Magic stick
Magic Stick, also known as the Helium Stick, is a deceptively simple yet challenging team-building activity. Teams are given a lightweight stick, which they must lower to the ground using only their index fingers. The catch? All participants must maintain contact with the stick at all times. What appears to be an easy task can quickly turn into a humorous and frustrating experience as the stick seems to magically rise instead of fall.
