.But this demonstration isn t about me revealing your card insome spectacular way, it s more a display of something that doesn t just bend reality, but completelybreaches it.The reason I asked you to sign the card is to prove that there s only one card like that, there s no way Icould duplicate the card or secretly copy your signature& That card is unique because of you, and it s notonly the only one in the deck, but it s the only one like that in existence.Now, I want you to watch very closely as I do this, make sure that there s no funny business going on,that I m not taking cards out or manipulating the deck in any way and pay particular attention to myhands&Hold both of your hands open over the table about 2 inches above the cards.Lower your hands to thetable and push the cards together into a closer pile, it s important that the messy pile hides the loadedcard on the other side of the glass& Reach under the pile at the back with your thumb as you slowlymove your open free hand under table holding still at least 1foot below the glass.Make sure that yourhand can be seen wide open at all times.82:Ask the spectator to name their selected and signed playing card.As they name the card, slowly lift thecards up about 2cm (image82,) this will instantly cause the magnetic card to disconnect and fall down intoyour awaiting hand.Move your hand away from the deck and slowly bring the card out from under thetable.At this point, you needn t worry about removing the magnet from the back of the card right away, takeyour time and allow the card to be seen by all.Simply slide your fingers across the back of the card whilstkeeping a good grip with your thumb.This will allow the magnet to pop off into your hand.The card can be handed out for inspection as you gather the cards, as you slide them off of the table intoyour awaiting hand the magnet will connect with the gimmicked card which can then be copped away toyour pocket (if need be.)Retaining the gimmick with the magnet attached allows for an instant reset should you wish to performthis effect again.All you have to do is stick the small magnet to the bottom card and replace the holdercard to the topYou may have noticed from the Breach trailer (which no doubt led you to this effect (if you haven t seen it,check out youtube.com/DAN1Elmadison)) that the above explanation is slightly different to the main videoperformance, I hope this now offers a little insight into the art of showmanship over the art of sleights, and following in that battle, this effect proves that an impossible idea can be achieved through time,direction and clear thought.Although the video was performed with a face down deck, I offer the face up performance for a number ofreasons.Working backwards, as one in this profession would, the falling card offers far greater reactionswhen the identity of the card can be seen mid air, this promotes a more impossible fete and alsodiminishes any thoughts of a switch with a pre-loaded fall card after the event.Your spectator will alsoremember that they saw THEIR card fall through solid glass, rather than A card.When the cards are spread on the surface, face up, you are offering the spectator a chance to seek outtheir chosen card, obviously they won t see it, but the proposal of an exposed deck offers the chance thattheir card could have been seen in the pile, once again, a memory trick that most spectators will look backon by admitting that they saw the card in the pile on top of the table.This is also perfect misdirection forthe awkwardly copped card.I think the shit kicker with this as a power-effect is that the card falls at the performers command, unlikemost predecessors, where timing is the centrepiece of the effect as in the amount of time I takes thethreshold of friction between the card and glass to break before the card naturally falls.Other effects callfor sticking by means of saliva, or as it s known where I come from fleg& disgusting, and officiallyunhygienic, especially for the spectator who decides to check the glass afterward.errr.Should you wish to perform this with a face down deck, all I advise is that you remember that the smallmagnet has to stick to the face of the selected card, as opposed to the back, through which you will haveto change the tack to the other side of the small magnet.You may need to check the thickness of the glass you are performing this effect through, the table usedon the video was 1 inch thick which is quite uncommon for a glass table so you can be sure that this willwork through normal sheet glass.I would also note that this can be performed through a solid table, providing it isn t too thick& This doeslack the visual aspect but is still worth noting.And do make sure that the table isn t metal for blindinglyobvious reasons.A method for Breach through window has been removed form this document as by now it should be selfexplanatory, and on top of that I didn t want to teach an effect that uses gimmicks when KAOS by SeanBeard achieves the same thing, impromptu and without gimmicks.I will add that Breach also worksthought a card windscreen. IDENTITY BREACH PKFor those of you ahead enough to have a PK ring in your magic-box, I offer the simplest version of breachknown to man&Force the duplicate of the holder cardCop the holder cardSpread the deck on the tableHold your PK ring hand over the card on the tableLoad the holder card so that it connects with the PK ring through the glassDisconnect when ready IDENTITY BREACH AFTERTHOUGHTSAs a connoisseur of rare and uncommon playing cards I do feel for those gimmick lovers who are restrainedfrom the use of those gimmicks only printed in Red Bike Rider Backs.Thankfully, although Breach mostlikely arrived as a Red Bike Rider, it can be easily adapted to any deck.Simply cut the card around the magnet and remove it from the card shell it sits in.Get some double-sided stick tape and secure the magnet to the back of any card from your desired deck, now simply stickanother card to the back of this thus covering and hiding the magnet inside.It was suggested to me by a former friend who deserves no credit that this effect can be performedthrough a spectators out-stretched t-shirt.And although it can, I do wonder why any serious performerwould want to do this, nonetheless the suggestion remains, just for those who do that kind of magic.Andby that I don t mean shirt-lifting, I would just never suggest for a magician to use the words can you justlift up your shirt for me, I merely refer to the too-cool-for-pre-school-cool-dood who is in fact way too coolto respect his spectators personal space and dignity
