  • Exposure of Magic is never ever good for Magic.

  • @MrOphachew Ofcourse it is. It passes it on to the next generation and forces Magicians to change their routines and create even greater illusions. Pen & Teller had been doing the same "Bullet-Catch" trick for over 10 years, as soon as the episode of BTMC came on and revealed they haven't done it since and changed their whole LV routine. Out with the old, in with the new.

  • @TaffTalk --exposure for exposures sake is never good for Magic. It simply reduces the art of magic to nothing but a game that people are simply challenged to figure out how its done. Just because one knows ll the words to "Toxic" doesn't mean they can sing it like Britney Spears. I would think that there is more than enough exposure going on without this clown going on tv simply looking for press,

  • @MrOphachew Well you have just stated my point exactly in your arguement. It doesn't matter if we know how it's done, most of the joy is in the performance (referring to your Britney Spears analogy). I would also say that 90% of the people who watched the shows were magic fans, and probably had already used the internet to find out how the tricks were done. Watching "Breaking the Magicians Code" when I was 6 years old was what inspired me to pick-up my first magic set, he was an inspiration.

  • @TaffTalk -- he is a self-serving press seeker. He obviously wasn't that great of a magician. If so we wouldn't be hearing about David Blane or Chris Angel we would be hearing about Valentino. originally back in the late 90's when he first sprang up there was outrage from the Magicians organizations that even mounted a boycott.

  • @MrOphachew No he's not some over-hyped street artist that PR companies use to grab the moth-like attention span of people these days. And that's what's so great. Just an average magician, like the 99.9% of the magicians who are in the business. He told people how you can levitate a woman and how to saw a woman in half, tricks that are nearly 100 years old. He forces magicians to change up their act, and for that, I salute him. He did his job, he got people talking about this art-form again.

  • @TaffTalk There is more than enough innovation in Magic Without this clown forcing it on us. Check out any magic shop. There was nothing wrong with levitating a lady etc. just because you might be bored with it didn't mean the audience was. There's a reason why they are called classics. And the clown wasn't that great of a magician anyway if he was he wouldn't have had to expose just to get press. He was irresponsible and paid the price.

  • @MrOphachew He is very talented, and I think it devalues your entire argument into nothing more than slander by denying that fact. The thing is, the internet destroyed any kind of mystery in magic. Any trick in the entire world can be figured out, and that's the thing, magic has to move on, new tricks have to be made. P&T stopped doing the Bullet-Catch after doing it form nearly 10 years solid when the reveal episode came out. I also don't know what you mean by "he paid the price"?

  • @TaffTalk --He paid the price because he was kicked out of any and every magicians organization and no magicians organization will let him join either. If he's so talented "why reveal the work of others. It was David Devant who told the guy that declares he knew how to do hundreds of tricks and Devant stated that he only knew how to do six or seven tricks but I know how to do them well. Penn & Teller have walked a thin line and have almost gotten themselves kicked out of the clubs.

  • @TaffTalk -If he's so good then why run around revealing the hard work and lives work of other magicians. The clown was not only a bad performer but he wasn't even a innovator either. There are plenty of magicians that reveal their own tricks and not the hard work and lives work of others and everyone knows how its done when they do. But everyone doesn't care because they are still fooled because the magician does it so well. Doc Eason is a good example.

  • @MrOphachew What are you talking about? Some Magicians reveal their own trick and it's okay when they do it? Nobody owns their own tricks, magic tricks are all basically the same, just with variations. You sir need to put together a coherent argument about address the issues of why you need some overly self-promoting tool like Angel or Blaine to grab your moth-like attention span.

  • @TaffTalk dud, it's called intellectual property. If you made your living and had invested so much time and money into it and this clown comes along telling everybody how it's done and its not even his he didn't even create it. You'd be singing a different tune(they always do.) when it affected your livelihood. There where so many magicians that had spent year putting together their acts and had to eliminate something due to this dud's reckless blatant exposier of others hard work.

  • @MrOphachew Nobody knows who created the original sawing a woman in half or phasing through a wall, so whoever puts it in their act has no right of ownership over it, he is exposing tricks which people were doing infront of Charles Dickens. Like I said before, if people want to know how its all done, the Internet destroyed the secrets of magic, not this chap who bringing magic back to the masses, teaching people tricks that they can perform themselves. Making magic accessible is not a bad thing.

  • @TaffTalk Itwas Golden that invented sawing. Bullpucky he revealedv how the self tieing shoe lace worked & its new. The internet hascaused more problems formagic than its helped evenRichard Osterland declared ata recent lecture that if he'dknown about youtube he never would have made his dvd's. He goes around & lectures ifyou want to knowhow he does it? then payto go toone of his lecture & even if you do pay & buy one of is dvd's all you're buying isthe right to perform itnot reveal it

  • @MrOphachew Well it's obvious that you have "Last-Word Syndrome". If you go back actually read my comments, you will see that throughout my entire argument, I had been saying that the internet is what killed the secrets of magic not some guy promoting magic and inspiring ordinary people to perform little tricks to each other in the office or down the pub, as you seem to be blaming the fact Magic is more or less dead on this one show. Goodbye now. (Also, learn to use the space-bar in future).

  • @TaffTalk Get over it. All that guy really was, was a bad magician who couldn't get further than the cruise ship and all he wanted was press. I'm talking about revealing simply for the sake of revealing like this guy. If you buy something all you are paying for is the ability to perform it not the right to reveal how its down. And who is it all over youtube revealing how other people illusions are done? that waist of oxygen. riddance.

  • @MrOphachew / @tafftalk - your both morons.

  • @irvinerocky --how so.

  • 5 magicians disliked this video hahahahahaha

  • So what! What a shmuck for ruining the livlihood of his fellow magicians!

  • thats not magic its an illusion

  • @EasyMagic53 magic is illusions mate

  • The MM was pretty cool to reveal all the tricks way back in the late 90s and the tricks themselves are so SIMPLE!

  • very smart

  • I want to try this

  • good stuff

  • I got that

  • AWSOME!
