Flash paper. One of the best little gizmo's ever invented. Produce cards , bottles , coins ect...and vanish objects with a burst of flame form your fist.

I have been using flash paper all my magic career and I was wondering if anyone had some decent effects to use with it. I know routines such as producing a whole deck of cards and bending a coin but I also have some favourites such as "Hot Sauce" by Nathan Kranzo (a match is dropped into the magi's fist , out bursts a HUGE flame and when the hand is opened , a packet of hot sauce it there. Wow! Really hot hot sauce. Then , the packet is torn open and smoke rolls out the top to prove how hot it is). Also effects combined with cards such as"In a flash" by Jay Sankey (a coin penetrates down through the deck in a flash to find the selected card). What other effect do you use to get great reactions with flash paper?

(On the poll , the last option is what I did at my brother's birthday party. I don't think they ever ate marmite again )

What would you say is the best way of discreetly lighting flash paper is?

[Mark Waddington]

It depends on what you are using the flash paper for, if your using it for sankeys 'in a flash' then i justlight it in front of them

you can also find a ball point pen that has a tiny heater element rather than a writing tip so the paper bursts into flames when the pen touches it
