This is one of the best releases Wayne has made. When he taught the explanation I couldn't help but laugh. It's so simple. I use this as a finale in a lot of my performances. Highly recommended and very effective.

Yes the method is very very simple, and with a little bit of practice you can start preforming. The improtant part is the psycology (I guess that says for all magic tricks), Dan and Wayne are a terrific team and they really take you into the effect and give you a lot of tips to preform it in the real world.

So, I decided to try it out on my friend. One afternoon, after a basketball game, I kept panting and told him that my head felt very strange, I also told him "my heart rate seems weird"... He fell for my bait and started taking my pulse, and man those reactions were...

Even before it stopped completely he was already shaking me and saying "John, JOHN, HEY, ARE YOU OK, PLEASE ANSWER ME...". I decided not to continue, and told him to bring me water. He came back with three bottles... all the while running. I had to let him take my pulse for the next three days...

So yeah, it works beautifully if you give it a little practice and the teaching is awesome. It is true you can get amazing reactions, so don't pass this up!

Well, the DVD cover does all of what it says. It teaches you how to give your audience the impression that you stopped your pulse.

The teaching was in depth. I laughed my head off when the method was revealed. The principle behind this is so simple that it leaves you room for your presentation. This effect can disturb your audiences depending on how you present it.

Daniel Garcia's contribution is the perfect follow up for Control. The watch stop effect can be used as a stand alone effect. You can tweak your presentation to achieve this.

Will I perform Control? Yes I would, but only after I find out how I could incorporate it into my act and personality.

This effect is practical and strong. I highly recommend it. Even though I don't perform it, the DVD is just fun to watch. Wayne Houchin and Daniel Garcia make a great team. I hope they do a project together.

Great effect, great DVD!
