Maxello Magic

One participant's page is torn into more than a dozen pieces to guarantee a random outcome by eliminating any bias resulting from the page layout. Obviously, every scrap has totally different printed content on both sides. While the mindreader's back is turned , the participant freely discards all but one piece which he holds between his forefinger and thumb for everyone (except the Mentalist) to see.

After verbally ensuring that the helper can read numerous words and phrases on the scrap of paper, and while the performer's back remains turned toward the participant, he says, "I am visualizing part of a word but it's somewhat obscured by your thumb. Move your thumb over, please. That's better. Would you please read for the first time that which Business Week printed on the piece of magazine page you chose. I believe the word " soared " was under your thumb. Is that correct?" He exclaims, " YES !"

Eye Candy's "gaffus" is sufficient for up to 100 performances.

The effect for the prop as supplied runs as follows. The performer shows a large wooden baton, with three cords running through it. At the end of each cord is a ball, two of which are of the same color (say red), and one a different color (say yellow). The performer shows the cords run freely through the holes, and the balls are securely tied on the cords. He claims he will make the ball jump from one cord to the other. He passes the baton behind his back, and the odd colored ball jumps from one end (say left) to the other (right).

The audience is not impressed, they know you are just turning the baton around behind your back. You repeat this once again, and even the politest member of your audience will not hesitate to express their dis-enchantment. You appear offended at not be believed, and offer to prove conclusively that the balls do jump from one cord to the other. The baton is passed behind the back once again, and when brought to the front, the odd colored ball is now tied on the middle rope, between the two similar colored ones.

The model we supply uses thick cords, and large balls, making it very visible even on the larger stage. However, you can easily adapt the baton for use in any of the other presentations that have appeared in print. You could perform this with three large silks, two of the same color, and one a different color. In this case the silks could be examined, then passed through the holes in the baton (with the help of a pencil or slim magic wand) and knotted on top. A very clean cut presentation, not possible with the traditional Monkey Bar. You could use colored ribbons in place of the cords.

Another popular presentation has a set of linked rings from a Linking Ring set tied to two of the cords, and a single ring to the third cord. The linked rings are adjacent to each other at the start, and the single ring appears between them at the finish. Other presentations involve different a fish at the ends of the cords. The fish is at the end of the fishing line. You could use any toy (birds, a monkey, rabbit, or even glo-bugs or aliens) tied to the cords, depending on your presentation theme. A mechanical prop, very easy to use.
