You bring the crowd in close, then open a small pocket knife. Your hands are otherwise empty, and the blade is seen to be normal.

Placing the blade on bare flesh, you pierce a fingetip and squeeze out a single drop of blood.

Again, both hands are seen to be empty except for the single drop of blood at your fingertip.

You clearly show bothsides of a fingertip from your other hand. Slowly, you press it down onto the drop of blood. You silently wait there for a moment, fingertip to fingertip. You slowly lift one finger and the drop of blood is gone! In it's place, perched on the end of your finger, is a living breathing ladybug!

The creation of life...on the tip of your finger.

  • Start and finish clean.
  • Practical, easy, real world handling.
  • Resets with another ladybug in 30 seconds.
  • Neither the performer nor ladybug are harmed during the effect!
  • Alternate "non-bug" presentation to transform the drop of blood into a tiny heart.
  • No actual piercing of flesh is required.
  • Optional handling leaves the ladybug sealed inside a clear plastic bag.
  • Ladybug resource guide: You can easily obtain enough ladybugs for hundreds of performances. The ladybugs are shipped in a self contained package and require no feeding or care.

What You Get

Includes custom-engineered knife, carrying case, and DVD instructional.

This is one of those effects that are very easy to describe and which people tend to exaggerate as they tell. I've heard a spectator speak about seeing the blood coagulate slowly, and then turn into a lady bug, walk to the end of my finger and fly away. That is how strong this is.

I love this effect! It is so well made and well designed. You get extra gimmicks in case you lose one. You shouldn't need them, but it's nice to have. They teach a bunch of routines. I really like that it is so different from other forms of magic. As for the bugs, they are not a big deal. Many people purchase lady bugs for their garden. I suggest you purchase the bugs, perform for a month, and just release them into a garden where they will go to work eliminating unwanted pests. The difference between lady bugs and most other bugs is most people see lady bugs as our hard working friends who eliminate other pests.

Reputation Maker Report this review

People, This is a reputation maker that people are left talking about for years after it happened. Every time I hear about the trick people tell the craziest details. Like the drop coagulated slowly in front of them and then turned into a lady bug, walked to the tip of my finger and flew away. Getting lady bugs is the only problem, but that's not a problem with the trick, and you can get them online and in local stores too. They go over it in the dvd.

Surprised I was! I was wondering where's the knife when I got it, then you see what it comes with. Thanks for the extra refills cause the gimmicks are small. Yes just like the other reviews get the ladybugs and stick them in the fridge it's bizzare but it will save you time will you wait for it to be shipped. Other than that, work on the none ladybug effects.

Beautiful. Report this review

What a beautiful effect this is. Im a big fan of unique effects and they don't come much more unique than this. It will require setting up and a bit of dedication but I think it's fair to say it's worthit for the reactions.

The Real Deal Report this review

WOW, this is such a knock out of a trick. Creating life from your own warm blood. This will make you a legend. Please do not buy this. I want to keep this to myself.

This is a real reputation maker however it is a little overpriced.If you absolutely must have it get it. Make sure you buy your ladybugs first from a gardening site.

Really Great! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 31st, 2007
I really love this effect. The idea really intrigued me when I first read about it, and I just had to get it. After cracking open the package and learning the method, I have to say that it is extremely practical and actually easier than you might think. I've only performed it so far for my immediate family, and they were very impressed. I'm sure this is going to be a real reputation maker in the future, so I recommend you pick this up. That is, if you have the extra cash. ;)

Very Good... Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 12th, 2007
I think this works as a great finale for a close-up worker. The handling of this effect is so innocent and simple, won't take practice learning handling. The hardest part of this trick is the "acting"...There are other non-ladybug effects that can be accomplished with this.

4 stars because I only got 1 extra gimmick.

Brilliant Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 12th, 2007
Another absolutely brilliant effect by Paul Harris. Ladybug is easy and practical in the real world. The knife is extremely well made--it exceeded my expectations. Basically it looks like a small black pocket knife you would carry on the end of a keychain--about the size of your pinky. The DVD explains everything very clearly, and Joe Russell demonstrates the effect on the streets. You also get two extra gimmicks in case you lose the one you have, and two extra carriers for ladybugs so you can repeat the effect twice. I love this effect. I know the price is steep, but it's worth every penny. Again, just a brilliant effect.
