PUZZLES

Is this chess position possible?

by Maxwell Lin

Puzzle 2: You’re exploring the forest with your brother. Suddenly, another man grabs both of you, and says this: I will release one of you. If you say a true statement, I will free you. If you say a false statement, I will free your brother. If you try to say anything that isn’t true or false, like “This statement is false,” I won’t free either of you. What can you say to free both you and your brother?

(Hint- It has something to do with the situation, it isn’t a random statement.)
