Hi Everyone,
I am going to be up front with you and tell you that I am going to be biased about what I am going to tell you. Of all the effects that I do, this effect sets me apart from a lot of magicians that spectators see live in person. They tell me that they see magic here and there, but nothing ever like this. I'm talking about Steve Fearson's Floating Cigarette. This is a gem, something I only want to selfishly keep to myself. Wayne Houchin also makes reference to this effect but with a banknote as an opener to draw in spectators instead of walking up and choosing your spectator on his daily updates (Very valuable relevent info for workers. Check it out). I have had only hysterical, insane reactions from it. I will post a video soon of it. It almost feels like I've entered another realm of magic in the minds of spectators, that cards and coins has not yet reached. It is visual. There's a beginning, a middle and a finale which follows with roaring applause, I kid you not. I have performed this several times already at parties, weddings and even inside the VIP of a club. People will remember you forever. It feels like I'm writing a review, but I feel that passionately about this effect. So yeah, I don't have the Master Levitation DVD, but it looks like the SFFC is on there, and he is certainly credible with how well his effects that effect played out. I would love to see what kind of additions he's made to the hookup. Tarantula looks cool too, but I would go with Steve Fearson's Master Levitation since I've had only tried and true wonderful experiences with his FC.
PS: Just a little story to go along with this. It was an awesome moment:
This year I was performing closeup magic for some random spectators. After everything was done, one of the first thing she says is how she remembers this one trick last year at a particular night club, of a guy who did this flying cigarette thingy. It was so amazing to her and she knew it happened but she's almost unsure if it did happen and when she tells people about it, no one believes her that it did happen. I guess she had a lot drink or its been too long because she didn't even recognize that it was me, that I was that very person that she was giving her testimony about. No word of a lie! To me, that was just a beautiful moment that I will always cherish in my life.
Now I just gotta make sure that the spectators remember my name!
All the best folks!
