You are locked in a jail that has two identical gates.
One gate leads to freedom and the other gate leads to death. Each gate has got a guard. One guard always says the truth and the other guard always say lies. You are not sure which guard says the truth and which one lies. You are permitted to ask only one question that can make you escape from the jail. What should the question be ?
