Comments: Most of these feats should not be attempted as they can cause actual harm. Some use chemicals, and others actually introduce the body to possible harmful effects such as burning, or infection from piercing, etc. There are some that are pure illusions.
Lloyd Jones notes, "This material was sold by Mr. Ovette in manuscript, mimeographed form in the early twenties. Re-editing has eliminated extraneous material and reference to current opinion. A few extra items from Mr. Ovette's long list of secrets has also been added, thus making, I believe, this material even more valuable in interesting." I do not have a copy of the Lloyd Jones edition; the contents below are from an earlier manuscript without the added effects.
