  And they have a fun interactive game you can play to defuse the bomb too! https://www.damninteresting.com/interactive/zab/ https://www.damninteresting.com/interactive/zab/

    I'm confused by this game - did the original panel have lights? I was hoping this was a logical model of the original bomb, but switching #5 seems to set it off. The article says that #5 was known to be dummy.

      the game is similar to "simon says" and has nothing to do with defusing the dummy
