Match Box Penetration - Trick

Effect

A match box is pierced by a needle threaded with a ribbon in front of the audience. The performer pierces the cardboard match box from one side to the other without any difficulty. The ribbon goes through the box and a spectator can be asked to check it by pulling the thread through. The ribbon comes out of the other side, and the performer gives the box to the audience to be opened. Big surprise! When opening the box, they will find a bronze block of the same size as the box.

The effect is both spectacular and incomprehensible. The needle actually crosses the box through the center. It is a perfect little magic item accurately manufactured. The metal block is 130 gr. and when the performance is over it can be given to the audience to be examined.

Comes complete with matchbox, bronze block, needle, ribbon and instruction sheet.
