🔴 WE ARE LIVE! (Office Hours Day #235) While you wait for today’s deep dive, check out the new episode where Brian and Josh uncover the hidden world of shortwave radio: youtube.com/watch?v=fPf3kj_dAsc
WATCH THE ORIGINAL SCAM SCHOOL EPISODE HERE: #130 LAUNCH an Olive at the Bar! âž” youtube.com/watch?v=mdHPMFtrXNw
THE HOOK:
How do you reliably launch a tiny bar olive through the air and sink it perfectly into a glass, using nothing but physics and a little misdirection? Today on Scam School School, we’re heading back to 2010 for Episode 130 to declassify "LAUNCH an Olive at the Bar!"
We’re breaking down the mechanics of fulcrums, kinetic energy transfer, and the theatrical delivery of a perfect physical stunt. It’s a masterclass in exploiting environmental tools—the exact same conceptual framework we use in #wolfmasking to leverage the physical or digital constraints of a system to achieve a result that looks like magic, but is entirely rooted in predictable mechanics.
