Yeah right now, he's just doing Symphony and probably a few other single projects down the line.

Actually it is true. Mike Ammar can take the simpliest effect that everybody would think they knew how it was done, and turn it into a miracle. The same can be said about a ton of pro's out there. Also for effects, I suggest you look less for effects and more for advice on how to handle...

Depends on how you present it to them. Often times some people will see what you do as a challenge to them, thus they will try to figure it out. Find a way to present what you do as something other than a puzzle and then you'll see that they MIGHT be able to enjoy it a bit more. Make it...

The majority of people who use it, will light it and then quickly let it go. Otherwise they'll end up with 3rd degree burns on their hands. I think you can keep it in a dry spot or whatever.

In fact if you want to learn it, you can check out World's Greatest Magic: Card Stab. There is a ton of awesome variation's of it on there and one that Johnny Thompson does blind folded for like 5 selections. Kicks Criss Angels version square in the nuts.

Hate to rain on your parade, but most of those aren't mentalism effects. Ramjilock is a mental card effect. Believe is a Prediction effect Extractor is pretty much a regular card effect (card to pocket) Memory Opener is mental card effect. The Invisible Deal is a mental card effect (which...

Very very very old effect called the Card stab.

Yes if I wanted to, Not saying anything wrong with that. Just don't see why it's so cool meeting a guy who does that. Now if he met the Naked Cowboy guy from NYC, THEN it would be better and also hilarious and awkward at the same time.

Actually from what I have seen and read about people who have worked with him, it's pretty much the opposite. Most have said that he is a total douche to work with, that the guys ego and attitude need to be cut down to size etc. Most of his card effects might have been interesting when I saw...

Sounds a bit fan boy-ish to meet somebody who just busks. He's not THAT famous.

All you really have to do is say to yourself "Whats the worse that could happen?" You screw a mentalist/card/coin/sponge/whatever effect? So what, most people will generally completely forget about it and it's not going to affect your life or end it.

Symphony is most likely done filming and everything, they just have a few minor things to take care of and then send it to the factor to be mass produced.

I still think it was a very stupid idea for Fox/whatever network to run Magics Biggest Secrets like RIGHT after Masters of Illusion. Specially sense one of the illusions the guy exposed was in fact just performed on Masters of Illusion. Then again Fox has never been known for their smarts...

I thought it was OK DVD but not really worth the 50 bucks it cost. They have better DVD's. Crash Course and Crash 2 and both are like 30 bucks..

Uh.. So if... Okay... There is actually a way to fix this, you could simply take speech classes in school or Public speaking and that should do the job. Also you could probably find books on the subject at most book stores. I think Scripting Magic would also help cure the problem.

The reactions were most likely edited out due to time constraints. Happens a lot with TV shows.

You know you could get people with it if you presented it in a different light. I remember Wayne Houchin saying there are a ton of guys out there performing the stuff Val exposes and yet they still manage to get lots and lots of gigs.

I honestly don't see the point of having a DL battle or a pass battle or any of the current battles. Everybody does a DL, A pass and a whatever differently. So why battle with those. What has always bothered me is that nobody wants to actually perform for anybody anymore. I thought we (The...

So nobody is up for a Overhand shuffle battle or a riffle shuffle battle?

This is the greatest battle of ALL TIME! Awesome man. The next battle should be even more epic. The overhand shuffle battle. Riffle Shuffle battle and maybe if you've got the guts and the skills.. The Hindu shuffle battle.
