Magic Tricks

Hi! This is your official PenguinMagic reviewer, B_Magic.

BUY IT! BUY IT! BUY IT! AND DON'T LOOK BACK! Well, maybe...

This was one of my most performed miracles for the longest time! It's no secret that I tend to LOVE Greg Wilson effects, and this is no different. His stuff packs small but plays HUGE, and it's the same here! You may hear effects being called "reputation makers," but this one will literally do just that. It's not just a saying here.

I give it 4 stars (where, perhaps a year or two ago I would definitely give it 5) because of a few reasons. Firstly, the effect can be done with other than $100 bills (which can be an expensive investment for many people. $606 to construct this gimmick), but really, to have that WOW OMG moment it needs to be $100's. Secondly, though I love the ease of this effect (it's VERY easy to perform), I've found that doing a KILLER sleight of hand bill switch gets the same or even bigger reactions, you learn a very useful move, and everything becomes examinable (you get to borrow the $$$).

For most audiences, magic this powerful always leads to skepticism of the items used. This trick does not end clean and can't be fully examined. However, it is MOSTLY examinable and can get by as a miracle pretty good.

Unless you're really ready to put in a lot of time perfecting a solid bill switch, you should definitely pick this one up! You won't regret it.
