I have a question. Is it actually possible for somebody to purchase Sulfuric Acid? I would think that this kind of stuff is a bit too dangerous for just about anybody on this board to purchase.

Hopefully you have more than close up stuff. Because I hear the judges HATE card magic or coin magic or anything close up related.

You're talking about a splash bottle right. I'm pretty sure that's what he probably did. You can get the prop for that at any magic shop.

Kenners stuff used Morgan Dollars I think and Flicker used half dollars. Trifecta also used Morgan Dollars. Tho you can do most of the routines with halves.

It's a tnR deck effect. I've heard it's pretty good but not too practical.

Here's the problem, Youtube is stopping kids from actually performing for REAL people. Magic wasn't meant to be performed in front of an unblinking camera.

What did you win? Because I don't really see people voting for somebody on youtube as a "win".

Whats the effect?

I had to get a good laugh at this. "You accused me of camera tricks, because you couldn't figure out how I did that." It's not that he couldn't figure out how you did it. It's that the damn blur effect or whatever made it look really really awful. Seriously.. It was like somebody trying to...

It's to make sure they are doing it right. I know that Jeff McBride said that if he has to do a lot of false cuts and shuffles, he tends to look at his hands as well. This also has to do with people doing magic that relies on way too many sleights. I mean seriously, I think the best stuff...

Well you could do the bottle production with any routine if you know how to steal bottles off the table out from under them.

His pass pretty much looks like any other card guys pass.

I think it would be pretty easy for anybody to do a story like that. He did say that the rest of it was pretty much improve and the only sure fire thing was the Jack and 645 part.

I found it hard to see what was going on. Felt like I had beer goggles.

I think it's probably just the fact that the guy is like 15 and I doubt his parents would be happy to buy him a decent or better video camera so he could people on youtube his magic. "Hey mom, Can you buy me a better camera. Please." "Ok, but what for? We already got one." "I want to show...

Whats with the bad editing? Whats with the bad music? A lot of you did was too jerky and well couldn't be seen with that camera.

I wish I could have attended it. Unfortunately I had a class that day.

The other thing is that Silver Dollars are generally more visual and easier to see than halves. I have pretty decently sized hands but couldn't get them to palm the coins properly (besides maybe a finger palm..Which is the easiest to master.). But once I tried to pick up another object or a...

Yes, I know that.

Well they shouldn't care if what you are doing has no context or meaning behind it. But if you can make it connect with them emotionally and Intellectually then they'll end up caring. Most people when they start out, do magic, just to do it. Which is fine.
