A practical special effect is one in which a prop object appears to work in a situation where it obviously could not (such as a ringing telephone on stage) or works in a manner that is physically impossible (such as a bottle breaking over an actor's head.) No trick photography or post-production editing is involved. This type of effect is normally found in live theatre.
