Here is a quick little demo I did last night so people could see what my effect looks like. Enjoy.

Heh, high five for the weird legs Smile

Pretty neat, although I'm not sure how convincing the '360 turn' part of it is. Course, that's hard to judge when I watched it on a video knowing what to expect.

If you are convinced or not, there is a 360 degree twist after the two feet. But believe me when I do the second part, people get really weird.

Great job.
I have never seen that before and I was surprised.

I am the creator, and since I haven't released it yet, and this was my second video of it ever posted on the internet, I am not surprised you haven't seen it. Thanks for the compliments.

I have said this on another thread...the video shows a little bit of prework. I am new to computer video work and had trouble editing the video (my Ulead program is acting up) so I just posted the whole thing, but those are their real first time reactions to the effect.

I'm quite sure they do Smile Put your creation together with the arm twist, and you could start your contortionist show Smile

Anything specific that you need help with on ULead?

I think I just need to reload some of the drivers needed.

That was great! Obviously good reactions from spectators. If you do edit the video be careful, don't want to end up like Criss Angel Smile
Good job. Smile
Formerly, when religion was strong and science weak, men mistook magic for medicine; now, when science is strong and religion weak, men mistake medicine for magic.

It looked OK - could not really see much, video was pretty dark and their was background noise, so could not hear what you were saying.

Yeah, It was done at night right next to a bar. I posted this so people who were interested in the effect could see what it looked like. You don't need to hear anything that I say as it is a totally visual effect. But if you listen closely, you can hear the one spectator say "That's gross....cool!" when I do it the first time. Hopefully in the days to come I will have a daylight version of it.

I have decided to put this out. It has been suggested to me to make this a booklet retailing for about $15.00. Is that a good price? I will look into get some initial booklets printed and sending some out to select people. We will then see how it goes from there.

That's Awesome! So when and where will we be able to get our hands on it?
Andrew Maine usually sells his illusion booklets for that price and booklets are usually around that. Thanks and I really look forward to this

Sorry to SHATTER your dreams SCATTERED Dream, but I have reconsidered putting this out. I'll give private one-on-one instruction on it though.

The reason for the change:

I don't believe most people who buy this would put in the effort to do it properly. It can take up to a year to do it. It is physically demanding and some people might not do it due to physical limitations. Stretching is a necessity. I don't want this to be exposed all over the place like other new tricks...especially "street" magic type of effects like this.

I have been doing this for like 10 years now and it is a signature effect I do. I kind of like being one of the few who do this.
