As seen on the VH1 program Celebracadabra!
A really startling visual illusion! Performer places his arm into a cylinder, completely filling it. Then he passes a lit candle right through the cylinder- and through his arm!
An excellent effect. Completely self-contained and mechanical. Even better when used with an Appearing Candle or a Vanishing Candle!
We recommend that only adults use a lit candle. This trick also works well with an unlit candle, a broomstick handle, a pool cue or other thin rod.
Performance Ideas
Use an Appearing Candle or Vanishing Candle with this trick.
Use any thin rod- a broomstick handle, a pool cue, a blackboard pointer, etc.
