For science buffs and non-believers alike, Mike Offutt has some incredibly unusual, and seemingly magical, tricks up his sleeve. What’s truly amazing, though, is that all of his “tricks” are actual scientific phenomena from the natural world. Mike Offutt’s Ultimate Science Show includes such demonstrations as the amazing egg in the bottle, the air pressure whip and the electric pickle, introducing young minds to the fun of scientific exploration. (And it’s unbelievable what he can do with toilet paper and a hair dryer!) Obviously, he’s doing something right, because for two seasons straight at BlackRock, Offutt has played to standing-room-only, hootin’ and hollerin’ crowds of kids and adults alike. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself scratching your head and laughing out loud at the mysterious and astounding world of science.
