This is a simple trick that falls into the "small miracle" category. So instead of a mile-high aerial, or a flaming finger, you have a little trick that stays firmly rooted in your hand. First thing you'll need to do is master a Side Squeeze. To do this, hold the lighter with the Reverse Bottom sitting on the side of your curled middle finger, with your Index on the Cap corner opposite the Hinge, and your Thumb on the Bottom Hinge-side corner. Squeeze so that your Index slides down the side of the lighter, opening the Cap. Rotate the lighter 90 degrees downward, so that it is pointing at the floor and then slide the inside tip of your Pinkie against the Flint Wheel, providing ignition. The Rotate your wrist palm up, presenting the lit lighter. Close by doing a Cap Push with your Thumb. Once you've mastered the Side Squeeze you should try flipping the lighter upside down and attempting an Inverse Side Squeeze. A good trick that illustrates that particular maneuver is Booty's trick George.
