Bob Cassidy – Mind Burners: Unleash the Power of Mentalism
Dive into the captivating world of mentalism with Bob Cassidy’s Mind Burners. This comprehensive guide, enriched with color photographs and instructional videos, brings to life two of Bob’s most extraordinary routines from his professional repertoire.
“The Manchurian Gambit”: A Journey into Psychic Brainwashing
Experience the eerie beauty of “The Manchurian Gambit”, a routine inspired by Richard Condon’s novel and John Frankenheimer’s iconic 1962 film, The Manchurian Candidate. This performance piece showcases a participant unknowingly executing the mentalist’s psychic commands, blending amazement with humor to create an unforgettable spectacle.
“A Place to Die For”: Decoding the Ancient Secrets
Uncover the mysteries of the past with “A Place to Die For”. This routine allows a spectator to choose a city randomly, while the mentalist astounds by revealing both the city and a dice number, all without the use of forces or gimmicks. It’s a modern mental miracle rooted in ancient wisdom.
Bonus Feature:
- “Mind Burn”: Discover the phenomenon of pyrokinesis, where the mind influences fire. This special effect, utilizing a PK type magnet, enables you to effortlessly extinguish a candle flame, leaving your audience in awe. Everything remains examinable post-performance, adding to the mystique.
Originally published in 2003, this first edition spans 24 pages and includes 2 WMV video clips, making it a must-have for both aspiring and seasoned mentalists.
Mind Burners – illustrated with color photographs and videos of each critical move, features two completely routined performance pieces from Bob’s own working repertoire. “The Manchurian Gambit” is a demonstration of “psychic brainwashing”, based on Richard Condon’s novel and John Frankenheimer’s 1962 film classic, “The Manchurian Candidate”. An audience member, completely unaware of what he or she is doing, follows the mentalist’s psychic commands. Not only completely amazing, this is one of the funniest and most memorable routines Bob has ever performed.
In “A Place to Die For” an ancient secret provides the key to a modern mental miracle. A spectator rolls a die and concentrates on any city of his or her choice. The mentalist reveals the number on the die as well as the selected city. There are no forces, special gimmicks or impression devices used.
A special bonus effect, “Mind Burn”, rounds out this package. It illustrates “pyrokinesis”, the power of mind over fire. If you have ever used a PK type magnet, this will be of special interest to you. I’ll bet you didn’t know that it was possible, and quite easy, to extinguish a candle flame with a hidden magnet. The effect is positively eerie and everything may later be thoroughly examined if you so desire.
