Here is a simple paper puzzle that'll keep you busy for a few minutes. There is no trickery, no glue, no tape.

Supplies needed:
One square piece of paper
Scissors

It makes you think outside the box. I was given this puzzle in a room with 15 other people and was the first to solve it. Perhaps building things helped me visualize it, lets see how you do.

I do the same thing with paperclips, looks wierd but pretty simple.

Awesome, I suspected certain types of people would have an easier time completing this. They let everyone else in my group have about 30 min and no one solved it without picking it up and messing with it. (we weren't allowed to)

+1 for the creator types like us!

I checked this out at work today and figured it out within maybe 15 seconds and had it made within a minute, just to make sure. Cool little "puzzle".
