Big (Hard) Riddle:

A man is stranded on a desert island.
He has nothing with him other then his clothes.
He finds a road.
He follows the road until he sees a sign.
The sign tells him of two native tribes on the island.
One of the tribes always tells the truth, the other always lies.
He continues down the road until it splits.
One way leads to food, shelter, and everything good.
The other way leads to pain, torture, starvation, and everything bad.
He doesn't know which way is which.
There are two natives standing there, one from each tribe.
He doesn't know which tribe is which.
If he only had one question that he could ask one of the natives to figure out which way to go, what would that question be?



DON'T SCROLL DOWN  FARTHER!
Answer is down there.







Ask one native what the other native's answer would be if he were asked which way is the good way, then go the other direction.

Do to several emails, I felt I needed to add this:
To those of you who think another answer is to ask either native which path he lives down, for all you know the truth native lives in the 'bad' place and the liar native lives in the 'good' place. So I'm sorry that answer is not correct, you would still have the 50/50 chance of taking the wrong path.
