Magnetic
Fingers Trick
This trick appears to be like
hypnotism - Is your patter good enough to convince them
?
Ask your friend if
you could try a little "instant hypnosis" on them.
Assure them that it's safe and nothing harmful can or
will happen.
Next, ask your
friend to fold their hands together, weaving the fingers
and clasping them tightly. After a few
moments of doing
this, tell them to raise their two index (first) fingers
so they are sticking up and they should be about an inch
apart ("church and steeple" kind of thing).
Now, slowly move
your hands over their hands (don't touch their hands)
and say, "Your fingers will touch. Try to fight
it, but they will still touch!"
Slowly, but
inevitably, your friends fingers will start to move
together. Tell them to concentrate on their fingers
(just ham it up, okay?) and soon their fingers will
touch.
This is
self-working, but it should still be practiced! It's a
great bar
trick, to. Have fun!
