Le personnage de Mandrake réalise un vieux tour classique (les gobelets remplacés ici par des tasses...) puis une évasion à la manière de Houdini.
On s'amusera de constater que les mains ne sont évidemment pas celles de l'acteur (mais quel magicien a donc prêté son concours ?).

  • @ForeverMAGIC1 - While I understand your point please don' forget that this magician is an EXCELLENT performer. I have seen 17 year old magicians that can do INSANE sleight of hand. Flawless Knuckle shifts that would give Aaron Fisher wet dreams, but they can't perform worth a lick. I can almost say that EVERY 17 year trickster that I have seen can't perform AND I HAVE SEEN ALLOT of them. But they can do amazing sleights, I'll give you that!

  • can we have the entire movie ?

  • continued from above post-

    But I digress, I am not going to point out in a public forum the where/how of the finale loads but he definitely loads them. I just wish we could see the full routine.

    I though this had been edited to fit on youtube. Since my posts I have seen the complete film and the loads are not shown.

  • I do understand what you are saying but final loads for the C&B have been around almost as long as the tricks itself .heck what we use as final loads for our routines is what 300 years ago they used for the regular balls in theirs!

  • Please don't be arogant with me... I understand your point of view! Magic as we NOW KNOW IT, hasn't been the way it is forever. Kicker endings, backfires, instant assemblys, and magic framed at the face has only been popular for about 50 years or so. The c&b's wasn't new at this time, but it wasn't NEARLY as advanced as it is nowadays... hence the kicker ending.

  • Oh, maybe... Now i notice. BUT WE DON'T KNOW "WHAT" WAS LOADED? Possibly just the regualr balls? I wonder now, DID he load fruits an the they just didn't have time to show it? Possibly?

  • You must know different kind of 17 year olds than I do. LOL

  • NEW?! You gotta read history, my friend! The cups and balls goes back to ancient Egypt! It wasn't new in 1939!

  • Na man, he doesn't do any finale loads. At THAT time, it was considered AMAZING NEW ADVANCED SLEIGHT OF HAND

  • I know, but what I am saying is if you watch, he loads the cups for a finale. but this clip doesn't show it?
