I am sorry, but I dunno why you'd do it, tbh... I said, "Whoa whoa...first off...if we are talking about exposure, then atleast let us list the good exposers out there!!! I'd rather die before learning a trick from WikiHow or Wikipedia!" (I have quoted it EXACTLY, in fact I have copied it from...

Not really tbh...this thread is just asking for people's views abt exposure---and as usual, everyone tried to change everyone's thoughts and no one succeeded---nobody is trying to justify exposure. Just because one is not criticising it is not equal to the fact one is justifying it. Yes, there...

Happiness is subjective and unique to an individual, not unlike the feeling of magic...just a thought O:-)

It was one of the few 'long' card tricks that did no bore me at all :-) :-) :-)

Maybe I wasn't clear enough...I should have mentioned this before but anyways... the effect I am indicating at is 'The Phantom Artist" on pg 100 of Anneman's book.

point cleared... Yeah, I guess I was harping on the secrets part too much :-) But anyways, you are prolly correct. But all this has just started, the better teachers have just started coming out. So to be fair, let's give this a bit of time, right?

There's this AMAZING effect listed in Anneman's book, which can actually make the audience marvel at my 'skill' and my 'magic'. But there's a slight snag... Is there a way to have multiple choices and have the spectator choose a single one, without forcing? Think all slips containing the same...

First of all, I'd like to applaud you. Nice thoughts! Specially because there's so much on stress on sleights by some magicians sometimes that the actual mental stuff lies forgotten. What @Maaz Hasan said is the best way to begin. Because unless you begin, you can't do anything. What...

Also, just saying, I don't defend laziness. The only thing I wanna say is, don't underestimate anyone, no one at all. Shin Lim started magic thru YT tutorials too. Also, it is wrong analogy that only those who do a particular thing or are involved in it will defend that. If I defend YT as a...

I do agree. I do agree. And that is my WHOLE POINT. If anyone is serious abt magic, they WILL HAVE to start taking it slow. Admittedly, I started, not with YT, but with other internet sites. And then, believe me when I say nobody had RECOMMENDED me, but I still felt that I love this thing, I...

Card 1:- 9 of Spades Card 2:- 3 of Hearts Card 1:- Jack of Diamonds Card 2:- Seven of clubs Good luck everyone!! :-) :-) :-)

I think I did mean that. Which means I agree with you on that fact. Well, first off, I ask stuff abt what's written in books as well, and I don't think it is a very good justification of facts, what you just said. I ask stuff about sleights because I refer to videos more, according to you? Did...

To be honest, why will ANY layman go beyond a video titled, "AMAZING COIN TRICK TO WIN PROM DATES!! CHECK IT OUT!!" ? Like, whenever I see a footballer kick a ball so that it becomes an in-swing or out-swing, I make a mental note to google a tutorial, at least to know the theory. But whenever I...

Whoa whoa...first off...if we are talking about exposure, then atleast let us list the good exposers out there!!! I'd rather die before learning a trick from WikiHow or Wikipedia! Aah, but it doesn't always. Then Richard Turner's Fool Us act wouldn't be so crowd-pleasing and amazing. I just...

The statue one was DOPE! I mean, admittedly, it was a bit creepy too...fine, at the beginning it was quite a bit creepy. But that just added to the fun of the whole illusion. That's Jeff McBride you say?

Thanks!!! I had only heard Roth's name when learning sleights, so to see him in action was a treat! You just need to look at this guy once to know he's an expert.

ikr? I already saw Mac King in scam school and loved him... But after SO MANY of you (@Maaz Hasan , @ZackF , @trapeze ) mentioned him again and again, I checked out more of his videos, particularly the Fool Us ones, and I absolutely loved it! He is srsly one of the (if not THE best) best...

Bertram looks the best for me... Paintbrush change is sweet... But nothing beats a good ol' Erdnase change. Also, it is a versatile move and can be used for purposes other than colour changes. Of course there are HOSTS of amazing colour changes out there with different shades of difficulty (pun...

I personally feel there are some who are just too insecure. They hate the fact (or at least, if hate is a strong word, then vehemently dislike) that someone ELSE is getting all the attention EVEN if your persona SCREAMS out that "Hey, we all are experiencing this TOGETHER, it is not all about...

So...I wanted to ask if you guys have suggestions for some great magicians who have their PERFORMANCES on You Tube. I'd prefer good quality videos, but no discrimination on the basis of camera and video editing skills. I just wanted to check out and get familiar with the work of some greats in...
