The Secret Box

Post by Rob Rand » Fri Aug 29, 2014 7:07 pm

Here's another magic effect : a small round metal box and when you rattle it, your hear that something's inside.
But after opening it, there's nothing in the box.

This reminds me very much of the Nothing Box, which was not examinable. Magic Makers, the manufacturer of this box, claims that it is examinable.
In the accompanying video they pretend they invented a world miracle.

Is this a true miracle?

This sure looks A LOT like their previous release ... . And that was also examinable if you ditched the gimmick. But I could be mistaking!

Ok after seeing a performance in Magic Shop TV (and they even show part of the instructions) it clearly is the regular The Nothing Box aka The Magic Rattle Box ... EXACTLY the same (apart from instructions and packaging of course), just a new name.

Here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mL6KgQvuHGw - strats at +/- 8:00 .

Yes this is the Nothing Box, and he (Ron) palms the gimmick in a very casual way. So, they should have called it the Nothing New Box :)
