Introducing Hair-A-Copter Card! This is Scroll Number Four in the Pro-Magic Wand Scroll series. It’s a bizarre way to perform Bob Hummer’s famous floating card trick, especially if you are performing for magicians who know the secret. Gimmicks and instructions rolled up inside a Magic Wand Scroll.
Get back to the roots of one of the most famous tricks in history. The floating, spinning card—known by such names as Helicopter Card, Hummer Card, and UFO Card—is even popular among laymen. But many people are unaware it was invented by the eccentric Bob Hummer, who suggested magicians use a long human hair to perform the trick.
In Hair-A-Copter Card, the magician admits he was inspired by Bob Hummer’s legendary, yet impractical method, and reveals a two-foot-long hair on his own head curled up and ready to go. The magician unrolls the lengthy lock, and demonstrates the trick with salon-like skill.
But what if you get caught? You don’t want to break the hair to make a clean getaway. After all, it took you years to grow it to that length. In a funny display of freak show magic, you actually—visibly—suck the hair back into your head, thwarting any wise guy spectators. And when the coast is clear, the hair crawls back out of your head to finish the trick!
- Memorable magic, hair we go!
- Easy to do! Hard not to do! Hairdo!
- Even more amazing if you’re bald!
- Watch your spectators wig out!
