What is the answer to 'It has a head and a foot but no body'?
The answer is a pin. A pin has a rounded head at the top and a pointed foot at the bottom, but no body in between.
Why is the answer a pin?
It's a tricky object riddle: everyday things can borrow body-part names. A pin's blunt rounded top is its 'head' and its sharp tip is its 'foot', yet there's nothing in between to call a body.

It is rated hard because it relies on figurative language rather than literal clues, so it stumps most people on the first try.
