Spoon and fork joined together on a match and glass seems to levitate against all laws of physics. Something is strange going there but we cannot explain what..

you numscull. that is science. the toothpick is holding the fork and spoon. but the fork and spoon are compensating by the handles balancing in the middle of the glass. anyone can do this.
actually the reason it stays up has less to do with perfect balance and more to do with the fact that the toothpick is wedged between to prongs of the fork. the balance helps make it look level, but that's the real reason it stays up, i hope that description makes sense, but if you try it yourself you'll see what im saying, the wood is wedged in the prongs of the fork.
ok first of all, to the people saying its being held up, at 0:25, yo have a shot of the full setup, and no one is hilding it. the spoon and fork are put together like this. the middle 2 prongs are underneath the bowl of the spoon while the other 2 are above it, this causes it fork to hold the spoon. then the match is inserted into the space between the 3rd and 4th prong, from your right. then balanceing it on a thin surface, like that glass edge, the center of gravity restabalizes itself aroun the glass, and it balances. its not that hard.
well, i really believe that , the video is 100% facts, theres no camera tricks, we have alraedy try that in our projject, in physics, and its really true, so, if you don't believe . you better try it !
It doesn't need photoshop or any other camera trickery to work.
