Review: Control 2.0

Postby Eshly » Thu Dec 24, 2009 9:01 pm


Control 2.0


The effect: Stop your heart beat. A spectator feels for your pulse and finds it, then you slow it down and make it stop.


Points to note:

1. It is completely impromptu
2. No gimmicks
3. Nothing under the arm
4. Completely safe
5. Easy to learn



This DVD is packed full of useful info; its over an hour and a half long and -although the secret itself takes only 30 seconds to explain- it teaches you the method and presentation in great detail.

It has multiple performances and "walk-throughs" and the creator, Wayne Houchin, is the best teacher I have ever seen.

If you are into Mentalism I can highly recommend this, and maybe a few magicians might even like it. I personally am very, very pleased with the purchase. It only cost me £20 and was well worth it.

It does have ONE downside however; you will probably need a friend to practice this on. But I'm sure not even us magician folk are THAT lonely :p



10/10 (best buy for ages)

£20 for a un-gimmicked pulse stop! What next, £30 for a french drop?

Sorry, just a little miffed about what they charge for things these days :shock:

Don't give them ideas!
Pretty sure they charge £20 for the [eh hem] "shapeshifter" colour change.

If anyone wants to learn the "DL" (sp?) I will sell the secret for a measly ten english pounds.
Help me get to Blackpool 2012 please?
Take a look at this thread and be a nice guy

I got an update of this because of having the DVD. Well it's free so, why not? The update includes an effect called Johnson Justification. It's not really an effect but another approach if there are medical practioners in the audience. Remember, they would not check your pulse. It is just a method of making them as an instant stooge.

I don't give this product a 10/10 rating. Obviously, the reviewer haven't tried this in real life. I would ratehr stick with the methods I use for years.
