Because wooden legs can't take pictures--you could, however, use a camera ;)

TheLegendLeads

:o You are as sharp as a tack, no doubt. I'll try finding some real hard brainteasers next time.

Alliecat

Anatomy this time.

Human organs definition can be comprehended from this sentence:
The human body consists of biological systems, that consist of organs, that consist of tissues, that consist of cells and connective tissue.

Now the brainteaser:

Question: Which human organ is the largest in size?

I'll like to shoot anyone saying thighs :/

This is a classic one, very old but always works,

If you were running a race and you passed the person in 2nd place, what place would you be in now?

Alliecat

2nd place and the person you passed would be in 3rd :)  (as you said, it's an old one lol)

:lol:

Want me to delete my answe?! :D

saimans

If you are running a race and passed the person in second place what place would you be in?

The Answer is 2nd Place

The person you passed is now in third place.
The person in first place is just in front of you (Because it does not say that you have passed the person in first place)

*The answer Can be First Place (as it still fits the need of "passed the person in second place) but it's assumed that you have ONLY passed the person in second place (since the first placer isn't mentioned), and thus, with the reasoning above, puts you into second place.

saimans

Case: A man hijacks an aeroplane transporting both passengers (8 of them) and some valuable cargo. After taking the cargo, the man demands nine parachutes, puts one of them on, and jumps, leaving the other eight behind. Why did he want eight?

Probably he wanted to fool police that he wanted to throw the passengers out, but escaped himself.

He wanted to create a scene that all the hostages would be descending with him and asked for 9 Parchutes, In that case he made it sure that he wont be given the damaged parachute.

Management !!

Zeesham

In case if he asked for one, they may give faulty one. :p
