No slits! No thread! Take a borrowed Pad!

Borrow a paper pad (Post-it) and let the spectator sign the front page. After you draw the wrong card you add a few lines to make a box. Then the chosen card rises out of the drawn box. After that you rip of the signed paper and fold it (if you wish) and heat up with a lighter (you don't have to do this). When the spectator opens the paper, the card is gone. He could check the pad and keep all items as a souvenir! No threads, no slits! (like the first Version). If you follow the routine you end up clean. You can build the gimmick in a few minutes....

In this video you will learn folding techniques on how to make your own impossible folded cards and banknotes.

Hier erfahren Sie das Geheimnis wie man einen Golfball in eine Glas bringt das eine zu kleine Öffnung hat, ohne den Ball oder das Glas zu verletzen. Ralf Rudolph ist ein Meister der unmöglichen Objekte. Er beschreibt hier seine eigene Methode dieses Objekt herzustellen. Mit diesem Wissen können Sie so viele Geschenke wie sie wollen anfertigen. Sie brauchen dazu kein Spezialwerkzeug oder Chemikalien. Etwas Vorbereitung und das Know-How von diesem Ebuch und der Spass kann beginnen.

[Bitte beachten Sie dass der Hersteller des Glases das Ralf empfiehlt die Abmessungen geändert hat. Dadurch kann dieses Glas nicht mehr verwendet werden. Die Methode an sich bleibt weiterhin gültig, nur müssen Sie selber experimentieren und ein passendes Glas finden. Bzw. verwenden Sie eine verbesserte Methode die weniger von den genauen Glasmassen abhängig ist wie z.B. New Way Golf Ball in Glass.

[Note: An improved method has been released by Jerry Clowin in his New Way Golf Ball in Glass.

You will learn the secret of how to get a golf ball inside a glass with an opening smaller than the golf ball, without harming either the glass or the ball. Ralf Rudolph is a master of the impossible object. He describes his method of how to make such an object. Once you know how it is done you can make as many presents as you wish. No special tools are necessary. No chemicals are used. With a bit of preparation and the know how you can make something cool.

[Note that the specific German brand of glass Ralf recommends has changed its dimensions and thus it can't be used anymore. The method itself is still valid, but you will have to experiment and search yourself for a suitable glass. Or use the improved method referenced above, which does not depend as much on the glass dimensions as this method does.]

Sie lassen eine Spielkarte wählen und geben diese in das Spiel zurück. Der Zuschauer selbst darf das Kartenspiel mischen und auf dem Boden mit der Bildseite nach unten Ausbreiten. Sie geben nun vor die Karte ohne mit ihren Händen zu Berühren zu finden. Nun treten Sie mit ihrem Schuh fest auf die ausgebreiteten Karten und präsentieren dem Zuschauer eine Spielkarte welche sich unter ihrer Schuhsohle befindet. Doch leider handelt es sich nicht um die vom Zuschauer gezogene Karte. Doch kein Problem. Ein zweites Mal stampfen Sie mit ihrem Fuß auf dem Boden und heben ihren Schuh erneut hoch....

Let someone choose a card, and then put the card back in the deck. The spectator himself can shuffle the cards, and then lay them on the ground, face down. You now claim to find the card, without your hands touching them. Now you step on the cards on the floor, and show the spectator a card, which is underneath your shoe. But It is not the card the spectator has chosen. But no problem. You step a second time on the floor, lift up your shoe, and now the card has turned into the one, chosen by the spectator!

You require:

1. A Reel with a break
2. Some double sided scotch tape
3. Some magician...

Give the cards away as a Souvenir. They will find nothing. Perform it close up and stand up. The gimmick is easy to build.

A bottle label magically penetrates the glass and is attached on the inside of the bottle.

Effect: Write down a prediction, for example a playing card. Since you have no piece of paper you write the prediction on the label of a cola bottle. Then have a spectator take a card from your deck (yes folks, you will need to force the card). And then reveal that you have correctly predicted the card. To give the spectator a little souvenir you sign the bottle label. On further thought you want to make it even more special. Take out your lighter, burn the label and suddenly the label with the prediction...

You show a little notepad where an empty drawn window is depicted. Have a spectator pick a card and mentally tear off a corner. You now throw or cascade the cards towards the notepad and suddenly the chosen card is seen behind the window. However, a corner is missing. Snap your fingers over the missing corner and it appears behind the window.

Ideal for strolling and street magic.
