Here is a peek into True Astonishments :
DVD 1
Twilight Angels: Wayne Houchin performs a beautiful rendition of this
classic PH effect. Paul has said repeatedly that this may BE his all time favorite
effect.
Backlash 2: Paul and TA director Bro Gilbert took one of one of the
most popular effects from the Art Of Astonishment books tore it apart, rebuilt
it from the ground up and pumped up the ending till it explodes.
New Leaf: Another ingenious organic piece of strange from Paul and
Bro. This new version of Leaf moves into the spectator's hands completely, and
with a simple rubbing, everything becomes whole again. The next time you're
in the middle of the woods and someone asks to see something magical you've
got a lifetime supply of props and a beautiful little moment to share.
Cheng's Change: This is mind-blowing. Perform Zapped! with normal cards.
Five cards visually morph into fine different cards right under their noses.
Did we mention NO GIMMICKS?
Big Tiny: A spectator's signature reassembles itself and multiplies
in their hands. They honest-to-god truly mix up the cards and then the ink morphs
into their name.
DVD 2
The New Las Vegas Leaper: Ok, this is so brilliant and so simple! Basically,
you do the original PH routine with some new touches and add a whole new twist
to end on. You'll kick yourself for not having thought of it.
Tubular: Paul's impromptu miracle where two signed bills impossibly
morph into one bill with both names... all in the spectator's hands.
Cheng's Riser: The card visually and slowly rises towards the top. Then
with barely a wave of the hand it melts right through to the very top. No gimmicks,
just beautiful methodology.
Growing Card by Tomoyuki Shimmura: This bizarre piece of strange happens
in full view. A card visibly squishes out of shape as it slowly stretches and
grows to twice its size in full view. Beautifully performed and taught by Robert
Smith.
DVD 3
Casanova Inc: Steve Haynes contributes two streamlined elegant handlings
of his breakthrough Casanova Concept with business cards.
Half Moon Trading Company: Paul has devised a brand new principle that
is guaranteed to expand your mind using a normal card case and a borrowed imagination.
Half Moon Voodoo: A new re-wired version of Guy Hollingsworth's Voodoo
Card that ups the happy and glad quotient. You can show the deck freely before
the start of the trick. There's nothing to find.
Pack of Lies: A brand new look at the PH Vanishing Deck. Bro's knock-out
handling will forever change how we vanish our decks.
Solid with Happy Ending: Paul's completely new method for the classic
Solid Deception. The deck goes solid just like before but this time the cards
happily undo themselves.
DVD 4
Dr. Fun: After over forty attempts Paul finally nailed this biggie that
has all the impact of Deep Astonishment and The Anything Deck, except you can
use ANY deck. Imagine the emotional impact when you are able to predict the
happiest moment of someone's life!
Name Dropper: A spectator is able to mysteriously and visually print
her own name.
Lubor's Lens: This is the definitive work on Reality Twister. For everyone
out there who just couldn't figure out the right presentation for this, the
wait is over. Along with a brand new presentation, you get your very own Lubor's
Lens included with the set.
Naked Strange: Paul's immaculate gimmickless, impromptu version of Strange
Travelers. Simple, powerful and true.
Gerard's Warp: Andrew Gerard adds a new psychological twist and turn
to Card Warp that left Paul and Bro speechless. Andrew warped their minds so
thoroughly, they had to go back to the tape and re-examine what they thought
had happened.
DVD 5
Transcendental Bar Bet: Transcendental Bar Bet: This is the PH completely
hands off, in your face (and on the table), card vanish. Oh yeah, the deck is
completely normal and you never touch it during the vanish. The spectator actually
vanishes the card herself.
Extraordinary Proof: Andrew Gerard is back with a self-working Stop
masterpiece that leave your holding your favorite spectator's hand. All you
have to do is show up and deal.
Tensegrity: Patrick Snowden's strange improbably balanced card sculptures
have been pumped up to a new gravity-defying level. Can be done anywhere, surrounded,
etc. A true piece of strange that leaves one dangling from the crumbling edge.
Reswindled: PH's hand picked choice as the definitive version of Reset.
Caleb Wiles has come up with the real work. The two piles never touch and he's
added a fully integrated big finish!
DVD 6
Smoking Eye: This beautiful feature PH creation with a couple of signed
examined matches was inspired by Paul's kid sister Janet when, after surgery,
wisps of smoke began coming out of her eyeball.
The Weirdling: Michael Weber has taken a stack of those coffee cards
you get at your favorite local java joint and flipped them inside out. Comes
with your own special coffee cards.
Ripped and Fryed: Charlie Frye has come up with the most incredible
Torn And Restored Technology to date! Whether you play with this in the mirror
or on the town, you will love doing this!
Cellmates: Meet your soulmate!. She gets your number, you get hers and
you both share plenty of laughs along the way. Cellmates is Paul's no-pressure
romance inducer with a no-worry ending that puts the odds in your favor.
DVD 7
Water Trap: Bro Gilbert's unimaginably cool new approach to Doug Bennett's
signed- coin- in- matchbook plot. A genuine breakthrough new method that allows
you to improv the prep with a normal matchbook in ten seconds!
Dunn's Deal: Shaun Dunn presents his version of Galaxy. This time, the
spectator is shuffling her whole way through the entire effect. Just when they
think it's all over... you tell her to shuffle again.
Invisible Palm by Wayne Houchin: You've seen the video of Wayne performing
this for years, now learn all the finesse and handling he's brought to this
PH classic.
Truly Screwed: This is the new and improved Improv Screwed Deck. Incredibly
visual and a treat for your fingers. And the really screwy thing here, is the
worse you do the key move here the better it looks.
DVD 8
Belly Button: This is Paul's unbelievable brainstorm for doing card
through window with a campaign-type button.. using the spectator's own shirt
as the window!
SOS: Paul's new version of Color Stunner is more streamlined, simplified
and simply a better more joyous thing.
Muscle Bend: A borrowed coin bend that starts and ends with empty hands.
Involves a mystery "organic ungimmicked gimmick" that will change the way you
bend coins forever.
Unstable Label: Andrew Gerard's "Label to Inside of Bottle" with no
palming or gimmicks. Perform with a normal bottle in a moment's notice.
DVD 9
TA Pen. Having fun yet? This 9th and final DVD includes a special PH
custom gimmick which will not be available separately for quite a while. What
is the TA pen? It's a new gimmick that makes immaculately clean bill changes,
switches, and animations. Everything about the pen is self-contained and can
even be handled and used as a normal pen by spectators.
If you thought this is all enough to keep you busy for a couple of years, you'd
be right. But there is one last final thing on DVD 9: Paul's very own Angel
Cake. Angel Cake is… a slightly troubling once-in-a-lifetime principle.
This slice of ph cake almost definitely will give you some sleepless nights
contemplating the philosophical implications of this karmically loaded astonishment.
Angel Cake is...a brand new theory in bill changes that allows you to....well,
you'll just have to find out for yourself.
Paul Harris' True Astonishments... the truth is finally out !
