Click here to watch a video of Peter Eggink performing Outsmokin'. Peter picked this trick up from me a few years ago and in the video you'll see a great presentation of this trick.

Just read what they're saying about Outsmokin'!

-Alan Rorrison

"I'm not a smoker but I do carry this trick and perform it. Trust me guys. If you see someone performing this trick, you'll want to be performing it too."

-Mike Powers

"This is one of the best comedy interludes you can perform, whether you are a manipulator, close-up, smoker, or non-smoker! I give it my highest recommendation, and you will too."

-- Mike Giusti, comedy magician

""Outsmokin" is a stroke of genius. Hilarious, Eye-popping magic! I simply love it!"

-- Peter Eggink

"I havent had as much fun fooling people for years, the patter ideas are endless, and the price? Best bargain in magic today"

-Dr. Dark

"Clever. I really enjoyed the cigarette routine. Very Entertaining. Things to improve: I really can't think of anything. Overall I would have paid money to see that routine! (That is my highest compliment)"

--An anonymous judge had someone give me this note after I took first place in Michigan Magic days Close up contest in 2002. The note refers to my entire act but the trick outsmokin is the only trick he mentions.

EFFECT:
The magician decides to take a cigarette break. Just as he's about to light the cigarette he realizes that the cigarette is in his mouth backwards. So he does the obvious and flips the cigarette end for end and puts it back into his mouth. To his surprise the filter is still on the wrong end of the cigarette.

He positions the cigarette at about chest level with the filter end pointing toward his mouth. It seems like he finally got the right end to his mouth but the moment the cigarette touches his lips the filter visually jumps to the other end of the cigarette.

Out of frustration he tears the filter off the cigarette and drops it in his pocket. When the now filterless cigarette is placed into his mouth the filter magically appears on the wrong end of the cigarette again.

On the very last attempt the filter magically jumps to the center of the cigarette. The magician finally gives up and says, "I quit", and this odd looking cigarette is tossed on the table and can be examined.
