One of my favorite Alan Warner effects is Mini Mental and I still think it is one of the cleanest and cleverest pieces of mentalism that Alan (or anyone else) has produced. In 2016 Magic Wagon released their Elite Premonition which took Alan’s idea and made it easier to perform. The great German craftsman Will Wessel also created his wonderful version called Colored Number Blocks.
Back in 2019 Thomas Pohle released what is probably the cleverest version of all – The Ultimate Block Prediction. It is different from all of the above versions and is easily the cleanest and most perplexing I have seen. No matter how closely you look everything looks 100% above board – you can look from all angles there is nothing to see and nothing to hide. And yet no matter which order of blocks and numbers the spectator chooses the magicians prediction is always correct.
This is Color version which has been improved again and produced in even more limited numbers. It improves on Thomas’ previous version in these way:
- in addition to predicting the numbers chosen by the spectator – the reveals also match the color of the block!
- more importantly – the construction of the blocks has been upgraded.
- it’s possible to reveal them with the numbers written in your own hand on a white backing written in the same color as the block.
Even if you are familiar with the other versions, you will likely still be fooled by this version. You will marvel at how smoothly this bad boy operates – it is amazing!
