Dan Chamizer, has come to be regarded as something of a national
treasure in Israel over the last three decades.
Israel’s most famous riddler, Dan (60) is often described
as a Renaissance man. He is a pilot, sculptor, poet, visual artist,
inventor and, of course, a treasure hunt and riddle guru whose radio
and TV conundrums have fascinated millions, making him a household
name. Indeed, the unique "Chamizer Riddle" engages and
delights over a third of the population every year.
Developed in the eighties and based on an original coding system,
Dan’s innovative "Chamizer Riddle" tool has provided
the infrastructure for a diverse range of formats in the fields
of education, communication and media (television, radio, Internet,
print, telephony etc.) and is also used widely in numerous professional
motivational programs, stimulating employees in organizations and
workplaces throughout Israel.
