FIT

Performed by Chris James

Imagine borrowing a coin and a ring and asking one of your spectators to push the coin through the ring...they can verify for themselves - the coin DOES NOT FIT through the ring.

With just a little imagination, the performer defies physics and visually pushes the coin through the ring directly in front of the spectators' faces!

This is a stunningly visual penetration of solid metal through solid metal.

The coin and ring can be immediately returned to the spectator who can again verify that the coin DOES NOT FIT through the ring.

FIT includes a gimmicked quarter and a gimmicked nickel to fit a variety of finger rings. With these two coins you can use finger rings ranging from women's size 5 to men's size 12 1/2.

Some sleight of hand required to perform as shown in the video.

Overview

I haven’t been in magic my whole life like many others but I’ve been in it long enough to think I’ve seen just about every gimmick out there, especially when it comes to coin gimmicks. When you think about it, how much can you do to a coin, but yet someone comes out with another idea which makes you say “why didn’t I think of that”. Fit by Paul Carnazzo is one of those “why didn’t I think of that” gimmicks.

Effect

The performer borrows a coin from a spectator. He plainly shows the coin cannot pass through a ring. The spectators can all give it a try. But, slowly and methodically the performer takes their coin and magically pushes it through the ring which was obviously too small moments ago.

Method

The method involved uses a modified coin and a tiny bit of sleight of hand. You are provided with two coins to perform the effect, a quarter and a nickel which will allow you to perform this with almost any ring. If you want to perform Fit you will have to become comfortable with a coin switch.

Product Quality

The coins are regular coins so there is no quality issue there. The modification to the coins seemed decent as well. The instructional download is only about 8 minutes long and does cover all that is necessary for you to learn the effect. The photography, light and sound are all adequate.

Ad Copy Integrity

The ad copy is very up front. The ad also states that some sleight of hand is involved which is blatantly honest. As performed, the effect will look as claimed.

Final Thoughts

This product is surprisingly priced very fairly. Hats off to Paul Carnazzo for delivering a quality product at a fair price.
