OK, this is a great reveal, and I imagine any magician can easily figure out how it is done as I
did. No suprises. Still the nuances made it well worth while. Scott has spent time with this idea
and worked out everything to maximize the effect.
This can be done anywhere, with no angle
issues, with no resets.
It is very organic, and produces great reactions. I have found the
reactions better when played down more than Scott does, but that is a style difference.
So,
even if you know how it is done, buy this because this is fleshed out and is a very workable trick.
The only thing I would add is getting the card signed, which is not a problem.

I'm always looking for impromptu effects I can do when dining out with friends, effects that require
a minimal amount of fuss and effort, and that pack a big visual wallop. Scott Alexander's "Diving
Fork" fits the bill.
Scott KNOWS how to entertain (check out his Penguin LIVE act), and
here he's fashioned a strong two-phase presentation, complete with crucial distinctions. Properly
performed, you'll get a lot of mileage out of this "in your face" revelation.

Nice concept which should fool audience, but probably not magicians. (Which is ok).

Easy to do, easy for your audience to understand, it plays like a hot old song and gets a great
reaction.

You will surely add this to your repertoire of restaurant/bar magic! It's easy and powerful. I've a
lot of fun when i permorm it!

Absolutely great effect using just a deck, a fork and a napkin. That's a big reason I love this
because you can perform it with those regular items and it can be done impromptu. Scott goes over
everything in detail and not only explains the subtleties but does a great job demonstrating them.
There aren't any crazy sleights, but there as one TINY one that took me a few handlings to master.
Great for restaurant work.
Wouldn't start or end set with it.
