Almost every magic kit on earth has the famous ball and vase gimmick inside. But if you take that to the street you’ll be laughed at. <\/p>\n
This new gimmick takes that bullet-proof method and applies it to something we’ve all seen and used… “Airpods”. <\/p>\n
It could not be easier. Show they’re inside. Close it.<\/p>\n
Have your spectator open it. They’re GONE. Vanished… The case is empty. <\/p>\n
Skill level = zero. It cannot fail. <\/b><\/p>\n
From Brad Christian…<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
“Every kid has a Ball and Vase. Some of us still do.<\/p>\n
I did it for my 1st-grade class when I was 6 for “show and tell” and killed with it. They mobbed me after the show and found out how I did it but that’s another story lol.<\/p>\n
The principle behind the ball and vase is one of the most effective in the art of illusion and is still used in stage shows every day.<\/p>\n
The problem with the effect is the following. A “highly suspect” bright red plastic “vehicle” to hold the bright blue plastic ball that then disappears. As such, it’s a kid’s trick and nothing more.<\/p>\n
Let’s face it, there’s nothing natural about the old version and it STILL amazed everyone I did it for. What IS natural is a pair of Airpods that almost everyone uses daily. No one suspects the item and it flies under the radar 100% of the time.<\/p>\n
And so we created the effect with plain white headphones. As natural as it gets and as GOOD as it gets. Self-working, brilliant for Zoom shows, and more brilliant performed in person.<\/p>\n
Taught on video by both Eric Jones and Ryan Tricks (included), both of whom won’t leave home without it, the effect is a bonafide winner and can be woven into any routine for lightning reactions. Get it.”
