The neat tablecloth trick in How the Grinch Stole Christmas
Do you know how to the tablecloth trick? Not many have mastered this high-demand skill, but there’s one person who has accidentally done it for the cameras. That man is none other than the funniest person on the planet, Jim Carrey. If you haven’t seen him do it, re-watch How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
The script originally called for the Grinch to pull the table cloth and make a complete mess. But miraculously, Jim managed to pull the cloth right and without knocking a single piece off. Being the masterful improv actor that he is, he walked right up to the table and pushed everything off the table by hand instead.
