Unshackled by Ebbytones

Unshackled is a very brilliant magic effect, the spectator chooses a card (can be signed) and with a hole on it.

Then the magician takes one card (which has two holes on both sides) and the spectator's card is clamped between the folds.

The magician takes a rubber band and inserts it into the hole from behind until it comes out and is tied tightly through the spectator's card.

Strangely when the magician holds the rubber, the spectator pulls the card and the card is free as if it was not shackled with no tears or cuts!

And strangely again the rubber is shown back and forth still tied tightly on the folding card. After the ties are removed the card and rubber can be checked that there is nothing suspicious...

• Fully examinable
• Practical and easy to do.
