A beautiful square Chest with a lid is resting on your table.
The Chest looks like it belongs in your home up on a shelf with treasured collectibles.
Have a spectator (no stooges) join you for a Light & Heavy experiment.
Set the Light & Heavy Chest on the floor or table and opening the lid & drop a silk inside.
You explain that some things appear to be light in weight, but are actually heavy!
Now invite the spectator to lift the Chest and the spectator can NOT lift the Chest at all, its just too heavy!
Now you open the lid & remove the silk, the spectator can NOW lift the Chest!
