The Final Straw by Graham Hey

Description

The Final Straw – a very clever mentalism effect. Five different colored straws in a cocktail glass. One straw contains a rolled-up gift voucher for the holiday of a lifetime and a year’s supply of cocktails. All the others contain a note which says ‘you lost!’ Spectators select any 4 colored straws (no forcing) the contents of each straw is pushed out … and they all lose. The remaining straw has the winning gift voucher. This is so clever and virtually self-working. You’ll need to buy some straws – you should have everything else you need. As usual with Graham’s effects, they are easy to perform and great value. Original comedy lines included.

Also included is the trick: The Full English! A self-worker with a big impact. Take a pile of cards from the box and show the audience a few cards on which are written several items required to make a ‘Full English’ breakfast: Egg, Bacon, Frying Pan, Sausage, Oil, Mushrooms, Tomato, etc. etc. The spectator selects a card. Let’s say they select Frying Pan. You then hold the card box over their hand, do a magical gesture – and then a miniature Frying Pan falls onto the spectator’s hand.

As an extra bonus, Graham has included two more of his original visual gags which are great for close-up or stand-up. Great stuff!
