Just when you think it can’t get any more ridiculous, a large knife enters the scene, with the intention of stabbing through the chosen card—if only the spectator could manage to toss the entire jumbo deck into the air without a hitch. Spoiler alert: this is where everything hilariously spirals out of control, leaving the audience in stitches. But don’t worry; our magician does eventually nail the card. This routine is a riotous blend of comedy and magic, perfect for any seasoned pro looking to boost their act. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIncludes: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFULL explanation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to source your props for UNDER $5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30 YEARS of refinement broken down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTips on extracting the BEST HUMOR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreating a REPUTATION BUILDER\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvery move\/comment FINELY TUNED\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePack small - PLAY BIG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerform this routine ANYWHERE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEASY to do\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMAXIMUM entertainment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGLOBAL appeal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview from John Tea: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWolfgang Riebe is a successful international magician, having performed in over 150 countries and on cruise ships, and has his own TV shows. He specializes in comedy magic, and the \u003cstrong\u003eComedy Paper Bag Blindfold Card Routine\u003c\/strong\u003e is one of his favorite effects. To be selected as one of his favorites speaks volumes of the impact that this effect has on his audience. This is truly a uniquely hilarious trick. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA spectator is invited on stage to help the performer with a card trick. To ensure that the performer does not get to see what card is being chosen, he volunteers to blindfold himself. After some contemplation, he suggests the spectator also be blindfolded so that he cannot see the cards and his choice would be a truly random one. Instead of using cloth blindfolds which the performer claims is non-hygienic (this is true), he brings out brand new large-sized paper bags to put over their heads. The sight of a paper bag over the head of anyone is funny enough to make the audience laugh. Here, both the performer and the spectator each has a paper bag put over their heads. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow comes the hilarious part where the performer tries to shuffle the cards and the spectator tries to select a card, and both of them cannot see what they are doing! Eventually, one card is selected and shuffled back into the deck, amidst more laughter from the audience. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe performer brings out a small knife and says he will ask the spectator to throw the entire deck into the air. While blindfolded, he will lunge the knife into the cascading cards and hope to stab the one selected card. Now comes another hilarious part where the blindfolded spectator throws the deck into the air and tries to get out of the way of the performer's knife. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe performer lunges the knife but fails to pierce any card. He \"blames\" the spectator for not carrying out his instructions properly. The audience can see everything and knows that neither the performer nor the spectator is to be blamed. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDisappointed, the performer brings out his insurance policy he purchased against things that can go wrong in his performance. After more laughter from the \"insurance policy,\" the selected card is finally found, amidst great laughter from the audience! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou receive a link to an online instruction video. The 35-minute video comprises an introduction, 2 live performances, discussion on how to obtain the props, and a full explanation of the complete routine by Wolfgang Riebe. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis routine is inspired by Mark Kornhauser's blindfold act in which he uses a card-sword. Wolfgang has re-thought through the entire presentation and uses paper bags instead of blindfolds and an ordinary kitchen knife instead of the card-sword. The blindfold and the card-sword suggest they are magician's props. For Wolfgang's routine, both the paper bags and the knife are un-gimmicked. This means the effect can be performed at any venue by just carrying the \"insurance policy,\" as the paper bags, knife, and playing cards can be obtained almost anywhere. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs mentioned previously, the sight of a paper bag over someone's head is already a cause for much laughter. Wolfgang shows you how to include some hilarious patter that lifts this routine to the next level. However, he cautions against using his personal patter so that you will not end up being another Wolfgang when you perform this routine. He explains the psychology behind the premise of this routine and shows you how you can customize the presentation as well as your own patter to suit your performing persona. He also discusses his preference for the size of the playing cards to be used on stage and how to select the proper spectator so as not to offend them (as they have to don the paper bag over their head). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a laugh-a-minute comedy routine that runs for about 5 minutes. It packs small yet plays big. It uses props that are easily and cheaply replaceable, except for the insurance policy. You get a PDF file to print and make your own insurance policy. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you’re into comedy magic, this is one routine you won’t want to skip out on. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eHighly recommended. \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.handpickedmagic.com\/blogs\/magic-books\/card-magic-books-vs-video-tutorials-which-should-you-learn-from\"\u003eShould you learn from books or videos?\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Murphy's Magic Supplies, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56346856751428,"sku":"DVBAGBLIND","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0943\/1826\/4644\/files\/60756-full.png?v=1769945929","url":"https:\/\/www.handpickedmagic.com\/products\/comedy-paper-bag-blindfold-routine-by-wolfgang-riebe-video-download","provider":"Hand Picked Magic ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
