Paul Curry (the guy who invented 'Out of this World' amongst other classic tricks) wasn't actually a professional magician. He worked for an insurance company. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Curry Just goes to show even amateurs can come up with classics if they want to! Rev

I saw Geoff Lecture and perform at The International Magic convention in London back in November. He was brilliant and all his stuff is totally workable. He showed the aforementioned 'Devastator' trick and I must say it fooled the hell out of me!! Add to the fact it is mind blowingly simple and...

That, my friend, was seriously VERY cool! Looked very magical and even though i can roughly follow some of the moves it still fooled my quite badly! You've definitely got yourself a keeper there! Very well done.

My thoughts exactly, DVDS are good, but books just seem to have that special 'something' to me. Like a book of spells! Who ever heard of a DVD of spells?!? I think they key word you used above there is 'knowledge'. DVD's are great for learning methods, but you don't have to invest them time you...

I think I'm going to get this. The only thing that's put me off buying a lot of Daniel's stuff before is that I don't like having to read/watch stuff on my computer. I have his Trilogy lecture notes in PDF and they are great but reading them is a pain, but I would quite gladly buy an actual book...

no one will, from what I heard this book will replace all the books currently on sale. I.e. you won't be able to get the ebooks anymore.

Hmmm, fair enough. They just seemed oddly springy that's all. Rev

Quick question, are those the plastic bicycle cards? Rev

You may also find 'Royal Road to Card Magic', Bobo's Modern Coin Magic' and 'Mark Wilson's Complete Course in Magic'. I've see these in most bookstores and they are books that EVERY magician (no exceptions!) should own. And they are all really cheap to and contain hundreds of trick and sleights...

Al Korans Legacy by Hugh Miller Unfortunately it's out of print now, but I have a copy i bought back when i was about thirteen (11 years ago!) and there is some FANTASTIC material in their. Mostly stage mentalism stuff and then some close up items and even his infamous 'Linking of three...

Doesn't really work like that. I knew it was suggestion. I also knew the film he showed had nothing to do with anything. It was more about what he said before the film, what you expect the film to do and what he said after. And despite me knowing this, it still worked on me. I just couldn't...

Worked on me! Could lean forward and everything, but as soon as i tried to stand, my legs just felt like they couldn't be bothered and i just couldn't stand! A VERY bizarre sensation indeed! Rev

Using it to make the card vanish looked absolutely fantastic. Just think of the possibilities... a card to wallet where the actually see the card vanish... Nice Job. Rev

I've been considering getting this for a while as I don't no much very strong mentalism, but by the sounds of you rather excellent review, this DVD is well worth it! Thanks for the fantastic and very thorough and review. Looks like i have to get the bank card out now! Rev

Some good original material there, makes you really stand out from the crowd...:rolleyes:

HA HA HA HA! That's my favorite, it's not crude in anyway but MAAAAANNNNNN is it cheesy, and very clever. Rev

Double lift. it certainly fits all your criteria and you can probably already do it! Simple is best Rev

Cilit Bang. Just drop them in it for half an hour or so. And BANG! The dirt is gone! Rev

Whoa, chill out dude, was only trying to provoke some conversation... geez. For a bunch of people who enjoy poncing around with cards magicians sure do take somethings seriously. It just interested me so i thought some other people might like to discuss it. I'll post an answer more in the...

I got to see Barry & Stuart live in London a few years ago and they were bloody brilliant! Great magic and hilarious as well! Rev
