Crazy Cash by Dan Harlan (Instant Download)
The ultimate torn and restored magic trick that leaves a lasting impression. A signed, borrowed bill is torn into four pieces and restored in an astonishing manner.
“I’ve created a lot of magic throughout my career, but nothing compares to Crazy Cash for the impact it delivers.” – Dan Harlan
Begin by borrowing a bill from your spectator. Tear it into four genuine pieces and restore them in a seemingly impossible order. This isn’t just a trick; it’s a memorable experience that your audience will discuss for years. The spectator signs the bill right from the start, ensuring that the torn bill is the same one that gets restored. This is real currency, making the effect even more powerful.
In Crazy Cash, the spectator’s signed bill is folded and torn into four equal parts. The restoration process involves fusing two pieces together with their opposite edges touching, followed by the same for the other two pieces. The corners of the bill meet in the center, transforming the torn edges into a cohesive whole. The spectator’s signature remains visible throughout, and the mismade bill can be handed out for immediate examination.
Dan Harlan provides comprehensive guidance on creating the necessary gimmicks, making this effect surprisingly easy to perform. Once the bill is signed, most of the work is already done. As an added bonus, you’ll receive a PDF of Dan Harlan’s Crazy 8, another incredible signed torn and mismade effect that shares the same principles. Full television performance rights are also included. This isn’t just a reputation builder; it’s a trick that will keep everyone talking.
Note: To perform this effect, you will need to acquire additional materials for your chosen denomination. These materials are not available through Penguin, but detailed instructions on where to obtain them are included in the download. This product is designed for use with US currency, though international currency may be applicable on a case-by-case basis.
