It is often these special effects (whether its computer-generated imagery, manipulated visual effects or mechanical effects) that make an ordinary story seem amazing and magical. Now you can bring the excitement of special effects to your own home by exploring the science behind thrilling effects that you see in movies, magic shows, circuses, optical illusions, and everyday life!! For example, try and suspend two forks AND a quarter over a bottle—all while balanced on a toothpick!! Or make a car move with the simple power of a magnet!!
