[Never Struggle Again!!] A Catalog of Crowd-Pleasing Party Tricks (51–60)
air guitar
Since comedian Yōsuke Daichi of the duo Dainoji won the world championship in 2006, air guitar has become a full-fledged mainstream phenomenon in Japan.
It’s all about pretending to play as if you’re holding a guitar—everything is “air”—but when you watch someone really good, there’s a sharpness to it that makes it look like they’re actually performing, and you can’t help but get into it yourself.
How about trying air guitar as entertainment at your next event? It takes a bit of practice, but the cost to practice and perform is zero—you can do it with just your body.
Pi recitation
Memorize lots of digits of pi and casually recite them.
It may seem low-key at first glance, but hardly anyone memorizes this much, so people will be impressed! Once you’ve learned it, it’s a one-shot trick you can show off in all sorts of situations.
Why not try memorizing it yourself?
Bottle flip
Bottle flipping is a game where you throw a plastic bottle filled with water, make it rotate once, and have it land upright.
It sounds easy when you put it into words, but it’s actually quite tricky! Skill matters, and things like how much water you put in the bottle also seem to make a difference.
It looks cool if you can pull off high-difficulty tricks, like landing it on top of a ball!
Fluttering Tissue Grab
As the title suggests, it’s an activity where you catch falling tissues with chopsticks.
Simply grabbing them can feel a bit underwhelming, so try spicing it up: make it a head-to-head challenge, use more awkward tools, or add penalty games—experiment with various twists to make it more exciting.

Illusion Dance
A dance that makes you think, “Something’s off,” even though they’re just walking or dancing normally.
Dancers wear different-colored outfits on the left and right sides, and those colors line up with the person next to them, making the movements look strange.
For some reason, even just walking is funny.
As long as you have the costumes, anyone can do it easily!
tap dance
How about a crowd-pleasing hidden talent with tap dance? With its dynamic, pulsing rhythms, it’s sure to delight your audience! It can be a bit of work to prepare since you’ll need special shoes, but anyone can enjoy the basic steps.
Aim for a powerful performance like Bill “Bojangles” Robinson and give it a try.
Tap dance, which creates delightful sounds from passionate steps, is sure to bring the house down!
Cup Toss
It’s a trick where you blow on cups to flip and stack them using only your breath.
You can’t use just any cup, so it might be hard to do right away…
But it would be great if you could perform it using paper cups during a house party.
With practice, you can stack many cups.
