I love his sense of wonder, I think he is incredibly likable and an insanely talented magician. That was one of the best routines I’ve ever seen, and I’ve been a fan of magic for 60 years. It was one magical moment after another, after another!
Well, obviously, i couldn't have appreciated the fullness of the act until i had seen all of it... and i am even more astounded. Thank you Eric. Only love and astoundment.
I wish for every great thing that anyone wishes for performing their duty in service for their country. Magic may well be the best thing imaginable. I love you, Eric.
"you don't know how good you are", but at the same time when asked if he is better then one of the best in the world, he didn't want to answer. he knows exactly how good he is.
I commented just prior to hearing your story... having seen your act, your act is also the best thing imaginable. I love you even more than I did before, which means to say, i just love you.
i dunno why he was putting up an act when he literally top 10 god tier magicians i hate these shows for these reason. he already famous and he performed 1000x time already including asians got talent to everything
To anyone who follow, Eric Chien has been performing this very same set of magic for years. The nerve prior to the performance was a mere act. This guy is one of the best out there Oh Simon...he definitely knew how good he is
Asian guys are usually pretty reserved. They don’t normally brag about themselves and don’t express their emotions very outwardly. A big sigh and smile probably is to show happy, excited, relieved, disappointed, surprised, embarrassed or other feelings … … 😂 and a little bit nervousness in all circumstances. so I am inclined to believe that’s just the way he is.
It is crazy how these judges were absolutely oblivious about Chien, they are talking to him as if he were a teenager (don't compare to anyone else/you looked more confused than us/it is your time/etc...). Chien is a champion of magic, winner of FISM with the first routine with the cards and coins, which is a competition of the best magicians in the planet. It was baffling routine even for other magicians.
This kids got some serious skills guaranteed he learned a lot of this or was motivated by Shin Lin without a doubt because that was some serious card coin slide a hand…. He is beyond extraordinary and is the future.
Real magic doesn't exist, there is always an explanation, but hey he is really really good, mostly I figured it out, but some tricks are perfectly executed. His first audition was the best.
He showed his best act, also his signature, in the first round already. The 2nd round the special part was at the end where he vanished that coin on the judge's hands before so many eyes, the rest of the act looked cool in the surface but if you watch a lot of magic that is a very popular routine and can be done by a lot of magicians. So it's safe to say he has only one act of his own and he already showed it at the audition, the rest was going down hill cuz he couldn't create of anything else in such a short amount of time.
@@Luluandbebe I would not say he only has 1 act, but only 1 act that fits this format. I suspect if you went to a show of his, he could fill a lot more time, but needs props, and setups that can't be done on a talent stage.
they present him as if he's nothing known. The fact is that he won the "world cup" of magic 2018, the year before AGT with the very trick that he used as his first performance.
the key to these shows is to not make 1st place but instead go in second or third place. They make u sign some real B.S contracts if you end up first place. while 2nd and third place are let go to do whatever they want after getting the massive advertising from the show itself via just regular broadcasts.
Even though his early performances were the same ones from other "Who's got talent" shows around the world, so I wasn't exactly shocked by how great they were, that last one left me speechless... but not in a good way. I mean it was rather simplistic for the tricks that they showed, and for the one they didn't thanks to the "fabulous" camera work... well lets just say magic works better when you're watching the trick and get fooled, the "don't look over here" is something my kid would do when he was 6, so either the judges/audience saw someone from under the table put those figurines on the table while the camera was focused on him, or they saw them rise through trap doors or something, but to simply manipulate me with the camera not showing a part of the table, then focusing back is very pedestrian. And that sucks because Eric Chien is a good magician, that trick just fell very flat (no pun).
Is this E Ink? I saw a bag brand Delvaux, in which the bag surpface can change to designed color by clicking a button. That could make this game possible.
It just sucks that he performed his best act as the audition. This routine likely would have won him the entire competition had he made it to the finals and performed it, it was that good.
Great show, Eric! Man, the Taiwan regime is oppressive. To mandate a US resident (citizen?) to military service? And to oppress individuality? Couldn’t even bring your cards/etc to your dorm? Man that’s unreal. I am glad you are back at States side, and done with the oppressive Taipei regime. Good luck to you in your career!
I could say he is amazing, but I feel Eric that would be akin to saying you are good. Every thing you done is beyond belief, beyond slight of hand, It is just like yourself, Pure Magic, Even if you did not make number one spot at the end, you in my eyes earned your place on any world stage as the best there is. You don't have a great future ahead of you, You are in a great future right now.
I think, he is fantastic, but the last one, where everybody in the audience was seeing the table, but we did not, was a bit fishy... And if a whole lego set would appear out of thin air in front of me, my reaction would be more in awe like they actually were...
This guy is fantastic. I hope he never gives up his dream, because he has made it.
I love his sense of wonder, I think he is incredibly likable and an insanely talented magician. That was one of the best routines I’ve ever seen, and I’ve been a fan of magic for 60 years. It was one magical moment after another, after another!
wow 60 years im young
That's what I see in you right now
@@StanimirBorovyou can afford it
Well, obviously, i couldn't have appreciated the fullness of the act until i had seen all of it... and i am even more astounded. Thank you Eric. Only love and astoundment.
That was incredible
His audition was one of my all time fav magic performances.
That was the best magic show I have ever seen. At 78 years old that saying something. Well done young man. Absolutely amazing 👍
He's Really, Really Good. Great Performance.
I wish for every great thing that anyone wishes for performing their duty in service for their country. Magic may well be the best thing imaginable. I love you, Eric.
"you don't know how good you are", but at the same time when asked if he is better then one of the best in the world, he didn't want to answer. he knows exactly how good he is.
He is very good at what he does, that would be an understatement
hes....ok at what he does... lets not go overboard
@@alexrompen805you are a sad person… fix yourself
@@alexrompen805you do it
Impossible from mars
@@alexrompen805yeah don't get me wrong. I can't understand it either.
😂😂 I love it! this act was outstanding it always makes me dream and believe in magic and it also was light and funny.
This is a repeat of his routine on Penn and Teller but this only reminded me of how good this was.
I assume he did not fool Penn and Teller? But very nicely done.
One of the best magicians ever....
I commented just prior to hearing your story... having seen your act, your act is also the best thing imaginable. I love you even more than I did before, which means to say, i just love you.
Eric is so so so good 🥰
He is one of the best magicians around.
He needed and deserved the golden buzzer!!
Eric Chien is as talented Shin Lim. The difference is Shin Lim has the swag that made him great...I'm supporting Eric because he represents Htown!
He won FISM the year before...I'm pretty sure he knows how good he is... easily in the conversation with Shin Lim
i dunno why he was putting up an act when he literally top 10 god tier magicians i hate these shows for these reason.
he already famous and he performed 1000x time already including asians got talent to everything
He’s amazing!!
Agreed! He’s awesome!

Oh Simon...he definitely knew how good he is
*knows
Is this necessary?
and we're to just take your words for it? how do you know the nerve was a mere act. and I agree with BruceMilpitas "Is this necessary?"
yep just a mere google search shows hes been winning asia got talent season 3 vinner in 2019, he was also in BGT champion, but BGT and AGT is so fake

He just set the standard for sleight of hand.
I am speechless 🙊 nobody does that
Masterfull!
Good ole virtual land always entertaining.
He’s the best magician ever on that show
😮 this is insane. How!!!????
Graceful
Amazing performance
You first, bo.
Incredible 👏👏👏 ‼️ Genius
Taiwan ROC and Houston proud of him !
By the way i saw the table cloth cover on the video but still incredible performance!
clearly a fan of shin lim!! very good presentation.
He made it look so easy and natural. How did it happen?!
That is an amazing prop table. It is seamless. He has amazing slight of hand also. Magnets still mystify me.
It's incredible!
This is unfair...he deserved golden buzzer from the first one.
FANTASTIC
Still cant believe they did not press the golden buzzer during his audition
While logically, you know it is a trick, it is okay to let yourself go and believe in magic! His skill level is unbelievable!
Amazing! Taiwanese represent for extra bonus!
Extremely entertaining and very talented
WOW!

Thats thing about magnetism you cant see it, but you can see it change things
First one was much better than the latter ones.
Wonderful.!!!👍👍👍💖💖💖❤❤❤🧡🧡🧡
i guess even shin lim is stunned
Very good
just wow
This kids got some serious skills guaranteed he learned a lot of this or was motivated by Shin Lin without a doubt because that was some serious card coin slide a hand…. He is beyond extraordinary and is the future.
太棒了!!!
that was real magic, obviously.
thats magic..and a story
Real magic doesn't exist, there is always an explanation, but hey he is really really good, mostly I figured it out, but some tricks are perfectly executed. His first audition was the best.
🎉🎉🎉he is amazing
Magic!
idc what u say but dude is a wizard
This was real magic, which is unthinkable!
Amazing.
The first 2 shows were unbelievable! The best I've ever seen! Friggin real magic, it seems like! The third act was a letdown.
He showed his best act, also his signature, in the first round already. The 2nd round the special part was at the end where he vanished that coin on the judge's hands before so many eyes, the rest of the act looked cool in the surface but if you watch a lot of magic that is a very popular routine and can be done by a lot of magicians. So it's safe to say he has only one act of his own and he already showed it at the audition, the rest was going down hill cuz he couldn't create of anything else in such a short amount of time.
It takes years to prefect this kind of thing, I suspect he just ran out of content that fits the TV shows format, and had to put something together.
@@Luluandbebe I would not say he only has 1 act, but only 1 act that fits this format. I suspect if you went to a show of his, he could fill a lot more time, but needs props, and setups that can't be done on a talent stage.

Definitely asom❤
watch at 0.25x speed.. everything will be revealed.
Decent magician.

And that sucks because Eric Chien is a good magician, that trick just fell very flat (no pun).
if you pay attention to his hands and movements you'll see how he does it, i.e. hand goes behind the table to grap the coins, etc.
Him and Lim should've been in the same competition.
Why not Golden Buzz? . It's simple because he's my fellow Asian.
Cool
Is this E Ink? I saw a bag brand Delvaux, in which the bag surpface can change to designed color by clicking a button. That could make this game possible.
"your so humble." while giving the middle finger.
This dude is freaking me out.
insane
Simon did not think his magic was already big.
Thats how good you need to be to win FISM
It just sucks that he performed his best act as the audition. This routine likely would have won him the entire competition had he made it to the finals and performed it, it was that good.
Nah ur high as a kite
@@jackpeters7464well, that’s your opinion. And that’s cool.
What in the.....wait....
I think I know how he walked on to the stage...other then that WOW!
At the end should ask them: Am i answer ur question
Great show, Eric!
Man, the Taiwan regime is oppressive. To mandate a US resident (citizen?) to military service? And to oppress individuality? Couldn’t even bring your cards/etc to your dorm?
Man that’s unreal.
I am glad you are back at States side, and done with the oppressive Taipei regime.
Good luck to you in your career!
You mean the last act, live audience didn’t catch where the coins go before the coins on white sheet disappeared?
Hes performing in front of a green screen. you can tell there is a green hue on his shirt. No camera dolly or steadicam shots
Taiwanese is good people 👍👍👍
His best trick is disappearing when it's his round at the bar
"Here on AGT magic is KING!" (@1:52) Jesus is not amused...
I could say he is amazing, but I feel Eric that would be akin to saying you are good. Every thing you done is beyond belief, beyond slight of hand, It is just like yourself, Pure Magic, Even if you did not make number one spot at the end, you in my eyes earned your place on any world stage as the best there is.

😲👏👏👏👍
Music background please ? 14:30
These are the work of Jin…
If he is already an American, how could he still be called back to Taiwan for national service?
Magic is the devil/demons. You wanna play with them?
In America, you need to say "Yes, I'm better than him. I'm the best".
Yeh, in Taiwan they practice modesty, but he speaks English quite well.
Isn't there the saying "if you think you're great, there is always an Asian somewhere even greater!"
❤
I think, he is fantastic, but the last one, where everybody in the audience was seeing the table, but we did not, was a bit fishy... And if a whole lego set would appear out of thin air in front of me, my reaction would be more in awe like they actually were...
where is the golden buzzer ?
why the lies? he has been performing in many talent shows before
All the screaming, OMG
