An old poser but still interesting for it's answers.

Imagine you are in a room with 2 doors, one leads to freedom, the other to instant death, you don't know which.
In the room are two men one must tell the truth the other must lie, again you don't know which.

You are allowed one question only, what question do you ask to ensure freedom?
