VIEW CLIP For centuries rumors have blossomed: tales of gurus, shamans, mystics and the secret powers of the mysterious "Third Eye" have fascinated the populous. But, can the myths reality actually be demonstrated? Now, Ben Harris brings this fantastic mystery to lifeócreating a unique, freaky and visually-arresting effectóone slick enough for even the most savvy of todays street-wise performers.
HOLE IN THE HEAD has been one of the artís most closely guarded secrets of recent timesóit has fooled, amused and delighted some of magicís biggest names. Using no mirrors or reflective devices and no stooges, HOLE IN THE HEAD is a radical and visual NEW PLOTóan exciting piece of street-theatre that simply MUST be experienced live! Whatís more, itís 100% practical! This is a one personódo anywhereóillusion.
In effect, the performer gathers a crowd around himself in a brightly lit, sunny spot. Discussing the amazing legend, he offers to open his own ìThird Eyeî allowing the sun to shine right through his head. As this would be too dangerous to observe directly, he suggests that everyone focus attention on his shadow. After some concerted effort, a small blob of light appears in the centre of his shadow head. Amazingly, this blob of light then grows larger at his command. To prove that it is no mere optical illusion and that the light does indeed pass through his head, a spectator is asked to wave her hand behind the performerís cranium. Incredibly, when she does this, the actions are reciprocated in the shadow headóher fingers are clearly visible in the shadow hole! THE CONCLUSION IS INESCAPABLEóTHE SUN IS INDEED SHINING STRAIGHT THROUGH A HOLE IN THE PERFORMERíS HEAD! The process is now reversed and the hole slowly closed. YOU CAN PERFORM THIS STUNNER VIRTUALLY ANYWHERE THE SUN SHINES. Complete with bonus handlings and clever ideas by Paul Harris and Michael Weber. YOU CAN EVEN OPEN A SPECTATORíS OWN ìTHIRD EYEî!
