Questions or Comments on certain magic tricks

Postby bowiee2003 » Jan 18th, '06, 17:26



Hello Everyone :D

I have a few questions about some tricks that I am interested in. I am hoping that someone out there could answer for me. First, I just want to state that I am a very beginner in magic so please bear with me and that I have tried to search the forums before posting my questions, but I couldn’t the answers. So here goes…..

1. I am very interested in a magic trick called The Web by Jim Pace. It seems to be a very good trick ( mostly have read excellent reviews on it) at a wonderful price, but I was wondering how easy is??
2. I am also interested in a trick called Needle Thru Arm. I have seen few different versions and I was wondering about the difficulty of this trick and how good it is?? Couldn’t find any really reviews or info on this trick ( there is a few girls at work that are very scared at the site of blood, and thought that might be a good way to freak them out).
3. The other trick I have been looking at is one called Hole Sensation by Iain Moran.
It looks really neat, but I think it made be a little bit out of my league, but I was wondering again how hard it to perform this??? I don’t want to jump into anything that might really frustrate me.

Thanks for taking the time to read it and possible answer it or lead me in the right direction….Sorry also if this in the wrong section

P.S.—The only trick I have doing is playing with the Hummer card for the last trick 3 weeks which I do like and think about getting maybe an ITR or spiderpen, any suggestions??

Hi and welcome!

For The Web see http://www.talkmagic.co.uk/ftopic1396.php&highlight=web for a Review and comments. The trick itself is classed as easy as there's only one simple move which you do to misdirect the spectators and everything else is just presentation.

For Needle Thru Arm there may be plenty of tips and advice here so just type in Needle Thru Arm in the Search function, select 'Search on all words' and see what turns up. It's a gory effect and not exactly family magic so you need to make sure your audience will appreciate what you're doing rather than faint or throw up all over you.

I'll leave One Hole Sensation for you to Search about and I'm sure other TM members will have some input.

PS When you get a few minutes to spare, why not nip over to the Introduction Area and let us know a bit more about you?
