Could Anyone Help Me With Some Research on this Effect?

[James Smith]

I created an effect, and I've been doing some research on it. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of where to find some info on it:

Wasn't this from the SNC? It looks really good now.

I'm not familiar with this effect but I'm pretty sure it's been done before.


Why the crutches man? What happened?

This looks quite similar to an effect on Gregory Wilson's On the Spot dvd. I think the effect was called Florida Keys.

Yes, Greg does use the same principle with Florida keys. I doubt he is the creator of the idea tho. That one might be hard to trace back. If you don't already own it, On the Spot is a fantastic DVD, packed with stuff. His routine with the keys is fantastic.

it looks alot like gregory wilsons' florida keys but you have to keep in mind he shows his hands empty at the end .... that changes the hole trick really

ok after closer review it uses the same principle jaajjaja

That looks pretty cool, bit fishy. As for research google, The Magic Castle Library, Magic Magazine ask some people at the Magic Cafe.

This is actually an older video than the one that I used in DG's Creativity Challenge of Doom.

I have a partially torn Achilles tendon.

My hands are shown empty at the end as well.

Yes the key vanish looks a bit fishy, but it looks like it could be made to be smooth.

Here's a vid of GW Floriday keys: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2dIHhYDYCM&feature=related (first trick)

The idea has been done for a long time lol. Jay Sankey has probably the latest rendition in a way, with his SPOOKEY. I don't know why, but it reminds me of that. Of course there is Greg Wilson's florida keys. Also, you might want to check out the marionette vanish. I don't know where that is taught in print the first time, but Jay Sankey talks about it a bit in one of his DVDs. Then you can look at the striking vanish. T he actual "penetration" works by the same method pretty much.

I think that it is created by Mick Jagger.
