Just got this DVD and finished watching. Initial thoughts are similar to the review but as already stated, it's a bit hit or miss getting the right amount of aardvark to make this work.
It is a clever method indeed but what are your experiences of performing this to a real audience? I'm not as convinced as some that it will consistently be as strong as the reactions in the footage on the DVD. I also have reservations about the potential mishap of not having enough aardvark as this still appears to be hit and miss, even with practice. I've also found that new cards work much better than those that have seen some light of day. Has anyone else found this?
Time will tell but as asked, what are your real world experiences of performing this to others? So far, this review is short of examples.

It's not really an optical illusion - it just looks like one!
