SUMAG Hydrostatic Glass Hunging Water in The Cup Magic Tricks with Instruction Stage Close Up Gimmick Props Comedy Liquid Remains in Glass Magic

I bought this to have some fun with my friends, none of them figured it out until I told them as they did not see the clear cap. If you are looking for a cool trick this is it.

The magic effect is great. You have to develop your own routine but the effect is very good. I took off one star because the amount of water is small. It may be due to the way it works, but if you use a bottled water with that amount in it, you can just shrug it off as just enough to do the trick as you drank most of it.

A real nice effect. When I was a kid I got a trick that allowed you to put water in a glass soda bottle and turn it over and no water would run out. You could then stick a toothpick into the mouth of the bottle and it would float up. This is the same concept. Put water in a glass, turn it over, and the water does not run out until you want it to. Both the glass and the gimmick are plastic. There is a small hole near the bottom of the glass, which would be a give away, so it must be concealed. I like the routine on the listing. Scooping up water from a bowl, dumping out some water as proof, is great. However, I would be worried that when the water is released from the glass the gimmick would be visible in the glass bowl. Bottom line: real nice trick requiring no magic skills such as sleight of hand. Easy to use, nicely made, and will surely mystify the kids. Functions well, and well worth the cost.

Works just as it should. Fun gimmick for a child or beginning magician.
