MEGET OFF TOPIC :
Var til en fødselsdag i weekend og snakken faldt på magi osv..
Der var så en gut der påstod at man 4 personer hvor hver holdt henholdvis 2 fingre under hver af mine skuldre og 2 fingre under hvert af mine knæ,
De prøvede så at løfte mig men virkede ikke. Derefter samlede de hænderne over mit hoved og prøvede igen, hvor jeg med lethed blev løftet ca. 1,5 meter op i luften ??
WTF
Prøvede selv at løfte også og det virkede sgu??
Nogen der ved hvad det går ud på ?
Magi ? løfte menneske med 2 fingre!
Kan ikke helt få følgende del af din tekst til at give mening:
"Derefter samlede de hænderne over mit hoved og prøvede igen"
Huh?
enig med kspr :)
Har selv prøvet det samme..... megaunderligt, men jo det virker!
Har ingen ide om hvad fanden der gør det.....
Efter det første forsøg stabler folk deres hænder oven på hinanden, et kort øjeblik, for derefter at gentage forsøget og vupti nu kan manden løftes unden problemer. Har selv prøvet det og det er ret spooky.
De samlede hænderne over mit hoved. sagde det var for at samle min energi !!!
Den første person havde sin ene hånd ca 5 cm over mit hoved. Derefter lagde person 2 sin hånd sin hånd 5 cm fra persons 1´s hånd og det gjorde alle 4. De holdt hænderne over mit hoved i 30 sek og fjernede hænderne en person af gangen .
Bagefter løftede de mig...
Lol bed dem om at videofilme det. Så får vi vist LIGE lidt bedre syn for sagen.
En eller anden forklaring er der jo på det.
Smiler - imponerende som alt igen vækkes til live. Lavede selv den samme "leg" i mine unge dage - præcis med samme overraskelse som ses nu. Sjovt at se, at den stadig kan vække glæde her 20 år efter.
Og vi havde heller ej forklaring på hvordan det kunne lade sig gøre dengang. Men forundeligt - det er det.

Det er et meget gammelt trick og et eksempel på at man kan mere end man tror når man er fokuseret. Det med at synge og/eller holder hænderne over hovedet kan erstattes med mange andre fokuseringsøvelser. Det er lidt ligesom at slå brædder over - hvilket alle kan, men ikke altid første gang.
Jeg tror nu ikke det er rigtigt at det at holde hænderne over hovedet kan erstattes med andre øvelser. Effekten kommer af at musklerne strækkes og man derved får en automatisk bevægelse i den retning. Ligesom når man står i en døråbning og presser armene op mod karmen.
Jeg har også prøvet det. Netop med at holde hænderne over hinanden. Da jeg prøvede, måtte hænderne ikke røre hinanden. Aner ikke om det var for at booste historien, at dem der kendte til tricket sagde sådan, men det virkede sq :)
@nothing878
Ja, det er netop det at man spænder musklerne i koncentrationen om ikke at røre hinanden der gør det.
Det er jo ikke andet end 10kg per finger.
Georg Olsen kan klare 200kg i en finger.
meget simpel forklaring - i andet forsøg er man meget mere fokuseret og man løfter samlet. Første gang er det ukoordineret og man løfter ikke på en gang.
Fin lille leg til at understrege styrken i samarbejde (eller magi, hvis folk ikke forstår noget?) =)

"Men jeg kan stadig nakke dig i /12; tolv :-)"
Nu har jeg efterhånden set det der "/12;" ret mange steder - hvad i alverden skal det betyde? :D
Light as a feather, stiff as a board, sometimes known as party levitation, is a game played by children at slumber parties.[1] The phrase has also become established in popular culture as a reference to a levitation trick, and has been referred to in various media accounts.

[edit] Description of gameOne participant lies flat on the floor, and then the others space themselves around him or her, each placing one or two fingertips underneath the participants body. The person closest to the head commonly begins by saying "She's looking ill", which the others repeat; then "she's looking worse" is spoken and repeated back. The general direction of the call-and-repeat describes how the prone person is looking worse and worse, followed by saying "she is dying," and, finally, "she is dead."
Variations of the spoken part of the game occur, with a common modern version the person being lifted is told a story about their death and asked to imagine it happening to him or her. It serves the dual purpose of "freaking out" the participants and convinces the participants that it will be easier to lift this person. All versions end with the phrase "light as a feather, stiff as a board" chanted by the entire group (save for the prone person, who pretends to be dead) as they attempt to lift their companion's body using only their fingertips. Some versions omit the story entirely and only the "light as a feather..." chant is used. Allegedly, after these repetitions, the person being lifted will seem lighter or even entirely weightless.
Another variation of the game takes place with one person seated in a chair. Four volunteers agree to stand around the sitter, two on the sitter's left side and the other two on his/her right. Each of the four places two fingers under each corner of the chair's seat and the four together will attempt to lift chair and sitter, which generally fails. The volunteers will then perform some small ritual, usually involving rubbing their hands together or circling the chair in various direction (counter-clockwise, walking backwards, etc.) After this ritual, the volunteer hold their hands over the sitter's head to "transfer" energy into the sitter which will presumably make him/her weightless. The lifters then retry lifting the sitter the same way as before.
[edit] Explanations of the PhenomenonIn many versions, each of the (in the example) five people lifting the other person uses only one or two of his or her fingers on each hand to do the lifting. It is particularly easy to lift a heavy weight when it is evenly distributed amongst a group of four people. The phenomenon of the weight seeming less on the second try around or after some sort of ritual is due to increased focus and the "lifters" being more in sync with one another.[2]
One of the best rational explanations for such reports is that the participants are tricking their minds, by way of the chanting, into believing that the person being lifted is "light as a feather". The body still reacts to the command from the brain, but the mind perceives it differently. Simply put, five (example) people can easily lift one person, especially when those five people are tricking their minds into thinking that the person is light-weight.[dubious – discuss]
Another reason for the apparent success of the levitation is the "self-fulfilling prophecy" concept. The lifters "know" a human being is too heavy to lift with a fingertip, so subconsciously, they may not exert enough effort on the first attempt. After the "ritual," the participants may believe that the body is now supposed to move, or that the ritual itself has given them power, and therefore they exert enough effort to raise the participant off the ground.
[edit] HistoryThe game could be seen played in 17th century London during the plague outbreak. Samuel Pepys, a naval administrator noted this being performed as a sort of ward against the disease. In his conversation with his friend Mr. Brisband on July 31, 1665, Pepys reported, "He saw four little girles, very young ones, all kneeling, each of them, upon one knee; and one begun the first line, whispering in the ear of the next, and the second to the third, and the third to the fourth, and she to the first. Then the first begun the second line, and so round quite through, and putting each one finger only to a boy that lay flat upon his back on the ground, as if he was dead; at the end of the words, they did with their four fingers raise this boy high as they could reach, and he [Mr. Brisband] being there, and wondering at it, as also being afeared to see it, for they would have had him to have bore a part in saying the words, in the roome of one of the little girles that was so young that they could hardly make her learn to repeat the words, did, for feare there might be some sleight used in it by the boy, or that the boy might be light, call the cook of the house, a very lusty fellow, as Sir G. Carteret's cook, who is very big, and they did raise him in just the same manner."[3] Pepys also spoke of the chant that accompanied this performance.
Voici un corps mort
Royde comme un Baston,
Froid comme Marbre
Leger comme un esprit,
Levons te au nom de Jesus Christ
(Here is a dead body
Stiff as a stick,
Cold as marble
Light as a spirit,
Lift yourself, in the name of Jesus Christ!)[citation needed]
The phenomenon has been observed into modern times, often being decried as a form of spiritualism or seance and considered anathema by some religious groups. It is widely considered a simple spooky party game along the lines of Bloody Mary and the telling of ghost stories.
