Well after performing this many, many times, during the second bend, I started getting the reply "Hey, you are just tilting the spoon!"
ANyone else get this? I have watched the DVD many times afterwards and am practicing the "believe in the magic," etc but a bit gunshy of the second bend. I also perform the haunted key occasionally, pennys etc. Any help much appreciated cause I love this effect and know I must need to adjust something. SHows are pouring in and I need to make these adjustments before performing it. Candini

I have had it a couple of times in the past "you're tilting the spoon", however when you hand them it and it really is bent they quickly shut the heck up.
I find it happens less now as I first begin slowly, without a bend and ask everyone to concentrate on it and nothing happens at all. Now you do the work on the off beat and slowy go into it. This packs better for my performances anyway. If you really strain in your face and believe in the magic, as someone said, and do what Mr Osterlind says, think of the beam coming from your forehead and bending the spoon. You should act this through with your whole body and not just the one hand or your head. Hope this helps a little, Kind thoughts, Kennedy

Let me add 2 other thoughts here. The first is to think of a sort of "swivel" around the bend. It's hard to explain, but the spoon kind of "rolls over" the pivot point of the bend. The other is to not only tip the spoon forward, but also rotate it slightly at the same time. The combination of movements really make it look like it is bending.
Richard PS Try this. SQUEEZE the handle of the spoon real hard and slide up your right thumb to cause the rest of the spoon to pivot forward. |

Thanks for that Richard, that's somthing I had never though of, funny that as I use a simular method in bending coins.
Any one elese here notice an increasing use of plastic spoons at parties they are invited to? H.W

Thanks! Richard, I knew when you said on the DVD you had spent a lot of time (years) perfecting this, it was more to "just a bend."
Will keep working it.

Dittos, it has the performance and explanation. It is not a one hit pony either, all four of his Mind Mysteries DVDs are killer.
