With One Hand
- Place an egg in the palm of your hand.
- Close your hand so that your fingers are completely wrapped
around the egg.
- Squeeze the egg by applying even pressure all around the
shell.
- Look at everyone's amazement (mostly your own) as the egg
remains whole and your hand remains dry!
With Two Hands
- Lace your fingers together.
- Place the egg lengthwise between your palms.
- Squeeze your palms together as hard as you can on the points of
the egg.
Do not attempt this experiment near carpet, curtains, or any
other hard-to-clean item. If this experiment fails, egg yolk will
fly in all directions.
Don't try this in the store before you buy the egg. The
storekeeper will not be amused.
