Money Magic, Live (Extreme Burn)

Please read this before watching.

So this is a very short performance of Extreme Burn from back at my birthday (T11 member, BenjaminD is behind the camera). We asked the guy if he wanted to see magic and his response was, "Really quick!!!", hence the fast performance .

Anyhow, just wanted to share the video with you guys.

Oh and P.S., I have a very funny clip of me getting ready to perform this for an older gentlemen and him actually FALLING ASLEEP as we're walking up... Let me know if you guys would like to see it.

Great performance! That guy was CONFUSED! lol. I like the idea of doubling the money and using twos but i think it would be more powerful if you used a higher denomination, like 20's. IMO a large part of the reaction from the change is when the spectators immediatly see a large amount of money. That's why i think a larger sum would have been better.
As for performance wise alone, i thought it was very good. And even though you were rushed, it didn't come across as rushed(if that makes any sense). Hope that helps!

Hey, thanks man.

I agree that higher denominations would be far better, but 2's is about what I can manage right now... haha The cool thing about the 2's (that you can't see on the video) is that they are a brighter green than the 1's, so you get visible color change with it (much like the new high denomination bills). And many people have never even seen a 2 dollar bill to begin with, which is kinda cool.

Anyway, thanks for the kind words,
C

Ohhhh ok. Yeah i can see where that would definetly add to the change with the color. In that case stick to the twos.
And yeah an E.B gimmick with twenties is definetly a commitment. I'm still saving up to make one with twenties... if only i had more money. *sigh*. I'll just blame it on the economy. lol
