Really great trick like all of the Paul. Daniels

AT LAST I am catching up on 'comments'. The Wakeling version was a beautiful design, beautifully made, and we performed it for years. It obviously owed its 'roots' to Selbit. This version was made to scale 'cos we knew Selbit's height and used that, from a photograph of him doing the trick, to recreate the measurements of his box. I once met the very first lady to go into the Selbit box. He was her uncle.

I feel sorry for you for not realising that with billions of peeps on the planet, you are going to get all kinds of age and creed differences. Who cares so long as they are happy. We are!

Wow, really shes 50! I thought she was like around 30 or something.
-
Well he's 70 and she's 50. It's not really a big deal, is it?
-
He's very good. You can see how he does one part of this, which is when he unties the knots restraining her arms, but I defy anyone to spot this on stage. He was a magician for the television age and as such was under much greater scrutiny than his precursors.

Old guys married to women old enough to be their daughters is creepy. Penn and Teller used to goof on them hard core.

Ok fair enough, but I don't think it was Alan Wakeling who named it "The Wakeling Sawing" . It was just his version of the sawing in half . Period. Other people started calling it "The Wakeling Sawing" . And honestly, in rewatching the clip of Kalin & Ginger performing Alan Wakelings version (and I've seen the Pendragon's do a great job of it too) I think Wakelings is significantly different enough that it it is not a "rip-off" of Selbit. Selbit's was(is) great , but magic develops.

My 3rd response to CapriCorn2006 (see the other 2): Mark & Jinger do a GREAT JOB, I agree! But the ILLUSION doesn't hold a candle to Selbits version. 2 Swords vs plates of glass? That's self-evident. Doors? I believe Selbit was smart enough to KNOW that if you had them, they should stay open... so he didn't even put them there. Separating? Again, he KNEW that would FORCE you closer to a possible solution by eliminating the chance of a fake saw. Sliding of the block showing space? BRILLIANT!
