Unleash Astonishing Finger Magic with 'Magic Video - Fracture'
Prepare to confound and captivate your audience with 'Magic Video - Fracture' by the ingenious Joe Rindfleisch. This isn't just a magic trick; it's an impromptu, prop-free masterpiece that leverages the natural human aversion to pain and impossible body contortions. Using nothing but your own fingers, you'll perform a series of visually shocking illusions that will have spectators gasping, screaming, and squirming in their seats. Joe Rindfleisch has crafted a routine so visceral and powerful, it transcends typical card or coin magic, striking a deep, emotional chord.
Experience the Four Phases of Pure Astonishment
The 'Fracture' routine is a meticulously designed four-phase sequence, each building upon the last to create an unforgettable experience. However, the true beauty lies in its versatility: each phase is strong enough to stand alone, allowing you to 'fry' onlookers with quick, impossible feats anytime, anywhere. Let's explore the pain-inducing journey your audience will witness:
- Windup: Watch as your fingers seemingly spin independently, like the hands of a clock, defying anatomical possibility.
- Limber: Your thumb will bend into an impossible, agonizing position, appearing to 'break' before miraculously repairing itself before their very eyes.
- Break: Prepare for jaws to drop as your index finger twists into perfect right angles, a sight that looks genuinely painful and utterly impossible.
- Tip Twist: For the grand finale, you'll grab the very tip of your index finger and bend it to an extreme degree, creating an illusion so unsettling, your audience will involuntarily react with shouts and squirms.
A Deeply Emotional and Unforgettable Spectacle
What makes 'Fracture' so uniquely powerful is its ability to tap into the audience's innate understanding of the human body's limitations. When they see your fingers twisting and contorting into positions that should be excruciatingly painful, they become emotionally invested. The routine is deliberately uncomfortable to watch live, making it an incredibly memorable piece of magic that audiences will talk about long after the performance. This 30-minute instructional video from Meir Yedid Magic, originally released in March 2011, provides all the secrets you need to master these mind-bending illusions and leave a lasting impression.
Original Specs
Joe Rindfleisch has created an amazing impromptu routine that uses no props. Using your fingers alone you can perform an impossible looking routine that will make your audiences scream as they see your fingers spin and twist into impossible and painful contortions.
The four phase routine is devastating as a routine but each phase can also be performed as a separate piece to fry and entertain your friends and onlookers.
Windup: In phase one, each of your fingers appear to spin like the hands of a clock.
Limber: In phase two, your thumb is bent to an impossible position until it breaks. You then fix it so it can be used for the rest of the routine.
Break: In phase three, your index finger is turned into right angles.
Tip Twist: In phase four, you grab the tip of your index finger and bend it to such an extreme position your audience will scream and squirm.
These routines are very special. Since your audiences know the limitations of what a hand can do they get emotionally involved when they see this and can almost feel the pain. It is very uncomfortable to watch live and becomes a very memorable piece of magic.
