This is an incredible visual penetration of a solid six sided block through an examined metal plate. Performer displays a square wooden tube with two cut outs on front and back, enabling the audience to see there is nothing concealed in the tube.
A large square die, (approximately 4" on all sides) is displayed. The die is a solid one, and all six sides may be tapped with a wand to establish it's solid nature. An examined metal plate is now introduced through two slots on the sides of the tube, dividing this into two compartments. The metal plate projects on both sides of the cylinder, and fills the entire inside.
The die is dropped into the top of the tube . It rests on top of the metal plate, in the upper half of the cylinder, and is clearly visible through the large cut outs on front and back.
The magician claims he will cause the die to penetrate the metal plate, just like a ghost walking through a wall.
He strokes the sides of the tube, and visibly the die penetrates through the plate, to the bottom half of the cylinder. Again this is clearly visible through the large cut outs on front and back of tube, and is now seen resting in the bottom half of the tube, under the plate.
The plate is immediately removed and handed out for examination. It is a solid metal plate, with no trap doors or holes. The die is tipped out of the tube, and shown to be solid, and the tube seen to be clearly empty.
