Hey folks...Aaron Fisher here. Thanks for watching!
In case you don’t know me, here’s the short version:
I’ve been performing and creating magic for over 20 years. Some people would say I’m widely considered one of the world’s top sleight-of-hand artists, but I’d never be so bold ;)
I’ve been fortunate enough to perform for Fortune 500 CEOs and some of Hollywood’s favorite stars all over the world, with buddies like Lee Asher, Nathan Kranzo and Adam ‘Amazing’ Grace.
But between my hit book ‘The Paper Engine’ and my coaching programs and communities, my No.1 goal has always been to help fellow magicians discover and develop their own unique approach to creating incredible magic.
This CZcams channel is just ONE of the ways me and my team are trying to ‘give back’ to the incredible magic community. You can enjoy more of my magic here:

Tom was one of my closest friends for many years back in the 80's. He and Eddie Tullock taught me a lot about working sales pitch magic at Trade Shows for the big bucks. I think Tom's version of "Cards Across" was the best ever. I never saw a version of it that could come close to his. May he rest in peace.
My personal favorite magician of all time. Setting aside the incredible magic and the thinking that went behind it... and just taking all his side gags and one liners it's amazing how entertaining he was with just those alone. 19:35-20:45 was absolutely filled with it. He stops a card trick in the middle (superb creativity!), puts down a cigarette and a match (gag 1), cigarette lighter (gag 2), blows on match but it stays lit (gag 3) broom and dustpan (gag 4), all the while doing a separate mini side magic show. And this is just part of that video!!! Incredible, simply incredible. One of a kind. I know of no other magician that was this incredibly creative.
When I was a teenager in the 80’s I spent many afternoons in my hometown of Macon, Ga talking magic with my friend Bob Carver (Professor’s Nightmare). I first learned about the Tomfoolery and Tom Mullica from him and I have been a fan ever since.
Once you know how he ditches the cigarettes, the trick becomes even more impressive.
The audience sounds like the one they hire for SNL which laughs at anything.
Thanks guys that was awesome.
I have been trying to source this video (From the first clip) again for years, this is the first time I've found a clip on it online. I lost the VHS I had years ago. Does anyone know what video has this act from Tom Mullica?
He did an appearance on David Letterman which is on youtube. I wish I could have seen him at his bar.
He's got the Jim Carrey rubber face...actually Carrey's got Mullica's contortionist facial-batics.
the hell with entertaining the brutes
I just found Tom a couple of years ago. I became an instant fan. I mentioned this already but I even went online looking to see if he would be coming anywhere close to me so I could catch a live show. That when I found out he died. Very disappointing...I watched the video he made at his house when he was trying to sell his hidden table/stand and wallet. You could tell he was very passionate about his products. Sad he died so young and after a routine procedure too.
I'm not saying Tom wasn't proud of his art, but there was never any "I'm the Great Tom Mullica" when he was off stage.
turn up your mics more, i can still hear the audio from the video you are reacting to
