Ripping a phone book in half is really quite easy if you know the trick.
Just break the spine (it helps if the humidity is low, so the paper is less
flexible) first. Once the pages are torn at the spine, you can rip them the
rest of the way.

I always did want to learn how to rip a phone book in half with my bare
hands but never got around to ordering.
