Seriously, are you new to magic or something? If you knew the background of tricks like this and the problems with it, you'd be sh*tting yourself.

Sorry, Chris, but I don't appear to sound rude—but are you blind?

Could it be possible that you have cataracts? Seriously, look at the vidoe again, his hands are on both sides of the glass!

Yes thats what I meant if they wernt on both sides, if he didnt move his hand round to get the other card until you see its gone thru.... and then he goes to the other side to collect it!

Okay let me explain this easy........

You see a signed card

a hand goes up to the glass with it

as it is being "magically pushed thru" the glass

the other hand goes around the side of the glass

and then collects the card from the other side

therefore achieving a CTW effect

- Now what I meant was wouldnt it be clever if this hand didnt go aorund the other side of the glass to collect it, because that creates suspision that theres some kind of funny move goin on, so wouldnt it be nicer if it was shot from the other side and you saw the card come thru the glass without the cafuffle of hands either side?

I hope that was easy enough for you.......

OK, Chris... let's look at this another way...

Wouldn't it be simply spiffing if when performing a Balducci, the magician raises 20 feet in the air and a hovercraft passes beneath him (qualifying he's not standing on a transparent pillar) and a Samurai warrior passes a sword above his head (qualifying there are no wires holding him up).

You were told to drop the subject via your pointless Private Messages to me, as I was simply not seeing your point. You can talk about it all you wish on the forums. But don't badger me personally, as the ourobourous conversation was plainly going nowhere.

**** BACK TO THE EFFECT NOW PLEASE *****

Discussion is fine - if for some reason you or others are missing the point then the only way to sort it is to talk, that way we all learn something - hopefully!
