This is a great Idea, and I think in the future this principle will be used to make some unreal
effects and advance closeup magic as much as the thumb tip, but right now it just isn't there. I
hate to give such a poor review to something that I honestly believe will change everything in the
future, but this product doesn't deserve anything more.
It came in the mail and I watched the
DVD right off, it looked amazing, but the gimmick could easily be seen in the tutorials. I thought
that it was just because I knew what to look for, or the lighting was done so that it could be
seen(for instructional purposes), but then I got my own gimmick out and started to use it...
First off, it was almost impossible to construct, and then, after I finished, It wasn't even
usable. It was highly visible to me, but after a lot of practice and under carefully controlled
lighting, I showed it to my girlfriend. She saw the gimmick and explained how I did the trick in
just a couple of seconds. I didn't want to give up on it that easily though so I performed it five
or six other times for different people and every one had the same response.
Absolutely unreal
idea, utterly abysmal practicality.
DO NOY BUY THIS, but keep an eye out for a hidden hand 2.0,
because with some modifications this could be a game changer.
I got this 2 days ago, spent all night in front of a mirror. The next day went to work and blew the minds of every co-worker. I even used a cigarette and made it disappear. No one seen anything. Maybe practice some more. If you must, youtube some fishing knots if the ones from the dvd are not working for you. Maybe try the two handed vanishes if you are more worried about angles. Hope you perfect it and get joy out of this trick.
So much potential, but a failure.
