Take a salt shaker (one with a whole in the center) take the top off and put a toothpick in it and screw the top back on. Then find a fork and spoon that are about the same wieght, put the spoon in the fork on the outside points, put a toothpick through the middle of the fork, and place the two points togetherand let go, (if you can balance the fork and spoon with the toothpick in mid air , you can put it on the point of the toothpick) You can spin it too if you do it right and keep it level.

When I do this one, I put the spoon and fork together then stick the toothpick through the center tines of the fork. I then balance the toothpick on the edge of a pint glass. This alone looks cool but I don't stop there. I then burn the tips of the toothpick. It'll stop burning by itself when the flame reaches the glass or the silverware. It really looks as if the silverware is defying gravity. No explanation could do it justice so I'll add pictures soon. Feel free to send me some pictures if you know how to do this and have a little spare time.
