The magician drops a heavy steel ball onto the palm of a spectator and this is followed by three smaller ones. A colored glass sphere is then added to the four steel balls on the volunteer's hand. A translucent heat filter and a white pellet described as a concentrated atomic charge is then handed out.

The magician then drops 10 English Pennies onto the spectator's other hand with the request that the spectator count the coins one at a time onto his palm. The spectator is then asked to add the large silver ball and the magician closes his fingers into a fist.

The glass sphere is dropped into the fist from above leaving the volunteer with three remaining silver balls and these too are dropped into the fist to join the others. The heat filter is placed onto the top of the fist and the white pellet is placed thereon. The volunteer is told to strike a match and then blow out the flame, the magician touches the white pellet with the burned end of the match and it instantly erupts and relights the match!

The volunteer then picks up the heat filter and is asked to describe the different objects inside the magician's fist apart from the halves. As they are named the magician permits them to fall out through the opening at the bottom of the fist, after these objects are named and fall out he asks, "Do you remember what now remains inside my fist?". The answer from the spectator is "10 English Pennies ", to which he replies "You are wrong." and upon opening his hand it is seen to the complete astonishment of everyone that the coins are missing, his hand is bare!
