Magic Trick Of 111! It Works!
Last two digits of your birthyear + whatever age you are going to be this year (or already are this year if you had your birthday in 2011) = 111
Try it on anyone who is still alive. No dead people. It works.
For me: 91 + 20 = 111
HUGH JACKMAN: 68 + 43 = 111
Edit: The end result will always end with "11". "111" for anyone born before 2000 and "211" for anyone born before 1900. Etc. No matter what, you will get a number that ends in 11, and it will be either 11, 111, 211, 311, etc. Try it.

You still got 11. Okay, so the end result is you get "11" no matter what, but the additional 1 is added if they were born before 2000...
I tried it on dead people and I got 211 for charlie chaplin. Hence the "11".

Last two digits of your birthyear and the age you are supposed to be in 2011. Troll harder.
EDIT: Read the first post properly, people.
LAST TWO DIGITS. '91, '87, '47, etc. + The age you are supposed to be in 2011. I am 19, but supposed to be 20 in 2011. Therefore, 91+20 = 111

That's pretty much the exact same thing he just said.
Yes, you will ALWAYS get an answer in the 100s because we use increments of a 100 when counting years using the last 2 digit method.
I don't know the technical terms, but that's the jist of it.
Yay basic math.

How is this a trick? If you did it last year, everyone would end up with 110, in 2009 it'd be 109, etc...
