Acrobatic Clips

This is the easiest trick that I know so we’ll start here. For this trick you’ll need two paperclips and a bill.

Effect: You have a dollar bill that is clipped to it by 2 paperclips. You say that the two paperclips are actually acrobats and will do two back flips in the air then join together. To prove it you snap on the dollar bill pulling it, and the paperclips shoot up into the air and join together.

Method: Fold up your bill as in the picture and attach the paperclips. You can do this in front of your audience or prepare it in advance. At the right moment, all you have to do is pull the bill in opposite directions. The paperclips will automatically clip themselves together!
