MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
......and how do you do them?
not sure we've ever had a thread on this but ive only got one crap trick that gets people from time to time, the 'rubbing a coin into your arm' trick.
got me thinking, do you have any little party tricks, card tricks, just quick tricks that fool your kids/grandkids/mates down the pub? im not on about yer david copperfields and dynamos, although it would be great to know how they do those big tricks too if anyone knows?
lets have a magic thread 🙂
I can do a card trick where someone picks a card, gives it to me and I place it back in the pack and shuffle.
I then scan the pack and hand them their card. It's proper magic I tell thee. I learnt it from a book I had when I was a nipper - "Card Tricks & Patience". Can't find the book and can only remember that one trick from it.
I can turn wine into "water"
APF
I can make pints disappear....
The elephant and the windmill. Not really socially acceptable these days though.
I’m an illusionist.
My ex could make money vanish, a lot of it in a very short time.
One to do at home with visiting children.
Get two packs of identical cards. Choose a card, say 3 of clubs. Take 3 of clubs from pack 1, hide it upstairs under the bathmat. Take second pack of cards, get a volunteer to choose a card. Force the 3 of clubs (e.g. use the hindu force see https://rebelmagic.com/card-tricks/forces/ ) Get volunteer to show the card to the audience, repeat that it is the card that they've chosen, get them to put it back in the pack and shuffle the pack.
Then tell them that when you throw the pack of cards at the ceiling they will all fall to the floor apart from the chosen card which will magically go through the ceiling and the floorboards and end up in the bathroom. Get them ready to run up the stairs as soon as you throw the cards. 1, 2, 3 throw! They all run up the stairs, initial disapointment until they look under the bathmat and there is their card!!!!
I can make chocolate biscuits disappear.
I’m an illusionist.
I'm a disillusionist.
I turn your dreams to sand.
None at all - however, my Grandfather was the longest serving President of the Magic Circle...
do you have any little party tricks
I'm an exorcist. If you invite me to your party by the end of the night all the spirits will be gone.
I can steal your nose.
I didn't got to work for three weeks once and nobody noticed. True story, very strange place to work, they sacked us all after a few years.
I can turn a tractor into a field.
oh dear, this hasnt turned out the way i was hoping it would :-/
Have 'audience' place a pound coin in each of my hands. Close fists. Place another coin on top of my fingers on each hand. Turn hands over and grab. Open hands - three coins in one hand, one in the other.
Challenge a buxom young lady that you are able to make her boobs jiggle without touching them.
Give her a pound coin to hold tightly in each hand, and inform her that, if your attempt is unsuccessful, she gets to keep the money as a reward for defeating you.
Have her stand with arms outstretched, still tightly grasping the cash.
Confirm that your volunteer is ready and willing to proceed.
Loudly announce "Bollocks to this! Keep the two quid!"
Firmly grasp the boobies in your hands and jiggle*
Get arrested.
*Really, Don't do this. It's a hypothetical situation for comedy purposes only.
Dammit PP, I was doing your instructions step-by-step, without reading through first
Get arrested
didn't get arrested. got punched.
didn’t get arrested. got punched.
Totally worth it then 😉
I'm very adept at the 'hide the sausage' trick.
Yup, done PP's trick, but thanks to when it was (circa 1996) and the power of inflation, it only cost me a quid 🙂
I'm definitely not a magician but I can pull a hair out my arse.
