This trick is awesome! I've shown it to a number of my friends and they were freaked out as soon as the reveal happened. :)

Got this effect about a year ago. With very little practice, I was out there performing this trick. It is very simple, but highly visual. I've strung it as an ender for both a routine, as well as a big finisher for my show. Worth every penny.

I just got this effect today and after quite literally 10-15 minutes of practice, this effect was up and running.
This trick is stunningly simple and visual. I can tell you now that this effect will definitely be used often as opposed to just sitting on a shelf. Lee Asher has some great tips and advice on this trick as well as a handy cleanup move at the end.
If you're indecisive about buying this effect, go for it. In my opinion, it is well worth the money.

My first download from theory11. It's a good trick - so simple, yet the effect is so strong!

This is a great effect. It is the first effect I have done completely surrounded. At the end of the effect people started calling their friends and family members from their cellphones.
As for the skill level... Well let's just say I learned it in ten minutes and performed it like a pro, so imagine how easy it was to learn it. It is a very easy to do effect and Lee Asher is an excellent teacher. He's funny and friendly. He teaches you how to do it step by step.
For those thinking of buying this trick: Don't think twice, buy it now! I really recommend this whether you are a novice or a pro.
Do it - you won't regret it.

Amazing. It's so easy to learn and so perfect to perform - even surrounded. It hits so hard... I just recently performed it for around 50 people at a party and I was the man the whole night.

One of my first purchases from T11. For a little background I've been performing for more than two years, which for me is a long time. I've got some experience under my belt.
The Video:
Shot in high definition, pristine quality and sound! I got the dvd, so I can't speak for the download, but if the dvd is any indication, the quality of the download would be fantastic as well.
All of the important angles are shot clearly, which is really the most important part of a teaching dvd.
The Teaching:
I love Lee's personality. It's engaging, welcoming, and friendly. He covers all the nuances of the trick, and adds personal input which will help build my performances of this effect.
Overall:
Witness is definetly worth the money! It's good for beginners and advanced people alike, and it gets great reactions! The only downside I can think of is that there's only one performance on the DVD.
7/10 - Good!

Wow! what an awesome effect. My first performance got me such an awesome reaction. One of my favorites.
Steve • London • 01/27/08
My first download from T11 and very and very impressed. Great trick, explained not just clearly but with the subtle nuances that MAKE it so strong all highlighted properly. Definitely pairable with Indecent ("hey folks, guess what i do if i forget to put the joker in the bag? here let me show you...")
Love the fact he offers to give tips to those that upload a performance vid.
Well worth it.

Great effect very easy to do . Everything looks natural worth every penny. Buy it now!
Michael • Los Angeles, CA • 12/02/07
I owned Lee's lecture notes containing the original "deuce bag." Then I purchased Witness and hit the streets... IT KILLS. Buy it now.
Kevin • Los Angeles, California • 11/15/07
Witness is a great effect which I perform almost daily. It's so simple yet the audience will be stunned at the way is presented and how totally impossible it looks. The effect is worth every penny even if you already own the lecture notes like me.
Denny Z. • Cleveland, Ohio • 11/13/07
This trick is fantastic: it always gets great reactions.
Calen • Boardman, Oregon • 11/12/07
This effect is simple and hard hitting. I carry this effect around with me everywhere. Thank you Lee Asher.
Mats • Norway • 11/06/07
This is an awesome effect. Easy to learn and people will be amazed when you are done. Lee Asher explains it really well and gives some great advice on how to create the magical moment.
Jack • Missouri • 11/05/07
All I can say is wow. I bought this effect as my first from theory11 and it won't be my last. Anyone could do the moves, but as Lee pointed out, it's selling the effect that is true magic. Mr. Asher teaches everything you need to know and teaches it so well that it feels like he's getting ready to do a trick on you. Great DVD, great effect. Get it now.
Travis • Maine, USA • 11/02/07
Amazing effect. So simple yet so powerful. Lee teaches everything GREAT, and goes over every piece step by step. There is also a beginners section on the DVD to help you with what you should do when you are first starting. Add to cart! 5 / 5.
Clarrus • Long Island • 10/31/07
This is a great trick. Well worth the cost. Trust me, I'm a college student right now and I pick and choose what to spend my money on wisely. This is a great trick.
Definitely worth buying, and Lee Asher is a very very sick man!
Garrett P. • Burton, MI. • 10/31/07
WOW! All i can say is that it is so EFFECTIVE, yet so easy and simple. You will learn this right away. Amazing trick. BUY IT!
Aris F. • Venezuela • 10/31/07
Add to cart now! The method is simple and the reaction and the EFFECT are strong-- VERY strong. Its very well explained. Loved the performances. 5/5.
It requires no palming, nothing-- it's just SIMPLE. Like Lee said, the only thing you have to worry about is about the performance.
