 BACK IN PRINT! |
Chris Kenner's wacky, off the wall, and insanely informative book Totally Out of Control is back in print! This book not only teaches you some magician fooling magic, but entertains you along the way. This hard bound book contains puzzles for the reader to solve on the way to learning this priceless material. There are thirty truly amazing effects that are explained both verbally and visually. |
"Totally out of control has some really hard stuff in it, however, it is really visual and reading that book is entertaining. The hard stuff in Totally Out of Control is well worth the wait to get it down..ITS THAT VISUAL. Kenner does have a few things in it that are not that hard, like Ten City( but it is still very visual!"

Don't let this price fool you. The Art of Astonishment series is a MUST HAVE for all magicians! Whether you're a beginner or a pro, this book has something for everybody. It contains such classic tricks as:
- Cros Twist
- Las Vegas Leap
- Think Of A Card
- Unshuffling Rebecca
- Invisible Rising Card
- Torn & Restored Coin
It even has my personal favorite packet trick of all time, Re-Set!! Honestly folks, I bought this entire book myself just to learn this one trick! It just so happens that the book is packed with so many other show stopping effects that you will not regret adding it to your collection.
The book is a hardback copy, very durable, and easily illustrated. Not to mention, Paul Harris is one funny individual, scattering his humor throughout the text.
"IF YOU DONT OWN THOSE YOU SHOULD DIE! AOA, is like a bible of creativity! It has some really hard hitting magic that is creative, and many different skill levels."

"This is a superior product on many levels and a delightful change of pace from standard magic video fare." |
In October 2002 the ten-man team of Germany's best close-up magicians known as "The Flicking Fingers" set out on a ten-day tour for a number of public shows and convention appearances. Lucky for us, they were accompanied by a professional film crew and the result is The Flicking Fingers Movie-a DVD like no other you have ever seen.
Follow the Flicking Fingers on their incredibly entertaining European road trip. Meet the goofy Gisbert and Gimmick-Man, watch magic TV ads and many more surprises! The Movie contains over 20 terrific routines, tricks, and moves showcased in a 2 1/2 hour road movie including the most entertaining explanations ever seen on a magic DVD and one hour of bonus materials like: the FISM acts of Pit Hartling, Jorg Alexander, Nicolai Friedrich, Thomas Fraps and more, plus out-takes, trailers and much more.
The Flicking Fingers is a team of ten of Germany's best close-up magicians, known to the magic community most from their unforgettable FISM '97 group lecture, as winners of Seigfried and Roy's 1998 Sarmoti Award and from their highly acclaimed "The Book-or don't forget to point" published in 1998. In October 2002 the team set out on a ten-day tour with a number of public shows and convention appearances. They were accompanied by a professional film crew and the result is this truly unique DVD.
