A good piece of magic is magic that looks totally impossible. Modern magic is visual - people are amazed when they can actually see magic happening instantly. At those times, they are stunned in silence by what has just happened. Welcome to FIVE IN A HOLE, which achieves BOTH of these objectives: magic that looks absolutely impossible, and visually happens in an instant!

Two bills ($1 and $5) are removed from your wallet and presented to the audience. You ask a spectator to hold the $1 bill and you hold onto the $5 bill. Then, with just a little touch of these two bills together and a magic snap, a number 5 is now printed on the $1 bill! And that's not all - the 5 is GONE from the $5 bill - it is now just a hole! The spectator can then examine the money that they are holding in their own hands as much as they want, and they absolutely pause in stunned silence by what has just happened.

It's a highly visual money effect that fits right inside your wallet and plays big for a full crowd. It's easy to do and resets instantly. Grab yours now!

If done with a lot of practice it might look convincing.
The setup it very complicated the method is not at all practical.
The gimmick is not made so be ready for more
arts and crafts.

Arts and Crafts Project Report this review

This is not a magic trick, it is an arts and crafts project.

I say this because I will bet, that if you purchase the trick you will spend more time building it than you will performing it.

It gets 2 stars because you could use it for a set up camera shot, but no way is this gimmick going to hold up with you strolling.

Also, you start dirty, you end dirty.

As others have mentioned, there is quite a bit of arts and crafts involved in this. That wouldn't be so bad if the directions were detailed and clearly presented but they aren't. The video and lighting are mediocre which makes seeing some of the setup difficult. There are a couple of transparent elements supplied which are difficult to see in real life, let alone on video. The instructor is facing the camera and makes no effort to orient the materials (or change the camera angle) to make the construction easier. I had to take everything apart and reconstruct the gimmicks on more than one occasion. Finally, and this isn't usually a problem for me, but the presenter is heavily accented and I personally had difficulty understanding a lot of what was said. This all extended the already substantial preparation time.

The underlying idea is a good one but this feels like a trick that was way overdeveloped. It almost felt like the creators were so taken with the cleverness of the gimmick that they didn't consider other aspects of the effect. I actually ended up tossing most of the supplied elements and creating my own version of the effect that actually ends clean (both bills can be handed out immediately after. Would be happy to share if you need: joe.martin70@aol.com.

I bought this because it was in cool box. I'm an artist so the arts and crafts didn't bother me much.... the thing with this effect is the WHY? There seems to be no purpose to this it seems more of a look what I can do kind of trick... Not practical and going in the junk drawer.
