Magicians

How do they do it? lol!

Having watched Britain's Got Talent tonight and that fantastic magician producing a signed piece of paper out the middle of a lemon right in front of the judges, I just want to know HOW DID HE DO THAT?

I don't suppose anyone will have the answer but any ideas anyone, cos I haven't!

I'd love the answer, too! It's a long time since I've been so impressed by a magician's act.

He's top class. This should make him famous - he won't be working for peanuts anymore!

He did it by putting a piece of paper in the lemon before performing the trick, then used sleight of hand to fool the judges and viewers.
There is no such thing as magic, it is all illusions.

Re: Magicians

I thought he was very good as a magician, there is not that many of them around. Sure if I was to stop and pause the tv so that I can see what he is doing in slow motion I would probably catch on. But no I will take it as it was a good performance.

Re: Magicians

It's being said on a few websites that there was a pre drilled hole in the bottom of the lemon.
I suppose there had to be really - but what a wonderful sleight of hand!!

I wish now I'd recorded it so I can play it back.
