EXIF: KONICA MINOLTA MAXXUM 5D | 1/200 sec | f 5.6 | 35.0mm (35mm equivalent: 52.0mm) | ISO 100


A few weeks ago I was at a street festival in Troy NY and enjoyed this street magicians's show. He had the crowd laughing and in awe of his magical abilities. Here he was proving how brave this young boy was by having him select a card that he put in a paper bag with the rest of the deck. The he had the boy hold a paper bag in front of himself. He was to hold the bag in front of himself while the magician rammed a large hunting knife into the bag.

The boy held his ground as the adults in the crowd were wondering just how this trick would play out.

In the end, it did; and sure enought the card impaled on the knife was the one the boy picked!

This guy was good!
