Magic Balls of Death


Good Evening... and Welcome -
I'm coming to you, almost live with this spectacular event which you are all hopefully about to witness.

Tonight, the World's Greatest Sword Expert and Knife-thrower is going to perform upon our stage, with a never before successfully accomplished feat. He will be flinging one dozen flaming razor sharp knives in a single toss towards a cute, defenseless little school girl, piercing a playing card above her head without causing her any harm whatsover... all while she's bound to the rotating Magic Ball of Death.

And now, introducing for the first time ever, the Great Senõr Pancho Lougini and his 12 year-old assistant, Miss Petunia Bobbysocks!

Let me ask a few questions here as they prepare for the stunt.... How are you tonight Petunia? Are you nervous?

"No...no, not at all."

Doesn't it bother you that this stunt has never been done before successfully, Petunia?

"No... Not really. You see - I'm so cute and sweet that Senõr Pancho couldn't possibly miss. I mean, how could he?"

Well thank you for spending these final remaining few seconds with us Little Petunia, and I wish you good luck as you take your position on the target stand... the Magic Ball of Death.

Let's see... I think the Great Lougini is coming on stage now... yes he is, he's arrived onto the stage. Little Petunia is now being strapped in place. As her legs and wrists are firmly bound to the whirling Ball of Death, the Great Lougini has taken off his cape and is now picking up the knives. Remember, these are 12 razor-sharp instruments. One slip would mean certain disaster.

Petunia has been blindfolded now. The playing card has been attached just above her head and the Ball of Death she has been strapped to is begining to rotate quickly. Now, the Great Lougini is facing her, mentally preparing with six knives held in each hand. The look of concentration on his face, what an amazing feat he is attempting before us tonight Ladies and Gentlemen.

And there it is, the Great Lougini has given the nod and the stage has been cleared, only Little Petunia Bobbysocks remains. She's almost a blur as the Magic Ball of Death whirls round and round before him. All but the spotlight has dimmed. The audience here is waiting in breathless anticipation...

"I am Lougini the world's greatest knife-thrower.
Tonight, for the very first time, I shall do what no man has done before.... some Music Please!"

Here it is Ladies and Gentlemen, a feat never before successfully accomplished. The knives have been lit and are now in flames, and Lougini is holding the knives high...
... he steps forward and back, once, twice... and the Toss!








All right, they are bringing out another school girl...

... and the Great Lougini himself has assured me,
"Next time, Definitely!"
