Hi, everyone! Today I am going to teach you how to do the scarf thru the neck illusion. First step, I am going to show you how it looks like. You get a regular scarf around at your neck, okay, and you just take and bring it around just like so and that is the fun part one, two, three right through on my neck. You see my neck is still at one piece, pretty cool illusion.
Now, I am going to teach you how to do it. You are going to need a regular scarf this is about five feet long, okay. And all you do is put it around into your neck just like so and there are a few magic moves that you need to know. First of all it is important that the right side over here is about 12 inches longer than the left side, okay. So, if you look carefully, you will see that this side is longer than this side.
Now, you are going to take you hands and cross just like those. So, the left hand will grab this side and the right hand will come under here and grab this piece. Now, you are going to do this move kind a quick as you coming up this piece comes across and creates like a little triangle, okay. And once you are in this position, you are going to keep bringing this up but leaving like a little slack right there, okay. So, I am going to come up around my head just like so with my little slipknot right there, and then when you pull, it looks like its going through your neck.
So, one more time, now we put this around your neck, you let this side hang about 12 inches lower. Take your hands, grab this side right here , take your right hand and grab the bottom of the other piece, and then quickly you are bring the left hand across. You pull it across the handkerchief for us to take the scarf just a little bit you create some slack. Okay, you can see it just a little hole there. This is going to come up like this. So, you keep holding this piece and as your coming up, that create you are slipknot, so that when you come like this. It looks like its going right through your neck.
This is the great illusion that you can do. Practice this in front of the mirror few times obviously before you go out and try it. And another if you want to practice obviously because if you do not do it right with the slipknot, you are going to be chocking yourself. So, make sure you will get the slipknot and once you get it down, and you hide the slipknot with the scarf coming down and you pull it. It look like a real magic. So, give it a try have some fun and meet some people.
