Zippo Tricks

Zippo tricks are tricks which are performed with the use of a lighter. Once, you understand and learn the basic maneuvers, these tricks can be rather easy to perform. Moreover, they can be performed at any place and any time and can act as a great tool to impress your froends or your date.

Here are some very easy tricks which can be performed by using the lighter :

Zippo Trick Number 1 :

You start the lighter with your middle finger across the front of the lighter. The first finger will be behind, on the case and the third finger behind on the cap. Now, slide open the cap with your third finger. Swing the lighter to between the second and third fingers. Then, take the cap between the thumb and second/first fingers and light with the third finger.

Zippo Trick Number 2 :

Hold 2 lighters side by side in your left hand. Have the cap up of both the lighters. Hold them together, with your thumb on the body of the lighter towards you, and your ring and middle finger on the body of the outer lighter.

Now, use a snapping motion on both of the caps to open the first lighter, then snap to light that lighter. Then, flick the cap of the second lighter open. If you manage to do this correctly, the second lighter should be lit upon opening. Use one flick to close both caps.

Zippo Trick Number 3 :

This trick requires the use of the Mexican Backflip maneuver. In the Mexican Backflip, the ring finger is on the lid, middle finger on hinge, and index finger on the case.

Now, push the hinge down to open the lighter. The case should now be in between the middle and index finger, with your palm facing downwards.
Keep the middle finger still and move the index finger under the lighter to turn it on its side. If you have done this correctly, the middle and index fingers should be parallel to each other, and relatively close together with your palm still down.

Next, turn your palm up, therefore turning the lighter upside down, and at the same time put your thumb on the wheel, and your ring finger on the bottom of the lighter.

Push down on the wheel with your thumb, having the ring finger for support, and simply light up.
