you cover a dinner roll with a napkin. slowly, magically, it seems to rise up, floating into the air underneath the napkin, apparently its under its own control. Finally it lands again. you take the napkin away and... there it is... an ordinary dinner roll.
the secret
behind the napkin (paper napkins do not work. cloth only) , you stab the roll with a fork. you're actually controlling the roll from the corner of the napkin (thanks to your hand on the fork). But knowing how it works is only 5 percent of this one. The remaining 95% is all in the showmanship, baby.
