Impossible (Download Bundle)

Doug

Very clever...take a lot of practice...but the more practice the better

Lance

Great trick. Great instruction. Magician fooler for sure.

Erik

These effects are mind blowers, and the methods are so delightfully clever. That always makes an effect more fun for me to do — I’d say the methods are as cool as the effects themselves. And … they’re not hard at all. I’m not unused to finding that an effect is not as easy as advertised (for me at least). These are! Buy this. Learn these. You will be so happy that you did.

Luke

Love it. Ben’s a genius, I think we all know that by now ;)

Adam

I've been doing for magic over 20 years now and what I can say honestly is that I've never came across so excellent lesson and so beautiful method. Ben Earl's material is the Top Level magic and his way of explaining it is just top of the top. Excellence.

Erik

These are two truly “impossible” card routines, each of which hides its secret under thick blankets of “fairness.” In one case the card is freely selected and then cut and shuffled into the deck with what seems to be an incredibly fair process. In the other, it is the method leading up to the card’s selection that is almost ridiculously fair.

I have always loved tricks that have methods that are as fun for me as the trick (hopefully) is for the spectator. Both of these do — the secret for each is remarkably simple, but the presentation is ingenious. As an extra bonus, the interplay between the two gentlemen on the video is so delightful I’ve watched it more than a few times just to watch them!

Max

Probably my favourite impromptu card effect - thanks Ben!

Klaus

Red Hering is one of my favorite cardtricks

Tiago

Five stars all the way. I've been looking for strong concepts hidden inside simple effects and these two are it. And these concepts are not just for these two tricks, they can be used for so much more. Thank you, Ben and Vanishing Inc!

Francisco

This is great!!!

Alex

clever method easy to use, will be adding it too my routine's easy set up great for close up great work love to see more

Jarkko

very good teacher and easy to follow

Erik

I just got this today, and while I think I’ll need to spend a little time getting it down, I have a feeling I’ll be using one or the other of these all the time. For my money, though, the best thing about the video is watching the reactions of the guy for whom the effects are being done. If I could get even a 100th of that response I’d be well satisfied.

I love self-working card tricks or those that use little to no sleight of hand, particularly because I'm not good at sleights. This hands-off illusions are just awesome and exactly what I am looking to add to my repertoire. Thanks Vanishing!

John

Sneaky technique I have not seen before and can be used in conjunction with other tricks.

Stefano

David

Genius thinking on some classic techniques.

I purchased this bundle a while ago and waited til I performed it a bunch. The effects ramjollock and red herring are great. I have done something similar in terms of ramjollock so through trailer I enjoyed the added touches. The red herring is one of my favorite self-working tricks I do when I want to makes things look extremely fair after a few tricks to make it seem more magical. Red Herring states it all very clever.

Mark

Robert

Gerald

These effects are definitely designed to fool magicians rather than perform for laymen. The tricks are crazy smart and very simple to execute for a fooler. The only downside is these 2 tricks are so popular that most magicians would've known about them by now.

Kelly

Robert

Extremely clever. Impossible for the spectator to figure it out. The best part is that the spectator does all the work including shuffling. No slight of hand is necessary so all the magi's attention can be on performance, a great plus, since spectator management is important. Perhaps the only weakness is that this ends up being another "find a chosen card in the deck," rather than a more exciting conclusion. But it is a real fooler!

John

Loved the teaching, very clear & concise. Totally deceptive meat or & easy to do! 5 stars

David

So simple and so so great!!

Jonathan

This set of tricks is really impossible. I can usually catch moves and secrets pretty quickly but this one had me. I like the simplicity of both methods and the way it is both a spectator trick and a magician trick. It should be perfect for any card magicians (and possibly mentalists).

Jonathan

Ramjollock is an interesting trick that gives your audience the supposed control while you are in control for the entire effect. It appears that it can be done with fewer or more cuts and shuffles but, at some point, you really need to bring it to an end. I was fooled and I hope to be fooled still (until I learn Red Herring) I'll wait before watching it.

I thought Ramjollock was an interesting trick that gives your audience even more control of the deck. Red Herring is another one that can be done shorter or longer, so with your own presentation. I think I would've added another cut and/or shuffle just for the fun of it. I remained fooled until I finally watched the effect (just now) and feel this is one I can do. I think this one is much easier than Ramjollock and possibly even more impressive.

Carl

This really is an amazing piece of magic. Gives such an impact. A little knacky but wow, confuses people every time.

Michael

I am new to Ben Earl and I have say, I'm now a fan. What I love about both these routines is that he makes the simple look miraculous. Neither routine is technically difficult, but Ben Earl proves that 80% of magic is attitude. Much here to learn about timing and off-handedness of approach. More than worth the price.

Dalton

Simon

This is a brilliant download - just as it says, it's a 'real fooler', The demonstration and explanation are both excellent - and like all the best tricks, the secret is both simple, devious and foolproof. I can't wait to try this one out!

Callum

Timothy

Such a fantastic routine! A real fooler!

Shelly

Absolutely 100 percent DOPE!!!!! I love Ben Earls stuff.

Jack

Very nice—the principle itself is ancient and extremely simple, but also somewhat transparent, so what you get here is a technique that obscures it under multiple layers of mental misdirection. Personally I was not fooled, but only because I use this principle all the time, and the ideas about how to better obscure it are invaluable.

Matthew

Christian

Very fooling and good trick. Although i knew the method i was surprised and still fooled.

Gregory Glau

absolutely awesome!!! Ben is a genius!!! the feeling of spontanaity is contagious!! i was fooled & utterly mystified as the conclusion drew closer> truly incredible

James

The Effects are so good! I was blown away by the absolute fairness in each routine. Add to that the simplicity of the method and you have something special. I'm for sure going to be doing these tricks for a long time!

Two of my favorite self-working tricks of all time :)

Good video production, Very enjoyable to watch and enjoyable to learn.When watching the demo its as if its imposssble, as in how is this possable to find the selected chosen card, but once you no the secret, it is so very simple that you will be suprised by the methods used, they are both different with the mechanics of the magic, but they are both foolers of what looks like a impossable location..i do recomend to watch the video all the way through, as ben gives different outs, its as if you think it has gone wrong on one of them, but it hasnt, ben explains this very clear, which is very easy to folllow, nothing complicated, but worth undestanding all the methods Ben uses, as this depends on what happens on the out, and a very simple method on how to fix this, without the spectator even knowing whats going on, this will make total sence once you watch this.
A Great teacher, Geat card magic.

You are a beginner?
You have no skills in slight of hands, vanishing cards or similar things. But you are looking for „something with cards“.
Well, this was my starting point.
To make it short: in case you are at the same skills-position like me „Impossible by Benjamin Earl“ is something for you.

My rating: worth the money because it is not the usual stuff and relatively easy to learn.

Louis

ben earl, in my opinion, is one of the greats. this purchase was worth its weight in gold. what is amazing about ben is his genius in structuring his magic. it goes far and beyond the actual effect. this beautiful structuring makes the effect a work of art. ben is an excellent instructor, who explains everything in meticulous detail.
i highly recommend this ‘impossible’ bundle.

Aaron

Vernon

This is good stuff. Use it at the close-up table and receive good response.

Mark

These are two beautiful effects that are baffling and fun filled. Benjamin does such a wonderful presentation, that alone is worth the price. All in all a great buy.

Both effects are strong and easy to perform. Get them now. Highly recommended.

Mathias

I've been a big fan of Ben Earl's effect "The Answer" due to its method relying more on the psychological rather than hardcore sleight of hand. The 2 effects in this bundle follow the same path, which I'm a huge fan of.

One could just buy these downloads for the tricks and be done with it, however I feel there's more value in trying to understand his way of thinking behind the tricks and what makes them strong.

Highly recommended for both novices and the more advanced, and can definitely recommend getting the bundle instead of buying them singly, as you can learn 2 completely different methods for locating a selected card.

Tristan

Two excellent effects!! Both magician foolers, these tricks are exactly as advertised.

Note, that Ramjollock is the harder of the two, being a bit finicky at first to learn, but with a bit of practice its mechanics can be learned with precision. Ben teaches expert manipulation of a spectator, and his insight is well worth the price of the download.

Carl

This is so good I hesitate to write this review because I don't want everyone to know this material so I can fool them one day :)
Two thumbs up and a twist!

Jaron

This is effect is great. A must have for everyone.

Jack

If you don't perform card magic because you cannot manipulate the cards - you need these downloads. Absolutely no card skill is required. The spectator does it all. The result is as the video shows. The 'assistant' cannot believe you found their card. Play this in any style, straight, comedic, mentalism the choice is yours. BUY IT NOW

Norberto

It is such a pleasure to learn new and useful techniques from a true professional.
There are thousands of things taught in these videos, besides the main technique/trick you purchase. Things that will serve any magician, any professional, to achieve great things in anything they undertake.

There are tricks, and there are University Degree offerings, in the magic world. Most of the tricks will be forgotten, when not tossed to the trash, eventually, but these jewels will remain in our arsenal for a lifetime.

I learn to love magic again, a deeper love, a stronger love, an even more committed bond and responsibility after I saw this two videos. I long for more nurturing material like this. Thank you for making these available to all of us.

Chapeau.

Claes

PLEASE DON´T BUY THIS !!!!!
It´s so bad so save your money........... ;)
This is so good so i ´ll cry, easy to do and it will make you look like a card pro !!
Thanks Ben Earl !!!!

Peter

Great effects ... both deceptive in the extreme !!! One reminiscent of an Anneman effect ... the other allows the opportunity for "jazz magic" --- both are fun to perform - and to learn. Two of the most fun effects I have seen/learned in recent times !!!

Stephanie

Oh My! I'm stunned, Ben
BRILLIANT and so easy.
These will be in my next restaurant routine.
I Love them.

And I love his assistant!

Philip

Terrific, so cheeky, I’m so glad I got them, suggest you don’t hesitate, great value.

Malcolm

If you are considering any one of these downloads don’t hesitate get both as they are both effects that will blow the socks off both the laymen and magicians alike!!!

George

Ben Earl takes an effect from Expert Card Technique and gives it some of his own flair. He also talks through many fears you might have when attempting such brazen card business, providing a few compensation techniques and some outs as well. A 3 star DL jumps to 4 thanks to this special VI sale price. Check it out

James

This is a great trick. The subtly of the secret is deviously deceptive. Such enhances its greatness. In my opinion this is Definitely a trick to add to any Magician's Repertoire. The Explanation is great and easy to understand and follow. A great bargain for the money. I look forward to purchasing more great tricks like this. 5 Stars!!! ?? ?? ?? ?? ??
