How can a man go eight days without sleep?

John and Jacob are planning on a vacation. John says, "It will be better if we take the train to the hotel. We will reach faster."
To this, Jacob says, "No. You are wrong. The train stops halfway to the hotel and then we will have to walk the rest of the way. We should take the bikes to the hotel directly."
John says, "You are wrong."

Now, John takes the train while Jacob takes the bike. The train travels at four times the speed of the bike. The bike travels at twice the speed of walking.

Who do you think will reach the hotel first?

What does this say?

The great emperor Akbar once ruled India. He was well known for his intelligence. But along with that, he was known for the Nine Gems in his court. One of the nine gems was Birbal, a quick witted and extremely intelligent man. The stories of his wit were widely popular.

Once a king ruling in a distant land heard of Birbal. To check his wit, he sent an invitation and called him to visit his land. Akbar allowed Birbal to go and he took off on the journey.

Upon reaching that kings kingdom, he was welcomed with flowers. He was then escorted to the palace of the king. Upon entering the palace, Birbal found that there were six people sitting in front of him adorning the same robe. They were also lookalike and it was hard to judge who the real king was.

After a couple of minutes, Birbal approached one of them and bowed in front of him greeting him.

That was the real king. How did Birbal know who was the real king ?
