    Out of all the magic tutorials out there, this is the most important of all. I bought one of the books he mentioned (the royal road to card magic) and I was blown away after reading the first 2 pages of it! the simplest things used in magic!

    • @BaritoneUkeBeast4Life
      @BaritoneUkeBeast4Life Před rokem +1

      I just started reading it myself today and I am blown away by the motivational and inspirational writing after reading the preface and introduction. Now I am on the first chapter and enjoying every moment as I am reading it. Chris is so accurate in his video here that the books contain a magic of their very own. I am so excited to be starting my Magic journey even though I am now retired and in my 50's.

      👍 Hey man, cool: I too am in my fifties and have also like you just started learning magic! I've been a musician since my teens and I'm trying something new. Do you experience frustration with learning card handling? I get a bit impatient with myself sometimes but suppose that's only human.
      I hope you enjoy it and have fun 🙂

  • @bulldogunchainedpodcast6070

    1. Quit apologizing for long videos.
    2. You should definitely make more videos like this recommending books for different genres of magic.
    3. I have tried to watch other magicians' tutorials, but keep coming back to you because you seem more genuine, you break things down perfectly step by step and it feels like you actually WANT to teach people you don't know.
    I'm referring to you as my "Unknown Mentor" as I have already learned more in the 5 days since discovering you than I ever had in the previous years I would try to learn card tricks. So you're mentoring me, and thousands of others, and you don't know us.
    Thank you.

    thank you so much for making this video. im 18 and just started to get into Magic this summer before college. it is really exciting and a lot of fun. you are the coolest magician I've ever heard of. I was originally inspired by David Blaine when he performed with Jimmy Fallon but your street magic videos are what really excite and inspire me to learn and practice magic. I already ordered the beginner books and can't wait for them to get here to start learning.
