He slams his hand on all the five bags without the nail, leaving only the one with the nail. When lifting an object heavier than a few pounds, you want to lift with your legs instead of your back. This prevents back strain. Squat down and position your arms around the girl. Then, move upward, lifting your own body with your legs instead of your back.
He sets it on the table so the nail is pointed up. Then he covers the nail with a paper bag. He was a master magician who levitated just a few feet away from the audience, leaving the onlookers clueless as to how he did it. Explanation: Well, like every other magic trick, Angel used deception!
Angel removed one foot from the shell of his shoe and stepped upward with the now-concealed leg. Meanwhile, his pants-leg and shoe remain behind. This again was made popular by Criss Angel, who even made it look convincing by dropping his show to the bottom to show that there's nothing but water below him.
Explanation: Angel was in fact walking atop plexiglass pillars! Plexiglass has a refractive index that's very similar to water's and is nearly invisible in water. How many of you remember David Blaine pushing a card through a window?
I always wondered how he did it, till I read an article that explained his modus operandi. Explanation: Such a trick requires the participation of another person with an identical deck of cards on the other end of the window.
As part of the act, the volunteer shows the card to everyone but the magician. In the act, the partner on the other side of the glass gets to see it to, who slaps the card against the glass, making it seem like impromptu street magic. Source: HalifaxVideos. Ever seen a person being hacked by a guillotine, yet escaping unscathed? It's just a smart trick employed by magicians to entertain the audience.
Explanation: While the upper part employs a real, deadly blade like the one used in a real guillotine , the lower part has secret compartments. In the Zig-Zag illusion, a magician divides his or her assistant into thirds, only to have the assistant emerge from the illusion at the end of the performance completely unharmed. Since its invention in the mids by magician Robert Harbin, it has been hailed as one of the greatest illusions ever invented due to both the apparent impossibility of the trick, and the fact that unlike many illusions it can be performed surrounded by spectators and withstand the scrutiny of audience members.
Because of the manner in which the illusion is achieved, it is generally performed with a female assistant, and there are limitations on her height and weight. Some of these issues are overcome in Modern Art, an illusion created by Jim Steinmeyer.
The assistant usually a woman is placed in an upright cabinet, her face, hands, and left foot visible through openings in the front of the cabinet. Large metal blades are inserted horizontally in the cabinet's midsection, dividing it—and presumably the assistant inside—into thirds.
The magician then slides the cabinet's midsection apart from the top and bottom thirds, giving the appearance that the assistant's midsection has been pulled away from the rest of her, giving her a "zig-zag" shape. While divided, a small door on the cabinet's midsection can be opened to examine—even touch—the assistant's body inside, a duty frequently performed by an audience member brought up on stage to help perform the illusion. At the completion of the illusion, the assistant's midsection is slid back into place, the two blades removed, and she steps out of the cabinet unscathed.
In recent years, following exposure of the basic illusion by the Masked Magician , a number of magicians have begun performing variations on the basic illusion. In some, rather than the assistant's face being visible through a hole in the front of the cabinet, their entire head projects out of the cabinet through a hole in its upper surface.
In another variation, rather than being divided into three pieces, the assistant is instead divided into five - This variation is commonly referred to as the "Five-Way Zig-Zag".
The trick hinges on two things: People will not suspect the woman is actually responsible for the trick, and the box is larger than it appears.
