prop comedy
It’s a classic variety-show format where you use whatever’s in front of you and think about what kind of reaction to add to make it funnier.
Don’t just rely on the prepared props—make good use of whatever’s on hand and pursue laughs.
Go-to patterns include doing the item’s intended use with an exaggerated reaction, or going all-in on using it the “wrong” way.
If the audience can predict what you’re going to do just by seeing the item, the laughs tend to be weaker, so it’s best to keep an element of surprise in mind.
a full-on funny face
Pulling your most over-the-top funny face is a great, easy party trick! It might feel embarrassing and take some courage at first, but if you’re doing it as a gag, ditch the shyness and go all in.
If you half‑commit, it can actually feel even more embarrassing.
Scrunch up your face, use your hands if you want, and give it everything you’ve got! If you’re not sure how to do it well, try studying different funny faces on video sites.
tablecloth trick
Speaking of tablecloth pulling, it’s a classic one-shot party trick! Recently, the tablecloth-pulling performance by Yoshimoto Kogyo comedian Wes-P became a hot topic on TikTok.
It’s said to be a technique that applies the law of inertia, which we learned in science—the property of an object to remain at rest.
Even women can master it once they get the hang of it; it’s not a difficult trick.
The key is to yank the cloth as quickly as possible without creating wrinkles in the tablecloth.
Give it a try!
backflip
If a girl suddenly shows off some acrobatics, everyone’s sure to be amazed! If you’re confident in your athletic ability, why not try a back handspring? To master a back handspring—complete with the fear of flipping backward—steady practice is key.
Start with a cartwheel, then a cartwheel from a backward-facing position, and a macaco (a one-handed backward cartwheel), progressing step by step toward a back handspring.
Once you’ve got it, it can become an unexpected special skill and a great conversation starter.
When practicing, be sure to take care and avoid injuries!
vanishing tissue
A very simple magic trick where you crumple a tissue in your left hand, cast a little spell, and when you open your hand there’s nothing inside.
In reality, you’re just holding the crumpled tissue in your right hand, but surprisingly many people don’t notice until you reveal the secret.
makeup that makes you look like a different person
How about showing a makeup look that’s completely different from your usual face—as if you’ve turned into a totally different person! You could demonstrate the makeup on the spot, or prepare elsewhere and make a surprise entrance.
By shifting your eyebrow placement, making your eyes look bigger with inner-corner techniques or double eyelid tape, and using shading to make your bone structure appear smaller, you can transform yourself with a variety of methods.
Picture the face you want, study how that person’s facial features are shaped, and with thorough research, you’ll get closer to your desired look—a whole new you!
Coin magic muscle pass
It’s a quick trick you can do anywhere as long as you have a coin.
Of course, a coin dropped from the upper hand will fall downward due to gravity, but in this trick you toss the coin from the lower hand to the upper hand without using your fingers, making it look as if the coin is floating.
The key is to flick the coin using the base of your thumb.
Give it a try and start practicing!
