Phenomenal presentation. Like an info-mercial guy, really confident, eloquent, entertaining. Wonderful stuff.

its funny reading posts that think he uses a mirror or earpieces....

4:03 hold those up?

Why didn't he just say: Can't be seen on the mirror or something.

Look at where he's looking when he speaks; it's obvious hes reading it from somewhere

@GOSUPitZ and I guess he is wearing binocular contacts that allows him to read text that small. Come on now, do you people really find the need to belittle a superior performance with lame and obviously incorrect guesses at the method. Are you also the type to yell out the ending to a movie for people seeing it for the first time? I don't go to McDonald's where you are working and yell out the ingredients to the secret sauce, why try to step on this man's feet while he is working?

This is what happens when you have an actor play the part of a magician. Absolutely fantastic. The effect was secondary to his presentation.  I so want this for my magic. I am already on my way, I used to get in trouble for acting up in school growing up.

Thank you so much for this posting.

Wow, this is easy. He has someone behind stage with the same magazines, flipping to to the same pages people are calling out, and reading them to him, which he hears through a wireless earpiece. You'll see him pause and be quiet at moments, that is because he is listening. It is the same concept Peter Popoff used to do the fake faith healings.
