Surreal Killer by John Bannon Performance
This performance video brings John Bannon's Surreal Killer to life, a captivating packet trick that starts with six blank cards and unfolds into a series of surreal transformations. One card instantly prints 'This Is Not A Hole', followed by three cards developing real holes through them, which are then revealed to have artistic statements on their backs, while the final card shows the word 'WHOLE' for a clever finish. Despite all these impossible changes, the routine ends clean with examinable cards, using just two simple sleights taught in the video instructions. It's designed as a self-contained pocket miracle, accessible for all skill levels and allowing performers to add their personal flair for a truly baffling and entertaining experience.
