Too many people today act like THEY invented magic....they don`t understand that this is a performance art that has been around since the world started spinning.. but hey...let me throw a double lift and a classic pass together, call it my own and sell it as if it was....are you [Edited by...

ok....so in your world, these "secrets" are purchased by "dedicated magicians? I hope you have thought this trough to the point where you understand that this only happened in the 1800`s..and even then it was incorrect.. today....Youtube teaches EVERY slight there is....so my 2 main problems...

as usual ChristopherT will refer you to a book he cannot name...while there are youtube videos out there that reveals it I wish ChristopherT showed us a video of HIS performances...since he seems to have a problem with how others do it.. please show us how to do it

yes, and none of them read a magic book like a crime novel as you claim to do....I`ve been doing this for a very long time.. you want to be a magician...that is not how you act (notice that I answered all your issues in these sentences)....let me take my "stoner approach"...dude...you need to relax

odd someone hasn`t told you that this is a reveal so you need to buy a book to get a answer. in any case. the way I read a magic book: 1.First I look trough the Table of content 2.Then I browse trough it all, just to get a idea of what the different chapters contain 3.Then I read the chapters...

How do "you"* justify as a magician that you cannot reveal basic techniques to students of the art. but if you "create" a trick and sell it...you reveal the techniques. so it is NOT ok to reveal a secret......but as soon as "you" get paid to do it...THEN you can ? ESPECIALLY when it comes...

it`s a easy enough question...

I`m guessing...limited account for me.....no problem for the guy revealing how to get passcodes...

how is that hard to understand?

well..thank you for the information...not only am I a decent enough pickpocket (which often is part of magic...but hey)...you just helped me figure out how to get passcodes...yay....well, yay for me, not so much for the audience a double lift reveal would have been much less criminally...

oh but wait...he asked on a magic forum...he must be legit.....

Oh wait...let me ask you a "magic question"...."how can I get someone`s Email password"? I wouldn`t dare ask you how to do a shift or a double lift...cuz that would be revealing...but THESE questions are ok,it`s not like you are helping a stalker...or something like that just cuz someone asked...

Yes I am... because THAT IS WHAT HE ASKED FOR....HOW TO GET SOMEONES PIN... noone taught him anything?...they just pointed him to resources he needed to learn`?...isn`t that the definition of a teacher?

if we are all good people...why is there secrecy to begin with? oh and...as he claim...What sleights can be used for criminality? something only magicians know...this is the reason?

yes, I do realise that they can be...and I assume that is why the secrecy,(because doing a back palm CAN be used to steal credit cards...ofc...)but when you first in other threads complain about reveals...then you go on to explain "ways to get Passwords"....it is kinda different than "this is...

well...you do realise he IS asking how to get a pin code...YOU have no idea what he is gonna do with it...yet you give him ways how to do it just cuz he says it is "cuz of magic"....? and yes I get it...if the big names does it, why not share ideas....... where is the Secrecy now?

this kinda sounds like social engineering someone`s passcode....there is a book by Kevin mitnick which covers this...not sure why this is on a magic forum. what`s next....how do we use magic to get someone`s password.....oh wait, that is THIS thread.... funny how "we have to keep everything...

hm, since he posted on a Magic forum, I assumed he actually meant a false shuffle (which is the whole "why use pinky" thing)...I now understand I was mistaken and he is asking how to do a overhand. so Disregard my explanations. this is a VERY VERY good point

yes, it is a very nice picture....you do realise there are better methods....that picture doesn`t show "the perfect way"...nor am I saying my way is perfect...I am just saying there are better ways...and one of them is the way I am trying to explain it...is better both for noobs AND advanced
