Very angry with my results

Postby johntheblob » Oct 3rd, '06, 20:29



My uncle taught me a magic trick recently, and also gave me printed instructions and the sponge balls to do his imfamous "magic balls" trick. In this trick, the magician holds one color ball (or spotted ball) and the other person holds a different color ball. The other person is supposed to get both balls at the end of the trick, but i cant do the effect right. As you may know, my right hand isnt very functional, and I wanted to know if you knew how to do this particular effect one handed, or just hd a tip or two.

I apologize if this is way out of line to ask, seeing as I havent really been here long at all.

Regardless, any help would be appreciated. Perhaps a PM would be best for sharing information.

with the general infomation youv'e given all i can suggest is that you have them place the ball on the table under the pretense of explaining what may happen to the ball, then place it back in there hand and close it using a contact transfer.
i often do this with kids as its more secure, the other method is to move the ball from one specs hand to there other hand or a diferent spec to achieve the contact transfer.
