Review
Although it is very easy to do, it is what I would call a quickie. It is not really strong enough to stand on it's own. In a large ground of more than 5 people, it can be hard to see the magic happen. The gimmick mustt be "rebuilt" each time. It needs to be rebuilt 30 minutes before the performance to work right. This is a pain.
Overall
This trick could work for the right environment for a person who is willing to work to a very small group of people when performing.
Score 6 out of 10.
