10 common magic tricks revealed – the principles are actually quite simple.
Magicians conjure animals from hats, which are usually hidden next to a table or in a clothing pocket. The key is not the principle behind it, but the magician's skillful technique that makes it impossible for the audience to tell that the object was taken from the side.
The magic tricks that make the character levitate in the air are all done by using thin steel wires or ropes as traction, and by using a dark background so that the ropes are almost invisible.
The key to the "floating on water" magic trick is that the glass or plastic plate hidden under the water's surface cannot be seen. This is why these performances are usually carried out in relatively murky rivers or swimming pools with colored bottoms.
The truck runs over the magician's magic trick. By placing enough counterweight at the back of the truck, it appears as if the truck is full of goods when the door is opened. By using the weight of the goods and the principle of leverage, the front wheels of the truck bed are not under any weight, so the magician can be safely "run over" by these wheels.
The magic trick of passing a coin through a pencil, which is broken and held together by a magnet in the middle.
The magic trick of making a person disappear is actually performed in a larger space than it appears, enough to accommodate an actor.
Another type of magic trick involves the transformation of a person into a living being, which requires the cooperation of two actors.
The missing cup was actually hidden in a recess on the table.
The actors performing "levitation" are all supported by frames underneath them.
"Levitation," a long-standing scam.
