GUESS THE SECRET OBJECT ------------------------- For this trick, again you will need a stooge who is also involved in the trick. In a similar vain to the number guess on the previous page, you are going to go out of the room while a group of your friends pick any object from within the room. When you go back in the room,your friend is going to say, "Is it the (table )?" "Is it the (horse ornament )?" "Is it the ...whatever?" Your friend will keep asking you is it this or is it that, and you keep saying no. When he/she asks "is it the ( chosen item ), you are going to say, " yes it is!" How? Arrange with your friend beforehand never point to an object that is black. Before he/she is going to ask you if it is the chosen object, they should point to something black and ask "Is it the (whatever is black )?" THEN he/she points to the chosen object. You will always know that it is the object directly after something black. You can do this trick many times and indeed you may have to, because your friends will be suspicious that you have worked it out with the friend that the 12th object is the chosen one or the 5th and so on. Each time, change the number of items you are asked before the chosen one. Little will they suspect it is something to do with colour. If the people choose an object that is black, then your stooge will have to come up with some clever patter to manipulate them to choose something else. EG: " Naw, that's too obvious ( or easy )."
