I have bought a number of tricks from Penguin such as Flip, Ties, Follow the Leader, The Raven,
Snaps, and maybe another one or 2 I'm forgetting. I haven't begun messing with the Raven yet, but
aside from Ties- I must say that Crazy Sam's Handcuffs is by far MY FAVORITE ILLUSION yet!
The video comes with about 10-15 different tricks including how to pass rubber bands through
each other, how to pass pens through rubber bands, through your own fingers, scissors, and so much
more. Someone else can even hold the rubber band stretched out, and you will pass your rubber bands
right through it.
This is an illusion that works VERY WELL. It's one of those things that
make you mad you couldn't just figure it out yourself.
There are no trick rubber bands.
They are real rubber bands. You can BORROW rubber bands, bracelets, tubes of chapstick, etc. and the
trick will look great.
My only issue is that I can't do it as good as in the video! There
is basic sleight of hand involved, and it's so simple, yet for some reason, I don't have it down
just yet. I will keep practicing because even when I watch the video, after learning how the trick
is done, it STILL amazes me to see. I want to get THAT good at it, but I'm not there yet. Still my
favorite illusion.
