Ok, David Blaine did that cool-looking electrified stunt. But, this is different; I’m going to teach you how to make a bolt of lightning strike anywhere. An actual bolt of lighting — for real — striking the ground wherever you like at the exact moment you choose.

This is the kind of stunt I would happily pitch in a writing room to big name magicians. Instead, I’m sharing it on this newsletter. Is part of the reason I’m so willing to share this because it’s unlikely any of us can afford to produce this stunt? Absolutely. Do I still want you to book me to consult if you do bring this stunt to life? Absolutely.

By sharing this with you, I hope to share how many of the most incredible magic stunts get conceived; someone saw a cool YouTube video one time.

To be absolutely clear — I’m about to share the scientific method for making a lightning bolt strike the ground on cue. Here we go.
