Bubble Gum Magic by James Coats and Nicholas Byrd - Volume 1

Sunday April 8, 2007
As the name implies, this DVD, which is the first of two, focuses on tricks that use chewing gum. Some tricks require a glob of gooey gum straight from the mouth (yuck) while others are adaptations of classic close-up effects that have been applied to gum packs.

While the idea of performing magic with bubble gum may sound new and fresh, the effects are mostly derivatives of established tricks that may not necessarily play any better than the originals they’re based on. As a result, this DVD is a mixed bag. The only effect that stood out for me as having merit was the card into sealed gum pack.
