its just a zombie ball. the ball basically has a rod comin out the back which he holds with his hand and controls the rising and lowerin of the ball, the rod is obviously hidden by the cloth he has. very simple trick but takes practice to get it lookin realistic

[Daddy]

Thanks! Is there any tutorial for this?

not really got a tut, but basically take a spnge ball or styrofoam ball and take a strong piece of wire (unbend a coat hanger) and stick it in the ball, thats the gimmick. its just a case of havein the rod hidden by the hankey then just copy the moves he is doin in the video. make it look as tho ur chasin the ball rather than ur controlin it

[Daddy]

Okay, I can try it... :)
Thx for your support!

Wrong board, should be in magic requests.

The zombie ball is a good trick, you can do it when you go out for dinner, thats the only place I really do it, heres how its done.

First, get the napkin, fork, and a roll. (The fork and napkin should already be provided) Take the napkin, and lap it, without people noticing. Now get the fork, also lap that. Once you get the roll, just lap that, and stick the fork into the roll. (Must be done carefully, dont move to much, will cause attention.) You then hold the fork, right at the edges of the napkin, and your ready to perform. Just rotate the 'zombie ball'whichever ways you like, as long as they dont see the fork, they may see the roll.

Hope this helped!

so the only version of "zombie" you do...is the crappy impromptu version.....

this is a great and classic magic effect.
