Just Performed the best Mentalism Trick of my Life

I take back what I said. You've admitted that it's not magic. Now I'm just really curious to see how it is done.
 
You guys are HILARIOUS! I really do love this place. I have a magic company interested at the moment, so we will see how that goes. A video will definitely be released, but I don't know whether the company will want to make it or if I will be required to make it, which would be fun. I'll let you know more as it develops. -Matt
 
that is wicked!!! (as in cool, not evil, he he he).

Awesome trick, would love to see a more complete and detailed video!

Good luck with this, make sure all contracts are in place before you give any info away!!!

Here's a question you might be able to answer...

if Penguin knew the trick was coming, would you still be able to do it? If he knew the exact spot on his arm where the word would be written from the beginning of your meeting with him, could it still be done?
 
It could still be done, but I would rather use misdirection for the effect. In that situation, I would make the word appear somewhere else on the spectator.
 
I just talked to Rich Ferguson. He is a great guy by the way. My method is one of the methods he uses, so I will not pursue marketing. I respect his work and am happy I can perform the illusion, but it is his intellectual property, and I respect that.

Here is him performing the illusion on the street.

yeah where's the link?
(and yes I already checked my arm)

I did notice though, that when suggesting that the woman think of a word you suggested that she think of the first word that floated into her mind and bubbles float ... so wondered if there was some power of suggestion in what you are doing ...

but yeah .. link? :)

I guess since you won't be marketing it, you can share the secrets in this thread... ;)

What, do you want him kicked out of the magicians alliance?
