"I've had spectators come up to me and ask to see it again months after they saw it the first time." - Maxwell Murphy, Penguin Magic
The Effect A selected and signed card is lost in the deck. A spectator chooses a balloon and the magician holds it in his open hand. The magician slams the deck against the balloon and the deck literally becomes "sucked" into the balloon! The balloon is blown up and the cards are shuffled around inside. The magician now pinches the selected card through the wall of the balloon and visibly pulls it through to the outside! The balloon with cards and the signed selection are immediately given out as souvenirs of this truly remarkable magic experience!
Performed by David Copperfield.

This is probably Sankey's MOST popular effect of all time, all things considered. Criss Angel, Jay Sankey and David Copperfield have all performed this on national television.
That, in of itself, should be enough to convince you to buy this. If it isn't, keep reading.
The effect, as you can see, is incredibly powerful to magicians and laypeople alike. There is tons of versatility, and a LOT of opportunity for creative input. In addition, after starting and doing the set-up, you are COMPLETELY set to perform this whenever, wherever you want.
That however, is the only flaw. This effect does have a lengthy and challenging set-up. This IS hard to do at first, but after a lot of practice and doing it over and over, it becomes easier and easier. The set-up is well detailed in the booklet that comes with the trick.
The reason, however, for this receiving five stars regardless of the lengthy set-up, this is still a powerful effect. Also, with enough practice (which should go into all magic routines) even the one flaw (the set-up) goes away and becomes second nature.
Highly recommended.

One of his best.

Airtight is probably one of Sankey's best effects. It is utterly impossible and very logical. If you can find the clip of David Copperfield performing this then that'll be all you need to persuade you to buy this!

Great Effect

Awesome effect to perform close up, or stage. Also great for TV. Such an impossible feat. Putting a FULL deck INSIDE a balloon and then pulling a SIGNED card out of the balloon. Totally a shocker and a mind blower. ADD TO CART NOW!

Airtight indeed

This particular effect packs a pretty big punch. I have performed this for friends and family and they were blown away. After a minimal amount of set-up, you are ready to go. Everything is examinable in the end too, and if you're really generous, you can even hand it out as a souvenir. If you're looking for something new and fun, then Airtight is a great choice. Great for parties too!

This is one of my best purchases I have ever made. This effect is killer for magicians and laymen alike.
If you want to truly blow your spectators mind pick this up.
For 10$ you get the instuctions and balloons it is a great deal.
If there is 1 effect I like the most from Jay Sankey it may be this one.
I remember showing this to a spectator, and the guy freaked out he instantly booked for an upcoming party, it was awesome.
Thank you Jay
and share your thoughts with other magicians!
