Today's Daily Brain Teaser (Aug 26, 2014)

Over Fifty In My Kingdom



There are over fifty members in my family;

Yet none quarrel. We all live merrily.



Four leaders have we, all with a bride;

Each has a son who has great pride.



We also have servants who make funny gestures;

But they are hardly used, as they often pester.



The peasants are at the bottom of the line;

Although they outnumber us, they haven't a right mind.



What are we?





Check Braingle.com for the answer.

However, today’s optical illusion involves a very special brand of bike that is incredibly rare. This young lady is riding a motorcycle that is made entirely out of human beings! What do you all think of this very human bike? Clearly, this human bike is a work of body art, but you have to admit that it is pretty spectacular.
