BOWLING BALL BLITZ 

Bowling Ball Blitz
2 Bowling Balls from a nest of 3 briefcases

At any time during your show, you pick up your briefcase (black & silver) open it up and remove a second smaller matching case, open it up and remove a third smaller matching case.  From inside the smallest case (smaller than a standard briefcase) you proceed to remove a REAL BOWLING BALL - let the moment sink in then remove a SECOND BOWLING BALL.

CREDIT CARD FRAUD

Credit Card Fraud

A credit card is borrowed from a spectator as you explain about fraud and credit cards.  You then literally PEEL the magnetic swipe up from the spectators card revealing the plastic underneath, explaining that all the spectators information is contained on the swipe.  You then seal the swipe back down and return the card unharmed.  A great gag for SHOCK VALUE - You will do it just to see the expression on their face - the reaction is priceless.

* IMPROMPTU - NO RESETTING

$30.00 AUD

SCHNAPPS SHOT 

Schnapps Shot

At any time during your routine, you remove from your pocket a FULL TALL DOUBLE SHOT GLASS and drink the contents.  No fear of spillage.  You can produce the glass full from a spectator, use it as a load for any standard production trick.  Gimmick is hand made to ensure no leakage.  This is a TOP QUALITY HEAVY DUTY GIMMICK, not to be confused with other methods.

* GUARANTEED NOT TO LEAK

* SUPPLIED ARE THE DOUBLE SHOT GLASS AND A HEAVY DUTY GIMMICK.

$25.00 AUD

THE HEAT IS ON

The Heat is On

You borrow a note from a spectator and have them sign their name across the note.  The signed note is then placed into an envelope and "THEY" burn it.  You joke about not being able to fix it because THEY burnt it themselves, so you offer them your lighter which they used to burn their note.  You open up the lighter and inside is THEIR SIGNED NOTE.  They were holding the lighter the whole time from even before you borrow the note, they burn it - All you do is open the lighter up, remove the insert and they take their signed note out of the base.

* INSTANT RESET - THE BILL TUBE OF THE NEW MILLENNIUM.

* CAN ALSO USE SMALL COINS & RINGS ETC.

* GIMMICK WORKS AS A NORMAL LIGHTER - 100% UNGIMMICKED EXTERIOR - NOTHING TO FIND.

* ALSO SUPPLIED IS A MATCHING UNGIMMICKED LIGHTER.

$100.00 AUD

CASH OR CREDIT

Cash or Credit

You advise the audience that you take several types of payment, but cash is the most preferable.  You show the backs of four alike cards which ALL say "CASH".  A spectator is asked to name one of the cards (we will use the "aces" in this example).  The back of the first card is shown to change from "CASH" to "AMERICAN EXPRESS" then back to "CASH".  The second card changes from "CASH" to "VISA" and back to "CASH".  The third card changes from "Cash" to "MASTERCARD".  Then they ALL change to "MASTERCARD" except for the fourth and last card, which is the "only" "CASH" card.  Finally each cards is shown to have a different back, finishing with the "CASH" card on top, leaving the performer with a perfect opening for his closing line.

* AUTOMATIC RESET

* LAMINATED CARDS FOR DURABILITY AND LONG LIFE.

I CHEAT

I Cheat

Four cards are shown, you advise your audience that you "CHEAT" and their job is to catch you.  As you name a card it turns face down without detection showing a red back and it turns back face up without detection as this is repeated with each card you name.  They are unable to catch you cheat, but that's OK because you can make it easier for them by doing it slowly so they can see.  Maybe they can at least tell you the colour of the backs of the cards - "red" - Correct - Now ALL the red backs have the word "RED" printed on them.  You warned them that you cheat and now the kicker, you show ALL four backs to have the word "CHEAT" printed on them.

* AUTOMATIC RESET

$15.00 AUD

BELIEVE IT "ORB" NOT

Believe It "ORB" Not

The performer introduces an "Orb Ball" the kind you ask a question - shake it up and it gives you an answer.  You advise that it is very accurate and you live by it's answers.  You ask a question like - "Will I get lucky tonight"? the answer comes up as "Don't Bet On It" or "As if" - How accurate is that!  The ball can be inspected by anyone as you start a card trick.  A card is chosen - say the 2 of Hearts.  After much comic byplay you are unable to name their card so you ask the "Orb Ball".  "What is their card"?  Shake it up and it reveals "2 OF HEARTS".  It's amazing it really does work, show the ball give it a shake and hand it out for inspection - there is nothing to find.

* CAN BE REPEATED WITH DIFFERENT CARDS.

* YOU CAN CUSTOMIZE GIMMICK'S FOR YOUR OWN ROUTINES.

* THE BALL CAN BE INSPECTED BEFORE AND AFTER - THE NATURAL HANDLING LOADS AND STEALS THE GIMMICK.
