Magic Tricks Online

Today, with the incoming of the Internet, there are lots of sites which provide some great tips and tricks for people interested in magic to learn and perform. These are explained extremely well on these sites and can be easily learnt.

Here are two magic tricks online taken from the site http://www.conjuror.com/magictricks/free_tricks1.html , to show you how easy it is to pick up ideas and learn new tricks.

Trick Number 1 : The Self-Tying Handkerchief

A knot instantly ties itself at the end of a handkerchief!

REQUIREMENTS: One cloth handkerchief with a knot tied in one corner.Tell your friends that you can tie a knot in a handkerchief using only one hand! Pull the handkerchief out of your pocket, keeping the knot hidden in your hand. Pick up the opposite corner of the handkerchief with the other hand, and grasp the handkerchief, releasing the end without the knot. Pick up the hanging end with the other hand as before and repeat, again releasing the end without the knot. On the third try, let go of the knotted end, instead of the expected corner. The movement of the hand conceals the switch, and makes this a very baffling effect.

Trick Number 2 : Houdini Rubber Band Escape

A miniature escape that demonstrates how solid can pass through solid!

REQUIREMENTS: One medium sized rubber band.
This is sometimes also called the Hopping Rubber Band. You loop a rubber band over your first two fingers, and then it inexplicably jumps to the second two fingers. Begin by placing a rubber band over your forefinger and middle finger. Bring the rubber band all the way down to the base of the fingers. Hold your hand so its back is facing the audience. Pull the rubber band with your other hand to show that it is solid, and then at a point when the rubber band is still pulled a little bit out towards you, curl your fingers down.From your audience's view, it looks like the rubber band is still around only two of your fingers. Pause for just an instant, and then straighten your fingers out. The band will instantly jump over to your ring finger and pinky ! To make the rubber band jump back to your first two fingers, follow the same moves again. If you twist a second rubber band over the fingers above the first band, so that the fingers appear tied together, and then follow the same moves for the trick as above, the first rubber band will still be able to jump, seeming to penetrate right through the second band!
