BAMBOOZLERS - VOL. 1 - DIAMOND JIM TYLER Plus HYDRO Magic Trick Visual

Description

Hydro- Imagine borrowing an open bottle full of liquid (water, soda, beer, etc.) and placing your hand over the opening. Once the bottle is turned mouth down you can remove your hand and amazingly the contents inside remain suspended. The liquid can be made to leave the bottle at the magician’s command or the bottle can be inverted and handed back to the spectator. This looks incredible!
Toothpicks or matchsticks can be inserted into the mouth of the bottle while it is inverted to prove that nothing is covering the opening. This is not your grandpa's hydrostatic bottle gimmick. You'll be performing this seemingly impromptu miracle in minutes after learning the secret. This is a true worker that you'll start taking with you everywhere you go.
Detailed instructions and the necessary "practically invisible" equipment is included ! The book teaches the reader how to do amazing and funny things with common objects found around the house or in a restaurant. It is a collection of bar bets, brain teasers, jokes, puzzles and magic effects that I’ve collected over the last 20 years. Many of the classics between these covers have been injected with my own twists and sense of humor.

FOREWORD
A number of books have been published on what magicians like to call “betchas”. I myself have written a few of them. None comes close to the collection that Diamond Jim Tyler has obtained from his experience in working restaurants and bars for the past twenty years, from earlier books, and from his friends and acquaintances. What you now hold in only the tip of an iceberg – the first volume of a projected series.
Who is Diamond Jim Tyler? Besides being my friend, he is a Texas magician, and a top performer, one who has a wealth of novel ideas up his sleeves. He has invented dozens of magic effects sold world-wide and is best known for his book and DVD Pockets Full of Miracles.
For this volume Diamond Jim has collected seventy-five betchas, brain teasers, gags and simple magic effects that can be performed with such common objects as coins, toothpicks, glasses, dollar bills, dice and other things found around the house. Some are old, some new, and some presented here for the first time. And you will get a chuckle out of the joking asides with which Jim concludes most of his items.
Diamond Jim has even carefully selected a tongue-twister for the title of his new book. And I betcha can’t repeat it three times rapidly! -Martin Gardner. You get both items!
