Ebook - Case 21 - Cards through Case by Ben Howard (Digital Download)
Description & Effect
An Impossible Visual Manifestation
Prepare to defy the laws of physics with 'Case 21' by Ben Howard, a revolutionary piece of card magic that transcends typical illusions. This isn't just a card trick; it's a profound visual experience. Imagine this: a spectator freely selects, signs, and returns their chosen card to a shuffled deck. The magician then cleanly displays an ordinary card case, showing all sides and confirming it's completely empty. Then, in a slow, deliberate, and utterly impossible manner, the entire deck of cards, held firmly, begins to visibly melt through the solid face of the card case. This isn't a quick flash; it's a mesmerizing, in-full-view penetration that will leave your audience questioning reality.
The Ultimate Spectator Experience
'Case 21' is designed for maximum impact, creating a genuinely miraculous moment that happens right before their eyes – sometimes even in their own hands. As the deck fully submerges into the case, one card remains resting impossibly on top: their signed selection! The visual absurdity of the deck passing through a solid object, followed by the revelation of their chosen card, creates a powerful, unforgettable memory. After the magic has unfolded, the deck can be immediately removed from the case and handed out for examination, leaving no doubt about the impossibility they've just witnessed. This deep level of spectator interaction and examinability elevates 'Case 21' far beyond a simple trick.
Master This Miraculous Moment
Ben Howard's 'Case 21' isn't just mind-blowing for the audience; it's a dream to perform. This ingenious method is completely angle-proof, meaning you can confidently present it in any environment, surrounded by spectators, without fear of exposure. The instruction provided in this digital download makes it surprisingly easy to learn, allowing magicians of all skill levels to master this profound illusion and add it to their repertoire quickly. If you're looking for a piece of visual magic that is unique, impactful, and leaves a lasting impression, 'Case 21' is an essential addition to your collection. Get ready to perform a truly impossible feat of card penetration that will be talked about long after the performance.
Original Specs
Effect:
This is not a card trick, it's a trick with cards.
The spectator freely selects, signs and returns the card from a shuffled deck. The Illusionist explains that card tricks have become too complicated, and he wants to keep it simple and use just the selected card. The Illusionist picks up the card case, still holding the deck, and shows the card case at all sides and completely empty.
The Illusionist then places the deck square on the face of the card case. The front of the card case can be clearly seen as the cards are being placed. The card case with the deck on top is placed on the spectators hand or on the table. As the Illusionist hold the sides of the deck, the deck of cards slowly MELTS through the face of the card case in full view. This can be viewed from ALL sides and angles in confidence. As soon as the deck is fully inside the case, there is one card resting on top of the case, the selected card.
The deck is then removed from the case and can be examined by the audience.
