This is a safe model which uses a wooden egg instead of a spike..
The audience always loves Russian roulette magic tricks,
This is a new version of the classic Russian roulette trick, with no electronic or magnet, completely self-contained no additional gimmick required.
This trick can be used in Close Up / Cabaret.
There are four hand-turned wooden discs… one has a wooden egg, and the remaining three are empty…
Now magician takes 4 empty paper cups and numbers them 1 to 4 with a marker and places each on one disc. Now magician turns around and asks the spectator either can shuffle the disc position or the numbered cups as per his wish.
Once it is done now magician takes 4 playing cards from a normal deck numbered 1,2,3 & 4. Mix them randomly and say “ I am going to smash the cups one by one”, we will spell the words S M A S H by counting cards whatever card comes on top that number will get smashed.
Now the spectator spelt word smashes and with each alphabet, he counts the card from top to bottom. For ex. No. 3 comes on top, magician smashes that number cup.
Like this, all three cups get smashed Magically the last number that remains has an egg inside.
This is really cool, it looks completely random to the audience, but it's safe.
If you want to perform a normal routine without cards also you can perform with this set.
This effect is suitable for both magicians and mentalists.
