hey there i am a street performer and I'm thinking of using this trick as a finally to my act. my main problem is the ending seems to have the effect of an anti climax and god knows we all hate a poor climax. :shock:

can any one advise me on an alternative ending for this very intense trick.

cheers

Hahahahahahaha :lol:

stop it now please James.....

Actualy you could do it if you used a fake nail, you know the ones you get from a joke shop that fits around your finger....

If you perform it well you shouldn't need a better climax than "WOW you were lucky you did not pick that cup"

there are different ways of doing this trick some are dangerous some only appear to be dangerous liek mine i would never do the trick of i thought for a second i couldn't do it succesfully. a blindfold would work however it doesn't improve the ending which is the main problem

Why not have a blood capsule in your hand and as you slap down a cup squirt blood everywhere, you could then pick up the cups and run.

Or just use the blood capsule, thenturn you hand over and wipe the blood away.

well thats a good idea thanks although the running away bit isn't so great as i wouldn't get paid lol. I'm not sure if a blood capsule is the right way to go for my show as it isn't really an ending any ideas tho are welcomed and thanks for ur thoughts on this keep them coming

Could you possibly habe a playing card in the cup you slam your hand down on saying something like "thanks for watching"?? Not really sure sorry.

by **Figo** » Jun 29th, '06, 23:02

oh now this is the kind of stuff I'm talking about that is a great idea and was kinda what i was thinking although i was thinking about a toy chicken and make a gag about it i just don't know how i would do the switch
