There're two people in front of you: your friend and an imposter looking exactly like your friend.
There's no way to determine who is who by asking questions, they know the same information about you.
You have only one bullet in your gun.
If you kill or injure the imposter, you and your friend will be saved, If you're wrong, he'll kill you immediately.

A boy was at a carnival and went to a booth where a man said to the boy, “if I write your exact weight on this piece of paper, you have to give me $50, but if I cannot, I will pay you $50.” The boy looked around and saw no scale, so he agreed, thinking that no matter what was written, he could say more or less. In the end, the boy ended up paying the man $50.
How did the man win the bet?
