Can you guess the riddle?
(97% of Harvard Graduates could not figure this riddle out, but 84% of kindergarten students were able to figure this riddle out in 6 minutes or less. Can you guess the correct answer?)
The answer is not "Pressure"

wait i got it!
The answer isnt pressure. Kindergarteners wouldn't think of that as an answer. Notice at the end of the riddle how there's a question, "Can you answer this?". The answer to the riddle is simply "No." The reason kindergarteners beat Harvard grads is because kindergarteners are honest enough to say "No I can't answer this." The Harvard grads tried to think of some scientific explanation, but they didn't really look into the question good enough. The real answer is probably "No." Yes, there are explanations like pressure, but the maker of the riddle might not have thought about that. The reason it's called the world's hardest riddle is because people try to think of an answer more complex than the word "No." There you go! That's the best explanation I can get.

The answer is 'No'.
Because the question is not,
"What turns polar bears white, and makes you cry...
makes guys have to pee, and girls comb their hair...
makes celebrities look stupid, and normal people look like celebrities...
turns pancakes brown, and makes your champagne bubble...
when you squeeze me I'll pop, if you look at me you'll pop...?"
The question is "Can you guess the riddle?"
And there is no answer to that riddle, so no, I cannot guess the riddle.

The only question you ask is "can you guess the riddle", so the answer is NO (cuz there is no answer). But, technically I can GUESS, just not correctly, so it could be YES depending on your perspective.

nothing- everything mentioned is naturally that way. nothing MAKES it that way, it just is.
polar bears are white
nothing, like for christmas or birthday will make you cry
guy pee girls comb hair-naturally
celebrities make themselves look stupid
normal people and celebrities look alike. we're all human afterall
pancakes turn brown
champagne isnt champagne unless its bubbly
things pop when squeezed and nothing...... nothing....... will make you pop just by looking at it
