Magic Pen Tricks

Video Transcript

"Hi! I'm Greg from Expert Village, and I'm going to show you some easy to do magic tricks that you can perform at work. Since we're having so much fun making things disappear, let's make a coin disappear...and make it reappear inside the cap. If you take a pen, start waving it up and down. The molecules start to spin around and jump and it gets warm and it gets soft and it turns very, very, very soft. Of course, that's useless so let's make it hard again. Let's do something with shadow. I'm not even going to touch this pen. I'm going to let my shadow do the magic. They say Romanian money can't be damaged and you cannot tear. I wonder how well it would stand up to being stabbed with a pen...like so. Well there Mr. Romanian government, who has the last laugh now? Numbers can be used to tell a lot about people. Just off the top of you head, give me a 3 digit number. 823. okay. Now, reverse that. 328. I want you to subtract the smaller number from the larger number. So, 823 minus 328. That gives us 495. If we reverse that, that's 594. Then add those 2 numbers together. So 495 plus 594 equals 1,084. What does that tell me about you? Well, it tells me that you're very predictable. Take a pen and squeeze the opposite wrist, and then open that hand. The pen floats. Have you seen this trick before? Are you counting the number of fingers? I only have 3 fingers on that wrist. I'll just take that hand away. I fooled ya. Take a look at this bill. Notice that there is a flamingo on the front. Fold it 3 times. Pay attention that there is nothing else in my hands. And now the bill has changed. Alright, don't do this in the office. Do this in the lunch room. Do this outside on your smoke break. Shake up a cola or any carbonated beverage, and then take one that's not shaken. Now, where are the bubbles? The bubbles are going up, right? So if I do this, the bubbles are floating up into this top one. Aren't they? Now, they're all up here. So I can open up this can and not be afraid to get splattered. The bubbles are in here, correct?
