The internet is back with another mindbender. This time it's 'brewing' over a simple diagram of coffee being poured into a set of pipes leading to four cups. The memo is easy - which cup will get coffee first. But a "latte" people haven't been able to figure out the answer.
Hint: Look at the finer details.

Wouldn't they all get it at the same time

Isn't it 9, 4, 7, 5? (9 first because the distance between the tubes are much shorter than 4.)

Wait no, 9 is blocked off. Okay, 4, 7 then 5 and 9... well, 9 just doesn't count.

Depends how fast you pour and how much coffee there is it's a long way to 5

I think the "speed" of the coffee being poured plays a role here. A "slow" pour would result in 5 getting the coffee first (as you pointed out) but a "fast" pour would result in an overflow spill from the top which would leak coffee into 4 & 7 before 5. Speed is relative.
