Hello Magicians
I am thinking of going to the beach soon at noon, walk up to a stranger at the beach and say; "do you believe in the existence of mermaid? Come let me show you something that will blow your mind...." And suddenly a mermaid appears! But my only challenge right now is that I don't know how to go about mermaid apparition effect. Your recommendation will be highly appreciated. I will be expecting your comments. Thank you |

Drugs.
Make sure you offer the spectator drugs first. |

That should do it. One more note: The fogging agent has a tendency to dissipate rapidly so at the haunted house we mixed a liquid laxative with the solution to make it heavier and dissipate slower. The only drawback is everyone who breaths the fog has loose bowels about 4 hours later. They tend to think it was the food they ate. Others just thought we scared the s**t out of them. Hope this helps.

Just, when you think you have heard it all ... Then, you see a thread like this !
Use a " *UB *RUNK " ! Be sure to wear your mermaid costume under your jacket, strip it off ass you exchange places with your assistant the Sea Turtle ! Stay directly under the sun at high noon to prevent casting shadows to let others know how the effect is done ! First thing tho, be sure to offer your participant drugs, if she hangs around long enough for you to offer drugs to !

I don't know where to begin. . .I do like the drug angle, though.

I was going to give the same suggestion Philemon did. With a professional mermaid and pretty basic illusion craft this would be easy.

May be she only shows her tail
By the way Willie, I'm halfway through your first book. I love it! Cheers, Luc |

How about having the spectator look through a 7 foot by 4 foot "Lubor Lens" at an appropriately placed attractive assistant wearing tights of beach sand color next to a 400 lb upright tuna with its top half covered by a beach sand colored wrap?

While we are on the topic of methods...
I am thinking of going to a church parking lot soon at noon, walk up to a stranger on the asphalt and say; "do you believe in the second coming of the Son of Man? Come let me show you something that will blow your mind...." And suddenly a bearded and robed man floats down from the clouds! But my only challenge right now is that I don't know how to go about literal second coming effect. Your recommendation will be highly appreciated. I will be demanding workable responses. Thank you |

Well raising the dead is something you do all the time Willie. You just need to keep the coffin lift in good working order.
On the topic of the mermaid, sounds like a pilgrimage to see Doc S is in order. |

Bob and Sam were elderly gentlemen and met every day at the park and would sit on the bench, drink coffee, feed the birds, and talk politics; they were good friends. One day, Sam didn't show up and Bob thought, "He's probably got a cold or something." A week goes by and still no Sam. Bob was getting a bit worried, but since they always met at the park, he didn't know where Sam lived so he couldn't check on him. A month passes and still no Sam, so Bob figured he has seen the last of Sam and Willie has taken care of the arrangements. Then one day, Bob goes to feed the birds and there is Sam, sitting on the bench feeding the birds. "Sam, where have you been?" Bob asks. "Jail," Sam replied. "Jail?, what for?" "Well, you know that cute little cashier at the market on the corner of Elm?" "You bet, she is quite a good looking woman." "She accused me of rape and I had to go to court." "Rape? At your age?" "Yep. I'm 89 and when I went to court and the Judge read the charges I felt so proud I pleaded guilty." "So you were sentenced thirty days in jail for Rape?" "Not exactly, the judge looked at me and sentenced me thirty days in jail for lying under oath."
