This gimmick is wonderfull. Perfect size, perfect color, unbreakable, it will last forever.

The dvd is very poor. Poor video quality, only a routine by Dan Harlan. The routine is ok . It consists in forcing a card, taking a duplicate of a card already prepared with the gimmick, make the spectator pass the flamme of a lighter under it, and swithching the card to the prepared one.
The wickness is that you have to burn 2 cards per routine, and using a card from the deck for the revelation is not really clever.

BUT, you can do the same kind of revelation using a deck of business cards. You prepare several business cards with the gimmick, put a blank card under the business card deck, show under the deck, make a "glide" to take the prepared card face down, make the spectator pass the flame under the card (it add some trace also but it doesn't matter), turn the card: boom!!!

It is also possible to perform it "on the fly" with a business card. It requires a bit of manipulation but it's great. I have tried it and it's perfect. The size and shape of the gimmick make it perfect to palm.

I love it!!!

Last thing... You can also perform the "Third Degree Burn by Jason Palter" effect with the gimmick...
