Find a smoker in a pub and wait until
he goes to the loo, usually the person will leave their pack
of smokes on the bar. While the person is at the loo, empty
his pack of smokes.
When he/she returns, tell him/her you want to show them a cool
trick.
Take the victims pack of smokes (the one you emptied earlier)
and place it upright on the bar counter. Explain to the victim
that his pack of smokes is a Warship.
Take a second pack of smokes with at least three smokes left
in the pack, and place it flat on the bar counter, about 15"
away from the "War Ship". Explain to the victim that
this is a submarine with three torpedoes, and a mission to sink
the war ship.
Now ask the victim to guess the distance that the torpedoes
must be shot at, to sink the war ship.
First shot (doesn't matter about the distance feet, mile or
whatever), take one torpedo (smoke from submarine box) and make
as if it shoots out, but it falls drastically short.
Second attempt, the victim will increase his distance, but make
sure this one also falls far short of the war ship.
On the third attempt the victim will give a larger distance
than the first two attempts, as s0on as the victim guessed the
distance, smash his pack of smokes as hard as you can with the
palm of your hand, and say "Congratulations, you are on
target!" and enjoy the astonished look on your victims
face.
Tips:
Some smokers might find this trick offensive
Make the story interesting, e.g. an American submarine is on
a mission to destroy a Soviet Battle ship etc.
