You're about to learn three ways to bend a spoon as well
as a host of easy magic tricks that employ spoons.
First I'm going to show you the tricks and then I'll show you how to do them. Let's get started.
So
here's what you'll need for the trick. You'll need a spoon and a less expensive
spoon is always better because it's magnetic. Because in my hand over here I have a band-aid
and a magnet taped onto my hand. And that is the secret. So take your very inexpensive
spoon - you're going to have to bend it a little bit. You'll notice that the profile is a little
off here and that's because Imade it so there's a little bit of a balance point here. And that way
it balances and will freely turn. So all you do is bring your spoon out, place it on the
table - make sure your hand is far away depending on the strength of your magnet, you don't want to
affect it at this point. You want the spoon to be still. And then just by waving your hand here
you can capture the spoon and start causing it to spin as if you're moving it with your
mind. And then you can freely show the spoon at the end and have spectators
examine it.
All you need is an ordinary spoon and it's all in how you hold the hands. Now see? It looks as
if I'm bending the spoon but it's all in the right hand. What I'm actually doing is I'm
loosely holding the spoon and then as I push down, the spoon actually moves in this motion. So if i
can do it with one hand you can see how that goes down but with cover with the other hand, it looks
like the spoon is bending. To bring it back just spin it around and show it's fully intact.
For version two you'll need a nickel. So what you do is - Ijust like to hide
the nickel in my hand here and Ishow the spoon and then Iplace the nickel
on top right here on the spoon and then as I'm setting this up,
the nickel looks like the tip of the spoon's handle, but it is not. And then you can go
and do the bend and that adds an extra little convincer. When you bring it back,
just hide the nickel in your hand while showing the spoon.
Well I hope that you have fun performing these tricks for your family and friends.
