A book test that re-writes the rules on book tests.

“A great trick… a wonderful, wonderful baffling trick!” Penn Jillette

From Ryan Schlutz, creator of False Anchors, comes an amazing new effect that will surprise and delight every audience.

Random Happenings is a “destructive” book test that is not like other book tests. Your spectator does not just open a book and choose a word. Instead they get to tear the book apart, ripping pages out as they go until a a selection has been made. It’s an incredibly memorable experience that feels as random and fair as possible.

Here’s the best part. The book completely resets just minutes after being torn apart. You’ll even get enough materials for more than 100 performances, including an extra totally different book cover and pages. Pack both books with you and you can instantly repeat the trick.

This fun presentation adds a ton of texture to standard book tests and will fit right into your current close-up magic, parlor magic or stage magic set. It’s super easy to do.

Each set comes with 2 book covers (8.5in x 5.5in) and 150 pages. This book cover can even be customized.

“As a lover and owner of fare few incredible book tests It’s rare for me to see a new one that gets me excited. Random happenings changed that! I feel a book test should be simple to learn, deceptive and fun, Random Happenings ticks all the boxes for me and I know it will for you! I love it.” Peter Nardi
