I came across thid dvd in one of the magic websites and the content got me interested.

It's Brain Damage by Maxime Montier and the contents are:

=Torn and Restored "Carte"
-one of the most convincing piece-by-piece torn and restored cards...ever!
Freak Coins
-3 dollars change into 3 Chinese coins
Linked Chinese Coins
-3 Chinese coins visibly penetrate a string
Simply 3 Fly
-A very strong and clean version of "Three Fly"
Plus a Surprise Bonus

Does anybody here in the Café have this dvd. Please write me a review on this item dvd. I am interested in it.

I have it. I don't like it.
I am not home to watch it again and give you a detailed review but I remember some things.

T&R card: seems like a "tiny" variation on the Hollingworth's routine. Needs special set-up.

Linked chinese coins: If you have Charmin chinese Chellenge, then, stick to it and think from there. Nothing that could compare with that in "Brain damage".

3-fly: gimmicked version which, IMHO, doesn't add anything to the plot. If I remember well, the gaff is a s***l.

Well, I cannot go into details here because I only watched it 2 or 3 times... quite a long time ago. But what I can say is that there is FAR better material on the market.
Bye,
Jonathan.

The DVD is not good. The explanation is not really in-sync with what is going on on screen. The material is just OK.

Thanks for the advice. I was planning on purchasing it. Now I'm thinking twice.
