http://www.murphysmagic.com/Iced-Over-b ... Trick?sc=7


what they say is..


Effect

The magician shows his hands empty. He then pours water into his cupped hand, closes it into a fist and blows on it. Upon opening his hand, the water has turned to ice.

No Special Glass, Set Up Takes Seconds, Great for Walk-Around or Table Hopping, Very Impromptu, Repeatable. Produce the ice then throw it into your beverage!

I believe Gerard's version is quite different, and uses something which is NOT real ice.

Ahem. Maybe I'm missing summat but this could be done rather simply with a tt. Is there a new gimmick perhaps?

Yes. TT plus S***H P****R haha. That is what I was thinking anyway, but certainly not for 56$. I would want this if it became edible ice.

Sorry to DP (ha, my school buddies would certainly take that the wrong way...)

But I found this http://www.penguinmagic.com/specialorderproduct.php?ID=8815 Which is what I think the thread originally was about but this is significantly cheaper (more than half ) and it claims you can toss it into your beverage!

If anyone has experience with this one, I'd be very excited to hear some feedback

In my chemistry class my professor taught us about a chemical property that states that you can supercool something past it's freezing point and not have it freeze, as long as it's in a container is clear of imperfections, and the water is pure (de-ionized). Then by breathing on it you create a site of impurity which will create a chain of freezing and the entire solution will freeze.

I can't remember the name, but I think it's nucleophillic site, or something with nucleophile.

Now I don't think this is consider revealing anything, but if an admin will say otherwise please delete it.

I have never seen the trick that the original poster asked about, and I am doing this so they might be steered towards some scientific research on how it works so that they could make a decision on the trick.

Sean Fields has two water to ice effects in his booklet, Explicit Content. One is suitable for stage and one for a more 'impromptu' setting, although the impromptu version (where water turns to ice in your hand) is unsuitable for walkaround and still requires setting up.
