Ellen DeGeneres Hilariously Tried Out A 4,000-Piece Puzzle While Social Distancing But Didn’t Go As Planned



During this period of social distancing as a result of COVID-19, many of us might take the time to watch iconic film series, including Sharknado 1–6, Harry Potter and Twilight.

But I'm, however, here to throw a new adventure into the mix: On Instagram, Ellen DeGeneres recently tried to do a 4,000-piece puzzle.

The epic footage with Ellen chilling in her mansion featured a talk about how bored she was. ‘Pouring down raining. It’s not like I can even do anything anyway.’ Ellen said.

The puzzle is painted by Giovanni Paola Pannini and called ‘Galleria Di Vedute Di Roma Moderna. If you can't lay hands on this masterpiece, you can print out a copy, tear it into 4000 pieces and play along.

‘It’s going to keep me busy for at least an hour.’ Ellen said at the beginning of her video. Going forward, her video took a dark turn with a puzzle piece going ahead to ruin the party for other 3,999 – That’s right!

Nevertheless, if you think merry tales was now rid of strife, think again – step one of the puzzles, turning over 4000 pieces of puzzle proves to severely tedious.

She continued: ‘4,000 pieces is quite ridiculous. I am not going to do it because I am not stupid. You win today puzzle.’

There’s practically a reason why nobody does the 4000 piece puzzles unless driven to the outright brink of boredom. Putting in two hours of time for all the bits, Ellen had enough and ran out of space.
