Magic - Multiplying Billiard Balls by Dazzling Dave

[SimplyMagic14]

I have been working on a routine with my Fakini balls(which are awesome) I was wondering if this was an original routine or can I find this somewhere. I produce the balls the way that is taut in "Routind Manipulation Volume 1 & 2 by Lewis Ganson. Thanks

crap, make your own tricks melvin.

@hajime59 IF you have to ask such a stupid question and reveal the secret your not smart enough to do the trick!

[btwede10]

I've been thinking of buying this trick. How hard is it.

[elliekeziah]

It will definately take some practice, but its not as hard as it looks. There's more than one way to execute the moves too - you will notice most do it slightly differently to the way I did it here. I like this presentation as I it shows both sides of the hand better. I suggest get a cheap plastic set to see if you get on with it, then get a good wooden set later if you like it. Plastic is good to learn on but once you have used wood you wont want to go back as they will feel too light.

[btwede10]

that was amazing!

[elliekeziah]

Thanks

music?

[elliekeziah]

Its called New Stories (Highway Blues) - just google it.

[mrfugu666]

I admire the way you manipulated the balls.

[shruk4]

[magiciscool676]

nice job!!!! Check out mine. I do it with foil balls!!!

[SleepYouBastard]

usrss said "It's so easy to that. There's lots of half balls..."

No.. There aren't "lots" of half balls. 4 balls are whole balls

[spanishfat]

cannot figure out how u got the 3rd ball good trick man. better then the rocco guy i think

[usrss]

It's so easy to that. There's lots of half balls...

[CapraCorn2006]

usrss says: "it's so easy to that ..."

it is NOT "easy to do" . You don't know what you're talking about. Go try it and then tell us how "easy" it is.

[clarissa35f]

Sorry, but My understanding is that the best manipulator of Billiard Balls was Cardini. He was so good he could manipulate Cards, and Billiard balls while wearing Gloves. Although Benson is an Awesome Magicians.

[elliekeziah]

Thanks, interesting to hear that. I havent yet had any layman question it though, which makes me wonder if it only seems more obvious to us who already know the method. Sometimes our 'guilty knowledge' makes its hard to truely see things as a spectator does (or doesn't). Appreciate the comment though - food for thought.

[elliekeziah]

Thanks. I have heard good things about this book but not read it yet.

[kingofZinternet]

U fricken suck at this trick. I saw the shell like twice. U really need to practice more before U post billiard balls on Youtube. Im way better than U are and Ive only been practicing for a few days

[elliekeziah]

Nice to hear you are so good, maybe now you can work on your manners.

[6towers]

@elliekeziah: good answer

[drummerxp]

ego fuckin maniac

[dookiekong007]

dude,im sorry, but ur the one whos revealing the secret, for a naked eye, theres nothing wrong withit

[AbraGman]

Awesome trick! I'm getting it for my birthday.

[themaniacofmagic]

Careful, flashing at the edge. But you're on your way - probably the hardest part is being able to comfortably hold all four without dropping 'em. I recommend picking up a set of Fakini Tournament Golf Balls - same idea, but a DREAM to handle, and they will last MUCH longer than the standard red wood (I've had my set for 11 years, use 'em every show). You can get 'em from Abbott's Magic.

[hockeygmc]

really great job ... is there any chance you will trade?

please personal message me

[aaronlxw]

nice!! i bought this 'thing' last week n it is kinda hard to master... anyway, nice video!!!

[elliekeziah]

Thanks

As with most things it gets easy after the first 10,000 hours.

Seriously though, you will find this one gets easier quite quickly. Good luck

[M0nkeyburger]

nice work mate!

[james3v6]

I am fairly familiar with the Mark Wilson billiard ball routine, however, I believe that I am going to practice your routine and add it to my repertoire. I have already added your video to my list of favorites "Phat Magic."

[elliekeziah]

Cheers - those long winter evenings just used to fly by.

[4subzero4]

awsome

[elliekeziah]

Thank you

[jew4lyfe]

the trick does involve a bit of sleight but the difficulty of the sleight depends on which veriation of the trick you are doing.

[elliekeziah]

agree - cant remember where I first found this version of turning the hand over instead of waving it back and forth, I find it lookes more relaxed though.

[jimdevo]

very good and with wooden balls I believe. That is hard.

[elliekeziah]

Correct - wooden balls - not really any harder than plastic ones except for the size - the suckers are a bit big.

[SniperHype]

Awesome :D does this trick need any sleight?

[elliekeziah]

Thanks for the comment - no specific slight but it does obviously require a fair bit of handling practice.

[magicollie]

very good.
