A Viking original that fools the pants off those that know the old method. A small aluminum bottle is shown along with a steel ball. The ball is dropped into the small well in the bottle and then the bottle is turned over, yet the ball will not fall out. The performer shakes the bottle but to no avail. Finally he commands it to drop out and it does so. The spectator can try until his hair turns gray, but he will never get the ball to stay in the bottle. Self-contained; a great mystery and easy to perform.
