Effect:
You are walking down the street and casually
pick any spectator.
You ask them to come
with you to a nearby car and pick a dead fly off the
windscreen.
You hold it in your
hand do a few passes with the other hand and appear to
be really concentrating and the fly slowly comes back to
life to the surprise of the spectator.
Preparation:
Freeze the fly
Method:
You need to catch a fly and freeze it which puts it in a
temporary coma,
this can be done by swatting the fly
hard enough to immobilise it then placing it in a small
container in the freezer.
The fly then needs to
be quickly taken to a suitable windscreen IN THE SHADE
and placed there.
It is important that
the car is in the shade to prevent the fly from
defrosting too quickly.
Then go and find a
spectator and take them back to the car which should
appear to be randomly picked.
The heat of your hand
will revive the fly which should soon start to move.
A lot of this trick
is in the actions of you reviving the fly.
It may be necessary
to practice how long it takes for the fly to revive
itself.
Freezing the fly as
quickly as possible with dry ice is a better way of
freezing the fly as because it is quicker it causes less
damage to the fly.
