I've cut the end off it twice, but it's still too short

Was that a viral/fix up only I hope the kid was alright!!!  :palm:  Daughter pulled the TV and cabinet over when she was little but thankfully she was so small if flew over her head and she just ducked right under it - mind you the cabinet got her as it just did to that lad!!

Have to  :lol: at that one...! Nice trick, shame about the outcome.

I was wondering where I'd seen the tablecloth trick recently and it was, of course, on the UK TV advert for "income protection". The one below shows that the "reverse tablecloth trick" is, in fact, real and not faked:



Cheers!

That's cool, I've never seen the trick in reverse before, I wonder how much harder it is that way...
