Uncover Secrets with HUMINT by Phill Smith
Dive into the fascinating world of human intelligence and perception with HUMINT, an exceptional mentalism tool by Phill Smith. This isn't just a trick; it's an immersive experience designed to convince your audience you possess an extraordinary talent for discerning truth from deception. HUMINT provides a powerful, logical framework for any 'Truth or Lie' routine, making the impossible seem like a genuine skill. Imagine captivating onlookers as you seemingly develop the acuity of a seasoned interrogator, revealing hidden thoughts with uncanny precision. This digital download combines a striking custom prop with a brilliantly simple, yet profoundly effective, method.
The Core Prop & Ingenious Method
At the heart of HUMINT lies a meticulously designed 30mm brass-finish coin. One side boldly proclaims 'Tell A LIE,' while the other states 'Tell The TRUTH,' instantly establishing the premise for your performance. This elegant prop serves as a focal point, providing a clear and logical context for your audience to engage with. The accompanying routine masterfully simplifies the art of '20 Questions,' a technique used by real interrogators. Participants secretly choose any object, then respond to your inquiries by flipping the coin: if it lands 'Truth' side up, they give the real answer; if 'Lie,' they deliver a convincing falsehood. Despite the deceptive responses, after just three or four carefully structured questions, you'll astound them by revealing their exact thought.
Effortless Mastery & Comprehensive Support
Phill Smith's HUMINT system is engineered for ease of learning and flawless execution. The method is entirely sleightless, gimmickless, and structurally invisible, meaning anyone can perform this incredible feat with minimal practice. Your digital download includes not only a high-quality, physical brass coin but also blank cards and a practice band to refine your presentation. Furthermore, you'll gain access to a comprehensive PDF explanation and a video tutorial that clearly demonstrates every nuance of the routine. Transform your mentalism performances and leave your audience believing in your unique ability to navigate the complex landscape of truth and lies.
Original Specs
Interrogators prize two skills above all others: the ability to detect lies, and the talent to identify the truth that lies behind them. HUMINT holds the secret to developing these amazing skills... or so it seems!
HUMINT is a powerful prop, bundled in with an incredible method. The core prop is a 30mm brass finish coin, beautifully designed and manufactured - one side bears the legend Tell A LIE, the other side says Tell The TRUTH. The coin is intended to be integrated seamlessly with any Truth or Lie routine, providing a strong focus to the audience members and creating a logical context.
The routine that is bundled details a cut-down version of 20 questions used by trainee interrogators to learn to tell truth from lie. The punters write down ANY object on the surface of the Earth, and you explain the rules - you will ask a series of questions, and with each question they are to think of the real answer, then flip the coin. If it lands Truth side up, they give you the real answer -- if it lands LIE side up, they give you a convincing lie instead. The questions are fun, and fast, and after only three or four you are able to reveal the truth of what they are thinking.
Packed in with the coin are blank cards and a band to practice the method, as well as a download link to a PDF explanation and video of the simple, sleightless, gimmickless and structurally-invisible method.
