Setup
Tell everyone you are going to play a little game with them and show them sometime cool.
How to Play
Ask everyone to extend their arms in front of them with their palms facing outwards. Instruct them to cross their right hand over their left hand and lock their fingers together tightly to form a grip. Challenge the players to try and untangle their arms without letting go of their hands. While they're struggling, let go of your own grip and gesture to them how to do it (this is just a distraction while you…). Bring your right hand under your left hand instead of over it. Now it should look like your arms are twisted, but they actually are not. So whenever you are ready, slowly and magically untwist your arms! Watch as the other players try to figure out how you were able to do it.
