each cup. The first man drinks his slowly and stays awhile the second

The ice in the drinks was poisoned. Since the second man drank quickly the ice didn't have time to melt and

he wasn't affected. The first man's ice had time to melt, so by the

time he finished his drink he was poisoned.

The poison was in the ice cubes. The man wh drank fast didn't allow the ice to melt into his drink and therefore missed the poison.

They both took same cups with poison in each of it...same quantity, same type. Second one was not taken to hospital, neither had any medical help.

I will reply this riddle, when i get 03 msgs that say they cant solve it. You can ask for help from your friends or other QLers.

Mila... when I wrote "there is poison in each cup"...that means... both are drinking in cups...

I hope it explains?
