Twisting Arm Illusion 

Unleash the power of illusion with this unique free discovery which allows you to master the secret of arm twisting 360 degrees made famous by David Blaine , with incredible results .
EFFECT:
After asking a spectator to copy the action of you putting your hand on the table, you are able to twist your arm a full 360 degrees while others look at you in disbelief
PREPARATION:
Just a long sleeve shirt. everything else is impromptu.
METHOD:
THE SECRET MOVE (WITH THE RIGHT HAND): on the table, have your fingers pointing towards your body. this may seem a bit uncomfortable, but the effect is well worth it , now, you should have your fingers pointing to the left , now turn your palm up (still having the fingers pointing left) but keep turning the hand over the same way until it is face down again.
With a long sleeve shirt, it looks as if your hand is just turned sideways to the left ( in reality, it's twisted 270 degrees to the right).
METHOD:
Hand on the table (or sidewalk... wherever you want to perform).Tell him to do exactly what you're doing and start slowly twisting your arm COUNTERCLOCKWISE.
When your fingers start to point to the left, distract him from what you're doing , say something like
"you're doing it wrong; do exactly what I'm doing!" or "maybe you should back up a bit to get a better view of my directions." With that , point to his hand or push him away a bit with your other hand , and do the secret move while his eyes are concentrated on himself. When you have the secret move done , it's a simple matter of him trying to do what you're doing again. but little does he know you're simply UNTWISTING your arm instead of twisting it like himself.
By putting a plastic cup or hard cellophane tucked under your armpit , you can make a bone crunching noise by pressing gently as you twist your arm to add to the effect. This trick is very clearly explained in the Twisting arm illusion video of Meir Yedid which can be ordered online. It will allow you to perform this fantastic illusion to great effect very quickly.

PSYCHO KINETIC TIME 

Effect
A watch is borrowed, the magician does not carry anything! After showing the watch to those nearby who notice the current time, you place the watch face down in the spectator's hand. His hand is closed over the watch. The magician doesn't not touch the watch again. The magician then asks the spectator to name a number and then to concentrate on that number and the watch. He opens his hand, turns over the watch and sees that the hands of the watch have moved that many minutes! This trick does not require any gimmicks.
Props: Someone wearing an analogue watch (a watch with an long stem that's easy to manipulate quickly. i.e.: SEIKO watches)
Preparation: You need to wear a watch of your own with the wrong time.
Method: Ask your victim for his watch with an excuse like, "I think my time is wrong can I see yours for a second?"
Borrow the watch for a minute and examine it look at it, state what time it has, and say, "is this the right time, I need to know."
Now glance at the time on YOUR watch, and draw attention to it by setting its time. While they looking at you, set the time on YOUR watch. Your other hand is moving their stem so THEIR time moved forward 25 minutes. Now have them sandwich their watch between their hands, and ask them to pick a number from 10 through 30. Most people will pick 25 if they pick 20, they won't notice it's off by five minutes when you reveal that the hands of their watch have moved forward in time.... If they pick something below that number, tell them to make it harder, and pick a higher number. It gets them everytime... just remember to give a great patter when doing this trick.
TIPS: I recommend trying to do this on nervous or shy people so they don't know what you're doing. The key to this trick is misdirection , but it's very easy to get caught.

ACE SHAKE 

This trick was performed in David Blaines second special where he made the spectator sign a card , the card was put back in the pack and was made to appear from between two aces.
Secret: Give the spectator , the two red aces and tell them to hold them.
Fan out the deck and tell the spectator to touch a card. Square the deck up leaving their card stuck out to be signed and shown.
This is because you secretly put the card into "palm position" when you square up the deck so you can easily palm the card when you want to.
It must stick out of the lower corner of the pack meeting your inner thumb .
Let them sign the card and then hand them the deck , secretly palming their card.
After they are convinced that the card is well lost in the deck , ask for the two aces and sandwich the face down palmed card between the aces , showing only the aces face up.
Tell them to hold the deck openly and start to shake the aces directly over the pack , tell them to watch their card rise from the deck into the two aces , shake a little more loosely and the card will appear to their amazement .

PAUL XENON TAX DISC REMOVAL SECRET 

Effect: The magician invites a spectator to stand near a car , he then asks the spectator to check that the car tax disc is inside the windscreen.
The spectator agrees , the magician then places his hands over the disc and pulls it out through the solid glass.
Preparation: This trick needs a long piece of fishing line , two identical tax discs , a car and a spectator.
Method: Attach a piece of fishing line to the tax disc inside the car and run it out to the trunk and out to the back of the car. Have your assistant ducking down behind the back of the car holding the line, where the spectator cannot see him.
Palming the duplicate disc, the spectator is asked to check that the disc is inside the car.
With the disc in your right hand, cover the tax disc with your hands .
This is your cue to the assistant.
He pulls the line and keeps pulling until the disc is ripped of the windscreen and pulled right inside the trunk at the back and out of view of the spectators. Meanwhile , you pretend to struggle to pull the disc from inside the car , hand it to the spectator and casually walk off.
It is good to really look like your putting a lot of effort into getting the tax disc through the windscreen.

COIN BITE AND RESTORED COIN 

David Blaine performed this extremely effective trick where a coin was bitten and a piece removed.
The coin was restored when the missing piece was seemingly spat out at it.
This trick was used using a very cleverly engineered coin which is available from a lot of good magic suppliers and is switched for the spectators coin.
You can do your own version of the trick by making your own trick coin by looking at the coin trick section of this site.
