And let’s be honest, every time it happens, spectators lose their minds. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt’s a classic that nails it every time. Take something they know, make it something utterly bonkers, and watch the magic unfold.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo, Craig Petty and Lloyd Barnes scratched their heads and asked themselves one simple question:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHow can we crank this idea up a notch?\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe answer? \u003cb\u003eFUEL\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePicture this: a card is selected and signed. You shuffle it back into the deck while handing over a lighter you’ve been using all night to the spectator.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThen, the card disappears from the deck as you casually say...\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Wouldn't it be amazing if your card popped up UNDER the lighter in your hands...\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"What if it appeared INSIDE the lighter?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"How about if your card BECAME the lighter?\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow, that’s a statement that makes zero sense. They’ve seen the lighter go into their hands, and they still FEEL it sitting there! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut when they open their hands, poof! The lighter is nowhere to be found. That lump of plastic and flint has magically turned into a wobbly piece of card stock, with a lighter printed on one side and their \u003cb\u003esignature on the other.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is \u003cb\u003eFUEL\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe get it, you might be sceptical (we were too).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHow on Earth does a spectator not notice the difference between a lighter and a piece of paper?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWatch the trailer.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt shows every single performance we filmed because, let’s face it, every reaction was pure gold! Not a single one hit the cutting room floor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI walked into that filming questioning Craig and Lloyd’s sanity, but walked out a complete convert.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOh, and here’s the kicker... Craig didn’t even use a real lighter for most of those performances! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo real lighter to juggle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo awkward switcheroo.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo need to light anything beforehand to convince them it’s legit. To be fair, he does teach you how to switch a lighter in and out of play in the tutorial, but you’ll see from the trailer that it’s just not necessary.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo, what do you actually get with \u003cb\u003eFUEL\u003c\/b\u003e?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou’ll receive \u003cb\u003e40 fuel gimmicks\u003c\/b\u003e, 20 big lighter gimmicks, and 20 mini lighter gimmicks. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach gimmick is crafted to deliver different versions of the effect.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe big lighter is designed for the \u003cb\u003evisual change\u003c\/b\u003e. You hold the lighter in your hands, and they’re staring right at it until you choose to unfold it to reveal their signature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe mini lighter? It’s built for the \u003cb\u003ein the hands version\u003c\/b\u003e. It goes straight into the spectator's hands, where they’re convinced they’re holding a lighter, until they open their hands to discover it’s their signed playing card.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwo completely different experiences, all stemming from one brilliantly simple idea:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eA lighter becomes their signed card...\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCraig Petty and Lloyd Barnes took a plot that already gets jaw-dropping reactions and somehow made the finale even hotter.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYour spectators see a lighter, and they’re convinced they’re holding nothing but a lighter.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUntil they open their hands and uncover the impossible.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eThis is FUEL.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Murphy's Studio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57289149514052,"sku":"FUEL_BARNES","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0943\/1826\/4644\/files\/79648-full.png?v=1789666444","url":"https:\/\/www.handpickedmagic.com\/products\/fuel-by-lloyd-barnes-and-craig-petty","provider":"Hand Picked Magic ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
