Fire Magic by Clettis Musson

Many wonderful fire tricks and the secrets of fire-eating. Add brightness, flash, color, and excitement to your show. The entire fire-eating subject is covered: torches, gas jets, licking a red hot poker, drinking boiling liquid, biting hot iron, eating burning objects, fire bubbles, etc. Also, the Human Blow Torch, other thrilling but different effects such as the Human Volcano, Fire Fountain, Burning a Living Head, Burning Water, the Dragon's Mouth, many others. Spectacular numbers include Colored Fire, Automatic Lamp, Mysterious Candles, Breath of Fire, etc. There are sixty tricks in all, carefully explained. Most are harmless. Where there is danger, as in fire eating, all precautions are explained. Fire eating dates back to 1000 BC, yet even today, few know its secrets. We don't recommend anyone go in for fire-eating, but we do think magicians should be familiar with all aspects of their craft.
