adapting his story to things which happened to meI did have an aunt(who did the odd trick and bought me my first flash paper.) and she too used tap me the shoulder on odd occasions. I remember standing by my great grandmother's coffin (she was my first audience at 9 years) and something seemed to touch me then. I added this in. On another occasion I was waiting for a bus to Birmingham to return to College when my ticket blew out of my hand causing me to miss the bus and had to catch the next. On the same route another bus crashed that day. I combined the two happenings plus being'tapped' at the coffin by auntie and added them in. As they had happened it wass easy to convince an audience. When the trick was over I sent the 2 (not 3)volunteers back to the audience, looked skyward and said 'Thank You Auntie Gertie' I included a demonstration of it in a lecture to our Magic Club. Just about ALL were baffled and one of our most experienced thought I was using a stooge!
Laymen have taked to me about it and they actually believe it happens. It is not psycholgical they do feel the taps.If you use it add some music whilst 'cleansing the aura' and shorten Mr. B's story. You can do it in an ordinary room. You don't need anything except confidence, showmanship and timing.
