Suitcase conversion to rolling stage table - a Suitcase Table for magicians who fly to their performance.

If you fly to your performance, and if you need to fit as many props into your check-in luggage as possible given modern weight and size restrictions (62" and 50 pounds for example), then this suitcase table is for you.

This suitcase table system is the best in the world. It uses the latest regulation size suitcase by Samsonite (or any four wheel "clamshell" of your choice) and alters it into a rolling magician's suitcase table. The final suitcase table converts from a suitcase to...

A method in mentalism so bold you will never believe it works – unless you have the balls!

So what is Balls?

Basically it is a no-budget version of the famous Master Prediction System, that everybody loves but only the pros are able to afford:

A sealed cardboard box is seen standing in full view or hanging from a stand – it can also be given to an audience member at the beginning of the show. Random people call out random things: dates, the amount of money in their pocket, holiday destinations – whatever you (or they) like.

The box is retrieved and opened by a spectator. Inside...

Eine mentalmagische Methode, von der Sie nie glauben würden, dass sie funktioniert – es sei denn Sie haben die „Eier dazu in der Hose“!

Was also ist Balls?

Im Grunde handelt es sich dabei um eine No-Budget Variante des berühmten Master Prediction Systems, das alle unheimlich toll finden, sich aber die wenigsten leisten können:

Ein versiegelter Pappkarton steht in voller Sicht auf der Bühne oder hängt an einem Ständer – er kann auch zu Beginn einem Zuschauer übergeben werden, der darauf aufpasst. Zufällig ausgewählte Zuschauer nennen völlig beliebige Dinge: Daten, den...

"It's hard to find a new plot in magic or mentalism but Stefan has cracked it with his EGGstremely Dangerous routine. I can't wait to put this into an act. It will play well with all ages." - Wayne Rogers

"If you are looking to add some great comedy to your mentalism act, then look no further. This is one of the funniest mental routines I have seen. It is sure to please any audience." - Devin Knight

"Really, really nice: Entertaining, easy to do, and direct to the point! The kind of things I like!" - Luca Volpe

One of the first effects by Stefan Olschewski that were released to the magic market – finally available for instant download.

An easy, small mental effect to take with you wherever you go. Entertaining and just a little bit different.

You show an envelope to the audience containing one single card as your prediction. A spectator is asked to keep the envelope. A second spectator chooses one card from a packet of ten. The funny thing is: all card faces are all the same, showing, for example, the 8 of Hearts. When the envelope is opened, the card inside also is the 8 of Hearts, of course. ...

Ein einfacher, kleiner Mentaleffekt zum "Immer-dabei-haben". Verblüffend und ein kleines Bisschen anders:

Sie zeigen dem Publikum einen Umschlag mit einer Vorhersage, die ein Zuschauer an sich nimmt. Nun darf ein weiterer Zuschauer sich aus einem Päckchen mit Karten eine Karte aussuchen. Der Witz dabei: Alle Karten sind gleich, jede Karte ist z.B. eine Herz 8! Wenn der erste Zuschauer die Vorhersage aus dem Umschlag nimmt, stimmt diese mit der gewählten Karte überein, es ist ebenfalls eine Herz 8.

Der Effekt kommt aber erst, nachdem sich das Gelächter der Zuschauer gelegt hat. Sie...
