Separation Anxiety by Watkins (Instant Download)

Unlock the Secrets of Mentalism

This captivating routine is taken from Watkins’ exclusive hardbound book, “Positive / Negative.” With the techniques outlined in this manuscript, you will master the art of ‘stealing’ a random stranger’s Bank PIN directly from their mind, leaving them with no recollection of their code.

You’ll then astound your audience by ‘restoring’ the thought, revealing the PIN and showcasing your extraordinary ability to extract thoughts from someone’s mind! This routine serves as an excellent introduction to hypnosis, featuring fail-safe ‘outs’ at every stage of the performance.

However, use this powerful effect with caution and responsibility, as it can be misused in the wrong hands.

EFFECT: An audience member is selected and invited on stage. The Mentalist guides her into a trance, instructing her to envision an empty street at night with an ATM ahead. She imagines entering a four-digit PIN and then erasing it from her memory completely, ensuring that if asked, she would be unable to recall it. She nods in understanding, confirming that the thought has vanished from her mind.

The Performer notes something on a clipboard, sets it aside, and brings the participant out of her trance. When asked about her PIN, she genuinely cannot remember it! The Performer explains to the audience:

“Many wonder if I can guess someone’s bank information, but that’s not enough! If I can truly extract this information from a person’s mind, they are left in a precarious position, unable to verify their details or prevent me from accessing their funds. But I am ethical, so let me help her remember her PIN.”

With a gentle touch on her head, the participant recalls her PIN and announces it aloud. The Performer then reveals the clipboard, demonstrating that he indeed extracted the PIN from her mind.
