It's a lateral thinking puzzle, meaning you can assume all sorts of stuff as long as it doesn't contradict what's been stated.

(I really don't like lateral thinking puzzles. It's not about finding the solution; there are tons, and it's just about finding the specific one the person asking the riddle is thinking of >_>)

Here's another easy lateral thinking puzzle:

A thousand feet up in the air, I lie with my back on the ground. What am I?

Now that is a riddle, not a lateral thinking puzzle :3

...Is it a cloud? That's the only thing I can really think of that could have its back to the ground.

Except maybe a helicopter flying upside-down... ('cause they can do that. I think...)

Here's another easy lateral thinking puzzle:

A thousand feet up in the air, I lie with my back on the ground. What am I?

...a centipede what lies on its back?

Close, but wrong. Try to read the puzzle once more.

Hmmm...I think we need a PW related riddle.

Maya had just finished eating hamburgers at the hamburger joint. Phoenix was worried. He asked her:
"Um...Maya...how many burgers have you had just now!?"
"The amount of letters in your name, Nick. Minus the number of letters in mine, then multiplied by the number of letters in pearlys name." She said, finsihing off yet another burger. How many burgers has Maya eaten?
(we're counting last names)


Also, find the animal in a sentence:
(E.G: Like this: 'I got a maC AT pc world today.')
'He's a fine old cha p and a genourous man too.'

Well done, both correct.

Yay!!
Anyway some What am I? Riddles

I run over fields and woods all day. Under the bed at night I sit not alone. My tongue hangs out, up and to the rear, awaiting to be filled in the morning. What am I?

Throw it off the highest building, and I'll not break. But put me in the ocean, and I will. What am I?

No sooner spoken than broken. What is it?

You use a knife to slice my head and weep beside me when I am dead. What am I?

1st one is a shoe.
3rd one is Silence
4th one....an onion?

No. 2 from the last one~A balloon?

Romeo and Juliet are fishes and bowl was broken?

You spoiled all the fun for the other people now! D:

EDIT: Here's a new one for you, kids:

"The lights went out. The music went out. He fell. It was murder."

I'm the part of the bird that's not in the sky. I can swim in the ocean and yet remain dry. What am I?

A bird's reflection.

We just had that riddle tho >_>

...These remind me very much of lateral thinking puzzles. (Argh T_T)

1.Was it a recording playing?
2.Was it the man playing?
3.Was it someone else playing?

When is a door not a door?

4) Ni....Coal?

1: A balloon?

3: Just one person you.

Number one is apparently a bubble, because it's round, it's actually lighter than a feather but it will break if a person touches it.
