I don't know about in the States, but here in the UK that would never pass as a real can.

That wouldn't fly at all. The graphic isn't the same any more, and the can looks like it should have one of those peal back openings like in the 80's or whatever. Its to square. It might not be like in the picture though. I'd check and see what's going on with that one before I bought it. PLUS, don't those dancing coke cans cost less than $50? Yikes

The original effect, created by another person, and was published by in MUM magazine (I believe) around the 80's as a serious effect where the can remained crushed and was tossed out. Same method, but involved a mechanism to keep the can crushed and then a swap for a crushed can to toss out
A Modern Do it Yourself version is easily created using an Ink jet printer, glossy paper, and a scanner.

So does anybody own this?
It looks like a funny gag. But is it worth $50 bucks.

I found some good looking ones on eBay (here). If you understand the hook-up and what needs to be added , it is easy to make. Kevin James covers the effect in his Penguin lecture. |
