Check out this cool trick!

Even through all the rips, I'd bet every single poster in this thread is going to try it.

Except those who know they are to lame to do it even if they tried.

I tried and failed. I should pay more attention to the video.

to make it more impressive looking, use two toothpicks instead of the quarter and glass. you can get the toothpicks to balance on their tips with the two forks hanging over one end.

as a kid we did a similar trick.

Instead of pushing 2 forks onto a coin, you push a fork & spoon together, then balance them on a toothpick on glass rim in same manner as in video. Then light the long end of the toothpick (the portion over the interior of the glass) on fire. It burns away leaving the utensils balanced on the glass rim on a tiny stub of toothpick.

Review: Barely worth the bandwidth it consumed, and only for the 'I might try that when I'm bored' factor.
