ok.. I was walking today.. and saw a small group of kids, one was about age 4, and the other two were about 8. so i walked up to them.. and asked " wanna see some magic". they replied: "ok", "ahh, seweet!", and "sure".
I started with an ACR, but flash at first doing the top change, to make them feel at advantage. one kid (8 year old) immediately heckled me after the reveal. I said"ok, you think that's what i did". so i went for the 1for1 switch, and did the outjogged hermann shift, they were amazed. after that, I went into Stigmata (thanks Wayne). That was the closest thing to real magic, that I've tried on a live audience.. classic force. turned my back. let the games begin. i had the 4 year old rub my arm, then he saw it start coming into focus. he screamed, and was just like "OMGWTFBBQROFL". then the other kids were the same. then i shut up for about a minute to build up the reaction..it felt good. after that, i went into Ed Marlo's Miracle Switch (an inpromtu Here Then There) and i had the kid steop on my tallys (good thing they were used, and not my good deck ) so i went on that he had the 7S, and i still had the 4C. i rubbed his foot, and said "your card penetrated all the way throught you shoe" he was like."no it didnt". i asked him to lift his foot, then he was like "now i have the 4." he wasnt very suprised at first, but the others were. then he started to laugh. then for my closer, i went into. Impromt Card at Any Number (basically, spectator picks a card, then you lose[it in the pack *wink**wink*, and have them call out any number between 5 and 40, in this case, he named 32. ) I asked him to hold both hands out, as i counted off 31 cards. then i dealt the 32nd. i asked them what it was, the replied"king of diamonds". me:"really", "because look, you did the magic all by yourself!" then they all started screaming, and the little guy even said that i should be on channel 49, whatever that means, but it must be good. but everyone of them was just like OMG. after that. as i started to walk away, they kept yelling to me "i liked your performance", THANKS", "your the best magician ever".
It made me feel good on the inside, and i just told them"tell all of your freinds"lol. but i lastly told them that "you can do, and become anything you want to be. just believe in yourself".
