Trick # 1 |
|
The Self-Tying
Handkerchief
A knot instantly ties itself
at the end of a handkerchief!
| REQUIREMENTS: One cloth handkerchief with a knot
tied in one corner. |
Tell your friends that you can tie a
knot in a handkerchief using only one
hand!
Pull the handkerchief out of your
pocket, keeping the knot hidden in your hand (Fig. 1). Pick up the
opposite corner of the handkerchief with the other hand, and grasp
it as in Figure 2.
Snap the
handkerchief, releasing the end without the knot. Pick up the
hanging end with the other hand as before and repeat, again
releasing the end without the knot.
On
the third try, let go of the knotted end as shown (Figure 3),
instead of the expected corner. The movement of the hand conceals
the switch, and makes this a very baffling effect. |

Trick #2 |
|
Cut & Restored String
A string or rope is cut into two pieces, and then magically
restored into one piece!
| REQUIREMENTS: |
1.) One piece of heavy string or thin rope
2.) A piece of
writing paper.
3.) A pair of good scissors. |
 |
The Cut-and-Restored rope effect is a
classic of magic. Prefold a piece of paper before the show so it looks
like the paper in Figure 1. When it's time to present the trick, pull
out the paper and lay the string in it as shown.
|
| Fold the top of the paper (section A)
down, then fold the bottom of the paper (section C) up. Now for the
secret move:
When you fold section C up over section A, use your thumb to
catch the string as demonstrated in Figure 2. When you prefold the
paper before the show be certain that section A is not so long that
it will cover the string. |
|
 |
Securely grasp the package as in Figure
3, making sure that the view shown in the diagram is seen only by you. |
Cut through the paper, as shown in Figure 4. Cut completely through
the paper, dividing it and, presumably, the rope in half. In reality,
only the paper is cut in half, the rope is still intact.
Crumple up the paper, and pull the rope
out slowly. It is restored into one complete piece! The paper may be
examined, and it will be seen to have been cleanly cut into two
halves! |

Trick #3 |
|
Coin
Through Elbow
A coin mysteriously vanishes into thin air!
| REQUIREMENTS: |
1.) One coin.
2.) A table to sit at.
3.) A chair to sit in. |
Magic with money is always of interest, and coin magic has the
advantage of being done with something that can be carried, or
borrowed on the spot!
Display the coin in your hand, and then rub it into your elbow,
announcing you are going to make it disappear! After a few moments
drop the coin onto the table and say it usually works better with the
other hand.
Pick the coin up and pretend to put it into the other hand. Then,
pretend to rub "the coin" into your elbow, while the hand that is
really holding the coin goes up behind your ear. Drop the coin into
the back of your shirt collar, and then show that the coin has
vanished, and both hands are absolutely empty!

Trick #4 |
|
Houdini Rubber Band Escape
A miniature escape that demonstrates
how solid can pass through solid!
REQUIREMENTS: One medium sized rubber band.
|
This is sometimes
also called the Hopping Rubber Band. You
loop a rubber band over your first two
fingers, and then it inexplicably jumps to
the second two fingers.
Begin by placing a rubber band over
your forefinger and middle finger as shown
in Figure 1. Bring the rubber band all the
way down to the base of the fingers. Hold
your hand so its back is facing the
audience.
Pull the rubber band with your other
hand to show that it is solid, and then at
a point when the rubber band is still
pulled a little bit out towards you, curl
your fingers down as in Figure 2.
From your audience's view, it looks
like the rubber band is still around only
two of your fingers.
Pause for just an instant, and then
straighten your fingers out. The band will
instantly jump over to your ring finger and
pinky (Figure 3)!
To make the rubber band jump back to
your first two fingers, follow the same
moves again.
If you twist a second rubber band over
the fingers above the first band, as in
Figure 4, so that the fingers appear tied
together, and then follow the same moves
for the trick as above, the first rubber
band will still be able to jump, seeming to
penetrate right through the second band!

Trick #5 |
|
The Vanishing Knot
Make a knot disappear from a rope or
handkerchief, even a borrowed one!
REQUIREMENTS: One handkerchief or woman's
scarf. A soft rope can also be used.
 |
Here's another
classic effect! To perform this trick you
must twirl a handkerchief into a ropelike
shape, and then hold it between the index
and middle fingers of each hand, palms up,
as shown in Figure 1. |
|
| |
Take the end in your
right hand (if you are right handed) and
lay it between the thumb and forefinger of
the left hand, as in Figure 2. |
 ; |
 |
In Figure 2 you are
still holding onto part of the handkerchief
with your right hand. Use your right hand
to position that part of the hankerchief
between the second and third fingers of the
left hand, as you reach through the loop
with your right hand and grasp the closest
dangling end (Figure 3).
|
|
 |
Pull that end
through the loop, being certain to keep
your grip on the part of the handkerchief
between the left second and third fingers
(Figure 4). As you pull the end through
with your right hand, you will notice a
loop forms around your left middle finger.
Withdraw your finger, leaving the loop
hidden behind the knot, and display the
hanging knot as in Figure 5.
|
|
| |
Now, blow on the knot
while giving it a gentle shake, or while
pulling lightly on the free end with the
other hand, and the knot will disappear
into thin air!
