How do you brake a pencil with a dollar?

Fold the dollar until it is a small, thick strip of dollar bill. It should be rectangular in shape. Put the pencil so that the middle is exposed but both ends of the pencil are on two separate pieces. Use the dollar to pull down the pencil through the middle, even though the two ends are on separate tables or other pieces of furniture. You will break the pencil this way using a dollar bill.
