I'm 100% with Arefin... form the sheets of newspaper into a cone, place the egg in teh middle of the cone, tape the cone together. Whatever you do, do not tape the egg in place-- it will slide upwards as the cone crumbles.
Works everytime... try it, i won my middle school's egg-drop competition with that design back in the day. Although i used a sheet of computer paper.
Test it out
