This riddle made me remember reading about how beginning magicians are very nervous in their first public performances, since some of their tricks involve misdirecting the audience by openly lying… they learn to be more comfortable once they find out how easily the audience will pretty much accept whatever false statements they make.
It makes me wonder how dangerous magicians can become in their regular lives.
