How to Hypnotize a Chicken!

Image
Rest assured that no chicken is hurt during this, not even its dignity is shaken (unless you can ask it to run around like a human when it is in the trance.) This is one of several ways to lull a chicken into a stupor - just make sure you are gentle and quite! 1. Place the chicken on the table, laying it on its side with one wing under its body.Hold it down gently with its head flat on the surface. 2. With one finger from your free hand repeatedly trace a straight line, about 30cm (1ft) long, in front of the birds eyes - outwards from its beak - tip and along the table. Alternatively, take a piece of chalk (a color that contrast with the surface) and draw a 30 cm (1ft) line from the beak - tip out front of the bird. Hold the chicken still for a bit as it stare ahead along the line. Soon it will be in hypnotic trance. How long it remains in that trance varies from seconds to hours but sudden movement or noise will bring the bird to and with a squawk of surprise it'll be up and off...

BMX How To: Manual

Image
Steps How to Manual * 1 Start pedaling to get to a moderately fast speed. Stand up on the bike and lean slightly over the handlebars with your elbows slightly bent. * 2 Pull up and back on the handlebars as you allow your hips to drop. Keep your upper body as close to straight up as possible in order to maintain balance as you enter into the manual. Try to get your front wheel between 6 inches and one foot off the ground. * 3 Hop up onto the object by squeezing your legs together against the bike and doing a small jump. Keep your weight far enough back on the bike to keep yourself in the manual. Look straight ahead at the end of the object you're trying to bunny hop-manual onto. * 4 Land on the back wheel and then either continue to manual or allow the front wheel to come back down so you can continue to pedal. So try it now!
