第一步:魔术展示
Today I will show you a trick called the jumping match. The only thing you will need is two matches. Now watch closely. I gently hold a match like this and place the other one on top, by using the power of thought I shall try to make the top match jump. This part needs a high degree of concentration so bear with me while I concentrate. Wow! did you see that! Let's see that one more time.
今天,我将向你展示跳跃火柴的魔术。你唯一需要的是两根火柴。现在密切注意。我轻轻地举着一根,而另一根在上面,我使用念力,我将努力使上面的火柴跳跃。这部分需要高度的集中,所以我集中精神时请宽恕我。哇!你是否看到!让我们再看一遍。
Step 2: Audience Participation
第二步:观众参与
Now is the perfect time to let your spectators try, but of course, there is more to this trick than the power of thought. So unless someone watching knows the trick or is capable of doing it, they won't be able to repeat it. I will now show you how to perform the trick.
现在是让你的观众参与尝试的最佳时机 ,但是,当然相比念力,这个把戏还有更多。因此,除非有人了解这个魔术或者有能力这样做,他们不会重蹈覆辙。我将向你揭秘这个魔术。
Step 3: Magic Trick Explained
第三步:魔术揭秘
The reason for holding the bottom match like this is that I am pressing the match hard against my nail. This will cause direct friction. I now press up on the bottom match making it move in small invisible jerks this will transfer to the top match making it jump and that was the jumping match revealed.
拿着火柴底部的原因是我用指甲在按压火柴。这将导致直接摩擦。我现在底部的火柴使得它产生无形的摇晃,从而转移到顶部的火柴,因而呈现火柴的跳跃。
