Hi
I came up with a way of doind the zig-zag with a transparent plexi front where you can see the boy of the assistent all the time during the illusion??

Is this new or have you heard about it before?

Thanks
Alex

Alex,

Can the zig zag be done in a deceptive manner? The only clear zig zag that I have ever heard of is the one that Penn and Teller showed. There may be another one, but I'm curious bout what you may have! PM me or post! Hope to hear from you sometime!

Hi Alex,

That sounds an interesting development in the Zig-Zag story. I've not heard of anyone doing it before.

Keep us informed!

Never heard of it myself, but sounds very creative. I like the idea. Go for it.

I beleive Michelangelo has developed a method for this, in his "Prismbodied Princess." With some slight alterations you could have a transparent Zig Zag.

Does your Transparent Zig-Zag remain transparent all the time?

This is skewing off-topic, buy I have to ask it anyway : When did Penn & Teller do a clear Zig-Zag ?

Thay didn't, I think he's referring tithetrick thatt they invented which they then exposed. iT involved Teller being cut in to three pieces.
