Can anyone buying this DVD really hope to perform this brilliant effect? (this is NOT a criticism, but a genuine enquiry). your advice is greatly appreciated - Geoff |

I had the video. The prob I ran into was the size of my fingers I am 6'6 and a bit heavy. I could make my pinky disappear but my other fingers the angles were almost impossible. It is a cool routine. But had for some.

It takes time, but you can do a few of the finger twists with some practice. I do the pinky vanish and the ring finger vanish.
I've noticed over the years that the more I do it the more my fingers become limber enough to really stretch way back. It's not something you're going to buy today and then do tonight at your show. Put in some practice and you'll have a new weapon in your magic arsenal. Greg

I bought the video about a year ago - the effect is great, but it is so angly! I have no idea how Meir Yedid manages to do it on stage! I only ever perform it for a couple of people at a time.
It does, however, make them scream Lesault |

I agree with Greg - practice is a must for this effect. I first bought the booklet about 10 years ago and just bought the DVD to see if there were any updates, tips, etc. Over the years, I've found that this is type of thing I can get away with practicing at unconventional times - waiting in line, during nonproductive meetings, etc. The more practice, the more nimble you'll become (and I've found that my fingers can get into position without much effort).
Good luck! Mark |
