Skip forward to 5:30 if you're not interested in the usual Ellusionist flashy gumf, because Ollie Mealing then explains the methods behind a trick that is so outrageously ballsy I simply have to try it.

That is indeed utterly outrageous!

I seem to remember Beardy doing a similar effect in the pub at Tabula Mentis in November 2011.

And did he get away with it?

He did indeed.

Lovely. Got to give this a try!

Awesome! That's an 'out of the box' solution!

I'll have to try it!

As a face to face trick it would work nicely I think - performing surrounded - not so much!

Ollie and his magic are both amazing. This is bold. And I think it's awesome.

Ollie let me lecture a couple of his items he's a very nice guy and deserves lots if respect. I'm so please he is doing so well.

Performed three times this weekend. Success rate: 3 on 3.

So why have I decided never to perform it again? Because the temptation to reveal what has just happened is too great. Its so ballsy, you fell like you want extra credit for it, rather than just the reaction.

I spotted it straight away during the demo but face to face with a little misdirection it could work nicely. I might have to give it a try soon.
