Hi guys, I just want to share with you my newly discovered video:Saw

http://www.potflix.com/challenge/view/a ... s?curr=saw

...Gosh!!! I can't imagine myself can do that!! Even I will learn the secrete in that trick, I still won't do that..

What do you think?

Not a particularly good performance of the trick. Another occasion of a novice trying to perform magic, and doing it poorly. God bless YouTube

Thanks for the comment...

God "Bless" YouTube???

I can think of other suffixes that would be more appropriate

Dynamo has a much better take on this. He pops a polo mint in his mouth before he does it, and when the string comes back out of his neck the mint is threaded onto it.

Unfortunately, that move isn't actually Dynamo's take on the effect - it's taught, as standard, on the DVD, along with another couple of subtleties

i think saw is a crappy trick. Allways have done, and always will.

it will never cement a relationship with the audience because it lacks logic.

and logic, is the glue that keeps the bond between performer and audience solid.


( fnar... see what i did there guys )

On yer bike (ohh, tremble at my extreme subtlety )

You're sounding like Blackstone Jr complaining about the Impalement Illusion and bitching that he'd not do the Buzz Saw if his father hadn't made it so famous.

I have always though that given the chance, i would be a good Blackstone jr tribute act

( and that is true... i can point at boxes and clap my hands like a goodun )


and my on stage persona, crosses even the widest, and brightest of footlights.

( so ive been told)

I didn't actually think that Dynamo invented that version. I just meant that he does it that way, and I much prefer it like that because, as iffy as the effect actually is, having a mint seemingly pop out of your neck at the end adds an extra red-herring to keep the technique a secret. Although it's Pritty obvious that most people on this thread are aware of how it's done :p
