Think magic is just an illusion? Think again…
Perform science experiments so amazing that they must be magic
Each “trick” or experiment in the book uses easy to get hold of items. This trick is a good one to help you amaze your friends! Challenge a friend to remove an empty drink can from a mug without touching the can or turning the mug upside down. It’s hard to do!
The Incredible Jumping Drink Can!
Here’s the trick:
Place the empty can inside a mug big enough to leave a little gap round the sides.Blow down hard into the gap between the can and the mug—the can will shoot out! Blow slightly from the side so you don’t get hit.
Each “magic trick” explains the science behind it
Here’s the science for this one: When you blow into the gap you squeeze the air already there down. When you try to squeeze air like this, the air pushes back in all directions. You’re making the air pressure increase. This high-pressure air then pushes against the bottom of the can, which results in it rising up and flying out of the mug.
