The video I have attached ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJOTKo5wOaE) demonstrates the effect - this veryfying the information.

Why is this proposed for deletion? I've seen this trick a dozen times. Czolgolz 18:48, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Method

I found this in the page history:

The trick consist in a mirror in V form, the Rolled clothing must be clamped by the assistant. The whole is proved by the fact that one sometimes sees that some fingers are reflected, if the cameraman more exactly films the Roll. The head turner is light to understand: The assistant must turn back the head about approx. 180 degrees, while the opening is behind. In a variation also is behind an opening, so that one sees the hair of the assistant. If one exactly looks before the hair of the lady, one sees light that it is a wig which is on a part which closes to castes just, nevertheless, behind.

It's unclear to the point of being unusable, and of course it's uncited, but I'm concerned that we may be removing method descriptions purely on exposure grounds. Bovlb (talk) 09:37, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
