It’s not really a pocket straw it’s actually a magician’s “appearing staff.” You can find them on Amazon for various prices at various different lengths. I purchased this one from Amazon.

u/itty53 · 342 pointsr/blackmagicfuckery

Yup. You can see when he puts the fake thumb in the shirt (he jams his thumb in there oddly, when he'd been using his index finger) and then again when he takes it out (the last thing he does is jam his thumb in there).

This is an old trick typically done with a handkerchief in your hand. The cigarette is just a new spin on it, though I'd bet it necessitates something else in the thumb, like a dime or a penny, to avoid burning right through that rubber.

They are cheap:

They are fun but be careful with them. You'll poke your eye out. (or send it through a window)

I recently watched Now You See Me 2, so they were fresh on my mind. And I see now how many people already revealed the magicians’ secrets. I feel like a dingus for the spoiler text.

Anyway, have a link to some glow thumbs

Basically, the Hive weaponized this: http://www.amazon.com/Magic-Animal-Growing-Capsules-12/dp/B0016KVH1Y

I think it'd be more hilarious, though, if there's a Hive planet somewhere out there that's just covered in a 14-mile-high pile of Thorn Thorns, and all the Thorns in existence teleport their ammunition from the Thorn Planet.

It's called a Switch Pitch by Hoberman and it's the most simple fun someone can have

http://www.amazon.com/Hoberman-Switch-Pitch-Throwing-Ball/dp/B000P13PL0

u/gdj11 · 14 pointsr/billiards

Actually what's more likely and easy is that the cameraman is using invisible thread that's stuck to the 8 ball with a tiny bit of wax. Invisible thread is what magicians use to levitate things. The camera shakes because it's the cameraman who pulls the thread, causing the 8 ball to roll towards him.

u/faz712 · 12 pointsr/blackmagicfuckery

No that's Trump.

This is sleight of hand (or more likely just something like this)

u/the_hoser · 11 pointsr/PS4

There's a product you can buy that's just as accurate at predicting these kinds of things as asking on reddit. It's pretty cheap. All you have to do is ask it a yes/no answer, like 'Will God of War be under $20 during the black friday sale?", and then flip it over.

Maybe we could just replace juries with a Magic Eight Ball. /s

u/Where_You_Want_To_Be · 8 pointsr/gifs

It's a great trick for kids because they don't always pay close enough attention to details like this, it's also really easy to do, and doesn't require much practice or sleight of hand. Do it in front of a mirror for a bit to get the timing right, but otherwise, it's easy.

The "D'lite" is kind of the most popular one, and highest quality IMO, and it's only $20 for a set of two, so not bad.

https://www.amazon.com/Dlites-Regular-Red-Lightup-Magic/dp/B0104HS4TW/

Edit: I see now that you can get sets of 4 for like $8 on Amazon Prime, so I guess maybe the knock-offs are the way to go.

u/harmonigga · 8 pointsr/gadgets

First 3D color hologram? What a joke. Concave mirror holograms have been around since mirrors have been around. In fact you can buy these toys These "researchers" just attached a laser to the apex.

u/RichardPeterJohnson · 6 pointsr/business

$120?! Damn, that's expensive. $7.99 at Amazon

u/en2nui · 5 pointsr/Throwers

I would recommend an N12 for a yoyo on Amazon, 18 dollars is a much cheaper investment for a hobby you might end up not liking. It's also the yoyo with possibly the best price/performance ratio so there's that.

u/Fast_Biscotti · 5 pointsr/BetterEveryLoop

It's this stuff. Attach one end to yourself (in my day, I used a fake pager that contained a spool of the thread), and the other end to some object using magician's wax. Looks to me like he might have two lines going for the napkin to be so steady. Probably has one end fed through a shirt button hole, and the other stuck on a chair at the other end of the table. Some really fun wizardry can happen if you're wearing black, or if the background is black. People can get right up close to the effect, and never see the thread. It's really that thin.

u/NoonyNature · 5 pointsr/blursedimages
u/WiredEarp · 4 pointsr/gifs

What would be cool if you make one like those illusion disks. So when she opens it, it appears on the top surface, but when she goes to grab it she can't because it's actually inside. You'd need to make that version bigger though and doing the internal curves in wood would be tricky.

https://www.amazon.com/Toysmith-79747-3-D-Mirascope-6-Inch/dp/B000N5T8KA/ref=pd_aw_fbt_21_img_2/175-6937090-3996263?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B000N5T8KA&pd_rd_r=0de7b5af-6bc1-11e9-b12e-253105b62179&pd_rd_w=7DbNo&pd_rd_wg=U2wC0&pf_rd_p=3ecc74bd-d08f-44bd-96f3-d0c2b89f563a&pf_rd_r=W29FMWXMTCSKRBBTSNNM&psc=1&refRID=W29FMWXMTCSKRBBTSNNM

u/civilaiden · 3 pointsr/Cardinals

Their system is actually pretty cheap.

u/suburiboy · 3 pointsr/Throwers

Your choices aren't too great on amazon, since we're pretty niche.

I would get a

velocity
http://www.amazon.com/YoYoFactory-Velocity-Black/dp/B00LSNDQ6I/ref=sr_1_3?rps=1&ie=UTF8&qid=1456867561&sr=8-3&keywords=velocity+yoyo&refinements=p_85%3A2470955011

N12
http://www.amazon.com/MAGICYOYO-SHARK-HONOR-String-Trick/dp/B00LHIFKYU/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1456867685&sr=8-2&keywords=N12+yoyo

Butterfly XT
http://www.amazon.com/Duncan-Butterfly-Colors-may-vary/dp/B00BWJK0KS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1456867715&sr=8-1&keywords=butterfly+yoyo

The velocity if you want something that can be responsive or unresponsive, but sacrifices some usability(High walls, meh weight distribution). The N12 if you want something unresponsive and actually pretty good (but you'll need to learn to bind immediately). The Butterfly if you want a cheap responsive yoyo to learn the ropes on before buying something better somewhere other than amazon later. TBH Butterfly XT + N12 is basically what I got when I started... and I'm doing fine.

u/Kesshh · 3 pointsr/asianpeoplegifs

Here you go:
Black Metal Appearing Cane with Video Tutorial - Stage Magic Trick by Magic Seed https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CMAT2M8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_0UBTBbS9BHP39

u/Halfawake · 2 pointsr/Throwers

Do yourself a favor and go for the Magic YoYo N12. It breaks my heart when I see people who are tight on money going for something more expensive that is less awesome.

https://www.amazon.com/Magic-Yo-yo-SHARK-String-Aluminum/dp/B00LHIFKYU/ref=sr_1_3?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1468338039&sr=1-3&keywords=n12+yoyo

And if you don't want to get that one, at least don't punch yourself in the face by getting a Replay.

u/PiedjeeyXD32 · 2 pointsr/SiliconValleyHBO

yeah most toy store around were i live sell them. i also found one on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Hoberman-Switch-Pitch-Throwing-Ball/dp/B000P13PL0

u/ColeSloth · 2 pointsr/IAmA

Not even kevlar. I have a bunch of the stuff actually. You can pick it up in most places that sale magicians stuff. Usually comes as a long piece of what looks like a thicker piece of cotton thread and you separate your own piece of thin fiber from the thicker part, so that one string has like 50 super thin pieces you can use. It's a bit elastic.

Tie one end to your back belt loop and drape it right over your head in front of you and you can make the stuff float in pretty neat looking ways.

$4.00 Shipped

u/Brickman370 · 2 pointsr/DesignPorn
u/WTF_SilverChair · 2 pointsr/oddlysatisfying

It's worth noting that you're talking about a Hoberman Switch Pitch sphere. If I didn't know the show or Hoberman stuff, I'd have gotten the impression that it was a ball with a color for each hemisphere, rather than the fun, unfolding marvel that the Switch Pitch is.

There's only one of these balls in my wife's family, and they had to relocate it to her mom's house so all the kids could play with it.

u/doctechnical · 2 pointsr/nostalgia

Evidently you can still get them on Amazon. But I preferred the polymer non-capsule creatures that expanded when you soaked them.

Expanding towels are pretty cool, too. And practical.

u/cresloyd · 2 pointsr/shittyadvice

As with every job, you need the right tools.

First, get a Ouija Board, and when you master its use, get a Magic 8 Ball.

Kit is available on Amazon here, and the trick's gimmick was discussed in the /r/videos thread here.

They are tiny lights that go on kind of like a glove and are almost unnoticeable. They turn on with pressure. That’s why he pinched his index and thumb together to activate them.

u/TheFeshy · 1 pointr/DebateAnAtheist

> It's not easy task for you and many more out there. Then believe and faith will be restricted to only educated population. But it is not like that.

Not only is it not like that, it's literally the opposite of that. Faith shows a strong inverse correlation with education.

> For some people it just strikes the heart. If a superior power can create and manage all these around us and beyond our knowledge then definitely he can rule the brains and hearts too.

Plenty of people you disagree with feel their faith was something that struck their heart too - people of other religions, for instance. How do you tell something real from something we just want to believe in our hearts? I'll tell you how - all those non-faith ways you list above: like research and learning. Which correlate inversely with faith; that is, the more you learn the less you're likely to believe anything your "gut" tells you. Which should be obvious - you learn all about those times human guts and hearts were wrong, but evidence and modeling and repetition were right.

> We doesn't understand something doesn't mean it's right or wrong.

Usually, if we can't understand it, it's because it's not even wrong.

> And what the people follow as religion can be right or wrong. Because people intend to make mistakes but not the superior power.

Substitute your superior power for anything else, and see if it holds true. For instance: "Magic eight-balls are never wrong; they are all-knowing. People can be right or wrong trying to follow their random-seeming advice, but the magic eight-balls are never wrong. The failings are because of the humans, not the perfect magic eight-balls."

Do you find that argument even a little convincing? No? Then hopefully you can understand why we don't find yours convincing - they are basically the same argument.

> And it's not burden to believe in something beyond everything. For an outsider it may look like a burden but actually it isn't a burden for the person who believe.

The truth does not care if it is a burden for you or not.

u/anxiousdinosaur · 1 pointr/AskTrollX

In addition to succulents that I have [boo, sorry you have no natural light. :(] I also have a magic eight ball. It's just something fun to have, and people older than 12 usually haven't seen one in a long time, so people stopping by to chat like to pick it up and play with it/tell a story about one time something happened in their life with an eight ball.

I found out about this patch a few weeks ago, it works great. You just need the game ISO and then just patch it and play.

to play a patched ISO on your PS2 or PS2 slim you'll need a swap magic disk.

u/hactar_ · 1 pointr/talesfromtechsupport

I have one. It's a black rectangular solid with a footprint about the size of a cassette tape, with a handle and switch. I don't know why I have it. WIWAL my dad had one with a metal core sticking out ("wand" type?) for the reel-to-reel heads. I used it to degauss a Magnetic Gyro Wheel (probably not that exact model); it didn't work out very well.

Well if you want to play it, or any imports for that matter, pick this baby up. One of my favorite investments. Only about $30.

A swap disc is a disc that you insert in your ps2 ,allow it to load, eject without shutting down, and then insert burnt media such as backups of games. Some allow you to run content from a usb drive.This was the first one that came up when I searched. I've heard that there are downloadable ones online but I don't know if its true or not. Either way if you don't think your tech savvy enough to mod a ps2 a swap disc is the way to go.

Not actually a wire, but super thin nylon strand with a bit of sticky on the end.

You can buy it at any little magic shop or Amazon for about $6.00: https://www.amazon.com/Magic-Makers-Magicians-Invisible-Thread/dp/B002FP9L1W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1526315145&sr=8-1&keywords=floating+card+trick

I've always known Swap Magic to come in a set of 2 discs as shown here. You have a CD for CD-based games and a DVD for DVD-based games.

u/Capt1n_Barbosa · 1 pointr/speedrun

I'm pretty sure they (read Sony) patched out any backwards compatibility in the old PS3s a few years ago so that's a poor way to go. Good news is NTSC PS2s CAN play games from other regions using a modchip (which is difficult to set up) OR, and I recommend this method, a 'magicswap'. Basically, it's a disc that comes with a tool to open the drive after the game has booted but without resetting the console. The disc is labeled an NTSC and once you take it out and put a different region's disc in the software on the first disk boots the game you want. The PS2 doesn't check region after the initial boot so it works perfectly from what I remember. This was popular back in the day so people in the USA could play Final Mix versions of Kingdom Hearts since they were only released in Japan. I'll edit a link in for the thing soon.


Edit: This is the disk thing. Not sure if they have a PAL version though so keep that in mind. It costs $35 and if you plan on using a 1st generation PS2 (the fat one that has a motorized disk tray) you'll need to get an opener tool which is only $4. One thing I forgot is that this also removes security checks so you can play backups using this too. (Possibly even load off a hard drive/USB but I'm not sure on that)
