    New World Record - 31 Decks of Cards in 1 hand

    Here's some statistics for you. An average deck of playing cards weights roughly 3.3 oz. He held 31 decks of cards in his open hand, so if you do the math that's about 91 oz. Now if there's 16 oz to a lb if you do the conversion math that's about 5.8 almost 6 pounds he's holding with one...

    New World Record - 31 Decks of Cards in 1 hand

    Jesus H. Christ doing jumping jacks on a dancing cane Chris... Get over yourself. Alfie has gone and recorded himself doing something pretty cool, it wouldn't kill you to show a little more support than that. Good job Alfie!

    Business Card Feedback

    I like it. A lot. It says everything it needs to, and doesn't go over board. The only suggestion I could give, all be it a minor one, is to include your website address on the card. Well done!

    Origins of Card Mechanic

    This is unverified, but I believe it started out in Vegas when the Mob still ran the joint. The mechanic was a special dealer who did all sorts of sleights aimed at cheating the marks out of their money if they were on a roll.

    Whip Cracks

    It's an Adam Winrich Indiana on a Budget. You can get these whips from winrichwhips.com Just tell Adam I sent ya. I believe the Indiana on a budget goes for between $125 and $150 bucks. They're a 4 plait cow hide, so it's no roo skin, but it's a good whip and it'll do you well.

    Who says the illusion needs to be restricted to just sleight of hand? I'm not saying how it was done, just as long as you were entertained. ^_~ I will say that none of them knew what was going on, other than they were going to see magic. Thanks for the complements and encouragement...

    Huh... I'm pretty sure I can get on someone's guest list to come out and see everyone that week.

    Probably won't happen. Not after that being your opening sentence. Yep I was right... First off Zach, please don't take offense to this. That last post wasn't rude. That post was matter-of-fact. I can do rude though if you wish. It's not a side of me that I like to show off but I can...

    Thanks for the feedback. Yeah in retrospect drinking from the bottle probably wasn't the best idea. That's a good note for the future. Yes, the hat is a Draven Original!, and that is my casual look. My makeup is a little more fierce for the stage.

    Opinions are welcome. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RttA972y82Y It's a more traditional performance of Watermark. This is not my tarot deck, altered version.

    Help me to open up my options.

    I've got to commend you for wanting to expand on your show. Adding additional material gives you a wonderful diversity and more flexibility as a performer. Props to you! However, I'm sorry but this post of yours screams lazy to me. You just throw out a bunch of magic effects then instead of...

    Light

    This may seem like a "no duh" comment but make sure the lamp bulb is the same color as your d'lights. Other wise it's going to look silly.

    Only do self working effects if you want to fail. The JR. program is harder than the adults, and I know for a fact that they hate self working card tricks in the adult program.

    Camp Performance

    Lady bug would be too hard to see in minimal light. It's pretty hard to see under normal conditions. If you perform in a sport coat or suit coat (and I don't see why you shouldn't) then make sure it has an inner pocket, or use a brief case. You'll want either of those to ditch cards into...
