Red Hot Brass Ball~

Postby UndergroundMark » Jun 8th, '05, 01:43



The Effect

A brass ball is taken off of a pedestal and passed around for inspection. Eventually the audiance will notice it getting warm and then too hot to handle
.

Review
I belive that this trick is an amazingley easy power puncher. You can lead up to it's effect like a million different ways.
It can be placed in a variety of different categorys also for instance. Mentalizim, Spook Trick
General Stage Magic.




Overall

This will be in my routine for ever!

If you have not seen one, how the heck can you offer a review?

There are no rules against bumping, but why would you? It's a terrible review with absolutely no substance and inconclusive objectivity and delivery.

Why on earth you'd want to bump your own review, especially given the poor content, is quite beyond me...

Don't understand what BUmpo means :roll:

Agree with Dale -if you only believe that it's an amazing effect and haven't seen it, then how can you add it to your routine?

If I remember rightly, Which I normally do !! :wink: I believe Paul Daniels did something similar to this MANY years ago on his own show.
He had two balls though and one became hot while the other became very cold. I too do not know the name of the effect or if it is commercally available, just wondered if anyone else remembers seeing it.

Ah - I never knew that bump stood for Bring Up My Post :). I always thought that it was just 'bumping' the post to the top of the list.

Always good to learn something new eh :D!
