Jérôme Sauloup, the genius behind the hit tricks "Choice" and "Switch Cup", has returned with a delightfully whimsical, visual, and absurdly easy trick. Magic Dream is chuffed to introduce "C-Life".
Let’s be honest: goldfish appearances are a classic, but they can be a right faff to pull off. The old setups were a bit of a nightmare, and no one wants to stress out their little aquatic buddy! (That’s just cruel, mate.)
So, Jérôme went back to the drawing board and thought, "How can I do this without causing a fishy fiasco?" And voilà—C-Life was born! He’s crafted a gimmick that’s comfy for the fish and a visual feast for your audience. It’s so easy to perform that you can actually focus on entertaining instead of panicking.
Picture this: an empty glass of water sits innocently on the table. You cover it with a handkerchief, and in the blink of an eye, a fish is now gracefully swimming around in the glass! And the best part? You can hand the glass to your spectators so they can confirm there’s nothing fishy (pun intended) going on—just the fish! You flash your empty hands, take a bow, and soak up the applause as your audience wonders if they’ve just witnessed real magic!
The nifty gimmick in C-Life isn’t just a one-trick pony; you can adapt it for all sorts of objects: a scarf (even a transparent one!), a fan, an iPad, a restaurant menu, a flag, a slate, and more. Get creative and craft a routine that suits your style!
You’ll receive:
A polycarbonate glass—tough enough to survive your clumsiness (no more replacing smashed glasses)
The gimmicks
The scarf
Strong points:
Versatile with many objects
No fish torture involved
Visually stunning
Easy as pie
While it’s nifty for close-up, this trick shines on stage or in parlour settings
