Here's what's wrong with this (I bought this some time ago, so this review is late to the game):
1. Good luck finding beads that will work. I have tried real Mardi Gras beads and a large
variety of beads from gift stores, and none are spaced right for the trick. Moreover, most beads you
buy these days have the safety "pop apart" feature (thanks to personal injury lawyers), so your
spectator easily assumes you just popped the strings apart.
2. This trick is a very
limited effect. I mean, honestly, how long does this last? It's almost one that evokes, "Is that the
best you can do?"
My advice: save your money.
