While it is impossible for the rooster to lay an egg, it was put in the data set as a fact of this hypothetical situation. Since the question is based on "if this were to happen" as opposed to "if this is a thing that can happen," saying that the rooster can't lay an egg isn't solving the question.

I’d better describe this as tricky questions. That’s my critical opinion.

While brain teasers can be a fun and engaging way to promote critical thinking, it's important to note that critical thinking is a broader skill that can be developed through various activities, including analyzing literature, engaging in debates, and solving real-world problems. Brain teasers can be a valuable component of a more comprehensive approach to building critical thinking skills.

I knew the answer just because of that episode of the Simpsons where Bart is asked the same question about the rooster tbh.

for the second riddle, how do you light the match without a match box?

For the second riddle My answer was turning on the light

Thank you for the reminder to have a daily 'think'' for my students.

An egg laying rooster would be a sensation.

the fact that I didn't get the answers right throughout the video says something

I'm absolutely enthralled by this material. A book I engaged with on this subject matter profoundly changed my views. "Unlocking the Brain's Full Potential" by Alexander Sterling

You saig "A Rooster lays an egg" I allowed that for the hypothetical, as that is what I thought the query wanted. I thought you were using poetic license to make your point about the egg.

How do you light the match stick without a striker? That's terrible difficult and inconvenient. Best answer is to just turn on the stove

Hey, he said he only have a match without saying a matches box (thing we used to rub the match to the match box). How can he light the match? Doesn't he need to turn on the stove first and get the fire for the stove to the match and pass it to the candle and oil lamp?

What if I made a cartoon with a three ghosts flying around and ask, “how many ghosts do you see? If you answered 3 you’re wrong because ghosts don’t exist you idiot!” And animate the ghosts disappearing. This is clearly what you just did with the egg. My critical thinking skills are off the charts!

Maybe the rooster is physiologically a hen, but it identifies as a male.

I knew the answer to the match/candle/lamp/stove riddle thanks to professor Layton puzzles.

And I was like...well in a dark room I’d find my way to the stove and turn it on to light my match but okay

I am more of a visual thinker, I saw the egg pop out of the rooster so I believed it laid an egg! lol

Also, thank you for the video

Nursing school style questions!!!

I was asked which direction the egg would roll, not whether the rooster was or wasn’t an egg-ception to the egg laying rule.

Um so this is not a brain teaser if you just ask a trick question.

How applicable this is for today’s society…

how can you lit a match if you don't have a matchbox?

In the second teaser I got a question how do you light a match in a dark room if you can't see?

sometime, i should should try to change the way I thinking specially to out put a amazing result.

The first answer is not possible as how.rooster can lay egs but second is the match

There are some gas stoves that doesn’t need for a match and matchbox though 😂😂

Isn't the gas stove is the answer assuming there is a gas tank? Well you don't have to light a match though if you're a pyrokinesis😁

I got the match one correct, atleast.

Hey the match couldn't light by it self y'know..

What about those who don't know meaning of rooster

What if the rooster identifies as a hen?

Ohh the match

misdirection is unnatural... except maybe fake news

This might be critical thinking but it doesn’t make any sense at all.

omigosh i really need help, i got both the first and second one wrong

I found the questions kinda stupid and not really helping in improving critical thinking. There was a logical fallacy in the answer to the second question because the second brain teaser question, “Which do you light first?” implies which one of the things mentioned would you light first. The answer would be correct if the question were “What do you light first?”

Puzzle maker says a rooster lays an egg, I work with that. Unsatisfying.

i was about to comment roosters dont lay eggs but the other commenters beat me lol

It got me twice😅😅

I got it right without a problem 💀

The narrator got me angry twice

waddup 7A IF YOU HERE

I'm not so sure these are "brain teasers", they seem more like trick questions. These would actually discourage a kid from wanting to do more. A better scenario would be solving crimes.

They do lag small eggs

East

I'm dumb🙈🙉🙊

What if the rooster identifies as a female. Come on it’s 2023😂

Unless its an intersex rooster.

😄😄i was faild 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

People who have heard both of these before. 👇

Bite me.

Information is not Understanding.

The rooster identify as she/her

Wrong. This is a video about critical thinking, not biological essentialism in natural kinds theory. The rooster egg rolls West.

what if rooster was transgender :)

These days, this riddle is vastly more difficult as most of the Western world thinks "rosters" can "lay eggs"...
