Two weeks ago we asked you if you can toss a reflector behind your back folded and catch it open. Apparently, it was not as an easy task as we thought. (you can practice, 5-in-1 reflectors are cheap, just remember they are out to get you).

13 photographers took a shot at this dangerous trick. Watch them ace or fail this dangerous trick! (The reward however is awesome! aside OWNING your reflector, two winners also got a Light Blaster kit)

Huge congrats to DextDee Livingstone and Dan Lior for the win! Shoot yours and show us in the comments.
