Crash Dice is startling and visually attractive. It can be performed surrounded and close-up. It
might make a good flash opener for walk-around.
It has two drawbacks though. First,
clean-up is a bit of a challenge. The trick comes with instructions for cleaning up, but they're
impractical unless you happen to be seated at a table and can pull a Slydini. It took me several
days to find a way to clean up when performing the trick standing up.
Second, the trick
partly depends on a gimmick in the bottle. With a little ingenuity the gimmick can be disguised,
allowing the bottle to be handed out for inspection. Nevertheless, I wish the bottle lid was
designed to completely conceal the gimmick.
Despite the shortcomings, I'm enthusiastic
about this little trick. It looks like real magic and is fairly easy to perform (once you've
figured out the clean-up). This is one of Tenyo's more inspired creations.
