Yep. That has to be the worst riddle posted here..

I got lazy too and just grabbed the first thing I found.

John, a party magician, is carrying three pieces of gold each piece weighing one kilogram.

While taking a walk he comes to a bridge which has a sign posted saying the bridge could hold only a maximum of 80 kilograms.

John weighs 78 kilograms and the gold weighs three kilograms.

John reads the sign and still safely crossed the bridge with all the gold.

How did he manage this?

does he take off all his clothes??

Does it have anything to do with him being a party magician and the bridge not being overly observant about this sort of thing?

No - although it is an option, but lets assume his clothes do not drop his weight enough

it does have something to do his profession. not sure what you mean about the bridge (or him) not being observant??
he does see the sign and crosses according to the weight rule

I was being mostly silly and a little bit wondering.
Is it because the gold is divided into 3 peices that he takes more than one trip... not much to do with his profession but all I can think of.

He levitates the gold, and his lovely assistant, over the bridge?
He takes all the weight all at once but makes the bridge beleive that he's only taken part of the gold and then when he gets to the other side magically makes the rest appear?
Magic simply defys logic?  Is that it?
He makes a string of cheesy jokes in the Riddles thread and while everyone is reading them and thinking "What an idiot" he runs across a fallen tree instead and then says "Behold! I have crossed the bridge."?

he makes them disappear...then reappear after he crosses???

i think ive heard this one...but i cant remember what it is. Is there another hint, without making it too easy?

Lol...you guys are on the right track....just need to think a bit more about what John is and how he could use that to his advantage! Remember a party magician can do many tricks....
