You cannot break a concrete floor with an egg. :P

anonymous · Answer

without breaking the egg

anonymous · Answer

I know the answer. Anyone else want to guess?

akashdeepdeb · Answer

Raise it higher than it is. It will not break in the 4 feet it falls.

anonymous · Answer

Hold the egg up and drop the egg from 5 feet. The egg can then drop 4 feet through the air without breaking. It won't break untill it hits the ground.

anonymous · Answer

Good job. :)

akashdeepdeb · Answer

Haha! Yeah!

If you have long arms, just drop from one hand to the other.
There was no mentioning of dropping the egg to the floor.

Then use the other method or a friend.

What if you don't have a friend? O.O

mathstudent55 · Answer

Then you should go out more and find one.

You can always drop the egg from 5 ft.
