Blackstone

Go on from there, Rhoda.

That's it, and another to the left.

And one to the left.

Looks more like a centipede to me.

But what about the seventh match?

I place the last match across the six that extend left and right.

Then I delicately pick up the bottom match from the table and lift slowly and carefully.

Seven matches lifted by one match.

Box, don't leave me to tell you.

You've got a great little device there.

I admit it, Alan.

I admit it.

But now you know how to do it.

And our listeners know how to do it.

And when they get out their matchboxes to try it, the results should be perfect.

I hope you like that trick, ladies and gentlemen.

And until next time, this is Blackstone saying good magic and goodbye.

Be with us next time when the world's greatest living magician, Blackstone, tells us the story of the ghost in the crypt and explains more tricks that you yourself can perform.

Listen in again to Blackstone, the world's greatest living magician.

The Magic Detective, starring the world's greatest magician, Blackstone.
