Has anybody tried this new product of his yet? http://seanbogunia.com/extremehanky/ It's a dancing handkerchief routine in which you put a hanky in a bottle, cork it and hand it to spectators in the audience. It actually continues to dance in their hands. It sure looks neat, but it also seems almost ridiculously expensive. Has anyone tried this yet?

I started a thread on this product a while ago, after seeing Sean's video, and also after seeing a Facebook post by Shawn Farquhar talking about it. I've also seen a neat video by Joe Romano that had the prop in it.

The fact that both Shawn and Joe bought this and are using it, is more than enough to convince me that it's a worthwhile investment. I hope I get the money to buy one before Sean stops making them (they are a limited quantity item).

As a proud owner of this, I would say this is not over priced. It is expensive but not over priced.
I am working on the routine I will use now and I have shown a few people just my rehearsal videos and they are floored. This was the first thing in a long time that was just plan magic to me when I saw it.
I can not wait to get into the show. November 1st will be the day.

Any chance that you could show us any of the rehearsal videos? If not, I certainly understand. Just out of curiosity, are you combining it with other dancing hank effects of his, or is this going to be the full act by itself?

I have not decided if I will share my routine or not. I have not finished coming up with what will be the final routine and my current videos are similar to the one on the Extreme Hanky website and Shawn Farquhar's.
I will not be using any of the other dancing hank effects with my routine. The main reason is I do not own them but they also have some set requirements. I did this in my living room to my wide and kids and they were floored.

Can anything else be achieved with effect- besides dancing in the bottle, and flying out at the end?

I would contact Sean Bogunia with that question. I do not want to give too many details about how this prop works and/or any possible limitations. I plan to use as a dancing handkerchief that can be displayed directly under the spectators nose. I think this will be extremely powerful. Your question did give me an idea though. The short answer is that I think this can be used for more than a dancing hank but I haven't even tried to come up with other ideas as I bought as a dancing hank.

Thanks for the info, hope it works out for you.

I think you need an assistant, would love this new dancing hank, but I work alone, the remote looks too big.

You do not have to have an assistant for the Extreme Hanky. I also work alone and will be using this in my show by myself.

I bought 2 sets of this. It is so easy to perform. My 7 year old son is performing this in my shows.

It's magic!!!

The regular price for the Extreme Hanky is $2499.00. You bought TWO??? Five THOUSAND dollars! OMG. I keep forgetting...people here have $$$. Ha! Never in my lifetime...

Practised with my Extreme Hanky for a few days... I will try it in an actual show for the first time next weekend.

Performing it as a stand alone puppetry routine...

You are very brave, I do not know or heard of anyone mastering this effect and routine in a week. Most take months to perfect it. I wish you well and a successful act.

Would appreciate a video your 1st time performance.

It's not difficult at all

I'm guessing you might be pertaining to the dancing hanky routine which I find quite difficult to perform and yes that routine will require longer practise. It's a combination of several Bogunia products...

But the one I am performing will be just the extreme hanky. It does require some practise but it's easier than you think.

Performed with my Extreme Hanky for the first time yesterday... and it went quite well.
No difficult moves... no difficult set up... lots of ooohs and wows... t was a fun routine.

Thanks to my friend Lou Hilario for giving me some handling tips... and thanks to the creative mind of Sean Bogunia.

Here is a bit of the routine, a lot more happens:
