"This finely machined effect is definitely one of my favorites. I take it everywhere. I showed a girlfriend of mine this trick 15 times and she was still begging to see it again. I even showed it to a magician in Turkey. He bought my personal copy after seeing it a dozen times!" -- Acar Altinsel, Penguin Magic
The Effect You show a small box--the kind that holds wooden matches. You take a toothpick and push it right through the box--from one side to the other.
Your spectators are still waiting for the amazing part...
With no funny moves, you open the match box and out on the table falls a large brass plate that completely fills the box! It lands with a loud clunk on the table!
There is absolutely no way that the toothpick could have fit through that match box with the brass plate inside... yet that is exactly what just happened. Very visual, very strong!

This trick is really great and it will fool everyone. The secret is very deceptive so you don't have to worry about people finding this out. Simply show a matchbox and push a toothpick through. Can't be more simple than that. Open the box and dump out the lead brick. The move is very very easy to do so it is great for beginners. If you like to carry around some extra stuff while you perform, then you should think about getting this one.

Best impromptu trick on the website
[Verified buyer] by Steve Greenfield from Atlanta, GA on 04/02/2010 20:51:49
I carry my Matchbox Penetration everywhere I go. I love showing it to engineers cause they just can't figure it out. This is self working and can be performed immediately out of the box, yet it has the biggest effect on the audience. I have had people try for hours to figure it out yes they can't. Great trick, put it in your cart NOW!

As Seen In Branson

A recent reviewer mentioned seeing a magician in Branson perform this trick. I am that magician. This has become one of my favorite close-up tricks because of it's great potential as a motivational tool. As with any good tricks, this can become not just a trick, but a miracle.

I voulnteer at a magic shop and I got to play with this effect and I was blown away by the method because you can hand everything out for examination yet this effect is gimmicked!! It is completely self contained but is gimmicked and nobody will see the gimmick when it's right in front of their face, you can have it right under their nose and they could be feeling for little trap doors all they want but there are none!
and share your thoughts with other magicians!
