And for every version, spectators around the world lost their collective minds. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's a plot that just works. Take something familiar, make it become something impossible, and watch the moment work its magic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo Craig Petty and Lloyd Barnes started asking themselves a simple question:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHow do we take this idea even further?\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe answer was \u003cb\u003eFUEL\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eImagine having a card selected and signed. The card is lost back into the deck, as you place a lighter you've been using the entire show into their hands.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe card vanishes from the deck... as you say...\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Would it be amazing if your card appeared UNDER the lighter in your hands...\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Would it be amazing if your card appeared INSIDE the lighter?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Would it be amazing if your card BECAME the lighter?\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's a statement that makes absolutely no sense. They SAW the lighter go into their hand, and they STILL FEEL it sitting there! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut when they open their hands, the lighter is gone. The piece of rigid plastic, flint, and lighter fluid has become a piece of wobbly card paper, with a lighter print on one side, and their \u003cb\u003esignature on the other.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is \u003cb\u003eFUEL\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe get it. We were completely skeptical at first too. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHow does a spectator not feel the difference between a lighter and a piece of paper?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWatch the trailer.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt includes every single performance we filmed of Fuel because every reaction was insane! Not a single one hit the cutting room floor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e I personally walked into that filming session questioning Craig and Lloyd's sanity, but I walked out a true believer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd this part is even crazier to me... Craig didn't even use a real lighter for most of those performances! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo real lighter to have to manage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo awkward switch.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo need to light anything beforehand to convince them that it's real. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo be fair, he does teach you how to switch a lighter in and out of play in the tutorial, but you'll see from the trailer performances that it simply isn't necessary.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo what do you actually get with \u003cb\u003eFUEL\u003c\/b\u003e?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou receive \u003cb\u003e40 fuel gimmicks\u003c\/b\u003e, 20 big lighter gimmicks, and 20 mini lighter gimmicks. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd each gimmick is designed to accomplish to different versions of the effect.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe big lighter is built for the \u003cb\u003evisual change\u003c\/b\u003e. You hold the lighter in your hands and, they stare right at the lighter in your hand until the moment you decide to unfold it to reveal their signature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe mini lighter is built for the \u003cb\u003ein the hands version\u003c\/b\u003e. It goes into the spectator's hands, where they're convinced that they are holding a lighter, until they open their hands to discover it is their signed playing card.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwo completely different experiences built around the same beautifully simple idea:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eA lighter becomes their signed card...\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCraig Petty and Lloyd Barnes took a plot that already gets incredible reactions and found a way to make the final moment even more fire.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYour spectator's see a lighter, and they are convinced that they are holding nothing more than a lighter.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUntil they open their hands and discover the impossible.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eThis is FUEL.\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Murphy's Studio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55598932820287,"sku":"FUEL_BARNES","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/1792\/0319\/files\/79648-full.png?v=1789657465","url":"https:\/\/rpmagicshop.com\/products\/fuel-by-lloyd-barnes-and-craig-petty","provider":"RPMagic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
