What is the answer to the "faster than light, no body, no weight" riddle?
The answer is a thought. A thought has no physical body or weight, never gets tired, and can travel to the farthest corner of the universe the instant you imagine it — effectively faster than light.
Why is a thought considered faster than light?
Light is the fastest physical thing, but a thought is not physical at all. You can picture a distant galaxy instantly, so in this riddle a thought outruns light because it moves through your imagination, not through space.
Is this an easy or hard riddle?
It is a medium-difficulty logic riddle. The clues (no body, no weight, never tires, reaches anywhere instantly) point away from physical things like sound or wind and toward something abstract.
