Robert Baxt was on a low carb diet back in those days and got super skinny. He got married shortly after and his wife was a great cook and he no longer is quite so thin.
I have watched this over and over again, I love how skilled he is, I keep picturing how strong someone has to be to rip a deck of cards in half lol 😂 I hope I get even part of the mastery that he’s attained practicing his magic for so long. It’s truly beautiful
It’s a trick, if you spread the cards properly you rip down it one at a time, so you just need the strength to rip 1-3 cards because you’re not ripping them all at once. It’s the same way you can rip a phone book in half.
There are only 3 tricks on the video, are you talking about the cup trick? The cup trick is Larry Jennings routine for Al Wheatley's Chop-Chpp one cup trick.
@@georgemillward2069 Yes this is quite easy to do. There is a magnet gimmick in the top of the cup which can hold a steel core ball. Except when you bump it down the ball is dislodged from the magnet and it appears! The red ball he loaded into the cup from behind the handkerchief after she poked her finger in to check it was empty. And the green ball he loaded in from under the table while they were misdirected looking at the red ball. Anything else you want exposed, just ask away!
I'm a professional magician and have worked professionally for many years under all types of conditions and angle difficulties. Pretty soon you learn to handle all types of difficulties or you get run out of the business.
This is the weakest slight of hand I’ve ever seen!
Is this guy dead?
I was even more impressed to see my friend Robert Baxt in his audience.
Legend
Fun stuff! Who is the guy with the hat in the audience? He looks familiar. Is he a magician?
That's Robert Baxt, the whole audience is magicians and friends. It was shot in Lance Burton's home in Las Vegas.
@@georgemillward1105 Thank you for solving the mystery. Robert is great, too! Enjoyed your magic George!

Ricky Jay and Hannibal do that last sleight of hand trick too but I have no idea how it's done. Bravo!!!!

@@PreservationEnthusiast Classic exposure SOMF style!
I remember as a kid going to puzzle zoo in 3rd street promenade and George would always amaze me ...glad to see you here
Hi George. Remember me? Steve Jaffe, The Bar Manager from Wizardz Universal Studios.

Great magic! I'm also impressed that Lance Burton introduced him. What an endorsement!
Nicely done, Mr. Millward!
I think this was awful
why?
George Millward because he has no taste
Agree bad sleight of hand
Question, can you do better?
Great job George! These are three of my favorite illusions of all-time. The Chop Cup routine is my personal favorite.

What's up with the people standing off to the left, behind the bar?. That's a horrible place to have anyone watching.

Your ball and cone routine was spectacular. The saxophone music killed me though. 5 stars anyways.
