The tablecloth pull revisited

  • Abstract A very old and well-known magical trick is the so-called tablecloth pull. A table is covered with a tablecloth, on top of which are certain objects. The task is to remove the tablecloth while the objects—which must not be touched—stay on top of the table. This article describes the physics behind the experiment, and presents examples recorded with high-speed cameras.
