Absolutely hilarious!

Hey guys and gals!
Thanks for all of the kind words regarding my handling of the classic effect, Cannibal Cards. It took me a while to piece together this routine. As a matter of fact, I perform a second handling of this routine that is absolutely darker and is more story driven. This routine is very fun and I think has been pieced together in such a way to make room for all sorts of ideas to add to it!

Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas! (Just in case I forget later...)

And for anyone who wants to know where I got the inspiration for this effect...check THIS out:

A classic plot in magic is the Cannibal Cards. Originally developed by Lin Searles in the 1950′s, the effect has been a favorite among many of magic’s most respected creators. Tonight, we unveil a new spin on it by Mike Hankins.

Eugene Burger called it “wonderfully surprising with a perfect final line.” Deceptive, fun, and contemporary, this rendition of Cannibal Cards is streamlined and diabolical in presentation.

Four cards are violently devoured by the deck without mercy. Capped off a twist, surprise ending that will leave you speechless.

Special thanks to Bill Malone for his blessing and permission to include the first phase of this routine. Learn it now in 20 minutes of studio instruction.

i think you should mention when a gimmick is involved
