The Trick:
A napkin is placed on the table , then a toothpick is put on top and in the center of the napkin . Then you fold the napkin so that the toothpick is inside the folded napkin , the spectator is asked to break the toothpick inside the folded napkin , remember the spectator breaks the toothpick himself . As well as this , everyone can double check it and even hear the sound of it breaking . Then you can make some magical gesture over the folded napkin and tooth pick . Then the spectator unfolds the napkin and everyone can see that the toothpick has restored.
You will need:
Fabric napkin with seams on the sides . 2 toothpicks
Preparation / The Sneaky Bit:
Before this trick , insert 1 toothpick into the one of the seam on either side of the napkin. This toothpick is the one which is going to be broken . Then the trick is ready to be performed .
Doing The Trick:
Show the audience a napkin on both sides then lay it on the table or bar . You must remember on which side the seam with hidden toothpick is . Then take out a toothpick from its box and place it on top of the napkin .
Then fold the napkin by bringing all 4 corners over the toothpick to the opposite side, remembering where the last position of the seam with hidden toothpick is . After the napkin is folded , grab the seam with the hidden toothpick and ask a spectator to break the hidden toothpick , after that you can let another spectator check the broken hidden toothpick without opening the folded napkin . You should always hold the napkin to make sure spectators don't do something that can mess the trick . Then you make a magical gesture over the napkin then put it back on the table , then unfold the napkin and find that the toothpick is restored.
