Pen bending? You’re kidding right?

Mirage, very aptly titled.  Do you know what that great oasis in the desert looks like?  Me neither!  At first I thought I saw a great trick here, but then it vanished just like evaporating water in the desert.

Simply you are supposed to, with your mind, bend a normal plastic pen, right under their noses.  This sounded fine to me, in fact almost exciting.  I tried it on my kids (in low light, just after they had eaten) and they were silent!  A complete confounded confusion!  They couldn’t believe that they had just seen an amazing feat of dad’s mind.  So with great gusto I took it into the public arena.

That is where all my hopes for this trick were baked in the 150 degree sun.  After that first performance with my children there was no way of ever reproducing that reaction.  I got just the complete opposite reaction from there on.  People even told me exactly how I did it.  That is just not even cool!

I did discover that the trick worked in low light.  So if you work in a haze filled low-light bar you may have a shot here . . . depending on how many shots your patrons have had.

Sadly, or was it on purpose, I have no idea whom to discredit here.  This is a complete cave in.  Save your money!
