Because if you were to ask the guard that tells the truth he would know that the other one would lie so he would say the door to death,
and if you asked the guard that lies he would know that the other guard would say the right door so he would lie about it and say the door that leads to death so you walk out the oppisite door

??? There are four different variables here: 1) a door that leads to freedom, 2) a door that leads to death, 3) a guard who tells the truth, and 4) a guard who lies.

How do you know which door each guard is guarding? There are four different possibilities, but you can only ask one question to determine which door is the correct one. I still don't see how it works out with one question.
