Aim to be popular! A party trick that will hype up the school

To become the most popular kid in class, you need to show off your talents in various ways—like having a great sense of humor, being good at sports, or always getting perfect scores on tests.

But why not aim for popularity by showing off some awesome tricks outside of those areas too? In this article, we introduce party tricks that will liven up your school.

We’ve gathered a wide range—from super easy ones to those you can master with practice—so give them a try and become the star of your class!

Aim to be popular! One-shot gags that will hype up the school (91–100)

Eyeball Relay

Eye relay (10 round trips left-right)

Move each eye independently: the eyeball relay.

Shifting from right to left and left to right makes a big visual impact—almost a touch of horror.

If you feel confident, try moving them not just side to side but in various directions.

Move your ears

Move your ears

It’s a one-shot gag as simple as it gets: moving your ears.

Maybe some of you managed to do it just by watching this! There are also other body tricks, like bending your elbow joint in a weird direction or, with your right and left hands linked together, diving through them like a jump rope.

soft fingers

My fingers?! They’re so soft!!

If your finger joints are flexible, how about this? The finger is bending limply in a direction that would normally be impossible.

Visually, it looks a bit scary.

With some stretching, you can increase the range of motion to a certain extent, but be careful not to push it too far and injure yourself.

Fold a crane with your feet

Fold a crane with your feet

For those who aren’t good at sports but excel at detailed tasks, I recommend folding a crane with your feet.

The method is the same as when you make one with your hands.

Focus your attention on your toes.

Practice so you can fold neatly.

Once you get used to it, feel free to pick up the speed.

The Medicine Peddler (Uirō Uri)

How about performing “Uirō-uri,” one of the Eighteen Great Kabuki Plays? That said, rather than staging a kabuki performance, let’s try reciting and memorizing Uirō-uri.

It’s well known as a tool for articulation training used by announcers and voice actors.

If you can do this, it’s quite a respectable skill, isn’t it? Can you present it smoothly—without mistakes, without stumbling, and without getting stuck?

Milk chugging

[Guinness] A new world record…!? I chugged 1 liter of milk for real and ended up with an insane time lol
Milk chugging

A chugging-style gag is guaranteed to get everyone hyped.

If you’re doing it at school, how about trying to chug the milk that often comes with school lunch? If you can really drink it fast, it’ll be a big hit, and even if you end up sputtering mid-way, it’ll probably get some laughs.

Just be careful not to overdo it or you might upset your stomach.

chugging carbonated drink

[Super Illusion] I tried which carbonated drink makes the biggest burp! Cola, Cider, Wilkinson
chugging carbonated drink

A foolproof party trick! How about chugging a carbonated drink? As you all know, you can’t really chug carbonation.

It stings your tongue and throat, and you feel like you’re going to burp midway…

But wouldn’t it hype everyone up if you managed to down it in one go? If you finish it all, everyone will be shocked! And if you let out a huge burp at the end, it might get a big laugh.

If you’re good with carbonation, you could even try a super-carbonated drink.

Just remember, some people really dislike burps, and forcing yourself to chug when you can’t is a no-go!
