Magic Trick For Free
There is a number of fun and easy-to-do magic tricks which a
budding magician can learn to perform.
The key to showing off a magic trick is to practice until you
have it perfected.
Here is one free magic trick for budding magicians. By trying
out the basic magic tricks first, you can later move on to more
complicated tricks and stunts to make you a joy to watch.
'The Magic Bottle Trick'
This is how the trick would look to a spectator:
First, the performer would ask for a volunteer from the
audience. The volunteer would look inside the bottle that the
magician is holding and show it off to the rest of the audience
as a typical, empty bottle.
Then, the volunteer would return the bottle to the magician and
also examine the magic wand.
The magician will drop the wand into the bottle, then turn the
bottle over and let go of the wand.
The trick is for the wand to remain suspended inside the bottle.
Here are the supplies needed to pull off this magic bottle trick:
1. An eraser.
2. A bottle with a large opening where the wand would fit into.
The bottle should be opaque.
3. A 'magical' wand which is taller than the bottle. Once you
drop the wand into the bottle, part of it should stick up
through the opening.
Cut off a piece of the eraser and make it be just big enough for
you to wedge the wand into the bottle opening.
The eraser is the key to make the trick work.
This is where the trick comes in:
The magician would pass the bottle to a volunteer in the
audience to make sure that the container is empty.
Then, the magician will take the bottle back and give the wand
to a participant in the audience.
He would then slip the eraser into the bottle in such a way that
it is hidden from everyone in the audience. The wand is taken
back and later dropped into the bottle.
Afterwards, the wand and the bottle are picked up very slowly,
upside down.
Then, the wand is slightly pulled while the bottle is being
turned over. The eraser then gets wedged into the opening, then
the magician lets go of the magic wand and voila!
The wand does not fall out. Slowly turn the bottle upright
again, let go of everything and the wand remains suspended in
the bottle and more importantly, it does not fall back down.
The wand is slightly pushed to release the rubber, and it is
slowly taken out and finally removed.
