Matt Johnson's reputation-making pocket illusion FREAKS PEOPLE OUT.

Anytime you want, invite someone to push a pen THROUGH YOUR FINGER.

You can even show the hole, heal it visually and hand everything out.

Beautifully performed and taught by Matt himself.

Manufacturer Says

Matthew Johnson credits Peter Kane's "Finger Flinger" as the inspiration for his trick Pen Through Finger.

Joe Monti has also independently invented and innovated greatly on this plot over the last 25 years. His work is significant and worth learning.

This is a very nice illusion you can do impromptu with only a card,pen and your hand but having big hands is probably better i have kinda small hands so it's a little hard for me but i can get it like 80% of the time i'm just going to practice more until i get it 100% of the time if you want a nice illusion you should get this!

Good, but hard. Report this review

You get 8 minutes of performance and 6 - 7 minutes of explanation.
This is not easy, you will have to put in a lot of practice in order not to flash anything, and to make it smooth. And also, it is very easy to figure out, that is probably why they barly showed the trick in the trailer.

Buy if you are willing to put in a lot of practice.

Cheap, Easy Worker Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on September 18th, 2013
Personally, I found this trick out by watching the advertisement video, but since it's so cheap, I decided to purchase it in case it came with a bonus or some important pointers.

What you get with this purchase is 15 minutes if video, 8 of which are performance/the-advertisement, about 6 if which are explanation, and the last is credit. With that being said, I'm sure a few people will notice a problem right away. - He basically only put in enough time to explain how it works, mention that timing is very important, compare it to the trick is was based off of, and flirt with the girl.

As mentioned, I found out the method before my purchase, so this was a little upsetting. However, if you do not understand the method used, I believe it is very worth it. My biggest problem with the actual explanation is that he didn't give many tips (other than timing) on the performance, so your left to figure out some details yourself.

I would mention the tips, but I'm afraid that'd reveal the trick..

This trick is very fun to perform, and not only do you learn the how-to in this video, but you also get to see a working professional perform it. To me, this made the video very worth the purchase. It's a perfect way to end a Signed-Card routine (since you're giving away the card anyways) and my favorite part;

A few days after performing this for somebody I know, they told me "You know, I can't get that out of my head! Where I stabbed a pen through your finger, that was freaky!!" Which tells me this trick has potential to leave some very lasting impressions.

I would leave this trick with just 4 stars due to the lack-of depth in the explanation, but everything else was just so perfect that my conscious will not allow it. 5 stars

Don't work for me. Report this review

I was a bit skeptical if this would work for me, So I gave it a miss when I first noticed it a few days ago. Than I saw it on sale, so I thought I don't have much to loose if it don't work. My first impression when i seen it, came true. I think my hands are to large for the trick to work, I tried for some time today, I can't say more without given it away.

This trick is obviously a worker. Matt does a great job teaching and his idea is brilliant. Not to mention, you get to see Matt in the trenches and he's definitely not performing for actors. He's funny! Spend more than five minutes learning this routine and you've got a killer trick to add to your set.

I performed it 5 time tonight, seems it work better on women than man. I really wish more details in the explaination. Finaly, I well catch the technic watching in slow motion the explanation and the performances.

SICK! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on September 14th, 2013
Im not usually fooled by un gimmicked effects like this, but when I saw it the first time my jaw dropped. The illusion is killer. It requires some practice, timing, and dexterity, but you will use this effect all of the time. Well worth the price to learn something like this. The instructions were very clear and this is impromptu. Add to cart NOW!
