1. A woman gave natural birth to two sons who were born on the same hour of the same day of the same month of the same year. But they were not twins and she had no access to a time machine. How could this be?

There is a problem with how this question was formulated. It should say, "a woman gives natural birth to two sons who were born WITHIN the same hour, not on. "On the hour" means at the top of the hour, which is misleading since two babies cannot be born simultaneously.
