World's Best Cap in Bottle
The
classic cap in bottle trick but finally a version that can be done from the
stage and with complete confidence. The handling was worked out in conjunction
with Jay Sankey and now stands up to real world use. The initial idea of
the Cap in Bottle was incredible, however it had definite limitations. The
angles were bad, it was a tiny bottle and the gimmick wasn't 100% reliable.
Dave's version was invented out of necessity. It had to be big for the stage,
it only uses half a lable (the back 2 thirds of the bottle are clear) and
it has to work every night. All of the problems were solved and improved
and can be done under close scrutiny (i.e. front row) with no worries! At
some point in your act you bring the bottle out in front of the audience
and it is seen to be empty. You state that you will show them something unusual.
The cap is removed from the neck and held in the right hand. In the wink
of an eye the hands come together (like in a throwing motion) and the bottle
cap is seen to have penetrated the bottle and is now visible inside. The
performer now states he will attempt to remove the cap from the bottle and
then proceeds to do just that to the amazement of the audience! Through routine
and handling suggestions from Jay this piece finally can be performed without
worry and with confidence on a nightly basis! Truly the world’s best!
All individually hand made comes with handling
