Pegless Painting Plummets! (2) (Posted on 2006-06-02)

It is strongly recommended that you try this one first.

Can you hang a painting from three pegs such that the removal of any single peg causes the painting to fall?

have three pegs in a horizontal plane, parallel to the ground (like the ceiling). Then suspend the painting from them. Removing any peg will cause the painting to fall to a lower position.
