hey guys anyone seen the incredible shrinking finger. does anyone know if it's any good? I would love to see a video of the effect. Any sites out there. It sounds like a really weird bit of magic

Effect - The magician grabs his pinkie finger and visually shrink it. The weird stumpy thing is shown both sides and can even move a little. Then with a pull, the finger stretches back to its normal state. Finger can be examined.

Method - The method is really simple, based on Meir Yedid's Shrinking Finger routine. Takes a little practice to get it down smoothly and make the moves natural

Gimmick - Kind of hard to make, I don't mean to use during performance, what I mean is it's kind of hard to get the gimmick to match your finger.

Angles - the angles are not great, but you have about 120 degrees.

Reactions - The reactions are great, some people freak out and really finds the weird stumpy shrunked finger disturbing. If you perform this smoothly, they won't figure it out.

Overall it's a pretty goos trick, but preparations is a little tricky.

8/10

Hey, Yes i have gotthe trick and it looks great, It's worth it just fr the "Move" in it. You may have to creat your own style though and i'd recomend buying some Rubber Cement....
