The Magic Pea Can Revealed

Another fun trick from Penguin Magic!

This is a very fun and interesting magic trick to play around. The explanation to this trick is as below.

The Effect

A cork is removed from a small brass can and out onto the table drops a yellow pea, a black-eye pea, a green pea and a black pea. The spectator is asked to select one of the peas. The performer asks: “Would it be magic if the only thing that comes out is the pea you selected?” So, all of the peas are placed back into the can and sealed by the cork. The spectator begins to say out loud as instructed “I want my pea!” After the performer waves his or her hand over the can, the cork is removed and out into the spectator’s hand is poured warm water (which is mistaken as pee by the spectator).

Criss Angel Orange, Lemon and Egg Trick

Yet another fantastic great trick by the very best Criss Angel. You will see how Criss “embed” an egg inside an orange and then a lemon inside the orange.

Here is the video:

Well, great trick indeed but as far as I can say, the orange was prepped before hand (common sense). As for the rest of the trick, it involves sleight of hand and misdirection (Criss is an expert for such executions).

Cyril Takayama Performs at Metal Gear Solid 4 Launch

Matthew — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 06:50:39 +0000

Cyril has done it again with his trademark magic tricks. This time around, at the Metal Gear Solid 4 launch in downtown Tokyo.

He performed two of his trademark tricks which are “custom” card through glass and object pulling out from a surface.

This time the card through glass is actually through a LCD screen. We have seen before he executed similar trick on aquarium glass.

In another trick, he pulls a head band out from a game character through the LCD screen and later restore it.

As a whole, it’s great to watch! AMAZING!
