Watch stealing help?

Postby SpongeBallSlight-of-hand » Jan 16th, '07, 23:40



I'm looking into watch stealing manipulations while doing a trick. You know, like when david blaine did a trick and stole the persons watch, and then gave it back to them.

I've found this video:http://www.magictricks.com/videos/dvds/dvdwatchsteal.htm

For sale.

Is this a good one to buy?
How hard is it to master?
How much practice is needed?

I have sinful (aka coin thru soda can), compared to sinful (which takes practice which I can do), how much harder is it?

Thank you![/url]

My suggestion would be that you simply learn as many different watch steals as you can and then add that into whatever routine you may wish to use... Terry Lunceford used to do the steal when he did his Sponge Ball routine while other's did so in a coin sequence.

Learn to be a proficient Pick Pocket and a magician and let your creativity flow... you'll find the right way to make it work for you. :wink:

There's a guy called Bob Arno who's dubbed to be 'The world's only legitimate pickpocket'. I don't know whether he's got a book though.
