The Routine A card is selected from a shuffled deck - signed - returned and shuffled by a spectator.
An empty paper bag that is examined by the audience is introduced and the deck is tossed inside.
A spectator is asked to shake the bag to mix the cards and make the finding of the chosen card even more impossible.
The magician removes a knife and stabs it into (and through!) the bag.
Violently the knife is ripped from the bag and a single card is impaled on the end of the blade... the spectator's signed selection!
Just when the audience applause has died down the performer reaches into the bag and produces a large shot glass filled to the brim with water! (Or other liquid)
Perform Stabbed and Shot in short sleeves.
The shot glass production uses real liquid and is BULLETPROOF and safe.
Can be performed close-up and surrounded or on stage.
Reveal one or two cards at the point of a knife.
You can even borrow the bag, the knife and the deck!
Instant reset.
Bonus Routines:
Cupid (the double stab for lovers)
Borrowed (borrow the deck, bag, knife and shot glass)
