As Professor Farnsworth once famously said: I'm afraid were going to have to use... math! Also, this professor already used up some time figuring out how long till the zombies arrive :)
You can find the perfect solution in like 2-3 minutes. After finding it, you realise you only have like 14-15 minutes left to actually implement it. :)
+tahi laci Yeah this actually took me 8 minutes to work out, so as the plan starts to execute, the zombies catch up to the professor and janitor and only the lab assistant lives. LOL!
+tahi laci Well considering how fast the professor figured out how long it would take for the zombies to get there i think that he could figure out the best way to go across in 1 minute, which is all that is needed.
+tahi laci Hopefully you figure it out on your way to the bridge. Otherwise, here's the alternative plan: 1. Figure out the plan and realize you've spent too much time thinking for it to now work. Come up with the alternative plan. (6 minutes) 2. Run across with the lab assistant. (8 minutes) 3. Return with the lantern. (9 minutes) 4. Cross with the janitor. (14 minutes) 5. Return with the lantern. (15 minutes) 6. Tell the professor you hope he now realizes how unwise it was of him to be messing with the undead. Then tell him you're shocked he didn't have some kind of escape planned out in advance. He could have even had an up to date plan posted at all exits and conducted regular zombie drills; but it's all too late now. (16 minutes) 7. Run across the bridge. Even if he tries to follow you in the dark you're safe because there's still only two people on the bridge. (17 minutes) 8. Cut the ropes.
“The professor keeps muttering why he shouldn’t have given the zombies night vision.” *A couple minutes before...* Narrator: Now is not the time for regrets. You need to get out safely.
"Since the janitor has to slow down for the old professor, who keeps muttering that he probably shouldn't have given the zombies night vision." How about we don't make zombies in the first place.
*A SAFER SOLUTION?* After that first trip across (2mins) _You_ stay there & let the Lab Assistant go back with lantern (4mins) & next the Janitor & the Professor come across with the lantern (14mins) & _then_ You go back for the Lab Assistant with the lantern (15mins) & finally You & the Lab Assistant cross one last time (17mins). This way may be better than the way suggested in the video because the odds that the Old Professor & Janitor will be more responsible & trustworthy enough to _Not_ pre-maturely cut the bridge until you come back is better because they'll already be safe on the other side of the bridge & from my personal experience, as a general rule, *_I don't trust LAB ASSISTANTS or MILLENIALS!_* Lol! Peace.
Maya Rivera exactly. Once the Professor & Janitor are on the safe side of the bridge & seeing that they're slower, there is no reason for them to stick around. They should just keep moving away from the bridge.
Just carry the janitor and grandpa across one at a time while you carry them just make them hold the lantern, after you carry them both across just pop back for the lab assistant. Even if it takes you 3 min including rest stops, it should only take you 8 min total for them both then 1 min for running back for the assistant and 2 min for both of you to get to safety. So you can do this in about 11 min.
You can't do that since the bridge can only hold 2 people max since it's an old and weak bridge *1:09* but i see your point just carrying the professor and janitor so you can run faster and eventually reach the bridge in just 4 minutes
Carrying someone will slow them down, perhaps even more so than if they had just walked, you can't quantify time saved, but it's not the same because you're neglecting the extra weight
Hahaha, yes this is true! The narrator also says, 'you can barely see without the lantern'. 'You' refers to the fastest guy, so only 'you' need the light haha
No one found any loophole. If you believe running with someone else on your back or pulling the lever up is a loophole, you don't know how riddles work.
There's no need to cut the ropes once you've made it to the other side because: 1. The zombies don't have a flashlight. 2. They don't know the bridge can only support two at a time.
+Manoj Niraula point 1, the zombies have nightvision as the prof stated point 2 exactly you're right! but their body mass must be lighter than live human though
+akhmad fadli Ok, so let's assume 2 zombies weigh less than 2 humans. There's many more than 2 zombies, though, and the difference in mass can't be enough for 3 zombies to weigh less than 2 humans, unless you've got zombies that are missing large portions of their bodies. Also, if there's only 2 or 3 zombies, 4 people (even if one is an old professor) could almost definitely handle them. Better question is why the professor didn't invent a way of controlling or killing the zombies. I mean one hand grenade tossed properly would easily wipe out the few zombies shown...
***** And? What does that have to do with me? I think his reasoning, though, is that they're rotting corpses, thus missing skin, maybe parts of limbs, etc, which wouldn't be more of a difference than the weight difference there'd likely be between the lab assistant and the janitor
Yeah, the obvious answer is to not use the goddamn lamp. It's a fucking bridge with two rope rails on both sides, so you can't get lost, you can't fall... it's a pretty obvious thing to do.
filipinofortunecookie Yes because it would be impossible for them to just yell that they are safely across... sarcasm. Besides, bridges like the one shown in the video, always wobble from side to side as someone is walking on it, so when the wobbling stops, they have crossed the bridge. Or just give the lantern to the ones who pass the bridge first, thus being able to see when they have crossed it.
BadApple The narrator never said anything about there being incomplete parts on the bridge, so we can conclude that the bridge is completely intact, thus my solution is still correct.
+aDotFromTheFuture the narrator also says you need a lamp , the solution requires you to make allowance for the lamp. " any one crossing must either hold a the lantern or stay close to someone who does" so your solution can't not include it.
+Jazmin Barajas i think he ment, the fast guy carry the old man, come back with the lantern, carry the janitor and go back for the girl. It's quicker that way.
Ale Ro Nothing is ever said about there being broken planks though. Merely that the bridge is old and can therefore only support two at a time. Furthermore, it is said that the lantern is just because it is too dark out to see without it, thus nothing is stopping anyone from simply approaching the bridge lit and then walking across blind. Nothing but the stated "There are no tricks, you can't swing across etc." or in other words _"Stop finding clever ways to solve my riddles,_ do it my way or leave"
Imagine having to wait in the dark on the wrong side and not knowing if the others have abandoned you and already left. If I was the professor or janitor I’d be scared shitless.
You break the professor's legs and let him to be killed by his own, inhumane and ungodly creations. Send the assistant with the janitor across, wait till she returns and gtfo.
It said they had to get across an *old* rope bridge. It's probably worn down with lots of holes in the planks. Plus it's night and they could barely see without the lantern.
In my experience Janitors are a lot more trust worthy then scientists. I'd send the janitor accross with the lantern, because he won't cut the rope and doom everyone else. Then have him signal with the lantern, kill the professor by pushing him off the cliff and escaping with the lab assistant. If the scientist doubts his own math, or lied about the math, I wouldn't leave him or the lab assistant alone at the other side of the bridge. Also you shouldn't go over first, because you'd also cut the rope.

Yes that lab assistant is totally going to come back towards the zombies to save me with perhaps 0 minutes to spare, and her being the slowest of us two, and with me being the one who released the zombies. I feel perfectly safe having explained my plan which just leaves me alone on the zombie side of the bridge, totally sure someone will come back to rescue me.
Well in that case, get the lab assistant to take the lantern back to the janitor and the professor. Then, she'll have to wait there for you to bring it back so she can escape! Personally though, I'd just take the lab assistant with me and leave the professor and the janitor behind. They'll only slow us down...and it gives me a chance to get closer with the cute lab assistant. xD
thank you so much . the kind of explanation u did it through animation is unimaginable . first i saw other utube solution didnot able to understand but finally through ur animation , life become easily
Stammer091 I am making it dramatic so. Let the guy be A, Girl be B, Janitor be C and Old Man be D. Now A and B go first, A returns promising B that he will save them all, time consumed is 3 mins. Now C and D goes nd time taken is 10 mins so total time consumed is 13 mins. Now B(girl) comes back running on her knees to save the love of her life, takes 2 mins. Total time consumed is now 13+2=15 mins. A french kisses B, crosses the bridge taking 2 mins. Voila, (15+2)=17 mins and they have crossed the way. Few days later the old man dies and then all the other 3 visit his funeral. Then A&B gets married, C raises a toast . A&B goes to the same old fucked up bridge spot for honeymoon, watching the zombies on the other side, sipping coffee. End of story. You can now do whatever you want.
me + professor on my shoulders = 1min come back = 2min me + janitor on my shoulders = 3min come back = 4min me + lab assistent = 5min I ain't gonna be a part of your system
+Mihael Namestnik Brbre The 1min is you at top speed. which you cant do while carrying someone. Carrying dead weight, you would move as slowly as an old man walking. making the first trip at least 10mins and also cause you to tire yourself out. the walk back and the next trip with the janitor would also cause you to take 10mins or even more because now your tired!
+Bekah Mcmullin The professor is old, has no muscle mass and his bones are hollow. He weighs nothing. 2 minutes tops. 1 minute back. The janitor has a big beard that will cause some wind resistance so 4 minutes carrying him. 1 minute back. Then telling the lab assistant there's a shoe sale on the other side, making her run faster, 1.5 minutes. Total: 9.5 minutes.
+Mihael Namestnik Brbre The combined weight of the Ganitor on your shoulders and "me" being you, on a small area surface of just two feet would create the equivelant of 3 people if not more. The bridge would snap.
+Mihael Namestnik Brbre I guess you missed the no tricks part of the question. While you were playing human donkey, I flew everyone to Spain for Sangria in my helicopter.
Lmao omg your comment wins today xD im reading all these different ways of doing it and then i read your comment I just take the lantern and make a run for it and just died laughing lol
Well you don't have to cut the bridge.. it'll collapse from the zombies.
omg yas
glad I wasn't the only one thinking about that.
Heisenberg You seem to be misunderstanding him. Once everyone is over, there is no point in cutting the rope. The bridge would collapse anyways
+Jeremy Vidaurri They could pass one by one, it doesn't say Zombies can't think ahah
That matters because if they can, which isn't said, they really have to cut the bridge.
And as you hand the lantern to the janitor and he and the professor vanish through the darkness crossing the bridge you hear the professor's voice shouting from a distant spot: "Did I say seventeen? sorry, I meant seven"

You said only 2 people could cross the bridge so if a horde of zombies take it then wont they all collapse making cutting the bridge completely irrelevent?
well what if the zombies smart enough so they cross the bridge 2 by 2
u know maybe the zombies are professor zombies because they came from lab, thats mean they are pretty smart
Fluffy Marimo how wud u know that all of them wud go at the same time?!? This is just an extra precaution that NO ONE GETS KILLED!!!! And ends up like the zombies
Nerrick 9
You do have a point! they maybe are intelligent!
Rj Pena its a theory and i can debunk it if the zombies were so smart they would not fall into the bridge when collapsed and that one zombie will not stand on the bridge because he knows that f he does he gonna fall of hmmmm?
the bridge can hold 2 PERSONS at a time, the weight of the zombies are not specified, and they specified though there are differences of weight among the persons too, any combination of persons can cross the bridge without breaking it, moreover that u just can not wait for the zombies to kill you. Sorry but your theory dosen't make any sense at all.

you can fall off
Maybe there are rotten planks on the bridge so you need to watch your way.
@@TheSleepyG_C maybe if they slightly touched the rope after running like little bit then they could have the track of which way they are going.
I was thinking that if you sent the professor and the janitor first with the lantern it would be ten minutes and then you and the other girl could run across without the lantern and it would be 12 in total
Fun Fact, if you send the assistant back in step 2 the results are the same:
you and assitant go = 2
assistant return = + 2 (4)
professor and janitor go = + 10 (14)
you return = +1 (15)
you and assistant go again = + 2 (17)
kageyame yeah that’s how I solved it
gings milk if you and the assistant go I believe it’s two minutes
@@kouckz3856 No, you always use the slowest person speed when 2 people are crossing, and the assistant speed is 2.
gings milk if you watch the answer in the video that’s not how it works. Also in real life it wouldn’t work that way either.
@@kouckz3856
sory, but in this case you're wrong, the video at 2:07 is the same situation, you and the lab assisstant go, but you only count the slower time that is the lab assistant, you don't add the two times, otherwise no solution would the workable.
I'm sure a lot of people must have already commented so but the solution in the video is not the only one. It also works if the Lab Assistant (instead of the Internship student) comes back with the lantern (I'm referring to this part of the solution: 2:37 )
Wait you're right!
wait what? that works?
@@goodstuff-hr9jn yeah the two methods are more or less equivalent, both you and the lab assistent need to carry the lantern back across the bridge once, so switching the two doesn't change the final result.
The general solution is: you+lab go across -> either you or lab go back -> janitor+prof go across -> the other of you or lab go back -> you and lab go across. Both cases involve 1 trip at your speed, one trip at professor speed and 3 trips at lab assistent speed.
No it doesn’t, your one minute short, you have to all be on the other side when it reaches 17 minutes
@@todayisthedayofsalvation It does work. You and the lab assistant cross, and 2 minutes have elapsed. Then she goes back with the lantern, and 4 minutes have elapsed. The professor and the janitor cross, and 14 minutes have elapsed. You take the lantern and go back, and 15 minutes have elapsed. Finally, you and the assistant cross the bridge one final time, and the 17 minutes are up when you get to the other side.
but why would I need to cut the rope when the bridge can only hold 2 people at a time anyway

+tahi laci Then 3 other people cheer as you found the perfect solution...
+tahi laci Yeah this actually took me 8 minutes to work out, so as the plan starts to execute, the zombies catch up to the professor and janitor and only the lab assistant lives. LOL!
+tahi laci Well considering how fast the professor figured out how long it would take for the zombies to get there i think that he could figure out the best way to go across in 1 minute, which is all that is needed.
+tahi laci if you have done the fox and chicken and grain puzzel then you can do this one in like 20s
+tahi laci Hopefully you figure it out on your way to the bridge. Otherwise, here's the alternative plan:
1. Figure out the plan and realize you've spent too much time thinking for it to now work. Come up with the alternative plan. (6 minutes)
2. Run across with the lab assistant. (8 minutes)
3. Return with the lantern. (9 minutes)
4. Cross with the janitor. (14 minutes)
5. Return with the lantern. (15 minutes)
6. Tell the professor you hope he now realizes how unwise it was of him to be messing with the undead. Then tell him you're shocked he didn't have some kind of escape planned out in advance. He could have even had an up to date plan posted at all exits and conducted regular zombie drills; but it's all too late now. (16 minutes)
7. Run across the bridge. Even if he tries to follow you in the dark you're safe because there's still only two people on the bridge. (17 minutes)
8. Cut the ropes.

Maya Rivera 😂😂
*A SAFER SOLUTION?*
After that first trip across (2mins) _You_ stay there & let the Lab Assistant go back with lantern (4mins) & next the Janitor & the Professor come across with the lantern (14mins) & _then_ You go back for the Lab Assistant with the lantern (15mins) & finally You & the Lab Assistant cross one last time (17mins).
This way may be better than the way suggested in the video because the odds that the Old Professor & Janitor will be more responsible & trustworthy enough to _Not_ pre-maturely cut the bridge until you come back is better because they'll already be safe on the other side of the bridge & from my personal experience, as a general rule,
*_I don't trust LAB ASSISTANTS or MILLENIALS!_*
Lol! Peace.
Maya Rivera exactly. Once the Professor & Janitor are on the safe side of the bridge & seeing that they're slower, there is no reason for them to stick around. They should just keep moving away from the bridge.
Just carry the janitor and grandpa across one at a time while you carry them just make them hold the lantern, after you carry them both across just pop back for the lab assistant. Even if it takes you 3 min including rest stops, it should only take you 8 min total for them both then 1 min for running back for the assistant and 2 min for both of you to get to safety. So you can do this in about 11 min.
you cant carry them, the bridge supports two people max.
@@venus_stxr ?????
You can't do that since the bridge can only hold 2 people max since it's an old and weak bridge *1:09* but i see your point just carrying the professor and janitor so you can run faster and eventually reach the bridge in just 4 minutes
@@venus_stxr he said one at a time but id still consider this a trick
Carrying someone will slow them down, perhaps even more so than if they had just walked, you can't quantify time saved, but it's not the same because you're neglecting the extra weight

There's no need to cut the ropes once you've made it to the other side because:
1. The zombies don't have a flashlight.
2. They don't know the bridge can only support two at a time.
+Manoj Niraula point 1, the zombies have nightvision as the prof stated
point 2 exactly you're right! but their body mass must be lighter than live human though
+akhmad fadli Why exactly?
+akhmad fadli Ok, so let's assume 2 zombies weigh less than 2 humans. There's many more than 2 zombies, though, and the difference in mass can't be enough for 3 zombies to weigh less than 2 humans, unless you've got zombies that are missing large portions of their bodies. Also, if there's only 2 or 3 zombies, 4 people (even if one is an old professor) could almost definitely handle them. Better question is why the professor didn't invent a way of controlling or killing the zombies. I mean one hand grenade tossed properly would easily wipe out the few zombies shown...
+tubefan90000 I meant why would zombies have a minor body mass.
***** And? What does that have to do with me?
I think his reasoning, though, is that they're rotting corpses, thus missing skin, maybe parts of limbs, etc, which wouldn't be more of a difference than the weight difference there'd likely be between the lab assistant and the janitor
Mr Gendler, thanks for your another great video. I really got in love with math riddles. Thank you!
Yeah, the obvious answer is to not use the goddamn lamp. It's a fucking bridge with two rope rails on both sides, so you can't get lost, you can't fall... it's a pretty obvious thing to do.
but you wouldn't know if the others have made it safely across, and If you go on the bridge while they're still on will cause the bridge to collapse
filipinofortunecookie Yes because it would be impossible for them to just yell that they are safely across... sarcasm. Besides, bridges like the one shown in the video, always wobble from side to side as someone is walking on it, so when the wobbling stops, they have crossed the bridge. Or just give the lantern to the ones who pass the bridge first, thus being able to see when they have crossed it.
But what if there are incomplete parts on the bridge. If you can't see them you won't know to cross over and end up falling through.
BadApple The narrator never said anything about there being incomplete parts on the bridge, so we can conclude that the bridge is completely intact, thus my solution is still correct.
+aDotFromTheFuture the narrator also says you need a lamp , the solution requires you to make allowance for the lamp. " any one crossing must either hold a the lantern or stay close to someone who does" so your solution can't not include it.
Couldn't you just give a piggy back to the little old fellas?
no bcs the bridge can only hold two ppl
There would be only 2 people it would just be faster
+Random Girl true
How? Say you dash across with the professor on your back. 2 people. Duh!
+Jazmin Barajas i think he ment, the fast guy carry the old man, come back with the lantern, carry the janitor and go back for the girl. It's quicker that way.
If the old professor walks across with his hands on the ropes the whole way, can't he go without the lamp?
+Alexander Freyr that's a good question.
+Alexander Freyr That's absolutely true, in reality no one need the lamp, the can all just hold the rope. problem solved, A+.
+Alexander Freyr I guess the lamp is important to avoid the broken planks
Ale Ro Nothing is ever said about there being broken planks though. Merely that the bridge is old and can therefore only support two at a time.
Furthermore, it is said that the lantern is just because it is too dark out to see without it, thus nothing is stopping anyone from simply approaching the bridge lit and then walking across blind.
Nothing but the stated "There are no tricks, you can't swing across etc." or in other words
_"Stop finding clever ways to solve my riddles,_ do it my way or leave"
+Alexander Freyr Or there are simply no ropes.
Imagine having to wait in the dark on the wrong side and not knowing if the others have abandoned you and already left. If I was the professor or janitor I’d be scared shitless.

CUZ THERE ARE HOLES
IN DA BRIDGE
That wasn't part of the riddle. Besides, the bridge has ropes.
It said they had to get across an *old* rope bridge. It's probably worn down with lots of holes in the planks. Plus it's night and they could barely see without the lantern.
Let's assume the actors are blind for a moment. They can rub their foot on the step ahead to make sure there is a step to stand on.
if its an oil lamp, they make small explosions when thrown XD either boost the old bastard using it or just throw it at a zombie
Make the fastest person piggyback the professor and save 10 minutes!
I say fuck the janitor. Piggy back the professor and let the lab assistant cross once I get across with the professor. Boom simple as that.
In my experience Janitors are a lot more trust worthy then scientists. I'd send the janitor accross with the lantern, because he won't cut the rope and doom everyone else.
Then have him signal with the lantern, kill the professor by pushing him off the cliff and escaping with the lab assistant.
If the scientist doubts his own math, or lied about the math, I wouldn't leave him or the lab assistant alone at the other side of the bridge.
Also you shouldn't go over first, because you'd also cut the rope.

Yes that lab assistant is totally going to come back towards the zombies to save me with perhaps 0 minutes to spare, and her being the slowest of us two, and with me being the one who released the zombies.

Well in that case, get the lab assistant to take the lantern back to the janitor and the professor. Then, she'll have to wait there for you to bring it back so she can escape!
Personally though, I'd just take the lab assistant with me and leave the professor and the janitor behind. They'll only slow us down...and it gives me a chance to get closer with the cute lab assistant. xD
