Does anyone know how to do this magic trick?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:I know the answer to your question, but I have a kind of “problem” with telling you (and everyone else) the secret to that trick, because it is unethical for even an amateur magician (such as I) to publicly reveal to another person, precisely how a trick is accomplished. Other magicians (both professional & amatuer) would roundly and publicly condemn me, for revelaing how a magic trick is done. I will tell you (and this is no secret) that there are magic books at the public library that easily reveal the secret to that trick, and I have violated no rules of ethics, by informing you of that. One of my favorite tricks that I do for my friends, is that I sit down at the kitchen table, and, right before their amazed eyes, I make an entire chocolate cake disappear, in a matter of minutes. [Burp!]
