One of the most underrated magicians out there, not only an expert in sleight of hand but also aware of principles for how both the psychology and principles affect performances for laypeople. In this case, he talks of the precondition of laypeople and how it should be challenged.
The idea was that magic are not supposed to be only for children and that, through magi, we can be childlike again: wondered, impressed, transported, happy, and, for the time being, believing that magic magically exists!
This guy is really good. Although some of his moves, especially the coin tricks, are relatively easy to see. Of course, the tricks themselves are not the focus of this presentation anyway.
well he aint the greatest magician Ive seen (well at least this performance was not great anyway) but I am also not a late person. I have trained my eyes to catch lots of the moves going on so I do not know how fair it is for me to say that he is not the greatest. But he is genuinely thought provocative and he is taking magic into a really new place. You see that mosts magicians are split into 2 groups. one group that tries to make people dumber by pretending that they have super powers and one that makes people smarter or leave them the same by explaining that are actually tricks. He falls definitely under the second group but his ideology varies a bit. And as a person who loves magic I can say that Im really happy that there are people like him who take the art form in a really nice place !
Nearly 10 min.s to get on with the trick?! Get on with it! and "yes", I started skipping ahead after about 5 minutes!.....Did I say, "Get on with it?"!, And "NO:, I couldn't watch 'till the end

underrated and brilliant and one of the best personalities while doing good sleight of hand that I've seen in a long time

One of the few thought provoking magicians I've seen while managing to be technically sound and entertaining.
I had the pleasure of watching this just at a time I needed to be reminded of wonderful things. Thank you.
I'm beginning to love and hate this guy he's charmingly flamboyant
Awesome! Thank God for magicians like this man!
Francis, thankyou for quoting Jerry Andrus ! ! !
Truly he was a special man .
watch in slow motion at 17:19 , you can clearly see him putting the pen behind his ears .
I love magic
Definitely brings out the "kid" in me
This man is the real life Loki
I helped Francis with a magic trick in Troy PA once

Coin magic is hard as fuck to pull off clean in front of cameras. Definitely harder than the false shuffles or the cups and balls.
awesomee...great skills
Well done!
Man, that camera angle shows him not putting the coin into the other hand the first time
1:12 Lennart Green like shuffle
T*****e shuffle
Is it palm Sunday?
Hand motions too identifiable, but misdirection was good.
Really awesome!
I believe I saw a gentleman in a "forest" one time use very similar patter with a Rubik's cube before? 😊
He is a real life fantastic beast guy.
Can someone explain to me that sleight of hand at 15:50? :o
Felipe Silveira could be a gimmick coin set, where one clicks into the other
he just damaged my brain
slow down the video and you can see ts all basic tricks.
its not magic, its tricks
alex gage wait magic doesn't exist
oh shush and just enjoy
I feel like his palming is pretty easy to read. Maybe it's on purpose.
wonderful
Hey Ted Mosby
I think he also looks a bit like Mike Mikkelsen :)
he went from cool to what the heck i dont understand towards the end!!
The coint stuff wasnt the best sleighto fhand Ive seen but the cups and balls surpassed what Ive seen before.
The cups and balls suck.
Dean Ocko after the first couple of times I saw what he was doing.
Dean Ocko didn't see the vegetables though
size of the fruits used was impressive
+Patrick O'Riley no, they don't.
The cards are not back in the original order in the 1st trick
supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
How did he get 3 balls under the same cup? I didn't get that one ;_;
well some say he had 6 balls in the first place...
TEDx is the realm for amateurs
Perfectly done ᵔᴥᵔ ★★★★★

Any guess to how many red balls was he using?
My guess: 5 balls
MuDasir Yaseen all of the ones he's had
wow
Hi
the coin tricks were lame but the I love the balls
Your coin handling was a lot worse than your ball handling. You are quite a fine ball handler.

he talks to much
The finicky spot partly flower because factory complementarily comb vice a male tower. wicked, uninterested air
