Kaleb Wade – Hacked

What if I told you there is an organic way for you to force any information you like under test conditions? 

What if I also informed you that if you lost your entire act on your way to your show, you could create a 15-minute show stopper by visiting any stationery store?

What if I told you the setup only takes 2 minutes?

And finally, what if I told you this gimmick costs pennies to construct?

All this is possible with…

HACKED

HACKED is a 149-page hardback book containing 8 powerful routines with detailed explanations and illustrations.

FOREWORD and additional ideas by PAUL BROOK.

WHAT CAN HACKED DO?

With HACKED you can FORCE ANY NUMBERS you desire! You can also: 

Freely have two sets of numbers deleted by a participant and still always arrive at your force total.

Display the participants' numbers for everyone to see.

Have the numbers HACKED (mixed) up to generate new numbers.

No stooges.

Easy to do.

Self-working.

Perform HACKED for an audience of 10 people or 10,000.

There are five NUMBER effects included to suit your environment and performing style. They are:

HACKED

Six 4-digit numbers get generated by the audience. A judge makes a few decisions, the numbers are totalled openly, and the performer predicts the final total. The audience believes the effect is over, but there is still a final twist to create a showstopper ending.

HACKED DOWN

This is a stripped-down version of HACKED. This handling is perfect for intimate stage/parlour performances.

ROUTINE #3

In this version, the participants' numbers are mixed randomly by the audience to generate new numbers. Even after all this randomness, the performer predicts the final outcome entertainingly.

ROUTINE #4

This routine is essentially the same as ROUTINE #3 but includes a different ending.

ROUTINE #5

This is the most baffling version of the HACKED concept. Six 4-digit numbers get generated, displayed on stage, and mixed into oblivion! Yet the performer can still force any number they wish. DATES, CONFAB, CRYPTEXT, ANYTHING!

*Routine 3, 4, and 5 titles have been edited to protect the secret as they allude to some methods used.

Although HACKED was originally an add-a-number effect, the possibilities with the methods included are endless. You can force anything! WORDS, OBJECTS, CELEBRITIES, SONGS, MOVIES…

 BONUS ROUTINES

ROUTINE #1

Six random words generated by the audience, the performer elicits a judge to come on stage and make a few decisions with these words in secret. Without looking at the words, the performer instantly divines the randomly generated word, and proves with 100% certainty this would always be the outcome. A 600,000 to 1 shot!

DUOS EXITUM

Six random words get generated by the audience in secret. The judge selects one of the words in their mind. The performer draws attention to the open prediction on display and has been for the entirety of the show. Inside a clear envelope is that EXACT word they are thinking of. A perfect match!

OBJECTION

Five random objects get generated by the audience in secret. The judge thinks of one of these objects, and the performer instantly plucks the item from their mind. As an added kicker, the performer produces that EXACT object magically. Proving influence has been at play.
