Carrington, a noted investigator of psychic claims, describes the celebrated feats of Indian street conjurors as a spectator would see them, then explains how each is done. The mango-tree trick, the basket trick, sands that come out of water dry, coloured sugars, the jumping egg, snake-charming and the burial of a living man are all taken apart.
A short, entertaining exposé for amateur magicians and anyone curious about how the famous tricks worked. Download the free EPUB.
