Honestly quite brilliant Report this review

I have reviewed many items here at Penguin, and all have been in depth evaluations neither expressing overly positive or negative views. Because I am tired of all these reviews I see that say 'GREAT! i love it, very good dvd - made my mom jump!' Because it gives no detail at all and what seems great for a beginner isn't necessarily the same for someone more experienced in actually performing outside home as a professional.

Like most I was floored by the demo by Oz! Now I know the secret I can't understand why it seemed so hard when it is now so clear! Firstly I am willing to bet money that nobody will figure this out (so long as you have got it down as good as Oz!) It is super simple BUT super sweet!

The effect is easy to have set-up at all times, and instantly re-sets!!! You don't even have to perform it, just keep it on you in case at parties. Hopefully the IT i am referring to doesn't give the game away too much. But i will say it is something that is very practical and quite dreamy to a magician after impromptu (but simple) gimmicks that offer a 'YOU ARE SATAN!' reaction.

So far, more than half the people to whom I have shown this have concluded it was actually real and had no idea it was meant to be a magic trick, expect to have people say 'Whoa, so when was the accident man.' instead of laugh in entertainment.

But in order for this review to not be biased i must give cons... well... oh to hell with it - i won't criticise something i know couldn't have been made any better!

As for the price, pft, if you're a professional magician the won't break the bank and is nothing for something like this which may very well have your name set in stone at any restaurant or pub.
