 Hey everybody, welcome back to magic orthodoxy. My name is David and this is a magic review Hey today, we're gonna look at implausibilities from Hudson Taylor. What is implausibilities? Basically, it's a DVD this jam packed full of Hudson Taylor's unique approach to magic You want to see what the trailer looks like? This is it This is my version of any card at any number. It is totally impromptu It can be borrowed deck. There are no gimmicks. The cards can be completely shuffled I do not need to have the card or the number known. I could leave the room and the effect happens Cut a chunk of cards off of your packet and put it into your pocket. You're gonna cut somewhere look at and remember the bottom card And I want to add this want to make this especially fair I want you to do the final shuffle Well, you just riffle shuffle them and again, nobody knows what the number is push them together all the way and Just leave them just just let them just let them rest there for the first time. How many cards did you take out? Nine cards and what card are you thinking of for diamonds? If the four diamonds can be at the ninth position and a deck that you have all shuffled Countdown for me. Let's see One Five six seven eight Imagine a series of circumstances in which the audience is given complete control of the cards and the coincidences they create We're each gonna shuffle our little packet I'd like you to just choose one card and drop that down on the table And then you're gonna cut and bury it with some unknown number If I can take the jokers throw them in the pack Actually, what was your card? What was your card? nine states So we need to find the other two one more shuffle. Let's see what happens Where the implausible strangely becomes the possible You have a number in your mind now Now I want you to add a suit to that number whenever your intuition tells you to do one card face down If that's the four space This is implausibility All right, so that was implausibility is with Hudson Taylor and Murphy's magic a couple questions We always ask about all of our magic reviews and the first of which is what's in the box? What's in the box? You're gonna get a DVD DVD is three hours and 17 minutes long What's the overall quality and production value of the DVD? It's a dinner party setting. Okay, it's a dinner party setting Hudson is sitting there at a table and he's teaching or at least he's presenting his magic tricks to Chris Oberli and it looks like some of the other employees down at Murphy's magic There's two cameras. So you get a wide shot and a close-up It's done an HD nice setting. It's got no distracting backgrounds It's got really clean menu separations And then the teaching element is kind of set aside in a different atmosphere And it really does separate performance from teaching how is the teaching teaching is really great Hudson Taylor's got a really soft voice What I really love about him is he gives credit where credit is due. He gives a lot of credit He goes through a lot of the structure He teaches you what all these tricks are based off of from where he received his inspiration from and so that's really cool So what's on the DVD what's on the DVD you're gonna get basically a bunch of plots to any card at any number, okay? They're not on the completely easy side Difficulty-wise you're gonna need to know how to do a perfect pharaoh for a lot of these effects Okay, and he will teach you how to do a perfect pharaoh There's a big portion of the DVD where he goes over how to do a perfect pharaoh because a lot of these tricks Rely on that plus the mathematics plus the deck stacks that'll make these tricks Possible, okay, so there's a couple instances where he does teach you how to do it and prompt you Okay, but just know that going into this some of that setup is deck stacks mathematics and a perfect pharaoh shuffle Okay, what's on the menu? You're gonna get a lot of any card to any number routines There's gonna be some that involve spectators obviously Where you let them do the magic there's some great impromptu tricks on there Some that are really even considered magician's foolers. There's one on there where you even turn the spectator into a telepath That's cool. So there's tricks tricks tricks plus There's a huge bonus section as well where Hudson's gonna go over all of his favorite slights and give you a lot of his tips On that you're gonna learn the drop shift the center shift the shovel control of the in-hand shovel control The Paraphix change mechanical pop out just to name a few all right So what are the positives? What are the positives to implausibilities? You know any card to any number is a classic plot that gets amazing Reactions and Hudson Taylor is teaching you a master level class that covers the subject from the first card To the last negatives. All right, so what are some of the negatives to implausibilities? You know like we say around here. There's negatives to everything. These are just the negatives that I see They don't have to be the negatives that you see It was kind of out of my snow. It was a it was out of my skill level Okay, it was out of my skill level for sure. I can't do a perfect pharaoh and So that combined with mathematics it just wasn't my thing So and several of the tricks actually rely on having multiple spectators and I'm not usually a multiple spectator performer You know, I usually do one-on-one Friends and family members and things like that and so just for me it wasn't my style Okay, but that doesn't have to be a negative for you. All right, so is it worth your money? You know, it's $25 25 bucks for a DVD and it might seem like it's on the high end But remember it's over three hours long three hours long of magic and all the stuff that you can do with a deck of cards No gas no gimmicks and nothing like that. It's gonna be a pure skill And so if you're in the pure skill you're into just taking a deck of cards and just blowing people away This might be for you who would like this like I said earlier Intermediate to advanced level card magicians I think those are the people that this is gonna Attract and so if you're in that range, you think you're an intermediate to advanced level magician I think Hudson Taylor's DVD might be for you. All right So that was in possibilities from Hudson Taylor and Murphy's magic I want to thank Murphy's magic for providing this DVD for me So that I could do the review for you and if you'd like to purchase it for yourself You can find it at your favorite Murphy's magic dealer. Thanks. Bye
