Default Richard Osterlind: Perfected Center Tear booklette

I recently recieved my perfected center tear book! I hope you will sit back and read my review as I am about to spend a considerable about of time on it

The "Look" of the Book

Now usually I dont care about what a book looks like, but I'm sort of dissapointed, I knew it wouldnt be hard covered. But I also didnt like that it was spiral bound. Idk, if you guys would care but personally, (bought it for like $20 bucks so I hope it actualy holds up)

The Perfected Center Tear 5/5 (the teaching wasnt good, but what I got out of it was worth the price of the book!)

Well, as most people could watch Richard Osterlind's Mind Mysteries Vol. 1 and figure out what he meant, I couldnt. So I read this and came up with my own version of the center tear...weird! I was attempting to learn the real thing, and I thought I had it figured out, but in reality I had actually just made on up. So, after doubting myself for about and hour, I sat back down and really tried to learn it. Well...the pictures are...confusing, but then after sitting down with it about 10 mins later (about 3 note pads later also) I thought I had it figured out, and little did I know this time I did. (If you get this, just sit down with it) If you already do own it and dont understand how to do the second tear, all you want to do is rip it down the center STRAIGHT after you do the first tear (dont swivel your hands like you do on the first tear for the second one!)

And the last couple sentences is what I was doing wrong with the center tear for those couple hours lol

Swami/Nail Writer 5/5 (has 2 excellent tricks, along with an alternative to using a boon thumb tip)

There Is a two page long part of the book on a nail writer. It tells you a simple alternative to an ink writing nail writer, and a simple trick on how to write someones birthday (it looks like real mind reading) And it teaches another trick where you have a folded peice of paper the whole time. The spectator rolls two die and on the inside of the paper is your prediction with the total of the two die together.

Other Tricks 5/5 (some of these tricks are WILD!)

There are some other tricks that are pretty neat, putting your spectator into a trance, moving a pen with your mind, (just to name a few) These are pretty cool

The Ultimate Center Tear 3/5 (my hands are too small)

This center tear is also taught in the book, the same thing as the perfected center tear comes out of the tear, but there is a different method. The method taught here requires larger hands and I dont have the biggest hands, (so I wont be doing this any time soon)

If you didnt understand Richard Osterlinds MInd Mysteries vol. 1 (the part where he teaches the center tear) than I honestly suggest buying this.

Orrrr...you can wait a while because I might be uploading it soon.

Thanks for reading!
