It almost seemed too good to be true, so I waited for some reviews. I woke up this morning and saw five reviews posted, and all of them were five stars. So I made the leap, bought it, and watched. MAN, am I glad I did. This is THE REAL DEAL! I'm still wrapping my head around ways to apply this...

I love it! Beautiful, inspiring, meaningful, and for a great cause. AHHHH! Can't wait until it arrives in the mail! Also - ANDREI, your spring in that video is RIDICULOUS. How do you do that????

You sir should win a MEDAL! Okay, so if we assume that, and if we're right, then the only question remaining is what's inside this box... a deck, a trick, an object... and THEN - is it something new, or like the Tannen's Mystery Box where it's something that already existed (like a surprise bundle).

YES! You can see that mentioned in the TED Talk transcript here and also the USS Kelvin (Star Trek) was named in his honor. So IF we assume correctly that this Mystery Box is, in fact, related to JJ Abrams, then the lock on the front (RAYHR) is very likely NOT a coincidence.

Amazing contest! Love this. Very simple and suspenseful every time I spin that wheel.

Congrats to the winners! Bravo! Sorry I wasn't able to enter this week (family event). Pete, your routine totally fooled me.

Humility much? Jeez dude, if you could reduce the arrogance by about 98%, that'd be fantastic. Very offputting. Who said anything about phoning anything in? 24 hours is more than enough time, at least for me, to film an uncut performance for friends or strangers, for a contest of the sort. I...

Big fan of the Blink gimmick - I've used in so many routines and it always gets a crazy reaction. But Regeneration is a favorite as well.

I met Losander at the SAM conference last year - what a kind, creative, brilliant guy. Good luck with this project.

So excited about this! When Blaine's doing MAGIC, at least in my opinion, he's in his best element. It seems like the endurance stunts overtook the emphasis on magic in recent years, so this was very exciting for me to hear. GOOD news! My favorite TV magician? Gotta be Copperfield - hard to...

First and foremost, thank you to theory11 for hosting these contests every week - I love them. So much fun being a part! One idea, at least for me - would be some sort of collaborative SNC, where we have to work TOGETHER to do something. Maybe that's in teams, or maybe that's with a friend -...

My practice routine is very different for magic and cardistry. For cardistry moves - of which I'm not the best but learning - I tend to practice "while" doing other things. While talking on the phone, while watching a movie, while eating lunch, etc. The goal is twofold - to get in as much...

Excited to see all of the entries for this! Going to try my best!

Good luck, everyone! I love this idea!

I'd be curious to hear some insight on that, as well. Where did magic start? Literally - like where was the absolute first recorded reference to a magic effect being performed, and when did it become an "accepted" form of entertainment? Things like that.

This is fascinating. I'm inspired to grab all of those books and focus on each, one by one, until my mind explodes. In all seriousness, Jason, theory11: thank you. Spectacular. I am very grateful for this. You continue to raise the bar and set the standard. As a suggestion, I would be curious...

Thanks for the link! I've been looking for these!

Love this! Great article. Very inspiring.

I'm not a huge fan of Dynamo. I'll admit that. I don't think his performance skills are too impressive - he comes across flat as a performer, without much charisma or personality that one would expect in a television celebrity. I respect his success, and I wish him the best. To me, he seems to...
