Focus Description:

The magician asks one of the spectators to go on stage and choose an apple, and then hold it in his open palm. Taking some object like a sword, he steps back and with a precise movement worthy of a real d'Artagnan, cuts the apple into two absolutely identical halves. If among the spectators you cannot find a brave companion who is not afraid to put an apple on his palm, then you can call two people who will pull the scarf, holding it by the ends. An apple is placed on the scarf. The artist will divide the apple in half without damaging the scarf. As a reward, his assistants will receive half a fruit.

Focus secret:

Before this trick you need to practice well. The secret is that the apple should be prepared in advance. Such a fruit will shatter into two perfectly even halves from any blow, even not a very strong one. Moreover, the apple looks absolutely whole.

With an apple you need to do the following. Take a thin and long needle and a thin but very strong thread. The needle is carefully inserted under the skin of the apple, which is also carefully cut inside. This is almost jewelry work, because the needle must be passed under the skin about 3-4 cm, otherwise it can be damaged. Then the needle is pulled outward so that the thread extends 30-40 cm. In this case, the other end of the thread should be held with your left hand in the place where the needle entered the apple. Now the needle is stuck back into the same place where it just came out. It is again carried out under the skin, pulled out after 3-4 cm and brought out.

In general, adhering to this principle, they encircle the entire apple in a circle. After this, the needle is removed through the hole that was made first. Now the needle is removed from the thread. The thread is taken by both ends and stretched, so you can cut the apple in half with it, and the skin will remain intact. In appearance, such an apple does not reveal itself in any way, and the audience will be in complete confidence that it is no different from other apples.

The apple is chopped as follows. You need to quickly wave the weapon in the air, turn it over with a subtle movement and hit the apple with the blunt side of the blade. With such a blow, the apple will split in half.

By the way, you can amaze the audience even more if you chop the apple with the edge of your palm.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food.
