REPTILES and birds are the only creatures known to be capable of laying eggs but a Bulawayo woman proved that even people can.
A city woman, whose identity could not be ascertained, laid an egg during an act by fascinating magician, Sam Sihlahla.
The incident happened on Saturday last week at Egodini vending stalls.
Sihlahla, who is popular for his tricks such as “removing people’s underwear,” swallowing flames, and turning a newspaper into baking flour got to the vendors and performed his tricks.
While at it, he picked one woman from the crowd which had gathered to watch and ordered her to stand in the centre.
B-Metro watched the whole drama unfold.
The woman was asked to stand astride and Sihlahla took a clean white cloth from his bag and put it between her legs.
At that point, a small object fell from underneath the woman’s skirt much to the amusement of the crowd.
Everyone at the scene could be seen scrawling their face. Many were heard saying the woman dropped a stool but when the magician opened the cloth for everyone to see, it turned out the woman had dropped a chicken sized egg.
After showing the egg to the crowd, Sihlahla then picked a log from the ground and lit it to produce fire which he used to “cook” the egg.
The crowd watched in amusement as the magician used his hand to “cook” the egg.
He peeled the egg and invited the woman to share it with him.
The two ate the egg and the Woman confessed that it tasted just like the eggs people know.
“It tastes just like a normal egg which we always eat,” the woman said when the crowd asked.
After the performance, Sihlahla said what he had just done was one of the tricks in his bag of many.
“I can do anything but I cannot explain how it happens. It is just one of those magics,” Sihlahla said.
