Hilarious Magic! Crowd-Pleasing Tricks Perfect for Parties and Performances (21–30)
A magic trick where a torn rubber band returns to its original state
This is a magic trick that uses an optical illusion to make a torn rubber band appear to restore itself.
You can perform it right away as long as you have a rubber band.
First, hold the rubber band with your thumbs and middle fingers on the left and right.
Then insert your index fingers in between and move your thumbs and middle fingers outward.
It will look as if the rubber band has snapped.
In reality, it’s just being pulled upward, so when you let go, it returns to its original state.
It’s great because it’s easy to learn quickly.
If you let the audience clearly confirm that it looks torn, it will make the trick even more exciting.
Hamburger Magic
This is a magic trick where a real hamburger appears from a hamburger menu hanging on the wall.
When you wave both hands over it, the hamburger on the menu disappears and is replaced by a real hamburger.
You take a bite of the hamburger and place it back on the menu.
Then, the menu shows a photo of a bitten hamburger.
The hamburger magic is one of the signature tricks of the famous magician Cyril.
It’s highly impactful and has been featured on television.
While it’s quite difficult for beginners, the sense of accomplishment when you pull it off is immeasurable.
Give it a try!
Hilarious Magic! Audience-Pleasing Tricks Perfect for Parties and Events (31–40)
Teleporting tissues?
This is a magic trick that makes it look like you teleported a tissue.
You clutch the tissue in one hand and pretend to teleport it to the other hand.
Tell the audience that the teleportation is complete.
Then, without opening your palm, make it “teleport” back to the original hand and show the tissue to the audience.
In reality, it never moved and stayed in the first hand the whole time, so there’s nothing difficult about it.
The audience knows it didn’t actually teleport, so it should get a good reaction.
You might need more practice with patter than with the trick itself.
Human body-sawing magic trick
A magician climbs into a three-tiered box that fully hides their body, and another magician moves one of the sections.
Even though the body parts appear to move inside each separate box, it looks as if the body has been split into three.
Then, using transparent boxes, they reveal how the trick actually works.
Timing, it seems, is a crucial technique in magic.
A magic trick where chopsticks end up in your nose
This is a magic trick that looks both comical and mysterious: a chopstick pressed against the nose is sucked into the nostril in an instant.
To emphasize that it really went into the nose, be mindful to mimic inhaling air and to show a surprised expression when it “gets sucked in.” Without moving the chopstick itself, you slide your hand along it while it’s held to the nose, and ultimately conceal the chopstick inside your hand.
It’s also crucial to decide how you’ll handle the chopstick hidden in your hand to convincingly show that it was sucked in and vanished.
The rolled-up tissue disappears.
Prepare a small, balled-up tissue and hide it in either your right or left hand.
Then ask, “Which hand has the tissue?” At first glance, it looks like a simple little game, but after repeating it a few times, there’s a mischievous twist where you quickly toss the tissue away.
Others can see you’ve thrown it, so the sight of someone seriously trying to choose the right or left hand becomes surreal—and irresistibly funny.
Mummy’s Finger
A magician says he’ll show an Arabian secret treasure—the “Mummy’s Finger”—as a birthday treat.
He takes out a small wooden box and shows its contents to the audience members one by one.
For some reason, they all start to laugh.
Inside the box is the magician’s own finger.
It’s a joke trick where the bottom of the box is cut out and he sticks his finger through.
