Asher Twist Explanation

[magic9leo]

Thank u soo much dude

[MstoffeM]

I love your technique.. No doubt.

My damn dilemma is the angle..

[master99of99magic]

nice tutorial dude ignore haters

[illuznist]

how do u cover the flipping motion? wen u try 2 do it, i looked in the mirror and it flash as i flip the bottom card.

[magic9leo]

buddy mirror is not the best way to make your practice perfect buy a camera record it and watch it it will give u much more perfection

[Jnguyem24]

how do you shoot the card out of the deck at the beginning?

[dilsan78]

Not only is it NOT cool to reveal this, but the technique is actually incorrect! People please support Mister Lee Asher and purchase the official explanation. He has deserved that much respect!

[MonTag666]

@dilsan78 Indeed, Preserve the code of the magician,Unless you shell out X dollars then it's ok to tell.

Magic has become this sad state of selling to the highest bidder, I appreciate not just giving away every secret for one particular magician,But this is one effect and if Mr.Asher can only make money with this one effect then perhaps his skills as a magician are lacking.

[737speedster]

Propellerheads WIN. :-)

[marvindu713]

incroyable!!! 

[L33T97]

Theres like 7 billion people in this world,not all of them have computer and Internet access,only 200000++ watched.Conclusion,there's plenty more people to fool

whats more like Dude2010ification said, magician code of not revealing secrets is already broke by selling the trick to people with bucks.

Lastly,applying copyright and patents to magic tricks will kinda make magic extinct as if old magician dies, how can new magician rise as they cant learn anything.

[Pr3vOne]

as said all this magicians code is bullshit, they would certainly pass it on for money, so then the code is broken, and how would anyone else in the world learn the tricks? pretty stupid really

[Aleksandar481]

thanks man you are best

[NikhilSenan]

200000 people watched this. STILL WANNA SAY ITS NOT JUST US MAGICIANS? REMOVE ASAP KID.

[Dude2010ification]

While I agree that exposing the trick on YouTube kinda sucks, and there is a code among magicians that you don't reveal tricks -- I find it all a bit hypocritical. Because many magicians reveal their secrets to anyone who has a few bucks to buy their tutorial books and videos. If the code were sacrosanct, they wouldn't sell their secrets to ANYONE.

[nogimmickcardtrick]

Guys there are still many people that do not see this. and we can still perform it to those people

[ali6iraqi]

@nogimmickcardtrick lol

[mazmrini]

fucking kid.

[HDCardMagic]

Cool video excelent performance but 1 problem :| why are you revealing the trick ? you are desteoying magic :| !

[DEFThands08]

@HDCardMagic don't bother. he won't take it down... i actually contacted lee asher about i and he said i was not the first to contact him, and he had tried to address the problem before with no luck

[MrPhucyu123]

@DEFThands08 tricks are meant to be revealed.

[DEFThands08]

@MrPhucyu123 you are certainly entitled to your opinion. i'm sure there are many people out there who agree with you

[MrPhucyu123]

@DEFThands08 yup, its people who are poor and can't afford to buy it but still want to learn it

[DEFThands08]

@MrPhucyu123 i totally get you. i only make tutorials for my own flourishes though

[MrPhucyu123]

@DEFThands08 yea, magicians should copyright their tricks just as writers and inventors copyright and patent their works.

[DEFThands08]

@MrPhucyu123 some do

[ketzal17]

Wow...fantástico... eres un maestro. Fantastic, you are God, the video is really good and your hands are very fast

[Davidfct93]

ur using Gimmick cards for ricochet!!!.. i saw tat

[Davidfct93]

if tricks r not to reveal, y r those who said revealing tricks is bad come n learn tricks on youtube??

[raoninja]

it isn't hard thank you.

[tripleMmagic]

Spike is right. Magic would be nothing if everyone understood the tricks. take this video off

[Apparell]

tricks are meant to be revealed. Less QQ more pew pew

[Benebertocco]

great music in yours videos

[razmadaz123]

wow, nice thanks. Also, very nice and smooth performance

[notneededanymore]

that's crazy! thanks for showing it, but could help more if you actually talked :p

[RookieN08]

eventhough you showed how its done, its still damn hard to do this trick -.-"

[0123z]

i try to learn it, but... it's fucking hard :-(

[SC2Ftw1]

this is fucking impossible...

[higafujiyoshi]

dude excellent video nice sleight of hand to by the way..and ignore all the hate comments these guys are fags that have no skill

[funkydr79]

@higafujiyoshi - the hate has nothing to do with skill, but the ethics of revealing magic to laymen this way. Magic is something to be revealed - but only under the right circumstances (in a shop, at a convention, one-on-one), revealing it publically is just a douchebag move.

[Lawmage]

Lamah, lamah, lamah? V'gam neged R. Paul Wilson? Lamah?

[Lolmatcho]

Thanks !

[petersakaniwa7987]

the same way he always has. he's not broke cause this guy revealed this trick. might as well get over it. ppl will always reveal and obviously theres nothing anyone can do about it so may as well soak it up,

[BassmrDK]

I know it isn't my copyright, but I'm going to flag this for "infringes my copyright".

[Frederikq8]

cool



[BassmrDK]

This is out of respect of Lee Asher!

[MagicUrzay]

Genial. Felicidades!!

[MrEstoyarto]

thankyou i was trying to do thath trick, but the people can see what i am doingd

[thomas3816]

nice cards and great tutorial...thx man

[25PeaceMaker]

very nice trick!!

the best i´ve ever seen!!!

[mismag999]

this is awsem i will subscribe because i m so so happy to know these tricks which r very closly guarded and no one reveale them like coin flux and fan2c...thanks now v r in avanced level

[MrDenn3344]

WOUNDERFUL

[JushGraham]

Bro, that thing is sick... I'm going to start practicing that right now.

[CardDude101]

shitty tutorial dude!

[iPenguin72]

thanks!

[AnzJammin]

you do it good, but omg what a shitty tutorial...

[tricksshomagic1]

you suck fuck face

[townnet]

fuck awlsome!!! good man!!!

[Cardshark45]

why is every1 hatin on this particular tutorial? there are a ton of tutorials for other tricks out there and you guys have to hate on this one?

[chrisjrwoods]

worst tutorial EVER

[GhostMagicFromHeaven]

fuck you kid

btw that's done the wrong way and explained

[MastahMich]

True you need to use the ..... only. Not the entire hand.

[petersakaniwa7987]

God. What is he doing that is violating copyright? Answer me that mr intelligence.

[ShjnHoljx]

Think about copyright after post this, you dumb ass

[petersakaniwa7987]

Copyright has nothing to do with it. Get over it. Nice trick. Just cause someone posted a reveal to a cool slight online doesnt mean that everyone and their mom knows how to do it. So its not affecting your reactions or your audience. This isnt piracy and it isnt illegal. No one cares.

[GhostMagicFromHeaven]

this is copyrighted!!

every magician that knows anything about magic please flag this video!!!

[Cercatrova11]

This is very disrespectful to Lee Asher

Why would you revealed his trick?!

That's away he makes his living

I believe you should put this video down

[MrSleightofhandmagic]

@Cercatrova11 haha i agree

[TradeablePokemon]

@Cercatrova11 .....get a life

[aerosmithfan1991]

@Cercatrova11

thats ok. His trick wasnt that great either. i watched it a second time, and if you pay attention, the black cards are double sided. so it wasnt that impressive. when he puts all 8 cards together, he puts black on top, and shows the red cards bottoms. after each show, he pulls a TOP card, that way you dont see the double sided black cards. really, he did the same thing as the trick he explained, but with double sided cards.

[DEMONPLAYER101]

@Cercatrova11 QQQQQ

[jrward98]

@Cercatrova11 If they can figure the trick out they can reveal it if they want

[OnslowThurston]

@Cercatrova11 Don't be silly. Tutorials don't hurt magic. I wasn't even aware of Lee Asher until I saw this vid. Now I will very definately be looking him up. Do you think Valentino, The Masked Magician, hurt magic? No, he made it more popular!

[gunperry]

@OnslowThurston Are you sure?He spoiled all of the most famous illusions, and Copperfield's lawyers aren't too happy.....

[OnslowThurston]

@gunperry No, he forced magicians to get creative again which has improved the overall quality of performance magic. Copperfield was only mad because he was still performing old standards from the 1800s. I actually saw a Copperfield performance in Wichita, KS, where he performed a silly new trick with using a confederate and then "dared" the Masked Magician to figure out how it was done!

Penn and Teller also show how tricks are done but are celebrated for it.

[MonTag666]

@Cercatrova11 Boo hoo

[du0]

second trick is simple :P

[MrSleightofhandmagic]

@du0 he uses double backs

[du0]

lol i know :) i gave the trick away by turning the whole hand when he showed the face down cards.. and used it in combination with asher twist :)

[MrSleightofhandmagic]

lol well i gtg have a nice day = ) and happy holidays haha

[du0]

same m8 :d have fun

[MrSleightofhandmagic]

@du0 thanks i will

[du0]

good game :)

[29majorpayne]

wat kind if cards are you using???

[Lamerscop]

they are called tally ho circle back

[blahtoausername]

Slight mistake at the end. As you reached for the 4 "red cards" you can see your right hand holding the double sided cards turn the cards over from red to black. I guess timing is everything - or misdirection needs to be a little more forceful.?

[wallaguest1]

nice ;)

[jingling1314]

Hi what is that trick called at the very begining of the tutorial with the 4 ace pop up and the flying of cards to the other hands?

[ROTINPIECES]

awsome blossome production, taught by brian tudor on showoff 2

[peterddakmagic]

its part of lee ashers acr you can get it at 5 card stud

[Uzekamanzi40]

oh lol i see how the ricochet works. its like the first trick cept the diamonds are doublesided

[OnlyLosersDoMagic]

this isnt too fair to lee asher...lol

[tk201299]

Nice handling, try a higher frame rate.

[hoopmajik]

yeah fuck you for revealing it, but you're very smooth

[Geroldo92]

Name of the song?

[TheCardmaster2]

wow nice cardtrick. one of the best

[DarkBoy91]

the finnish is edited :))

[wolves167]

nah he just as double backed cards with red faces on one side and black faces on the other :)

[polywoly15]

or it could be 4 gimmicked double sided cards

[22GARNET22]

hahaaa i like ricochet...clever use of...well i wont say wat it is cuz that would be revealing but nice adaptations of a couple things.

[Theory11Illusionist]

as if enough of the trick wasnt revealed XD

[ikmhs96]

nice...and ppl stop commenting like your are pro's it wasn't bad at least i learnt a new trick

[nobitaluc]

good ,thanks

[OrigamiPaper]

Your technique is wrong for twisting the card. it's not done by using your forefinger and middlefinger.

[jessi330]

the beauty is that he can do it however he likes.

[OrigamiPaper]

When you perform magic you always strive to perform it in the most efficient way. This is not the efficient way.

Too bad people can't appreciate feedback

[Shadowblaster1]

Five stars.wonderful. Jeff McBride would like this

[KislotaOo]

why the hell all the coments rated so bad?

[phrozenflakes]

hey good vid but i fell in love more with the osng playing whats the name???? and artis??? soudn sliek good breakdancing beat?? name please

[skullfoot]

why expose you dirtbag? why? drop dead...keep it a secret..idiot.

[zzxcc898903]

違反薩斯頓不好歐...

[nicho2306]

the last one, is it a double face card?

[nibzy2k8]

nooo

all regular cards

[Magicclek]

sehr gut gemacht 5/5 *

[Wilsonbangy]

People ranting about giving magic away on you tube in my opinion are not helping. Magic was massive for a few decades because it was fresh and unique, It's become so stale recently that things like this have to be revealed to sort the men out from the boys and influence tomorrows wizards !

[famerca]

oh man i dont think so, i think these are really helps magic by pushing it to be more creative more freaky and more advanced.

[MasterP4NDA]

you flashed in the very end but i really liked that concept :P

[MasterP4NDA]

nvm it wasnt yours. so i guess good performance then

[spikeandvolley]

its not about stealing the trick its about keeping the trick alive , and it inspires the magician to go for better tricks,

[markbond100]

He's not leaving Lee alone. Quit your bitchin about other peoples legitimate bitchin.

[goaleezg]

just leave the guy alone...mind your own biz...and qiut bitchin

[tiberiusmaximus]

yeah, if you want all the details of the effect, like how to solve the problem of the cards making noise, buy the dvd. Lee Asher is a much better teacher than this guy will probably ever be...no offense, just sayin it like it is

[MasterP4NDA]

yeah, i would love to see this in person and to see how they do the angles or how they fix the noise problem. i really hate when people put music to their tricks. I am always suspicious of noise

[littlecannon]

Why not just learn it from the Lee Asher who actually invented it? Don't expose tricks that aren't yours. It's stealing.

[GamlaJosef]

Talk, say a magic word! Or have the audience say Supercallifragilisticexploalid­osious!

Or do it a in noisy area like a mall or train station.

Or at a party with loud music.

[The12OfClubs]

If you're against him stealing the trick, don't watch the video, let alone ask questions about how to do it.

[nemahm]

I'll bet any money you didn't pay Lee Asher to learn this trick. Shows how much of an asshole you really are.

[nemahm]

If you were any good you would expose your own material. Not expose something that it not yours. Shows how juvenile you are. Sad Sad

[Xabaras5]

effetto chiaro  ..grazie

[carlosonnypedro]

hmm, im thinkn for the last trick, u had double backed cars, u tried 2 hide it by showing the tiha pile of cards right up 2 the camera then quickly flipped cars on ur otha hand while it was hidden.

Or u wer trying to show how u cuhd use the asher trick for other magic tricks.

either way, Good Job

[Auphori]

Sigh, another kid who disrespects magic. Tell you what, instead of revealing it, pick up another fucking hobby and get your disrespectful ass out of magic.

[BadLew]

shut up man

[krichvesroy16]

i caught u..hehe in the last part..

[geniusyuk]

how to pop a card from the deck to the other hand at the very beginning?

[squeekybob123]

STOP MAGIC TUTORIALS!!!

[richardscorpio]

your a riot - hey all check this dudes profile - he "favorites" tutorials - what with you and "stop magic tuts?" geesh!

[reallyflasshy]

so that is why it causes delay

[sevillaparasol]

Would you be willing to show us your FACE bossman?

You have great bedroom skill withe dah cards but not face or voice.

What say ya? :)

[BreathlessCause]

WTF does that even mean? You have great bedroom skill with cards but not face or voice. Your fucked in the head.

[sevillaparasol]

OK, but you will still have a very nice day. :)

[mgcwhsky]

thx bud im gonna practice that one, its really visual and looks stelar when done smooth. Dont worry about the haters complaining about exposure, only magicians who are intersted in this stuff are gonna look up this info anyways

[sevillaparasol]

Exposing one's brainchild after purchasing such is different from watching a performance (void of exposure) and being influenced enough to take up the practice.

Some of these performers make a LIVING selling their ideas/effects/lecture notes and to take such and expose it for others to take and not pay hurts the creator.

If you didn't purchase your own copy, you've done what others do when they steal a copy of Windows or download music without paying.

Exposure is also anti-entertainment.

[BreathlessCause]

blah balh no one gives a shit ya tightass pussy.

[sevillaparasol]

I guess you taught me Boss. I promise you, you will have a very interesting day :)

[AdamBishop0]

I thought this video was deleted, i guess not

[AdamBishop0]

Good i'm glad some deleted this video, because people shoulden't be revealing Magic Tricks.

[AristoteSimonini]

low quality, low brain...stop revealing magic tricks.

[TuningFreak23]

whats the name of the song?

[kokainkate]

you rock

[B4RR1X]

nice !!! the cards at the end have two faces, but where have you found them?

[chungzheng]

wat is the 1st ace production called?

[baspostma2]

focking genius

[fielmeria]

um other than the fact that this is plagiarism, this effect is convincing but it is not the real way to do it - and the real way is about 3x better and visual.

Anyways, please don't do this I publish my own content once in a while as well - it hurts us. :c

[koukyuen888]

very good

[GommieGod]

Hey Dickhead. If you're not Lee Asher then what gives you the right to give away a move he developed. Since you're obviously retarded, let me put it another way. How would you like it if someone snuck into your your bedroom at your parents house and used your blow up doll without permission. It just wouldn't be right would it?

Go back to spanking the monkey and leave the magic to responsible adults.

[Sizzlik]

True...perfom but dont explain unless you invented the move...there are peeps out there who payed money for that. Have some respect for the art dumbfuck

[HackersGalore]

LOL Stfu u suck :)

[bigsqueaky]

The internet is a source of information -without- having to pay for it, beyond paying for your internet service. I personally think that the internet and its freedom of speech is an incredible thing. Through youtube and other sources, I have learnt juggling, jazz piano, singing, dance, and now magic - all for free. That, as you say, 'just wouldn't be right'; it's the rightest thing in the world.

[WorldsWorstMagician]

if everyone in the world were to do that then there wouldn't be jobs for piano instructors, singing instructors, dance instructors etc and with magicians- if everyone in the world were to just go on the internet and watch people like this guy reveal every trick they do then there would be no point in performing magic, since the "secrets" are now known. Magicians would no longer have any income. So I have to respectfuly disagree with you on this one. SOME things are meant to stay "hidden".

[birdman3631]

We can't supress information, magic itself must evolve.

[WorldsWorstMagician]

and magic can evolve. between magicians. What good is it to have the general public aware of the secrets? Its not like pople who can't perform the easiest of sleights are going to help shape and evolve magic into something more- its the magicians who are responsible for that.

[birdman3631]

I personally began my magician-ing (if you will) on youtube, learning some tricks from videos like these, it honestly is a great resource for up and coming magicians. Perhaps youtube is responsible for the ruination of a chunk of the art of magic...I cannot say for sure, but I think that those who want to become magicians, should be able to. There is a fine line between the sharing of ideas and the undoing of a art centuries in the making.

[WorldsWorstMagician]

what you say makes sense. I started with books and stuff, but didn't know how to advance until i found youtube. Since i've been on here i've been able to talk to others and build my repitoire. I too have learned tricks from this site. I feel that if a person wants to become a magician the seed is planted by watching performances, and if they are truly serious about it they then buy the information needed, or trade with other magicians. Thanks for your input :-)

[rbrunskill]

i agree with the above, unless people pass this information on, the art dies. along with new creations.

perhaps their should be a happy medium, maybe a "magictube" where novice and veterans share their talent, rather than spending time bitchin at people, when this time could be used giving advice and keeping magic alive!

Rant over.

[icuraqt2]

its not just about the info...Lee sells the trick - you expose it, you take $ out of his pocket. If you want to demo the trick & tell ppl where to get it that's one thing....ripping it off just sucks.

[sevillaparasol]

Sure the internet is a source of information, however, exposure is a different animal altogether. Lee Asher has spent his life developing his effects and one should support and pay the artist for his effects. Let anyone interested in this and other tricks/effects go by their own "licensed copy" and support the artist (Lee Asher) who created something that you apparently enjoy yourself.

Please stop the exposure - it's a loose-loose situation you've created here.

Peace to you.

[fightinguandi1]

song?
