. Book Of Numbers Vol 1 (Mestha) by Docc Hilford - Trick

Contained within this tome are the detailed secrets of six mentalistic miracles. Beyond his original creations, Docc adds new presentations and method variations to the rich ideas of Ted Annemann, Henry Hardin, Orville Meyer, David Berglas and Al Baker. The combinations produce performance pieces that entertain with a 10,000 volt shock.

Bartender's Nightmare- The mentalist proves his third, or pineal eye can see through human flash and bone as easy as glass The bartender holds any coin in his fist There's no peeks nor force of the coin While...blindfolded, The mentalist draws an accurate picture of it, including the denomination and the date!

Crystal Vision-.. Two numbers, representing the month and day a person was born is written on the back of a business card The card is folded and torn in half The participant holds the side with t he month in one fist and the day in the other . The mentalist looks into a crystal ball and reveals details about the person's life, including his birth date yet he never looks at any part of the card.

Ghostotal- A person thinks of a large number Another person thinks of a small number, then follows the group's instructions regarding adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing his number At the end of the random procedures, the mentalist reveals both chosen numbers The final... climax comes when it's discovered that both numbers are identical!

Match-Matical-.. A completely new slant on a masterpiece Three people choose a specific number of matches from a matchbook and hide them in their fists The mentalist reveals all three chosen numbers in different ways The first by automatic writing The second by a bizarre burn.. on a paper. And finally, ashes spell out the last number in a very spooky manner. All with almost no preparation.

In-nile-lation- Docc found a new twist in the Nile A person thinks of a number and without writing anything, keeps it in mind There's no force, it's a free mental selection People in the audience...call outnumbers that are recorded and added together. The total from the audience is the same number as the one which the person is thinking! There are no forces. There are no switches of numbers. All numbers areconfirmedas being the ones given. In fact, anyone can keep a record of their own and add the called numbers from their seats.

Newmero!- Members of the audience call out numbers that the mentalist records on a board as a problem in addition Everyone watches as the numbers are written down He challenges someone in the audience to try to use a calculator and calculate the sum total faster than he.. can do it in his mind. Not only is the mentalist faster, but he proves to be more accurate! A prediction is opened and read. It gives a description of someone in the audience. The mentalist shows a chart wherein each numeral corresponds with a letter of the alphabet. When translated, the sum total spells out the name of the person described!

None of these effects requires difficult mental calculations. Many tricks have nothing to do with arithmetic of any kind. Those that do, are stunningly clever and brilliantly entertaining.

This is the first in three volume set. Volume 2, Qebhsennuf is close-up and parlor mentalism. Volume 3, Tuamautef is devoted to stage mentalism.

Three spectators are used. Each decides on a thought. The mentalist writes something on a large 9 "x 12" card. It's placed in an envelope numbered "1" and handed to the first spectator. This is repeated with the other two spectators. Later, it's seen that what the mentalist wrote matches each of their cards. The mentalist is also able to give a lot of unwritten information about the spectators.

There are no carbons, billets, special envelopes or pre-show clipboards. You give intimate details about subjects that you could not possibly know. If you use the CEO of the hosting corporation, he'll never understand how you knew his mother's maiden . name or what he ate for breakfast No one ever spoke to him or had him write anything; in fact, you can decide to use him at the last minute while you're on stage.

This truly is a professional method devised through years of experience.
