Any lady from the audience steps forward to assist and after having demonstrated the sharpness of the blade by having sliced through a piece of potato etc., the lady is invited to place her wrist through the centre of the apparatus, a small carrot going through the top and bottom holes immediately above and below the lady’s wrist. Slowly the blade is depressed, chopping through the vegetables and being seen to pass down at the side of the lady’s wrist. Yet the lady is unharmed!
