How to Make a Few Bucks at a Bar Blowing Eggs into Shotglasses

Rate: (4 Ratings)

Years ago, I used to bet people I could blow an egg from one shot glass into another. I made a few bucks with this trick or sometimes had a drink purchased for me. It's basically something that deals with the law of physics, but people will think you can't do it. I've proven them wrong many times.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

Things You’ll Need:

Two shot glasses of equal size
One uncooked egg

Step1

First you place the egg in one of the shotglasses, with the roundest end of the egg facing up. You'll notice if you hold the egg up, there is a slightly rounded end and one that is slightly curved to a point

Step2

Place the other shot glass next to one another. The shot glasses should be similar if not the same for optimum results.

Step3

Blow with all your breath, using everything within you from an angle, down onto the egg. It will jump from one shot glass to the other

Tips & Warnings

The way this works is that your breath goes under the egg, into the shot glass and forces the egg to jump from the air pressure beneath it.
This takes a few practices, but once you get it, it works every time.
Bet each person a couple of bucks that you can do it.
They'll be entertained and amazed.
