Impossible Feats are Now Reality!!!

Use ANY Can to suit your Own Act - Completely New Principle from Mikame
Show a tall slender box and open the hinged Lid proving its empty.
Put a real can of pop or beer inside, as it just fits inside tightly.
Close the Lid the can is secure inside the box.

Show two solid steel 8 x 5 inch blades hitting them together, they are solid!

Insert a blade through one side of the box and out the opposite side.
Now push the second blade through the hole below.
BOTH blades penetrated through the real pop can!!

Now the center section of the box is pushed to the left 'Zigged'.
The can has VANISHED from the box!
So you push the center section back to the middle, and remove the two blades.

To everyone's surprise the pop can is still 100% solid!

@DeepeeMe He is touching it. As soon as he closes the lid his other hand is holding the box by the bottom. There's a mechanism on the underside of the box that tilts the can down onto it's side. After he performs the illusion, he pics the box up with one hand on the bottom and as he's handing it to the spectator he tilts the can back up using the same mechanism.

[DeepeeMe]

So how does he tilt and how does he raise the can, without opening the box?

[DeepeeMe]

I know that the can is layed down on it's side, but how do he 'tilt' it and raise it back up without touching it?

[Rustymetaldog]
