awwww, i was thinking that they were talking about their shadows.
SpiceSlag
B-Because the opening sentence said they were in a straight line? If you're gonna be a smart arse with your answer I'm gonna do the same!
Eudonidano
Oh. I thought the third ant saw his shadow behind him...
moerkov2
Or, third at is walking backwards.
MadStach
Ants are lying bastards.
GuruGloin
Third ant overtook second while they were talking?
ImnotdumbIjusthaveacommandofthoroughlyuselessinformation
I was gonna say his shadow...
KNIVESY
I thought "well, if you go far back enough, yeah, there's probably another ant behind it. Just. Many yards or miles away.
meatylegend
I wouldve said there is a shadow
iktome99
There was only one set of antprints because that was when jesus ant was carrying them.
Dogedogeydoge
Who upvotes bs like this TO FRONT PAGE!?!?!?!

I read this to my dad before I read the solution. Then I showed him the solution. His face was just utter disappointment.
billeneube
Maybe the sun was low in the sky and the last ant saw its shadow.
ZOMGNO
Yeah, that was my guess and I believe I was right
efemral
They're on a sphere (Earth) and so yeah, the front ant is also behind the back ant.
thanksalottodd
the world is a fucking sphere
FrozenTime
Holy crap I actually got it right! I didn't expect it to be the real answer when I scrolled down though so it was still a surprise haha
Plectro
My friend told this to a bunch of people she was on a trip with a let them try to guess it for 6 days before she told them the answer...
Plectro
oh boy were they mad

And here I thought the first ant died and they just walked over him. XD
OurLordLucifer
They are on a small, sticky cylinder
CaptainofPizza
3rd ant is walking backwards, in front of him is his ANTenna. PS fuck ants.
unencumberedbythethoughtprocess
Maybe its the spelling error in ant 2's comment.
JesicaWims
I was thinking shadow?
BigOrca
Ants are shady bitches
bfranks4life
"ant another ant behind me"
pjmontbleau
Yeah my guess was that #2 was retarded and that was the riddle
knowledgeguy
(Ant - ain't ) I thought the second ant was the third ant, and the third and was in the middle.
BecauseCanadian
That's actually quite clever
keelikat
My solution was "because they were in a desert, the 3rd ant was tripping balls from dehydration", but fine.
Minimum8peat
That was my thought.
IAlwaysUpvoteSunsets
Or the three ants were at the start of a line of a bunch more ants
420B0ngRips4Jesus69
I thought it was three live ants walking and a 4th dead ant in the back.
beefpelican
Or, given that they are walking in a straight line, the third ant is counting the first ant as technically the entire earth behind it.
ProgeriaProstitutes
It says right there there were only three though
Guywhoisblue22
It says there are 3 ants, but it doesn't say there are ONLY 3 ants, there could be more.
chazzykins
It literally says only ...are you a lying fucking ant?
ProgeriaProstitutes
It says EXACTLY that. Read it again
Guywhoisblue22
Lmao you right
GetSmartBeEvil
OriginalPostman is right. At the end of the image it says "only"
iedreams
3rd ant is facing backwards and walking backwards while holding a mirror
TheLordofMelons
3rd ant is walking backwards and 2nd ant spoke out loud. Ants were holding hands. Pheromones. Magic.
dorabletaspiradora
you're a genius
iMonaghan
Or like, a shadow?
Euffy
I just figured there were originally four ants and one died...left far behind...so only three ants walking. But technically, distant corpse.
Mcswigginsbar
Distant Corpse would be a great name for a band.

No matter how you position yourself, there's probably an ant behind you. It maybe accross the world, but its there alright
doofiTV
Flat Earther eh? Play on player.
AlexisWalker
Nah. Just extremely simplified geometry. If you have two points, it doesn't matter where they are. They WILL form a line between them. Fact.
AlexisWalker
That ant could be on another planet at the other end of the universe and still be a straight line from you.
