    WES THEME SONG: open.spotify.com/album/7qpQ0k... (By Eric Vanier)
    Wes Barker is a Canadian magician and comedian doing funny tricks, and telling great stories. You may know me from my TV show Big Trick Energy (truTV, Hulu, Netflix). Watch here for hilarious, ridiculous, and unfiltered ideas with magic, stunts, and pranks. Either I'm the funniest magician who is also a stand-up comic, or maybe I'm the comic who is the best at magic? Either way you get the idea. I tour all over doing colleges, comedy clubs, and corporate events. Catch the adventures and tricks right here. With this magician / comedian from Vancouver, based out of Toronto, Canada. I make funny stuff. That’s my only rule. Everything has to be funny, from street magic to stage illusions, as long as there is a joke to be made. I do magic tricks, sketches, stand-up comedy, card tricks, mind reading, and tricks with naked people. I’ve been on America’s Got Talent, Penn & Teller: Fool Us, MTV Greatest Party Stories Ever, and Wizard Wars. You can find me pulling pranks on friends, gags on strangers, or just general sleight of hand, magic, illusions, and the occasional bar bet. Wes Barker also hosts a podcast with Chris Ramsay called Bottom Of The Barrel. Go check it out!

    POISONOUS snakes would be fine unless you ate them. I'd stay away from "VENOMOUS" snakes. I thought that would be the answer.

      Just because they're described as the most poisonous does not preclude them from also being venomous, or otherwise dangerous. You're taking your chances with any snakes, whereas dead lions aren't going to hurt you. Honestly, I'd even pick the bees over the snakes. The main difference between regular bees and Africanized bees is how far they will chase you after you make them mad. Regular bees give up after you get several steps, the others chase you down the whole block. Just don't make the bees mad in the first place and you might be ok.

      That's what I immediately thought, so I didn't even listen to the third option 😂

      @@trevorlambert4226 For a puzzle, pedantry about poison vs. venom is a very reasonable answer. In real life the person pulling this nonsense on you might have meant venomous. I agree that the bees are a good bet if you can stay calm as they blanket you (and not suffocate if the room is literally full). For the lions, it really depends on how the lions were preserved. Are they frozen, rotting, fully decomposed, mummified? The room could be extremely toxic. It also depends on how big and how "full" the room was. If they literally packed a tall room full of lions and let them die then slowly rot over a year the room could be an 8' deep pool of putrefied fluids on top of a bed of bones and teeth.

    For number 7 my mind went to a more basic form of the answer: "I'm lying". It creates a similar paradox.

    A HUGE THANKS to your wife for showing the toe stretchers in a past video. I had terrible foot pain. At the end of a work day I could barely walk. But learning that "toe stretcher" is a thing, I paused your video to buy a pair for men right away. I don't have any more pain and I can work all day. Or walk the dog! Thank you for showing such a silly thing -- and saving my feet.

    riddle 1) I think it's usually 1 lion, so there is no chance that there were enough lions so that they could survive through cannibalism.

    I wish you had these written out. So I can ask them easier. I told my best friend the first one and after some thinking, she got it right and for the right reason! I was impressed! And then we got into a convo about how smelly that room full of dead lions would be and how long it would take for all that smell to go away. I know, we are weird. lol Thanks for the fun riddles!

    1 ) too easy
    2 ) moderate ( there is a distinct grey area here in that developers solution is not , technically " water " . It's a "solution" , hence the name )
    3 ) fairly easy
    4 ) mmmm ... found it fairly easy . Depends where you start thinking of the answer , I guess
    5 ) probably very challenging if you don't read. Took the third mental thread I pulled to get it.
    6 ) I couldn't choose between " time " or some version of steps or rungs on a ladder or something .
    7 ) fail
    8 ) fairly easy
    9 ) I don't know how to score this one because my answer was " an apology" . I don't feel that answer is expressly wrong . If it is , then 7 of 9 with the two wrong answer being levels more difficult than the rest.

    still at number one but got stuck at the snakes or the lions question. if you don't eat the snakes (venom versus poison) you should be good, but the lions are dead not sure which is the correct one though.

    Here's one that's never been answered without searching google.
    Every dawn begins with me.
    At dusk I'll be the first you see.
    And daybreak could not come without,
    What midday centers all about.
    Daisies grow from me I'm told.
    And when I come I end all cold.
    Yet in the sun I won't be found.
    But still each day I'll be around.

    The last one sounds like "HELP!". "When I"m used I'm useless" because the help has been given and is no longer needed. "Once offered soon rejected" because it's no longer needed. "in desperation oft expressed" because you call out for it. "The intended not protected" because the person you ask for help doesn't need it.
