    Code breaker??

    There are three effects that I know of that can unlock a spectator's phone: Code Breaker by Michaely Murray as you mentioned, Hack by Peter Turner, and Cipher by Ellusionist. The rank I give them in order of best method to achieve the effect is as follows (1. being the highest): 1. Cipher 2...

    Name of these two mentalism tricks? Can't seem to find them!

    These are more like plots than specific effects. What I mean by that is based on your description alone, they sound like plots that have had several people contribute variations on how to go about achieving these plots. For effect #1, while I'm not sure what the specific one you are describing...

    Gifting magic!

    My last purchase was Tarantula II at a discounted price about a month or so ago. I didn't ask for nor buy any magic products this year. Currently saving up to produce a show that has an estimated cost of $10,000 for the time being so for now I need to be content with what I already have. With...

    Question: Are engineers easier to fool?

    I haven't really noticed any difference. I used to perform Doubting Thomas all the time on my fellow engineering students that I would study with and they all seemed to love it and get great reactions. In the No Pressure trailer, the guy who says "Wow, magic is great!" is an engineer (I can't...

    This annoys me more than anything.

    I would wager it's in how they are revealing it. Their gimmick of the silent guy revealing the magic and then getting beat up seems to be the hook that gets the majority of the views.

    This annoys me more than anything.

    What makes me the most upset is how much money these guys have made off of revealing other people's work. Because they make good money at this, they will be encouraged to do it more.

    This annoys me more than anything.

    Focus on how magicians make people feel rather than the magic. People care about people, they don't care about magic. That's why these two guys exist. They make a mockery of magic and it is specifically parodying the people that perform tricks to cameras. This is how laymen see it I believe...

    How many of you were introduced to magic by Youtube?

    Same with me. My first introduction to magic was a David Copperfield television special back in 2001 but I was just a little kid and didn't think it would be something I would ever be able to do. Then on YouTube, I watched a bunch of clips of Magics Greatest Secrets Revealed and figured out...

    Vernons automatic gambler routine

    Ignore this guy, he's not worth your time. I can't decide if he's a troll or not but he has harassed several members on here including myself.

    Can anyone help support a young aspiring female magician grow?

    So I really liked your editing of your videos! The way you blended the lighting and music in some of them meshed really well. Also you were very wise in choosing a blank background for the video you shared on here. I can tell you have quite a bit of skill when it comes to shooting an editing...

    Where do I start?

    Depends on the path that you want to take. I can give some general recommendations: For General Magic I would start with Mark Wilson's Complete Course in Magic and that will give you a great foundation in magic since it has cards, coins, mental magic, and much more. There is an accompanying DVD...

    No lighter for counterfeit

    You could replace the lighter for glue and make it appear that you glued the pieces together but it's magic glue so it can't be undone unless it's ripped up again.

    Let's talk about the free wheel spin

    Yes please don't! I can already see several ways this could be an issue with cheating. Everyone just trust the integrity of the site administrators that they have kept everything as fair as possible. The minute they start announcing the workings of the wheel will cause issues.

    Magic Keychain?

    I carry on me Ring Flight Revolution by David Bonsall, Ignition by Chris Smith, and Fob by David Penn. An additional key ring/chain effect I've been considering adding is Fair Play by Steve Haynes.

    New Release: Joker's Heist

    You are more than welcome to PM me on here if you have any additional ideas or questions about Joker's Heist. The seven effects are just what I have been developing for a year and thought that seven was a good amount to build off of this one principle. I'm a bit confused by your first question...

    Teaching People Magic?

    I do when they are genuinely interested in learning the craft and want something to show their friends. I teach them the magnetic palm taught in My First Magic DVD by Gary Darwin.
