Learn the Kung-Fu Match Trap Scam! (2009x18)

: 29, 2009

From Scam School fan "Cowboy" in the UK, comes the most insidious, diabolical, GENIUS prank Brian has seen since the quarter-on-forehead scam! Brian has loved this one since the moment he first tried it, but be warned: you'll need to pick the right person to pull this one on. Get a box of matches that has striking surfaces on each side. Pull out three matches, and have your victim hold two of them (match-head side down) pinched against each side of the matchbox. Balance the third match across the tops of the two pinched matches. THE CHALLENGE: promise your friend that you'll buy him a beer if he can "karate chop" the balanced match, using just one finger.
