Focus Description:

The magician demonstrates to the public two one and a half meter ordinary (unprepared) ropes and asks two volunteers to go up to the stage to assist him. Each viewer is given one of the ropes to check its integrity and strength. The audience checks the ropes, and at this time the magician places a chair in the center of the stage. After the audience confirms that the ropes are flawless, the magician sits on a chair and allows two volunteers to tie their legs at the knees and their hands at the wrists.

The spectators, making sure that the magician is securely bound, cover his wrists with a large piece of cloth. Instantly, one of the magician's hands is free, but before the audience can remove the cloth, the magician's hand is again hidden under it. When the cloth is removed, the audience sees that the magician is bound just as securely as before the cloth was thrown over.

The magician asks the astonished spectators to tie another knot in the ropes above their wrists. They then cover the wrists again with the cloth. And again the magician is freed from the ropes. This time, by lifting the fabric, the audience sees that he has completely freed himself - no other way than the ropes penetrated through his arms and legs!

Focus secret:

For this trick, you will need two one and a half meter ropes, an opaque square scarf with a side of 1,2 meters and a chair.

1. Invite two volunteers to the stage who will agree to assist you. Give each of them one of the ropes to test. While they are checking the ropes, place a chair in the center of the stage.

2. Take the ropes from the audience and hang them on the right hand. We will call one of them rope A. The middle of rope A should lie over the index finger of the right hand closer to the thumb. Now take another rope from the viewer on the left. Let's call it rope B. Place the middle of rope B between the index and middle fingers of the right hand, closer to the fingertips.

3. Passing the ropes from your right hand to your left, you must make the following series of movements. When you do them, the spectator on the left, at your request, will bend down in front of you to "check" the chair with another spectator.

4. With your left hand, grasp rope B at a point about 15 cm below the center of the loop, and let rope A slip from the index finger of your right hand into the loop formed by rope B.

5. With your right hand, lift the base of the loop of rope B and bend it over rope A to point X.

6. Cover the hooking of the two ropes with your fingers, closing them.

7. The audience believes that the two ropes pass straight through the closed palm of the left hand.

8. Two spectators have already checked the chair by now, so stand directly in front of it. Invite the audience to stand side by side, each on their own side of the chair.

9. Now put your right hand behind your legs and grasp both ends of rope B with your right hand. The left hand still holds the hook in the palm of your hand. Bring the ends of both A and B around the legs so that the "hook" is under the left knee. Then sit down and at this point, lay the loops in the bend under the left knee.

10. Hooked loops should be brought exactly into the inner curve of the left knee so that when you sit down, you firmly clamp them under the knee. Next, the left hand slips out from under the knee outward along the rope.

11. Note. At the end of stage 10, the audience sees only two separate ropes passing directly under your knees.

12. Cross the two pairs of ends on your knees, making sure that the left side pair B crosses the right side pair A from below. Pull the ropes. You have undoubtedly tied your legs at the knees.

13. Put your hands on your knees. The loops, hooked, are held firmly in the bend of the left knee.

14. Invite a spectator on the left to tie your hands tightly at the wrists, making as many knots as they wish.

15. Ask the viewer on the right to cover your hands and knees with a handkerchief.

16. Under the scarf, turn the brushes to the right. You will find that the left hand will easily free itself from the rope. Take your left hand out from under the handkerchief, straighten the handkerchief with it. Usually this action is accompanied by friendly laughter in the hall. Quickly slide your left hand under the handkerchief and into the ropes. Turn your hands to the left so that the ropes are taut again.

17. Ask the viewer on the right to remove the handkerchief. The public sees that you are still firmly connected. For persuasiveness, invite the viewer to tie another knot on top of those that already exist.

18. When the knot is tied, the spectator standing on the right, at your request, again covers his knees with a handkerchief. Once the handkerchief is in your lap, twist your hands to the right as in step 16. This time, release both hands and remove them from under the handkerchief. To the laughter of the audience, grasp the ropes through the handkerchief and, having released the loops hooked with the "hook" with your left knee, sharply lift the handkerchief with the ropes. Ropes hang freely from under the scarf, apparently magically penetrating through the arms and legs.

19. Stand up and drop the handkerchief with the ropes on the chair seat. Thank the volunteers for their help and congratulate them on how cleverly they tied you up.

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 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.

USB 3.1 up to 10 Gbps 07.08.2013

The USB 3.0 Promoter Group has finalized the USB 3.1 specification for SuperSpeed ​​USB operation at speeds up to 10 Gbps.

The SuperSpeed ​​USB 10Gbps interface provides better data encryption and more than double the performance of the current SuperSpeed ​​USB interface. At the same time, the improved interface has backward compatible USB connectors and cables. Full interoperability is provided by existing software stacks and device class protocols, as well as existing 5Gb/s hubs and USB 2.0 products.

According to Brad Saunders, Chairman of the USB 3.0 Promoter Group, the USB 3.1 specification primarily expands the capabilities of the existing USB 3.0 protocol and hub while scaling data transfer rates to 10Gbps at a higher physical layer.

The working group has tried to keep changes to support high speeds to be limited and consistent with the existing USB 3.0 architecture, which will facilitate the development of new products.
