TRICK EFFECT & ROUTINE: A magician sits down in a chair and puts a sheet
over him. Suddenly, he rises one foot in the air. Shoes, everything comes of the
METHOD: The secret to this is very devious and requires lots of practice to
prefect it. What is vital is that the sheet is not see through.
Before the start of the trick, make sure that your shoes are on your feet loosely,
Once you stand over the chair, throw the sheet over you and the chair. When
ready to sit down, slip off your shoes and place your feet behind your shoes so
Now comes the tricky part. Ok think about this when you want to pick up you're
pair of shoes at them same time you hold them at the double-line formed above
the laces when the shoes are placed together. Use your big toe and your second
toe of your right foot and hold your shoes with these toes.
Put your weaker hand over the left leg so that that hand 'blends' in the left leg.
While doing this, put your stronger hand (right in this case) behind your back so
that it rests on the seat of the chair and raises the hand which blends in with you
foot so that it is always in line with the other foot. The foot, which is holding the
shoes should rise and hence the shoes will also rise.
The foot, which the hand blended in with, this is on the ground also helping you
push up. This foot is hidden though by the shoes and the sheet somewhat.
