Principles of Destruction by Ben Seidman
"I'm speechless."-Mat Franco "I witnessed Ben Seidman destroy an audience of knowledgeable magicians and their discerning spouses with 'The Principles of Destruction'. The routine is fantastic, but the principles are priceless!"-Karl Hein The Principles of Destruction is Ben Seidman’s ultimate audience-shattering routine—refined over years of real-world performances. This multi-phase masterpiece starts with a chosen card rising from the deck in a brilliantly deceptive way. The card then vanishes from their hands, only to reappear beneath them. But the real kicker? A torn corner is kept as proof while the rest of the card vanishes—only to reappear in another spectator’s pocket, a perfect match. Seidman’s expert use of dual reality, seamless blending of powerful effects, and practical handling make this more than just a trick—it’s a mind-blowing experience. Everything is taught in a beautifully produced hardcover book with precise illustrations, plus a bonus video with expert insights.
