If doing street magic is appealing to, then you've come to the right place. This is a classic trick that never ceases to amaze people. You only need a little bit of set up and practice, and then you'll be ready to approach complete strangers and within a few seconds create an impression that will last a lifetime.
Here's how it will seem to your crowd. You approach someone, reveal that you are studying some street magic, and you would like their interest for a few seconds. Most everybody will commonly concur to experiencing some street magic, so you'll have no troubles getting them to say yes. You start to launch into a trick, maybe pulling out a deck of cards, but then you begin to sneeze. You pretend your neck is hurting while you sneeze a few more times. And then your head suddenly drops down to the middle of your torso. You say something like "Oh, my," and then draw your head back again to your shoulders. You pleasantly excuse yourself, and wander away. Needless to say, your audience will be stunned beyond belief.
Here's the technique. You'll require to get two shirts of identical material and color to set this up. One shirt under, and one shirt over. On the shirt which is over, you'll need to slice a "V" shape about halfway down to the chest. You'll also need to put on a darkish jacket over both shirts. After that, find a strong coat hanger, and put it between your shirts, and under your jacket.
As you begin sneezing, and whining about your painful neck, reach back like you are massaging your neck. As soon as you sneeze really hard, take hold of the coat hanger, and pull up, and at the same moment lower your head. This will give the effect that your head has in some manner fallen off your shoulders, and is right now in the center of your chest. Grab your forehead with the hand that is not holding the coat hanger, and gradually push your head back up to your shoulders.
The secret to this strategy is to do this quickly, both lifting the jacket and the cut shirt up, as well as returning everything back to normal. Especially if you set this up by saying you are going to do some kind of mind reading trick, nobody will be paying any attention to your shirt and jacket. This will occur so fast, they will really remember it as if your head actually fell down to your chest.
The reason this works so well is that people today almost never pay attention to things they aren't "supposed" to. Many scientific studies on social sciences bear this out. All you need to do to execute this trick effectively is to set it up as some kind of mind reading trick, do a good job of acting that your neck is hurt, and quickly say sorry, and excuse yourself once you've "returned" your head. They will be taken absolutely off guard, and you'll produce a ton of laughter and amazement with this trick. Have fun.
