Matchbox Penetration by Mr. Magic

The magician holds a matchbox anda long needle with a ribbon passing through the eye of the needle. Heholds the matchbox with one hand and draws attention to a small hole inthe center of the face of the box. He passes the needle through thehole and the ribbon is seen clearly on both sides of the matchbox. Thespectator is asked to pull the ribbon out of the box and the magicianasks the spectator if that was amazing.

Of course the spectator didn't find anything interesting or amazingabout that. The magician seems to be disappointed but then suddenlyremembers something. He says that he forgot to tell them that what hehas done is an impossible phenomenon as the entire interior of thematchbox is occupied by a solid brass block. The magician pulls thematchbox drawer open and shows that indeed there is a solid brass block.

The block is dropped into the spectator's hand and it is a heavy, solidbrass block without any holes in it.
