Bendable Spoon

Needed: Shiny Nickel(or five pence), Shiny Teaspoon.

Setup: You should be sitting at a table with everyone facing you. And you should practice this trick a few times to make it look natural.

1. Take a nickel and put it with your thumb against the inside of your index finger. Don't let anyone see the nickel, pull it a little bit below. ( Right Hand)

2. Take the spoon with the other hand and say that you can bend a metal spoon. Grab the spoon with both hands, the right hand (that holds the nickel) on top of your left hand (that holding the spoon). Only the pinky of your left hand should be wrapped around the spoon's handle. The bowl of the spoon should be resting on the the table and your hands should overlap otherwise it will make the spoon look too long.

3. As you are doing this push the nickel a bit upward, so the shiny rim showsover your index finger. This will now look like the end of the spoon handle to the audience. Act like you are using a lot of strength to bend this spoon.

4. as your bend forward, let the spoon handle come towards you. Let it slip out of your hands while your hands bend forward away from you. The spoon's bowl will flatten onto the table while the "handle" of the spoon (the shiny nickel in your fingers) bends "towards" the audience

5. When you are done, drop you right hand onto your lap and toss the spoon with your left hand onto the table at the table at the same time.
