    Full circle moment! The last time I was featured on your channel it motivated me to focus on my own and now I'm back with 100K 🚀 I'm so glad we still have the intro from that shoot 😂

    To Chris and the magic community:
    Recently, at the age of 43, I moved back into my parents' house. My father has Alzheimer's and my mom needed some help. Suffice to say, it's a sad and stressful situation around here. To pass the time I began searching CZcams for fun things to keep my mind off of my father's failing health and was immediately drawn to magic. I walked to a nearby gas station, bought a deck of cards, and tucked right into learning some tricks. That alone is a fun stress reliever, but watching videos like this, where Chris is so positive and supportive, lifts my spirits immensely. And seeing someone blow his mind -- his childlike enthusiasm and genuine excitement -- is the perfect cherry on top. I absolutely love it!
    Thank you, Chris. And a sincere thank you to everyone who helps crank my 'Stoked' level to 11 on a regular basis. ✌

    This just reinforces that the mechanics of the illusion are the least important part of the magician's act. It's the showmanship that makes a magician great.

    • @techwizsmith7963
      @techwizsmith7963 Před 2 lety +1

      Showmanship grabs attention, and creates another layer of illusion in its own right

      90% of magic is presentation.

  • @GenesisMuseum
    @GenesisMuseum Před 2 lety +10

    12:38 Perfectly said! The same thing can be said for music. The moment you can let go of the mechanics and technicalities of the playing the notes, and just play what you feel, people will finally buy it.

  • @ruggedlemmings9163
    @ruggedlemmings9163 Před 2 lety +23

    Going off what Chris said regarding "being true to your fiction", that really sums up the magic acts that I like the most. My favorite acts are the ones where the magician isn't necessarily "performing", like they're not asking you to pick a card, any card. I like the ones where it's just the magician doing their thing, as though they're just playing around with some magical coin they found and they're just as amazed by the fact that it's disappearing, changing sizes, changing denomination, and teleporting as you are.

  • @flatspin7
    @flatspin7 Před 2 lety +8

    In response to you your “be true to your fiction” talk. You are 100% right. I don’t perform any illusions but I enjoy your channel and magic content. When I see a magician either in person or on video I know full well there is a talent, skill, performance going on. I know that what I am seeing to purely the skill, dedication and creativity of the performer, and that’s awesome. I am perfectly happy to be amazed, confused, befuddled, and thrilled by someone’s talent. I don’t need to pretend that there is something occult or “magical” going on.
    I am perfectly happy to be in awe of the talent, skill, creativity and dedication to perform and perfect this stuff.

  • @HyDnePlay
    @HyDnePlay Před 2 lety +2

  • @captainspaulding5963
    @captainspaulding5963 Před 2 lety +28

    It is awesome watching a magician that amazes me be completely captivated by other magicians. Something about that is just really cool in my opinion

    • @MikeP2055
      @MikeP2055 Před 2 lety +5

      I couldn't agree more. I just barely got into magic and I'm constantly blown away by the positivity, encouragement, and camaraderie amongst the magic community. Seeing Chris's genuine excitement when another magician pulls off an amazing feat is my favorite thing in the world. It reminds me of my skateboarding days: someone would slam 10 times in a row before finally pulling off a trick and we'd all go apeshit.

  • @calvinclayton2396

    @lanceblair7245 Před 2 lety

    Watching you is the reason I started doing slight of hand. I’m picking it up super fast thanks to the way you explain line of sight and the core movements. Just want to say thanks for the videos.

  • @LisaHarsh
    @LisaHarsh Před 2 lety

    I started watching you because of puzzles and the tutorials. I love your explanation as to the truth of the fiction you are selling. It is part of the fun for me trying to figure out how it’s done, but I also love the moment the trick is done and just falling for the fiction too.

  • @robinwashburnmagic
    @robinwashburnmagic Před 2 lety +2

    My buddy Chris, on that (12:38) you just said one of the most iportant things related on the universe os magic. Great video!
    I started in magic about 3 years ago ans I just miss so much your magic related videos, you were my biggest inspiration and saddly I had to stop magic as a hobby because my creativity just dried out due to some crazy depression that I'm still fighting to this day. But anyway, keep the good job and it's always awesome to see you around magic stuff. Thanks from a great fan from Brazil!

  • @wiseacredave
    @wiseacredave Před rokem

    I love the "fictional bubble" analogy. I often tell people that magic is the same as watching a movie. You want to let yourself be in the fictional world and be entertained. You know it's not real, but that's doesn't matter. Good actors and magicians can sell any story.

  • @jp-hh9xq
    @jp-hh9xq Před rokem

    8:23 My fav cups and balls ever. Wow. Just wow. I rewound a few times trying to find him loading the last 3 items, just to try to match the timing at the end, screaming "Load!" at the end 3 times and being off his beat. It's just perfect.. Man, even if you know how it's done, it took me several times to even sync up with it visually. Really amazing.

  • @Cardistian
    @Cardistian Před 2 lety

  • @JustinoElArtista
    @JustinoElArtista Před 2 lety

    This man speaks the truth. Magic, at its core, is entertainment. And just like most forms of entertainment, you need to respect the suspension of disbelief. Just perform (or let the performers perform) and have a good time.

    That is something I've understood since I was little. I got spoiled when i was a kid. My mom was a waitress at the forks hotel so I got to hang out at a young age with the master Eddie Fechter. My dad was friends with him so he knew all the tricks. He and I have never had the skill but always knew how the trick was done but were in awe of how it was presented. Keep up the good work.

    Showing our age that we know Harry Blackstone. Saw him on Reading Rainbow back in the 80s. He did great magic. Again not about believing its real, its about seeing what they want me to see and not.looking to solve it.

    • @IanWatson
      @IanWatson Před 2 lety +2

      He was on Reading Rainbow, had "Backstage with Blackstone" segments on Square One TV, and oddly enough even appeared on The Super Mario Bros. Super Show. Our generation saw him more than we frankly had any right to. He was fantastic.

    • @brolohalflemming7042

  • @casperthefriendlycookingapple

    Love magic. Can't do it, but love it. I agree with you in that it's all in the delivery. I am immediately suspicious of performer's who overplay the set up.Also, as an addendum, love the bubble analogy tangent. Go off on as many tangents as you want if they're that insightful. Keep up the good work!

    Anyone into magic at all knows how the 'cups and balls' is done. Even knowing, watching somebody do it that well is a joy every time.

  • @thejakefromstatefarm6768

    The puzzles excercises the part of your brain that it takes to figure them out. It’s pretty much the same thing as practicing magic. It’s sharpening your tool for your craft. It is highly entertaining and it shows us how to use or minds in different ways too so no complaints on the puzzles. Id like to see more you flash you lose and have a variety of different folks on to do it. Make it a regular thing.
