You'd love to remain alive? Tell me where would you stand!
There are 2000 soldiers standing in a circle, in a huge field. The first soldier is given a sword. He kills the person in front of him and hands over the sword to the next one. The next one does the same i.e., kills the one in front of him and then hands over the sword to the next one. This goes on until one single person is alive. Suppose you were one of those 2000 soldiers. Where would you stand, so that at the end of the event, you are alive?
The answer is 1953.
