This extremely popular effect was first released in 1992. It has been a solid staple of Kevin’s shows since it's creation. Many magicians worldwide perform this effect now. Kevin taught it to David Copperfield and he has used it for many years in his TV and live performances with great success, especially on Broadway.
This DVD includes the previous released information plus an hour of new ideas that have been developed over the last 15 years by Kevin and his friends.
The magician invites a lady from the audience to participate. He crumples a paper napkin into a little ball. It begins to dance on his hand and then up and down his arm. He then transfers his power to the spectator and she is able to command the ball to dance too.
He then opens the paper ball show that there is nothing inside. The magician folds the napkin into a paper rose and the flower magically stands up on his open hand!!! It then floats right in front of the magician and spectator. He passes his hands around the floating rose and lights it on fire. In a flash, it visibly changes into a real rose!!! He then gives the rose to the volunteer as she returns to her seat.
This DVD comes with a generous supply of Kevin's own invisible thread.
Finn Jon says, "I've seen lots of thread effects and forgotton most. Kevin's Floating Rose is unforgetable."
