My Top 10 Tenyo Magic Tricks:

  1. Invisible Zone: The magician takes a pen and sticks it through the Invisible Zone case. When the case is opened the centre of the pen is totally invisible. My absolute favourite, and I have 5 of them... somewhere!

  2. Zig Zag Cigarette: A seemingly ordinary cigarette is placed inside a plastic case and visibly zig-zagged in three pieces, only to be instantly restored. A visual masterpiece, which has regrettably been copied so many times.

  3. Crystal Cleaver: A plastic sword penetrates through a solid metal ring, seemingly defying the laws of physics.

  4. Bird Watcher: You divine how many birds are inside of a closed case, without looking.

  5. Card Surgery: A selected card is cut-up and you re-join the same into a single card!

  6. Match-Sticks: A several phase number prediction with 8 seemingly ordinary numbered sticks. This was one of the first tricks that I bought from Roy Walton in his shop, Tam Shepherds in Glasgow, aged 12.

  7. Twister: A real pencil is seemingly twisted in the centre and then show restored.

  8. Squeeze Play: A solid plastic block is squeezed through a small hole, a visual impossibility that defies explanation.

  9. Crystal Pyramid: The pyramid is covered with a small handkerchief, and a moment later. A borrowed coin has vanished from an alter and is inside the box inside the crystal pyramid!

  10. Eye of The Idol: The spectator points to a gem and the idol turns to find it. This is super rare and I am lucky to have a copy in mint condition!

The above list represents just a fraction of the mesmerizing tricks offered by Tenyo Magic.
