The Office Jello Prank has been around. It has been forgotten, or even unheard of to some, until the show “The Office” brought it back in one of its episodes.

Here are some successful and rather interesting results:

A Speaker of a Phone in Jello The Entire Phone in Jello and a Taunting Note A Stapler in Jello - Classic A Keyboard and a Mouse in Jello

Here is a guide:

Tools:

5 boxes of Jello
1 Container
1 object (a stapler, a phone, a pen etc - anything without paper content, obviously)
a few pieces of string
a ruler that is longer or wider that the container

1. Tie a string around the object you want to “trapped” inside the jello and hang it onto the ruler like so. Make sure there is space between the ruler and the object.

2. place the object into the container. At this point the object should neither be touching the bottom and the side of the container nor the surface of the ruler. The object should only have contact with the string.

The above the steps is the heart of the trick and is use to achieve the “anti-gravity” effect inside the jello.

This rest of the trick is fairly simple.

3. Cook up the Jello gelatin and fill the container until the object is submerged.

4. put the container into the fridge until the is solidified.

5. cut of the strong tied around the object and remove it along with the ruler.

6. Flip the container and start shaking until the jello(and the object) is removed from. Use a plastic spatular if needed.

And voila! Pretty, isn’t it?■

swiss-army-flash

Victorinox, makers of the original Swiss Army knife, are trying to keep up with the times with its new “Presentation Pro” utility knife. The new Presentation Pro from Victorinox adds tech to the traditional blades and scissors of the Swiss Army knife, with tucked away with insane precision a removable 32GB USB Flash drive with fingerprint authentication, laser pointer, and Bluetooth remote control for your Windows-only PC or laptop presentations. Yep, key ring and scissors too.The range includes a de-clawed “flight” model that has no pointy bits making it suitable for hand luggage.

Relatively few of us actually need a folding pocket knife with 32GB USB flash drive, laser pointer, biometric security and bluetooth powerpoint controller but you know you want one anyway. Even if you never use powerpoint.

watch

For the wanna be James Bonds, this very classy USB flash drive fits completely inside of the watch!

Since you are probably the clever type, we suspect you could easily find many places to hide a small USB flash drive. Some of these hiding spots may be perfectly legit, but others might just be too clever for your own good. So, to protect you from yourself we’d like to introduce a watch with the ideal hiding spot already built-in. This watch features an ample 4GB capacity USB flash drive that slips neatly into the watch case. Simply remove, add data and then re-insert and you’re ready to conduct secret missions to building B on the other side of campus.

Staplesless Stapler

You place a stapler over a pile of paper that needs to be stapled, and as soon as you press on the stapler, nothing comes out. While you were expecting to organize your document, you have to abort your plan because you just ran out of staples.

Introducing the Stapler that does not use staples. This invention has been around a quite sometime, but not a lot of people understand the magic behind this.

There a few models of stapleless staplers out in the market nowadays, but this model in particular punches a whole onto your stack of paper, it then folds and,unlike most models out there, nicely tucks the flap into the paper itself. Smart, huh? Although the trick is pretty nifty, it works only on a stack of 5 to 7 pieces of paper, but again, if you have a stack of uncountable amount of paper that you want to bind together, you might as well use a 3-ring binder or use a hot glue to make a book out of it, right? ■
