If you're are like me you have a love hate relationship with riddles. Sometimes they can be so tough that they can give you an actual headache just trying to wrap your brain around them. If you listen to our show than you know how much I love to ask my co-host LBF riddles on Fridays. We call them 'Friddles" get it? Get it Friday Riddles!
It never fails to frustrate her when I ask her one. She thinks I do it just to be annoying, but that is not true, I do it to prove to her that she can solve them.
Usually what happens is the audience can answer them before she can figure them out.
I'm always amazed at the speed in which the callers figure out even the most convoluted and confusing riddles.
I have searched the internet to find riddles that are tough and still the phone rings with someone knowing the answer. I always ask if they have heard of the riddle before and already knew the answer. Some folks admit to having heard it before, but most often people say they just figured it out.
I will take their word for it because for some folks riddles are easy if you listen closely and use logic, so in that spirit I present to you 7 riddles that might be too tough to tame.
Take a minute to look them over and see how you do. I have provided the answers to all of them at the very bottom of the page, so be sure not to peak till the very end. If you're good at solving riddles you should be happy if you can get 3 or 4, if you get 5,6 or an amazing 7, then consider yourself a Master Riddler! Good luck!
