I he says something false: they will kill him by frying him in oil.
What does he say?
Answer: He says:
"You will fry me in oil,"
This is becuase, if he syas that, and they fry him on oil, the statement becomes true, and they msut boil him in water.
But, if they boil him in water, the statement becomes false, so they must fry him in oil.
This makes a continious loop.
