Heavy Metal by João Miranda, Chris James and Julio Montoro Review (🥳You'll like this)

Scott Perry reviews 'Heavy Metal', a modern twist on the classic matchbox penetration effect, ingeniously adapted to an everyday object – AirPods. Created by João Miranda, Chris James, and Julio Montoro, this stainless-steel gimmick offers a baffling illusion where a key visibly penetrates through a solid metal AirPods case. Priced at $175, it comes with a silicone case, a key, a protective pouch, an Allen key for resetting, and six instructional videos. Scott highlights its durability, ease of use, and nearly angle-proof performance, though he notes minor drawbacks like its incompatibility with AirPods Pro and the internal hole that might hint at the method. Despite these, he highly recommends it for its deceptive appeal and everyday carry potential.
