- The Impossible Pickup
-
-
-
- Place a dime or penny on a bar or table
- and place your hand over it. You
- quickly raise your hand and close it
- into a fist. The coin is in your palm.
- Yet when someone else tries it, the coin
- remains on the table.
-
- The secret: Put your hand on the coin so
- that the coin rests on the ball of your
- hand just below the third finger. Now
- just before you lift it, press down hard
- and quickly lift your hand. The
- pressure will cause the coin to stick to
- your palm just long enough to grab it as
- you lift your hand and close your fist.
