I disagree. I think its even stronger when placed in the box, so its isolated, and you cant fumble with sleight of hand (as told to the audience).

James, I didn't think of the " isolate the deck" angle. That would make it quite strong. In fact, it makes the whole routine make more sense.
The card keeps coming to the top. " I want you to see exactly how the card comes to the top. We'll isolate the deck in it's box". Wow, thanks!!!!!

Wasn't that Daryl's motivation for wrapping the deck in a rope for his Ultimate Ambition Finale? Just want to make sure the proper credit is given.

With my impromptu rising card, my motivation for placing the deck into an envelope and sealing it was just that, "so I cannot do any sleight-of-hand."
Gads that must have been 30 years ago.

I sit corrected. I knew I couldn't trust that Daryl. Look how sneaky he looks on his 300 video covers.

"Wasn't that Daryl's motivation "
So? Some of us came up with that independentley. I don't think you need to credit a phrase which is quite obvious may I add.

I watched the video of "Elevator" and don't think much of it. I figured it out right away and presume anyone with half a brain will too. I'm staying away from this one.

So, are you saying that everyone who has seen the video and found it deceptive has less than half a brain? That those who have been privvy to see it live and found it deceptive have half a brain?
Are you sure your assumed method is accurate? Could your supposition be wrong, thereby making you of the mass with half a brain? Greg, Pete, what do the other half brainers out there think? |

Apparently my half brain has the strength of two regular brains. Now I just have to stay away from the Kryptonite.
Greg P.S. I suggest Tdowell PM a few from this group with his solution... if, when this product comes out, it is discovered he is right then Hip-hip-hooray for him, but if he was wrong... well, I would suggest buying him a smaller hat.

It obvious. First the jigulatorr disfusses the scalming and then slides up the slingderiffy. I was using just a qicttes of my brain.
PS for those with a half of brain like me ....... its so easy. I agree this is the perfect ending. |

It is a no brainer. Don't buy it. Then I'll have the only one.

I'm not going to argue with anyone about this or reveal the secret, or glorify certain comments from upset members here.
I will suggest that perhaps the card never moves from its position in the deck. Something else may be moving though. What appears to be added may not be what it appears to be. The box flap appears suspiciously open. Is something going on behind it? Hmmmm.... By the way, I was wondering if anyone has seen my Exit 51 lately? |

I wonder why, when a magician can figure a trick out, he automatically classifies it as being 'bad' and 'not worthy'.
WE ARE MAGICIANS - this is our speciality! We are educated in this field! OF COURSE we know a few things that most don't, that's what makes us who we are. Remember, we aren't performing for ourselves here. Take care, Logan
