That was cool, haven't had boiled eggs in a while either, so maybe will try this in the future.

He has some other cool videos, like the dry ice and pen tricks.

 

my great grandmother used to do that. i was never able to perfect the technique.

 

Remind me never to eat any of his hard boiled eggs coated with spit!!

Pretty cool trick. But if the shell really doesn't stick, wouldn't it be faster to crack one end, and peel/squeze the rest off?

 

Cool! I will try it next time.

 

I eat hard boiled eggs all the time (body builder). The trick I use is dunking them into ice cold water after boiling. The shell falls right off. Never blown them tho.

 

Will this work with brown eggs?

 

How about salmon eggs?
