The zany demo video doesn't do this trick justice...the effect is very straightforward: you place a
straw into the hole of the metal tab on a borrowed can of soda, and then pull it straight through
the tab! You then hand out the straw and the can!
I love the method...it's simple and
elegant, and the gimmick can be created at a moment's notice. Being able to hand everything out
immediately is nice, too.
This is a visual, quick moment of magic that will surprise your
audience, and it's a perfect lead-in to other penetration effects. Maybe say it was while drinking a
soda when you were a kid that you realized you could pass solid through solid. Then build from
there.
Excellent quick trick!
