[GabeCorso]

awesome! :D

I like it far better than all the bird stuff, but that's probably because I know some bird magic, so I'm not puzzled by it ;)

[spaidermanisui]

armer bird

[Tiramisator]

17 Juli , Rick is back in Sahara Casino Las Vegas , with New Show !!!

[LucasJodoKast]

[tyray94]

hey what is that first trick called were he turns the fire in the cage to a dove

[LucasJodoKast]

the Fire Cage Dove

[jjmaala]

LOL

[albacadraba71384]

very good rick thomas is awesome

[Maaggiicc101]

Who know music pls tell ;]

[robermagic]

I'm pretty sure that music was either custom made for Rick or was used from the archives of non-copyrighted music files from the World's Greatest Magicians TV show.

[Carycomic]

Holy ****! I've never seen anybody, this side of Lance Burton, move so fast from one trick to the next. And, yet , make it look so (deceptively) easy. The phase-through handkerchiefs were real nifty. And, the table-top materialization of the first assistant was jaw-dropping! But, the finale' with the cockatoos? Indescribably brilliant! Oh! And, the doves were well-trained, too. ;-)

[magicdan11]

he is a modern lance berton

[Carycomic]

I quite agree. The only other person I've seen handle trained doves, just that well, was a female performer billed as "Miss Vera" (on the old CIRCUS! TV series from 1971-2). Anybody out there know whatever happened to her?

[magicdude45]

anyone no where i could get ahold of that song?

[GTYOYO]

i saw this show in las vegas its way better now this is how he starts and he ends with his tigers i bought the dvd of his show and got it signed by him hes kinda like the modern david copperfield

[dleelasarmoti]

Is he marryed?

[totoni2000]

at 2:59, he killed some innocents birds/ well.

[cheetmeister]

lol he didnt, its not done like the one they do on the prestige

[totoni2000]

david copperfield cant do the cloth trick. that was amazing

[MaxWonder2008]

Can someone tell me something about this show?I only remember the name is The Master of Illusions.

[Carycomic]

If memory serves, "Masters of Illusion" were a series of prime-time variety specials aired by NBC, from Las Vegas.  Sometimes, Harry Anderson hosted. Sometimes, Robert Urich (before he was tragically diagnosed with incurable cancer). One of my favorite bits was the interactive mentalism of Max Maven. The results achieved by that guy, via my own TV screen, were downright spooky!

[MaxWonder2008]

What about Franz Harary?

[Carycomic]

Does he have any clips on here?  I'd be glad to peruse them.

[MaxWonder2008]

I remember Franz Harary was the host.

[1UltimateFighter1]

[vlaraway]

[amyxdove]

Andy Amyx

[Demonxyz123]

Truly incredible! rick thomas has amzing energy on stage and his style is so slick-RYAN BROWN

[naqibaba]

hankercief thru handkerchief really fools me ........where i can learn that any learning resource.????????

[magicdude45]

does any one know the song that was going? the first one

[magicdude45]

I love this routine! it is AWSOME! Rick is very good!

[WelcometoMidnight]

unbelievable, but still doesn't beat Burton.

[cobalt100]

First, thanks for posting this video. I am a huge fan of Rick. He has class, style and charm. The thing he does with the rings is awesome and puzzling.

[extrememagicoferic]

does anyone know the music hes using?

[nor0way]

its a great show....i saw it in vegas...its AWSOME

[dock4210]

I just went to the show last month, AMAZING! Went back stage and met the Tigers! So incredible.

[Alexo32386]

It's obvious he used to be a dancer. That man knows how to move on stage, Great show I saw his at the Tropicana.

[futurenear]

Next time I'm in Vegas, his show will be a number one priority. That bird manipulation definitely rivals Burton's.

[Sotar]

old school magic

[TruthBearer]

Met this guy years ago at Tropicana, got video autographed by him

[negory]

Saw him in Vegas earlier this month.

He blew me away.

I got to go up on stage and help him chop a woman in half. Hope she's ok ;-)

Got a programme signed as well.

Totally worth the ticket!

[wilthethrill89]

wow i just saw thi guy last night in vegas actually pretty crazy shit no lie lol

[steronite]

I had the privilege to go on stage with Rick Thomas when i turend 18. He is by far one of the greatest magicians out there!!

[alivin4him]

hmmm...can you say "move over, criss angel"?? Wow *speechless also*

[TVLubber]

Is anybody at all kind enough to upload RT's Osmosis illusion and his other tricks as well to YouTube?

[mastermagician00]

This guy presents his illusions with smoothness,suave manipulations,& comical gestures...MAGICAL!!!

[RickThibau]

I had the pleasure to meet him at Blackpool, he is GREAT!

[kadajslightlover]

he is a really good magician. i'm in vegas right now, and i just saw him yesterday at the tropicana. great act. I GOT AN AUTOGRAPHED TICKET!!!

[TVLubber]

I wish someone added more of his tricks, like his Osmosis illusion, and his tiger tricks.

[vicholicho]

*speechless*

[wanlu99]

Classy act...he must be one of the world's greatest magicians

[moderntalking1]

he is my # 1 fan i saw a it at las vegas last year!!!
