Who can solve this puzzle?

Has to be drawn in one continuous line without retracing any lines.  You can cross lines.

we used to play this for years as kids ... mathematically the solution has been determined to not exist.
The tricks with folding of the paper etc etc are the only options to get it done.
Cool.

[makenzie71]

can you explain any of the paper folding tricks?

[The Buddha]

Start drawing ... you'd me left with everything but 1 of the lobe things, but you will be on the opposite corner. At that point fold the paper and draw on that to your new location, then complete the lobe.
Cool.

yeah I thought for a second and got it figured out.  That's slick but everyone says "nah that's cheating" haha

It has a Cross in it , how are u gonna do that with out crossing unless u fold the paper?

[makenzie71]

most people can't solve it because they make up rules...this is the first time I've seen someone dispute the rules in place prior to making up new ones.

My cousin actually used that diagram and SS's 'solution' to describe quantum physics at the last family reunion.  It was a mind-numbing experience, but we all humored him because he's the first in the family to get a doctorate that didn't involve selling his soul.

Yes its also used to think in different planes.
Cool.
