MIND BALL is a custom-made Magic 8 Ball-type device that allows for a routine that combines solid amazement with built-in amusement. It just may be the ultimate party trick, but I've performed it as part of a formal close-up act and as a bar magic item - wherever you have a group of people, you can perform MIND BALL.

The Effect:

Two spectators - one male and one female - select cards from an examined and shuffled deck using what appear to be ultra-fair conditions. The magician does not touch the deck during this process. The male spectator is left with a card in front of him, the female spectator with a card in front of her. They concentrate on their cards, and the MIND BALL not only reveals which cards were selected, but whose is whose!

Throughout this participatory routine the ball can be passed around, reading the minds of people in the audience, as when it is not revealing a card it is saying something amusing. Click below to see the promo video for MIND BALL...

MIND BALL does not cost hundreds of dollars because there are no electronics... you "ride the ball" as one random phrase after another appears in the window until both selections have been revealed. The trick is extremely easy to do, and exceptionally baffling, but its greatest attribute is the solid entertainment value that is produced by MIND BALL.

I think David Regal is one of the best minds in magic today, I have many of his products. I love the idea behind Mind Ball, but the prop is of very poor quality.

The Mind Ball by David Regal is one of those effects that is fun to perform each and every time you do it. What you see is what you get, so if the effect interests you pick it up. There are no hidden draw backs. Just be aware that you cannot control when both cards will be revealed. But, to my mind that makes it more fun, and entertaining as a performer because you have to roll with it. No pun intended.

I think a great way of presenting this is to simply leave it in in plain sight in one of the display boxes and wait for someone to ask why you carry a magic 8 ball in your magic kit, explain to them it isn't a magic 8 ball, but a Mind Ball! then ask them to gather some people for a demonstration. It makes an awesome soft opening to a show, especially at a wedding or banquet. Let the person that asked gather some friends, perform Mind Ball, then tell them the main show starts in 15 minutes. They will go out and drag an audience back to you via word of mouth.

This is one of those effects that I have chosen not to perform live yet due to my still seeing new possibilities with it! Your imagination and innovation can carry this effect even further than descibed!

Pretty good, but... Report this review

I like the over all effect and reaction, but when the same answer keeps popping up and you exhausted every byplay you can think of only for the same answer to again pop-up yet AGAIN??? can be an awkward moment. However, I made that the moment, even shook the thing to death and acting the part worked however, I still would have preferred some short of control for the best random answers. My ball kept revealing the name of the ladies card. With the nature of the design of the ball that has to be expected time to time. If I continuing using the mind ball and still get the same results, I may reconsider using it on a regular bases. However, I can see great potential using it at parties. All in all I like it, but may not be best for a regular show.
