Effect: Match is placed on card and slowly hovers above it. A card can also be slided underneath the match to make it seem even more impossible!

For those that want to present a visual shocker, this is it. There is minimal practice and the utilization of mundane props makes it more effective. Definitely recommended for magicians who are looking for their first levitation trick.
(Be gentle with the gimmick for it is delicate!)

I recommend getting the original version of this trick called "Cosmosis" by Ben Harris. the effect is much stronger. First off the gimmicked card can be handled freely by a spectator and they won't find anything strange about it. Plus the match floats much higher than the other version. And as a second effect you can make the match slowly stand on its end without touching it. this knock-off version is ok, but to take it to the next level you must by Cosmosis. Look around for it because its not sold everywhere. For a more detailed description of the effect go to www.wowbound.com.

Also Cosmosis uses a Bicycle card not the bee back card on the cheaper versions. So u can just take the card of the top of a regular deck, which makes it much more convincing. :)

I would like to reinforce what both Frank and Matt have said... Only buy Cosmosis. I have bought both and was sorely dissapointed with the copy.
