Four amazing physics demonstrations are revealed in this article. Thisone reminds me of the cold reading article. You have this idea of howcool or great something is then after you find out how its done, itjust diminishes the excitment for you. Having never taking a physicsclass, some of the concepts were still not clear to me after reading.However, for the most part it seems to make sense. The bed of nailstrick was the most intriguing for me. Of course, this trick is donecarefully with certain types of nails and making sure weight is evenlydistributed. I did find it interesting though, that the person couldstill get hurt if the person hitting the hammer swings a little toohard. That is still a risky chance to take, depending on someone elseto hit it just right.
I assume the point of the article was to get you to realize that thereis a logical answer to everything. There aren't any "magic" tricksand things can just seem mystical when you dont know what's going on.This article encourges you to not be fooled and to find out as much asyou can then critically consider the information. This keeps us frombeing fooled into something easily avoided.
