Party Trick - Suggestions for new year
Discussion
Mrs Tack and I have organised a new year party at Cassa Tack.
She has suggested we all come prepared with a party trick.
My only viable trick is the Bishop esk knife game from the Aliens film. I'm fairly well versed in the art of it but I've been told i'm not allowed to do this particular trick as the last time resulted in heavy damage to our table..
So, PH, i need a trick, something i can learn quick and be able to undertake whilst drunk...

Do this off a door frame:
That's my advanced party trick.
You could also balance a coin on your elbow in front of you then drop the elbow and catch the coin with the same hand. Bonus points for:
1) a stack of coins
2) an iPhone 6 without a protective case
3) a tennis racket
(Yes, I can and have.)
Oh: https://youtu.be/r5yUncR_2aA
Another:
Place iPhone 6 without a protective case with one end off a table. Knock the iPhone into the air with the back of the fingertips of your right hand and catch the phone in the air with your right hand. Bonus points for doing it all in one swift movement so it looks like you grab it as soon as the back of your fingers touch the phone and it leaves the table.

One more:
Open palm placed at your hip, elbow bent behind you (like you're going to do a karate punch from the hip), lit tealight (or your now smashed iPhone 6) on the flat palm of your hand. Turn your hand under your armpit and push out behind you, arm straight, palm facing the ceiling. Swing your hand/arm outwards and round to the front then over your head (you can now bend the elbow) and return to the start position without setting yourself on fire (or further destroying your iPhone 6).
Ooh, another I've been experimenting with. You know how you can spin a pen round your thumb? https://youtu.be/loZgDadZjzA Do it with a large kitchen knife.
You can also spin a knife round your finger vertically if the knife has a nice balance to it.

Magic Can Restore and Refill - this is very good and easy to do.

I like the stab in the eye trick.

The one I saw was with one of those triangular milk sachets but red sauce is good too.

How good's your mental arithmetic?
