    "Is magic real?"
    Every time I show my kids a trick, that I have learned from your channel or The Russian Genius's channel or any other channel, their eyes light up the room. Like it's the best thing they've ever seen. So, to me, YES. It is absolutely real. I witness honest to God magic every time they smile in amazement. And I thank you for that.

    I've been watching your videos every now and again for some time, and I somehow went down the CZcams rabbit hole that brought me to three years ago, but I just have to say - as a high school mathematics teacher, SO MUCH of what you're saying is what a lot of pedagogues need to hear. Yeah, sure it looks like we speak the mysteries of the world to legions of unassuming minds, much like magicians do in performance, but this notion of EMPOWERING and GIVING SOMETHING THAT THEY CAN THEN OWN is so strong, and so necessary. Love your stuff. Thanks for the entertainment and the insight.

    you're just too awesome Chris. And I actually do those things you said especially when I mess up. I just tell them, I'm still practicing, don't have it quite down yet. I gotta say you are an admirable individual. I'm just starting doing card tricks now but I remember when I learned my first one and showed people, what really attracted me to learning more was the reaction they had and how I was able to brighten up their day, and that in turn made me feel better. And I felt a connection to magic that way because it gave me that same good feeling of being able to make someone feel some positivity, like when I take care of my patients as a nurse (btw I'm a nurse). So much respect to you. Love what you do and why you do it. I hope to learn more from watching your videos. And God willing we can meet some day and I can show you if I've reached that "advanced" level.

    @jonahbateson303 Před 6 lety

    This is a really special video. The philosophy of giving back to the spectator and allowing yourself to be vulnerable is very counter-cultural in the magic world. I believe it is so important in the progression of the art as an amazing interaction between people as opposed to an elevated, top-down display of power. I think that this is a brilliant model for how we should behave towards each other in ordinary life, even aside from the magic sphere. Keep doing what you're doing - these advice videos are invaluable. Thank you!

    This is good stuff. I like how you talked about being human and not trying to be above someone else. If you know magic they know other things you don''t...so respect those you preform for. I like what Teller of Penn and Teller said, "Sometimes, magic is just someone spending more time on something than anyone else might reasonably expect." This is enough for some people because you're letting them know it took more time to practice then they would probably want to take and they are OK with that. They'd rather pursue the thing they are interested in, and you can be happy that at least for a moment they were interested in what you do.

    I subscribed and went out and got me a basic bicycle deck to start going off what I used to know. Now adding all of your tutorials to my arsenal is fucking awesome. Also I never really heard of, more like didn't get into, cardistry or "flourishing" (if I'm using that correctly) and am way more interested in learning cardistry than new tricks.
    Already just learning some of your cardistry tutorials has added new twists to some old tricks. Keep doing what your doing bro, can't wait for the next video (even though I still have a bazillion more videos of yours to go through haha)

    Great video Chris. I've been following you on instagram for a while and Im a new subscriber to your youtube channel. You put out such great work and content! I'm learning a lot from your videos old and new. Keep it up!

    Dude just discovered your channel. I studied magic somewhat seriously for a few years right out of high school and never went further than a free gig at a college. I really enjoy your channel though and this video is spot on.
    I do tricks still from time to time (though I'm completely rusty and don't even try a push off double anymore) and sure, I get caught every once and a while. It's just part of it, and I think any magician who is working to improve and get better needs to learn to deal with it in a professional way like you describe. I've seen too many people get caught in tricks before and just fall apart.

    "Is magic real?" I like to say: There's a reason children can see ghosts but adults cannot...and it's not the fault of the ghost.

    Chris, the more of your videos i watch, the more i rekindle the love of magic i had as a child. I think you are a phenomenal instructor and editor. I truly wish you the best in your trade. Please keep the content coming, and most importantly, thank you.

    "Is magic real?" I usually answer that with "well, you just saw it happen right in front of you"

    @DarkSaruman Před 7 lety +1

    Oh my Jeebus, thanks for this video! I've been dying to learn these things!
    I have been studying magic on and off for almost 3 years so I get caught a lot. Also, since I've only started performing more often I noticed some questions get asked a lot by the spectators. This video saved me!
    Also, I'd LOVE a tutorial for the coin mentalism routine! I've seen Derren Brown doing it and I was mind blown. I suppose his method is a surefire thing but seeing how strong that routine is, I believe a simpler, non-surefire version would still kill.

    The best answer is I learned magic on a super expensive course, so they don’t try and learn the tricks😂

    Chris such a helpful topic! I'm starting my carer as a working magician so this is great to add to my collective answers of dreaded questions. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do the tutorial on the quarter behind the back and guessing which hand is in! I've seen you do this with chess players. always been fascinated.
