Penguin Magic - Mercuring (by Jay Sankey)

The penetration looks CRAZY and the re-set is automatic! Whether you work the street or the tables, this one's for you!
The Effect
The wonder-worker introduces a finger ring. Claiming it's made from "stabilized mercury" the performer hands out the ring for examination. A moment later, the magician flicks the ring spinning into the air and then impossibly catches it on the very TIP of his finger! The ring is then slowly slipped onto the performer's third finger. The spectators are asked to watch very closely. Without a single suspicious move, the mysterious ring is seen to MELT RIGHT THROUGH the base of the third finger and onto the base of the pinky! And again the ring can be examined.
Finally, the ring is slipped onto a SPECTATOR'S finger! For maximum security, the spectator tightly holds the tip of his/her finger, but a second later the magician pulls the ring right through the finger!
