Alan Wong and Ashton Carter have taken mutual deep interest in this effect and turned it into wonder filled performances.
Your participant picks up all three blocks and then picking up the top block to discover it weighs more than all three blocks. It defies science, logic and they experience real astonishment!
Ashton Carter is a professional magician from the UK and has been performing this effect for over eight years. He has created customized routines that can fit almost any performance style, in this dedicated book 'Magician's Guide To The Baffling Blocks' which includes ten full routines and five variations, tried and tested for real audiences by Ashton, including his full street show script that can earn you the cost of the effect in less than one hour of performing in a busking situation. Also included are:
- How Ashton use the blocks to get drinks and coffee bought for him.
- How to prove the existence of fairies for children.
- Routines focused on comedy, mentalism, hypnosis, bizarre magic and seances.
- The history of the effect
- An essay on the science behind the effect
- Re-framing the magic for different audiences and situations
- A Q&A session where Ashton talks further about his approach to the blocks

Talk about a trick that does all the work. All you have to do is order them and you’re done. The effect will be baffling and will have your spectator babbling, “What the F#@$!” It cannot truly be explained as it fools the senses. It’s fun, it’s perplexing and it’s real magic! Steve R
Hi Steve, Thank you for your review! it's great when an item is so easy to use! You can spend all your time working on the presentation! When I saw this trick I thought oh interesting. Maybe you could use this to stress the difference between a physisist and an astrophysisist. In physics gravity is simple, the planet provides the greatest pull for people becuase people are small and the Earth is massive!. In Astrophysics there are all sorts of caveats! There is Quantum Gravity, spooky action at a distance, worm holes, and much more! Here we have an item that can tell if you are a physicist or an astrophysisist! The more I thought about it the more fun the story got! I'd love to hear how you present it! What did you do?
