I love that trick because he could do it in less than 2 minutes but the actual trick itself is the he tells jokes for 10 minutes before finally having the women count out the cards.
In my personal opinion, he is the best magician when it come to audience management. Card tricks aren't all that great without good storytelling, but he takes it to another level. You sir, are amazing.
Angelo Serrano Angelo I hope this comment finds you well but I figured I would expedite the answer... Ricky Jay stands alone in theater performance or close-up Magic and he's a student and has almost every Magic Book written from the 1600s and has read them all and has memorized 90% of all of them thereby elaborating on what he's learned dot-dot-dot throws Cards into Watermelon guy Ricky Jay
This guy did my work party and he was absolutely amazing. I thought the best tricks were when he made people's thoughts appear in the deck, similar to what he did with Leonard, but much more developed than just the material shown here. He did a trick that seemed to be 10 minutes long, every few seconds unleashing another prestige. During it, he used information acquired from the audience to direct him to the card he needed from the deck. I study a lot of sleight of hand, card setup, flips, multi-card pulls, etc... and he's the first magician I've seen that I haven''t been able to piece together the combination of tools required to execute his tricks. Its almost enough to make me think he had shills, but they were my friggin' coworkers and I even I gave him information that led to a card needed for the story. Great stuff Hannibal!
In the other video with the other ladies, it's funny how he mixes do you want magic or sleight of hand, which will work with any trick. Very clever to grab a laugh.
3:28 he loads the King of Hearts from the Deck (I lie sometimes, e.g. the card wasn't in the deck) and places it below the card on the table. Great sleight of hand, but easy to spot if you know what to look for.
Thank you. How could you tell that Mr. Lovick was in the audience? The very next night, Jack Goldfinger and Max Maven were in the front row ... that's intimidating!
"I lie sometimes" I feel like this is the key. I won't spoil it for anyone else but I'll just say this was an amazing trick and your charisma and banter are top notch. You've earned yourself a fan. I wish you the best.
I love the fact that his magic is great and he’s so laid back, it’s almost like the tricks work by accident, I personally hate these big build up sequences some magicians use with fancy lights and pyrotechnics and stuff, it’s much more relatable and enjoyable when you can watch someone just doing great tricks care free. Only found you this morning Mr. Hannibal, if you ever come to England to do a show I’d absolutely love to come and see you. Keep up the good work!
The best magician I’ve ever seen and only 25k subscribers? Just goes to show that numbers don’t mean everything. Also a 7 year old video and you’re still active in the comments, you truly are an awesome dude
I hear you, should have many more followers, but to get TH-cam numbers these days you have to be affiliated with Chris Ramsay it seems like, He’s kind of revolutionized things a bit, although not a great stage performer even though he is talented
@@lokitakahashi3042 thats why he has millions of followers. always adapting his content. im a fan of ramsey but have massive respect for people who continue doing the same content they did 5-10 years ago because its their passion regardless of views
the less talented you are, the more subs you seem to get tbh..youtube is a joke. i mean like what fucking talents does jake paul, pewdiepie and all them idiots have ... nothing, yet this guy is arguably one of the best magicians in the world and doesnt even have 50k subs
Came for the magic, stayed for the entertainment. You carry yourself well, and the way you interact with your crowds is just fun. I've only discovered you within the past hour of posting this comment, but know that you've made yourself a new fan, Hannibal. I'm actually pretty shocked how small your base seems to be (in the grand scheme of things), but seeing that other people apart from myself have found you in the same way of random TH-cam recommendations within the past month or so is very encouraging. . . You're a talented man with a passion that brings many people joy. Keep at your craft and never lose the love.
Me (2020): "Three of Hearts" Leonard (2011): "Three of Hearts" Hannibal: "And here's your card!" I didn't think magic tricks were supposed to work across time and space. I guess this is subliminal messaging??? I'm really impressed you can make people's choices that predictable!
Same here! First pick was 2 of diamonds. When he said "Pick a completely different card," I CLEVERLY thought to myself: "Hahah! He's expecting me to pick some number far away from my first pick, like a 10 or a face card, so I'll be Smart (TM) and pick the very next number, a THREE!" Then I also said to myself, "And I'll change the suit to really mess with his brain, but I won't go for the other color, no, because that's what suckers do! I'll keep it red and pick Hearts! THREE of HEARTS, that's my new, incredibly sneaky, ultimo-obfuscated choice! Now HE'S the Sucker! Enjoy those fava beans and chianti, Hannibal! They've been deep-frozen, like the best dish of revenge....EVER!!!!! HAHAAAHAAHAAA" Then he shows the 3 of hearts and I cry. Bravo, sir. Brah-voh!
I cannot like this hard enough. I don't know why TH-cam is suddenly showing me these recordings nine years afterward but I'm very thankful I got to see them now! Hannibal you're AMAZING and brightened my day!
"I love you because you're watching every move and really following this and I do appreciate it". You sir, are a true magician, one who doesn't get a thrill from people laughing or making polite eye contact the whole time but you get a rush from knowing you fooled someone who was trying their absolute best to catch you. I think that even if I never saw any of your other work, that line alone makes you easily one of my favorite magicians.
Best trick ever..no not the cards. The fact that Hannibal makes an amazing video and it stays hidden for 9 years only to be seen in a bunch of feeds within the last month. AND...still likes the comments...Bravo!
Just randomly came on this and just wow. The showmanship and crowd control is absolutely top notch. This + your other videos show you're and absolute wizard of slight of hand. Amazing sir.
There are no words on this planet that could possibly perfectly decribe the beautiful and amazing experience that I have just witnessed while watching this video. This? This is blessed!
I found him on accident when I looked up magic on TH-cam. He's one of the most talented magicians I've seen. The thing that differentiated him from the rest is his story telling. It legitimately makes me laugh and it makes all the tricks all the better. Good luck and please keep up the good work.
Just found you tonight, because the Algorithm suggested the Second Oldest Slight of Hand Trick. I've a lot of catching up to do it seems. This, my most excellent sir, is nothing short of amazing. Truly, a more wonderful bard I cannot envision. Like a cross between Jack Black and Orsen Wells.
I don’t know if you still read the comments, but I just wanted to say what an absolute pleasure it was to stumble upon your YT channel. I used to be an amateur magician back about 10-15 years ago. I gave up the hobby many years ago, but I still fiddle around with a deck of cards every now and then. By complete coincidence I found your performance of the cups and balls, and I have gone down a rabbit hole of watching all your performances here. This has given me such a wave of nostalgia - I forgot how much I loved watching magic shows when I was a teen. It’s hard to explain the feeling, but it almost reminds me of being a child completely mesmerized by watching their first trick. Thanks for bringing back so many fond memories. ❤
Chris, I just want to say that while I have never had the pleasure of going to one of your shows, I love every video like this. The charisma and humor in this routine is so enjoyable it is unmatched. I love it so much!
I've seen lots of magicians in my time, both live and on TH-cam, but Hannibal is possibly the most astonishing of them all. Perfect audience control, utterly charming, and he made me laugh so much that I didn't even feel any pain from my recent heart surgery. An absolute genius. Thank you so very much for making my day just that little brighter.
I have never seen a magician with such a conversational style. It's like you're doing this with friends every time, it works best in these more intimate settings I imagine
Between the cards, the humor, and the quick wit this has to be the best act I've seen in a long, long time. Thank you sincerely for the laughs, they came at a very good time.
I believe this is the 5-6th video I've seen, of your great routine. *flawless* and so *dynamic* i love your crowd control. Have a great time, and all the best to you in the future. -Best Regards Thomas
Hannibal, I was lucky enough to watch you do your excellent version of the cups and balls about ten years ago at Reynolda Gardens. Flawless, and thoroughly entertaining. It is so cool to see you at the Magic Castle! Fantastic. I love your presentation style.
This guy is just so polished and engaging. I don't even try to figure out what he's doing when I watch his videos because it's so enjoyable to just watch. And at the end of each performance I realize that I've been smiling the whole time.
Now that's what I call entertaining! He knows how to put up a great show and that's one of the key parts of showing sleight of hand. Truly amazing and inspiring for young magicians like me.
WHEN HE ASKED TO RETHINK OF ANOTHER CARD I WAS THINKING 3 OF HEARTS AND HE SAID THAT OOOOOHHHHH AND HE JUST HEARTED IT ON A 9 YEAR OLD VIDEO JESUS CHRIST THIS LEGEND
I have to say I have only just gotten into preforming magic and you are my inspiration for a lot of the jokes and rise and inflection I have worked into my act I am so excited to preform it in front of my friends and family I wanna thank you soooo much for making me laugh each and every time I watch one of your performances it would be an absolute dream of mine to eventually get to meet or even preform a trick for you thank you so much for being the awesome performer you are
May I suggest for your first trick you learn to perform magic rather than preform magic? That red squiggly line that is under half the things you write before you hit reply? That's not a decorative thing you know. It means you ballsed up. :)
I've been binge watching videos from the Magic Castle, I can't stop smiling magic just makes me feel so happy I felt the need to write this comment and let y'all know :) Greetings from Mexico!
I'm stunned by your performance, humour, and how you deal with audience is just amazing. Your wizardry bring smile to my face every time I see it. And this is not a sleight of hands, this is a pure magic. I wish I could see this live. Bravo!
Hello Chris. Not sure if we have met before, if we have its been in passing. I came across this clip and just thought I would drop a comment. When someone has a routine that has clearly been thought out, polished and is very powerful ....it deserves praise. Very good job, j thoroughly enjoyed it and encourage you to keep moving forward as its obvious from this clip...your heading in the right direction. Keep up the good work. Tremendous props my friend. Have a wonderful holiday.
Mate you are epic, just been watching your video's and well the cup trick and this one are really the best! Hope you will get to where you want to be mate cause you are awesome!
Ben...you're giving me ideas for when I'm rich! Why the hell not have a school of witchcraft and wizardry? Lol. It will be a regular middle and high school, but also instead of regular sports and other extracurricular like drama or whatever, it's magic and acrobatics. Then we release those witches and wizards on the muggles and their real special power is the ability to get laid a lot. 😄
How the hell did I find out about this guy only now. Amazing storytelling, hilarious, and the tricks are really well executed. He deserves much more recognition!
Such a master! Not only incredible magic but excellent command of the audience. Everyone is in shock at the tricks that he has to remind them to applaud, I keep realising I'm sat here with my mouth wide open lmao!
This man was made for entertainment I can barely sit through most tv shows for more then 15 minutes and I've been binging this guys tricks for the last 2 hours. Class act
This is so enjoyable! I don't know what brought me here, but now it's Sunday night 3 a.m. and I am binge-watching your videos for the last six hours. You, sir! Are! Amazing!
What I like about this dude's act is that he treats his conversational form of stand up comedy like it's just as important as the magic. It's a thoroughly entertaining combo and he's a great at both; I've seen great sleight of hand before, but this man truly stands out for just how damn funny he is. Loving your videos lately
'Bout 9 months ago, I got into a Magic kick, watching a bunch of magic tricks on youtube, the majority of which where from Penn and Teller's show, but not nearly all of them, Hannibal never shows up. Tonight, I'm listening to game music, Hannibal shows up, I click, and instantly like him. What is wrong with TH-cam's algorithm? Great magician, amazing showman, I am a new fan. Time in binge a bunch of your videos.
@@thesubhranil1 that's a cheap explanation. is that the only explanation? is there not a "psychology" to this thing? like the common cards that people think under pressure kinda thing? because i thought of 3 of hearts too, you know? i wanna refrain from audience plants especially with this guy's tricks
When I watch magic, I am usually dissecting and trying to undo what the magician is doing every step of the way. Solving the puzzles if you will, but when I find myself watching your magic, your banter, I am again a child and the wonder and mystery are real again. Bravo.
Ok this performance was actually perfect. I like the small audience and this kind of more intimate feeling. Like its just a few friends hanging out having fun.
Pure entertainment from start to finish. The corny jokes are as good as the slight of hand, and together, they're simply brilliant. I could watch you all day. One of the best magician's I have seen in a long time. I'm guessing there's more practice on display here than one run through in the McDonald's drive thru on the way to the show.....There must be at least a weekend's worth........
Do you *really* want to know? cuz if so, make 9 other comments after this one, I'll explain the last trick after, so that people don't just see it on showing the reply. But, really, why not enjoy the magic?
A decade on this pops up in my recommended and I couldn't be happier. I *think* at one point he finds any card at any number but other than that I'm pretty much bamboozled. What a sickeningly talented and funny guy.
Been binge watching his videos for an hour now, amazing. 9 years "too late" If I had known about him before I could've shown this to so many more people, I mean I can still do it now, but imagine 9 years of not knowing about such a charismatic, talented guy.
I cant believe I have found this so late... This is probably the best magic performance ever. I am stunned how good you are with interacting with the audience! Never seen anything like this before.
I really enjoy the message and themes he embeds in his tricks. He has skills with magic and tricks but his performance side and storytelling is topnotch. Thanks for sharing these!
This dude is still giving hearts to comments 9 years after the video. What a legend.
Why stop there? Let's make him give spades instead of hearts!
hearts didn't even exist 9 years ago

He is still hearting comments after 9 years. What an absolute legend
'Scuse me I'm only learning about this guy 9 years after this video?!?!?! You're my new favorite magician!

i dont know why youtube recommended these videos out of the blue. but am still watching, hours later still impressed from his performance and humor
I like how he mixes magic and sleight of hand with a little stand up comedy thrown in, it makes it more enjoyable
Don't forget the psychology
his sleight is average, but the personality adds so much to the show. its what makes him stand out.
what a performer dude .... been binging his vids .... What a legend .... how am i finding about him now 10 yrs later...

HELP! I've fallen down the rabbit hole. Yep only just discovered Hannibal. Brilliant!! Greetings from the South Coast of the UK.
4:20-4:28 Old Spice reference?
Yeah
Wow oh wow! Truly a mesmerizing performance. Love Hannibal’s organic impeccable humor. Thank you Hannibal for a world class show!
Mate you are epic, just been watching your video's and well the cup trick and this one are really the best! Hope you will get to where you want to be mate cause you are awesome!
ARENSA thank you!
@@HannibalSpeaks I gotta say your favorite trick is mine as well lol
@@OfficialMageHD I like his version much better than David Blaine (spelling)
Can’t stop binging this guy. Just such a great blend of talent and likability
So what do we do now? Do we build a school around him and call him Dumbledore?
Ben...you're giving me ideas for when I'm rich! Why the hell not have a school of witchcraft and wizardry? Lol. It will be a regular middle and high school, but also instead of regular sports and other extracurricular like drama or whatever, it's magic and acrobatics.
Then we release those witches and wizards on the muggles and their real special power is the ability to get laid a lot. 😄
How the hell did I find out about this guy only now. Amazing storytelling, hilarious, and the tricks are really well executed. He deserves much more recognition!
Much love from Sweden, you are amazing! If I ever get a chance to see you live I will do it for sure!
+Deacon Frost Thank you!
dude you are awsome
Such a master! Not only incredible magic but excellent command of the audience. Everyone is in shock at the tricks that he has to remind them to applaud, I keep realising I'm sat here with my mouth wide open lmao!
Christin should have said: "They are at the place no man has ever been"
Her/his parents didn´t know what gender Christian is, so they chose this name. And so far nobody knows ...
This man was made for entertainment I can barely sit through most tv shows for more then 15 minutes and I've been binging this guys tricks for the last 2 hours. Class act
This is so enjoyable! I don't know what brought me here, but now it's Sunday night 3 a.m. and I am binge-watching your videos for the last six hours. You, sir! Are! Amazing!
Markus Walter Friday night 2am here, I totally relate
i hope you never stopped magic
we need a bit of light, and you're a goddamn lighthouse. your jokes, your skill and how good your shows are...
This is how charming every redditor THINKS they are 😂
What I like about this dude's act is that he treats his conversational form of stand up comedy like it's just as important as the magic. It's a thoroughly entertaining combo and he's a great at both; I've seen great sleight of hand before, but this man truly stands out for just how damn funny he is. Loving your videos lately
A group of human beings having fun...
Your talent is a gift. Your skill is a prize. Your brilliance is a blessing. Your genius is our reward.
"Probably pretty good"
'Bout 9 months ago, I got into a Magic kick, watching a bunch of magic tricks on youtube, the majority of which where from Penn and Teller's show, but not nearly all of them, Hannibal never shows up. Tonight, I'm listening to game music, Hannibal shows up, I click, and instantly like him. What is wrong with TH-cam's algorithm? Great magician, amazing showman, I am a new fan. Time in binge a bunch of your videos.
someone explain the 3 of hearts trick. i’m confused
two people from the audience was in the trick.
Accomplice in the audience
@@thesubhranil1 that's a cheap explanation. is that the only explanation? is there not a "psychology" to this thing? like the common cards that people think under pressure kinda thing? because i thought of 3 of hearts too, you know? i wanna refrain from audience plants especially with this guy's tricks
When I watch magic, I am usually dissecting and trying to undo what the magician is doing every step of the way. Solving the puzzles if you will, but when I find myself watching your magic, your banter, I am again a child and the wonder and mystery are real again. Bravo.
Hannibal the only overweight man ik that does good with the ladies what a legend being overweight myself
As long as you got confidence, you can be as fat as you want and still get more girls than a buff dude. Just sayin
Ok this performance was actually perfect. I like the small audience and this kind of more intimate feeling. Like its just a few friends hanging out having fun.
There was someone in the audience wearing a ring and clapping their glass and idk why but it annoyed me a lot
Thanks for sharing 😂
stoner spotted hehe
@@djbhavesh_blr I've never thrown a rock at someone in my life, officer
Pure entertainment from start to finish. The corny jokes are as good as the slight of hand, and together, they're simply brilliant. I could watch you all day. One of the best magician's I have seen in a long time. I'm guessing there's more practice on display here than one run through in the McDonald's drive thru on the way to the show.....There must be at least a weekend's worth........
Ho... how?? O.o
Do you *really* want to know? cuz if so, make 9 other comments after this one, I'll explain the last trick after, so that people don't just see it on showing the reply. But, really, why not enjoy the magic?
@@DorthLous i would like to know. Assistants in the audience?
Need more replies first to hide my response.
Legend..!! Magicians are among the best stand up comedians imo and u r an Og..Love ur magic and crowd work. Hats off to u sir !!
I just got those recommended to me and I've been binge watching them. It's not just magic tricks, it's a whole performance.
How is it possible that I haven't heard of him ? He is so good man. Respect !
A decade on this pops up in my recommended and I couldn't be happier. I *think* at one point he finds any card at any number but other than that I'm pretty much bamboozled. What a sickeningly talented and funny guy.
Bro this guy makes the perfect mix of comedy and magic, truly a masterpiece.
I bet they all had an amazing night, that was brilliant and felt so much more relaxed and natural. Thank you
Been binge watching his videos for an hour now, amazing. 9 years "too late" If I had known about him before I could've shown this to so many more people, I mean I can still do it now, but imagine 9 years of not knowing about such a charismatic, talented guy.
TH-cam should've sent me here earlier because I fuckin' love this dude.
I cant believe I have found this so late... This is probably the best magic performance ever. I am stunned how good you are with interacting with the audience! Never seen anything like this before.
Very glad you enjoyed it!
I just found this guy. Funny and great tricks. Who doesn’t like a good magic show. Wish I could see him live.
Hannibal your so fantastic, cant get enough of your vids! Its pure magic
Bless the youtube recommendation algorithm for finding me my new favorite magician!
I really enjoy the message and themes he embeds in his tricks. He has skills with magic and tricks but his performance side and storytelling is topnotch. Thanks for sharing these!
