I went to a Ben Earl lecture last night and I have to say, his style handling and tips and tricks blew me away. Great handling of the cards and controls.
Devanand Dhanraj 🤔 what I’m saying is how is he controlling the card *while* the shuffles, not before. I mean, yes, his pass is impressive but that’s not what I’m talking about. Unless what I’ve missed is a steal?
@@devananddhanrajcardmagicia7048 you could have just said yo guys look at me I know how its done Im the cool one but my suoer sectrect knowledge us so secret only true cool guys like me have the right to know ut so I not gonna tell you unimportant piece of sh*t
He probably put some ChapStick or a dab of pritfix or similar on his forehead beforehand. Plus classic pass, shuffle control, and top change. Plenty of skill.
@@CristianKirk its a lift shuffle one of the most amazing single card false shuffles and he dies it so clean if you dont know about it go learn it its actually not that difficult you can control a stack of maby 10 cards on the top really cleanly
It’s smooth... but it’s lending way too much weight to it. A stronger effect would have been achieved by throwing all 52 cards on the floor while shouting “FIND IT YOURSELF, YOU IDIOT!”. That would truly be a moment to remember.
Although the handling is excellent, I think that from the time the cheat is made until the final disclosure, the time that elapses is excessive, making the initial situation and final situation difficult in the memory of the spectator.
Bad presentation. Fitzkee quite rightly says any ‘change’ should have a limited time between seeing the old and the new....this has loads of unnecessary waffle in their that detracts from the effect of the change. This is how not to do it.,
For a start read the Fitzkee trilogy and apply it to this trick. There's something really fundamental mentioned in those books and most other basic magic texts that he doesn't do here and it cheats the trick out of its impact.
Charles Brewer I believe you are completely wrong about what you are saying. I know everyone has a different opinion but you need to respect how hard hitting his effects are. He absolutely blows audiences away with his material so I don't see what is wrong about not sticking to the classics. I feel like you are a magician of the older generation and you are too stuck in your ways to not realise that there is a new generation that is growing who don't constantly do ambitious card at every gig.
Elliot Gerrard What kind of kid would go through all the comments to defend his favourite magician. He is maybe among the top 3 cardmen in the world, but not even between the top 50 magicians in the whole world...
This guy litrally thinks he is the guru of presentation, believes he has some super talent to maximise and create profound magical moments.....his magic sucks
Philip Rose you are entitled to your own opinion but if you know nothing about what he is doing and the theory behind it you should keep comments like this to yourself. Ben puts time and effort into entertaining people and all you want to do is put him down? I feel like you don't have a good personality.
Your jealous mate, as if you even have the slightest skill to preform like him. I went to his lecture and even him trying to explain he still fools some of the top magicians
This is a real great, simple trick. You just need to be able to do a half pass, some false shuffles or at least remain the card at top, and a card switch
You need to know that you don't need to do 10 sleights in every trick you do. Ben has structured this routine in such a way that it is simple and easy to follow not doing 10 shuffles and unusual cuts.
@@marlon_phoenix ohhh , I just wanted to express the experience of a beautiful piece of skill and presentation where even after knowing the moves , it still amazes me . in fact , the fact that I know the SECRET and still the smoothness of card handling baffles me is so fascinating to me .
@@deepanjanmudi2678 then im sorry for commenting that it just sounded like so many other comments that just want to flex because they know the secret but i completely agree with you
start at 52 seconds.... then look at 57 seconds he shuffled the Queen to top of deck then slipped the duece under top as they were exchanged in one smooth movement
Such a Great Presentaion
It's amazing what a magician can do after coming here from a Pigcake video
Yup
:3 "Slightly different." Sleightlyyyy different. ;p
Daniel Madison mentionen Benjamin Earl. :3

Woah, such a simple sleight, such a great trick

i am cringing with these comments
James Reddick pigcake agrees (watch his most recent vid)
A man of culture
That overhand shuffle is far too clean, I need to know how he is even controlling the card while shuffling like that.
You missed something before he started shuffling
Devanand Dhanraj 🤔 what I’m saying is how is he controlling the card *while* the shuffles, not before. I mean, yes, his pass is impressive but that’s not what I’m talking about. Unless what I’ve missed is a steal?

You dont need chapstick to have it stick to your forehead. The natural oils in your skin should be sufficient. Just try pressing it to your forehead
😂😂😂😂
Bit of sticky of his forehead
Benjamin Earl is one of THE best sleight of hand magicians in the world. He fooled Penn & Teller like he was eating a sandwich. Had them baffled.
Hopefully vegan style. Hehe
I'm most baffled by the shuffle. Never seen overhand shuffles that clean.
Yes that false shuffle so clean
So, does this shuffle have a name?

@@CristianKirk lift shuffle, ben teaches this in his download session
why does the 2 of diamonds keep showing up in every one of his tricks?
The manner of control is 2nd to none.
he looks a bit like charlie day. Great way to present a very simple card trick
I might be on a zoom call with him in two days lol cya then

if you want it revealved, go to 0:54 and watch his hands closely
damn!, so smooth
easyest top change ever BUT this guy is quite possible among top 3 living cardmen today
igor svakurac at least I've found someone who can respect what he can do.
"Slightly different." Sleightlyyyy different. ;p
Daniel Madison mentioned him.
That is a pretty smooth ummmm..... im going too say up swap.
Although the handling is excellent, I think that from the time the cheat is made until the final disclosure, the time that elapses is excessive, making the initial situation and final situation difficult in the memory of the spectator.
I felt that and you put it into words perfectly
Brilliant plot/frame!!!
Ben is so fast....its sick🤔💯💯💯💯💯
0:54 is so impressive
freak
this false shuffle, though
Outstanding TC.
I choose option 3
amazing what being immune to face to face misdirection, slo-mo, a pause and replay button can do.
What's the move he does at :24 called
@@Mahatheyew classic pass
Good top Change👍
I kinda cringed when he threw the cards. I would have died if they were more expensive cards like Theory 11 or Madisons.
His handling of a deck of cards is superb, he really pass ;D it of as if he did nothing.
daniel madison
moose43h nope
lol i did not ask
moose43h I am just expressing the feelings everyone In magic community has towards him. He's just a meme at this point.
Go buy his 100 dollar downloads that do the same 2 tricks over and Iver again , wrapped in pretty different coloured boxes 😅
To the average person, this kind of presentation would leave them confused rather than mystified.
Not a magician fooler, but oh so clean! Laymen don't have a chance. Nicely done!
caught the method
classic pass into a top change is all the trick is. beautiful presentation though.
Excellent
Cody Allen so why did you have to say that?
feel special now because you kinow how the trick is done?
like uH LoOk aT Me i kNoW hOW hE diD THat BeCAuSe iM A mAgICIan tOo lOoK at MEEEEEEEEE

0:54. That's when he does the switch from the diamond to the the Queen. His shuffling technique was insane!

TheBicycleMaster99 Do you know what a half pass is?
bro do you even hafe pass
he didnt do a half pass.He did classic pass,few controled shuffles and a top change
Maybe true. But a single over hand Shuffle straight into a riffle shuffle, with no jogs?
You need to know that you don't need to do 10 sleights in every trick you do. Ben has structured this routine in such a way that it is simple and easy to follow not doing 10 shuffles and unusual cuts.
Spread pass,top change
first of all you arent even right about the first one second of all who the f*ck cares about you knowing that what does commenting this give you?
Ohh that classic pass , the false overhand shuffle n the top change....orgasmic....
do you feel good about yourself know because you told the world you know how a trick is done....because it certanly sound like that

An example of someone not knowing how to present a card trick. Read fitzkee then apply it, then you'll get a proper reaction. Poor.
At the risk of sounding ignorant, what was wrong with his presentation?
Sam Visser I believe he is stuck in the ways of the older generation of magic who are obsessed with ambitious card.
Saw the switch at 0:55, very cleanly done
can you show me the bus with the people who care about you knowing? cause i dont see it at all
@@marlon_phoenix bro your comeback are just amazing. Have you roasted all of the douchebag magician who reveal the method.
Classic pass, shuffle control, top change.
Old as the hills, but flawless execution.
0:55 He switches cards look
EDIT: Watch in slo motion if you cant see
Omg! You're right! You must be an amazing magician! How did you see that??
@@e2myearly288 I'm no magician, bit I watch a lot of Penn And Teller For Some reason. 😂
