The easiest episode for you

Posted by rpcaldeira on 01/06/2009 at 12:25:20 pm in Scam School

Hi guys I'm new into this forum, my name is Rui, I'm from Portugal and I'm 17 yo.

And my way to start to get to meet you guys is by asking what scam is the easiest for you to preform.

The easiest for me are "The Human Chimney" (Setting aside the health issues), and "For the ladies part.2" ( if I'm drunk enough)

See you all later

Brian, Can you reveal how you break a cinderblock on your head on Scam School

"

Oh, you took physics with Mr Mochel, too? :) I remember after he did the bed of nails bit, he stood up, complained that it was hot, and took off his sweater. Underneath, he was wearing a t-shirt with a grid of red dots on it that he had prepped the night before. What a chucklehead.

Episode 42 - How to Rip a Phonebook in Half! [Discussion]

Well, it lacks subtlety, but it's pretty easy to pull off a scam.

Step 1: "Betcha I can tear that phone book in half"

Step 2: "Betcha you can't"

Step 3: Profit

Happy New Years Eve Scam School!!!!

Hmm, this one's pretty cheesy, but the concept is interesting, wonder how brian might use it for another online trick like the poem mind reading scam?

Topic suggestions for live call-in practice sessions

Posted by Kaydub on 12/31/2008 at 08:37:54 pm in Scam School

I would definitely watch these :). Could you make a separate twitter feed to alert about new live shows? Or does it have some way for you to make a separate category on your current feed? I would add something like this to my Google Reader but the alerts would get lost in all the other posts that I wouldn't generally read.

Edit: How about covering showmanship. Like how to approach people, keep them interested, and getting the maximum amount of free drinks without them getting irritated. Whatever comes out of this could be distilled into a segment of Scam School.

pool table

Posted by Tarsis on 12/30/2008 at 07:55:01 pm in Scam School

a coworker told me a good scam using a pool table and 2 cue sticks you lay the cue sticks on the pool table and you bet the person a beer that you can roll the ball (can be any of the pool balls) under the cue sticks. they think they have a leg up on you because a ball cant roll under the cue sticks. then you roll the ball under the table.

I just wish that they could have left any Scam School reference out of the answer URL's. I don't want to reveal my source for the best tricks in town.... any town....

Question about The Human Chimney

Posted by Minton on 01/01/2009 at 01:37:04 pm in Scam School

I usually light 2 matches to get more smoke, also look for matches that have a white head, for some reason they seem to get more smoke for me
