I shared this in another thread. But it's very good and I can't wait to share it here! The vanish move is pretty good. I recorded my own vanish down and it doesn't look as clean. Check it out!

Although I'm not a huge fan for the Unseen vanish, the accessory is quite a delight to watch.

Ok, I have either just watched a different demo or I am missing something here.

It states "No 'move' to be seen... not even the slightest!" This is simply not true - as far as I am concerned there is far too much movement with the right hand. Also the way the hand pulled away in a snatching action is not natural and high suspect.

Why would anyone learn this when a retention vanish done well is far more effective??

Actually, I didn't say anything before because I feel the same way. The vanish is unnatural. There's nothing natural about it. I personally wouldn't use it. Not to say it's a bad vanish... it's just very suspicious to me!

It doesn't seem like either hand takes it or leaves it. There's a coin. A hand closes over it. And it's gone. One hand seems to place it while the other seems to take it. It's neither, which is the problem.

Mickey Silver's vanish is the ultimate.

I'd agree as well. Smile

Really sorry but... isn't that a standard retention vanish?

I liked Accessory Flight. I'll probably get some piercings so I can do this. Does it have to be an ear?

No, but it is definitely a variation.

This is closer to the "standard"... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_dbgCtnFCZg

Thanks lorenwade, I guess by "standard" I meant a variation of the RV. Cheers.

First I thought in this "Unseen" one the dirty stuff is happening "down south". But after viewing it a couple times I see something different now. This really could be motion-less, if it is what I think it is...

Ahh! Gotcha. There's no real advantage of having "no motion" here... I do think it's a cool vanish, but frankly... it needs some motion!

I just fooled around a little and recorded this a minute ago. Nothing to do with the Unseen vanish, just how I sometimes do it. It's 2am so it's not really too enthusiastic or very magical in particular...

Nothing against the creator-i'm sure he's a fabolous magician, but I do not like this technique. He's trying to "hide" the finger motion as oppose to making it invisible to the mind and eye.

I'm sure he has succes. In fooling people with it, but not my cup of tea.

Yikes, what a move.
I absolutely don't like it.
It looks very unnatural, people will get supicious.

I am not sure what you guys are seeing. It seems to be the Roth RV move. He is holding it up high, probably to get it into the video frame, but otherwise it is well done. He does have minimum finger movement and that is what we all strive for.
