New brain teaser on social media Leaves Users Scratching Their Heads
A new brain teaser shared on social media is challenging people to think outside the box, and it’s causing quite a buzz. Posted by a user on Threads, the puzzle asks participants to figure out what’s touching the ground in a room filled with animals and flying chickens.
In the scenario, you walk into a room where several animals are lying on a bed, and chickens are flying above a chair. While it may seem chaotic, the real challenge is identifying what’s actually on the ground.
Since it was shared by @mrs_stephanief_2000, the puzzle has sparked over 70 comments. One user speculated, “The chair and the bed are the only things touching the ground. Four legs for the chair?” Another noted, “We can ignore that chickens don’t fly if we’re willing to accept all the animals fitting on a bed.”

The animals lying on the bed don’t contribute any legs to the floor because the bed is elevated. The flying chickens also have no contact with the ground. So, what does? The answer lies with you and the furniture. Your legs are touching the ground, along with the chair in the room, which likely has legs resting on the floor.
The teaser is designed to focus attention on what is elevated versus what’s grounded, often tricking people into overthinking. Many users have shared their answers, often overlooking simple details like their own legs or the chair’s.
The simple yet tricky puzzle continues to leave many stumped, reminding everyone to focus on the basics!
