Cruise Pranks, Volume 4: The Butter Trick

This is a prank best played on unsuspecting (and even on suspecting) teenagers. I speak from experience.

Well, maybe it is a trick best played on unsuspecting anyones. Yes, that's more like it.

Needed:

-Pad of butter, prefferably the kind that come with little slips of paper on two sides, found commonly in restaurants or Cruise Ship Buffets.

-Salt shaker containing (what else?) salt.

-Unsuspecting someone.


Scene: a group of Youth Counselors sit and eat dinner together. A bunch of the teenagers they run activities for during the day/evening decide to crash the youth counselors' dinner.

Youth Counselor Sarah decides to do something about it. She says to the kid sitting across from her:

"Hey, did you know that when you put salt on butter it gives off a heat reaction?"

Kid "Uh... no."

Sarah, wide-eyed "It does!" She's unwrapped the pad of butter and salted it. She waves her hand over the pad of butter and says: "Yup, it started. Heat."

The kid eyes her with disbelief, then waves his hand over the butter too.

That's where he went wrong. Sarah, ready for him, slaps his hand down directly into the butter.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the butter trick.
