This Simple To Learn Yet Shockingly Authoritative Magic Trick Will Have Them Questioning Reality Itself
Feb 18th, 2010 by Miles Sunkest

This classic magic trick is fairly easy to learn, yet will powerfully entertain any audience. This is an up close type of trick, so you can perform it for your friends, at a bar or at a party. It requires a bit of set up, but since you will be using pretty straightforward and everyday objects, this shouldn’t present a problem.

This is how your soon to be amazed friends will see it. You grab a seemingly partially crushed and empty soda can You show the audience that it’s empty but turning it upside down, and showing them open top. Then you hold it with your magical hands, and with your magical powers, you somehow use powers that break the laws of physics to bring this seemingly dead can of soda back to life.

You shake the can, and those already mesmerized by your gifts will hear the soda shaking inside the can. The can will mysteriously restore itself to its original shape. When you show them the top, they will see that it has not been opened. You simply open the top like any normal can of soda, and when they hear the familiar “pop,” they will gasp in amazement. You are now an established mentalist in the minds of your friends.

Here’s how to do the trick. First you get a regular can of soda. The first step is to get a piece of black paper, and cover up the lid, so that it will appear to be open when you show it to the crowd. Then you take a pen or something like a Phillips head screwdriver, and punch a hole about midway down the can. Pour out about half of the soda through the hole. Then crush the can slightly, and leave it off to the side, for you to “find” later.

When when you grab this seemingly empty can, you quickly show them the top, which they will be convinced has been opened. Then while covering the hole with your thumb, shake the can. The crowd will hear the sloshing, and see the can mysteriously come back to life. When you shake the can, the carbonation will “fizz” and expand the gas inside the can, which will reshape the can back to its original shape. Just be sure to flick aside the black piece of paper that was covering the top of the can, and then open it like normal. Be sure to cover the hole while you are pouring the drink out.

The angle is to give them an intriguing story while your setting this trick up, up to when you start to shake the can. When you do this, they’ll be following your words, and won’t even pay attention to the can until it’s too late. Everyone who see this trick is spellbound, as they try to figure out how you managed to break the laws of physics.

The Shocking Magician Who Made Me Question Veracity Itself
Jan 22nd, 2010 by Miles Sunkest

Last week I was shuffling down the street, trying my best to beat a hangover that was holding on for dear life. It was two in the afternoon, yet the cobwebs in my mind were refusing their grip on my sanity. Which is just as well, because what happened next surely destroyed plenty of my neural connections. I passed by this bookstore, and noticed this guy inside beckoning me to come in. Naturally, I complied.

This guy was doing some of the most incredible magic I’ve ever seen. When I walked in he was doing these wicked card tricks. He’d ask somebody to pick a card, and then have them show their friends, like normal. Only he’d have them put the card back in the deck, but then the card would show up in their sock or their wallet or something.

Then he switched into the psychic part of his routine, and this is where I could hear my brain sizzling. He would stare at somebody, read their mind, and then stare at somebody else, and download the first persons information into the second person. Then the second person, who didn’t know the first person, would start telling everybody secrets about the first person that even their best friends didn’t know.

After that, he settled back down into doing regular illusion type magic. Sleight of hand tricks, making stuff vanish, and they reappear in other places. One trick he did that I’m still trying to figure out is that he made everybody’s drink vanish. He would tell somebody to pick up their drink, and as soon as they put the glass other their mouths, the contents would be gone. He did this at least three different times with three different people.

I could only take so much of this before I had to go back outside. It was by far the most strangest magical experience I’ve ever come across in my short life. But just as I was about to walk down the street, I heard a voice behind me.

You must learn magic tricks! You must delve into the secret world of psychic tricks to uncover the mysteries of the unknown! They are depending on you! I wasn’t sure who “they” were, but that was enough to spook me for good. I ran out of there, and never came back.
