  • It's not wet, its not scratched, its not tampered with in any way.

    True I don't have a fancy camera that would show a shard flying off, but I'm pretty sure theres not. Its just a technique.

  • its all in the technique you are right, but a magicianess never reveals her tricks haha

  • Well then... for all I know you could have gotten the spaghetti wet at one point. You could have scratched the break point.

    But it looks like you've found some way to avoid producing, or quickly damp out the shock wave which produces the second break.

    Can you do it every time? Are you successful 1 in 5 or something like that? Can you do it with shorter spaghetti?

  • I pretty much can do it everytime. I promise if thats worth anything to you that I haven't faked anything. Will get someone to film me again if it means that much to you. Have I defied the laws of physics?

  • I don't think your spaghetti is very fresh.

  • straight out the packet

see all

  • it looked like a wet break...

  • You didn't put the pressure on the middle of the spaghetti. That's why. I didn't try breaking a spaghetti yet but I predict it's because of the elasticity of it. It might be wrong though, I'd need to do an experiment and find out the exact numbers of the length of each piece in function of the angle of the spaghetti breaking (which point you put most pressure on)

  • In my tests I often found a short piece just a few cm long snapped out from the break point. It's hard to tell from your video if you retained the entire length. Can you do it again and show a length comparison before and after the break?

    It looked like there was some clever breaking technique. Can you explain what she's doing?
