  • FIND ME AT / dorystentorian . For more, hit damienatloppers.wordpress.com/... [12/03/2016] I just learned that Tom passed away three weeks ago. After my upload of him went viral, we were in communication for a while. He was a real gent. I was sad to hear of his passing. Hopefully, this piece will last as a tribute to his genius. And NO, for the anti-smokers, his death was TOTALLY unrelated to smoking - which he gave up years ago anyway. In actuality, "Tom Mullica passed away today. Tom had gone into the hospital for a routine hernia operation and due to complications, blood clots formed and he had multiple strokes. He was placed into a medically induced coma after he suffered organ failure and finally on February 18th he was taken off life support." He will be missed by fans of magic, great entertainment and just really nice guys.

    I discovered this guy around the end of 2015 and I binged so much of this work. I even found his website which he had done himself (you could tell he wasn't a web developer lol) and I reached out to him telling him that I loved his work and I offered my services to re-do his entire website for free. He graciously accepted and offered to give me some signed stuff as payment but a couple of months later he passed away from complications from a hernia surgery that caused him to have multiple stokes... RIP Tom!

    This is from a BBC show, "Stuff The White Rabbit", which was supposed to be the antidote to the more usual mainstream magic shows. It only had a very short run - one series in 1997 - because the BBC in their wisdom broadcast it at 11pm on a weekday.

    At 6:58 he does an odd motion with two napkins. The reason to this I believe he is setting up a sleight of hand and he needs his right dominant hand to do this. See how he puts two down on his right and oddly uses humor to disguise his right hand fanning out the napkin. at 7:00 the ball inside his mouth is dropped into his right hand.
    So quick and you would never notice unless like me you watched the entire thing at .25 speed. He still 100% burned the inside of his mouth for this trick.
    Literally the best magic trick I have ever seen.
