I was born with Multiple Personality Disorder. Luckily, they are all me, they just dont always get along...

I have yet to perform this for anyone, but I have a question before I do. In the last stage of the trick, have any of you had a certain noise give you away. Everytime I do it, I hear it. Maybe its just because I am aware of whats happening, but I just wanted to get your feedback.

Nope... never had it give the game away.

Can't say too much here without fear of exposure, but I think it's just cos you're listening out for it yourself

Redsixer, in the last step i have a noise, i think it might be the step just before the very last thing you do. I think that misdirection, well, just using patterf should help. If you bring the can towards you whilst talking then it should be okay.

My question is the last step, just before you pour out the contents. Maybe it is just me.
