There is an X-Treme version of this routine available, but
we'll discuss the regular routine first.
You begin with a brief display of D'Lites. Every little kid
magician has this trick in his repertoire and sometimes kids go
on and on with it for five minutes of flashing D'Lites. Your
audience may even groan when they see you start up. Don't worry.
Just do a quick bit with your D'Lites and lead right into the
production of the flashing pendant.
I got my blinky Heart Pendant from the local Dollar Store.
They don't have to be Heart Shaped pendants and you are not
limited to doing this just on Valentine's Day. The heart shaped
pendant can be used all year 'round, but you could also use a
smiley face pendant, etc.
Regular Version: I explain in
the article how to produce the pendant following your D'Lite
display, then vanish the pendant and use a laser penlight to
track it's progress as it invisibly passes into a woman's purse
out in the audience. She is not a stooge and is as surprised as
anyone when the pendant begins blinking from inside her purse.
X-Treme Version: The X-Treme
Version is exactly the same as the regular version, EXCEPT at the
ending when you ask them to look closely at the Pendant and
that's when they see a small photo of themselves WITH YOU. This
is a photo they have no memory having taken.
