Ben's charisma is beaming.
thank you!!
@@TheComedyAndMagic wow your are really cool
The greatest thing about magic for me is knowing how it's done but being unable to spot it. It's a testament to untold hours of practice and innumerable failures before perfection happened.
If anyone has any questions, I'm doing an AMA at LAX airport today at noon.
Maybe don't mention your a pickpocket on an airport
@@churibmanI didn’t get your comment until now. Going to need you to come bail me out.
A magician exposing airport security theater would actually make a great act
Do you have a recommendation for a book or two for psychological magic?
In 2010, a guy stole my wallet on a train by trying to get me to sign a petition. He had his arm in a cast and shoved the clipboard towards me while he picked my pocket. Weird thing is he looked a lot like you.
Ben is a freakin' legend. Everything the guy does is gold.
Being a magician, I really like how he explains thing whilst also protecting some of our secrets. A true performer 👍
Our secrets? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@aarronwilson5647
Yes. Magicians have secrets known through the community
PLEASE invite Ben more!! He's my favorite guest you guys bring on
Ben Seidman may be the best person you get for any "insider reviews things" series than anyone else I've seen.
what I love more about sleight of hand is, even if you have some idea of how it was made, you can still be VERY impressed by the sheer amount of workmanship that goes into doing it so smoothly and appearing effortless
Love hearing the crew laughing in the background.
Thanks for watching!
You're an absolute delight to watch, Ben. I hope we see more of you here!
Please come back for more videos
Thank youuuu for the show! ❤
You are amazing Ben loved to watch more of you ♥
I was just watching his first video last night for the millionth time and wished Vanity Fair would have him back. He's delightful.
We need more of him on this series
Thank you!
So glad you had Ben back - he's truly the best 🙂
Thanks buddy!
How casually he said he's a pick pocket lol
Its some of the most fun magic to perform with a crowd
He has a video on a different channel doing pickpocketing
I'm so glad they brought this guy back! He's such a joy to listen to and he's so knowledgable!
I think my favorite parts are when Ben messes with the filming crew. More of that, please :D
I try :)
Ben Seidman is back! Yay! I'm a few hours late, but this was so awesome to see a part 2. Most these terms are review now, but this is still fun.
I’ve been waiting for the follow up video for so long! Yay!
I made it mostly just for you. Thank you for the support! And patience :)
2:37 The crazy thing about the Phil Ivey scandal was that he effectively told the casinos beforehand in his "what I want as a VIP" documents that he was gonna edge-sort, and exactly how he was gonna do it (asking for specific brand of deck, asking for a specific type of dealer, asking the dealer to flip the cards around at the table). And the casino just went along with it because he was gonna gamble tons of money and they were dumb and greedy (and VIPs ask for weird stuff all the time).
except he didn't - the reason he lost his court cases was because he explicitly said it was for "luck" and "superstition" when the casinos asked "why?" That moved it to fraud.
@@Chiberia The casinos still had the option on review to say "sorry, but we can't make that accommodation because it could potentially compromise game integrity", but they didn't.
Ivey 100% cheated, not arguing that, just saying that the casinos basically LET him cheat (because they expected to still make millions of dollars off his visit).
@@michaelsparks1571 Yeah, not to mention... The casino would have known about the defect beforehand. I mean, come on, these are billion dollar businesses that are up to date on every form of trickery and gadgetry designed to rip them off. The fact it didn't raise even the slightest suspicion to the heads of the casino in and of itself is more suspicious.
Ben is hilarious, super knowledgable and a very talented magician. I could watch hours and hours of this. Keep it up!
Really glad to see Ben on here again, he's a real talent and is a natural at this kind of content!
I absolutely love seeing Ben on this, I've watched the 1st video 4 times. What I love most are all the giggles behind camera!
YESSSSS THANK YOU FOR BRINGING HIM BACK!
What an amazing video featuring an amazing individual! 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼
Aww thank you so much brother!!
Wow Spidey! Great to see you here 😃
So happy to get a part two!!
Ben is just brilliant! Glad to see him back.
Aww THANK YOU!

@@TheComedyAndMagic Excellent! Now I can sneak off to a corner to recreate the Jonah Hill fangirl gif :)
D.) a career in the arts. 😂😂😂😂 THIS GUY IS HILLARIOUS!!!! Can’t wait for vid #3!!!

🙌🏼
YAAAS! Been waiting for this!
This guy rocks - why hadn't I heard of him before! I'll definitely be on the lookout for his content. Great attitude and talent and humor. Rock on Ben!
If they made 9 seasons of a Seinfeld like TV show using only this guy I'd 100% watch it.
What's the DEAL with Magic?!
THERES A PART TWOOOOOO TY VANITY FAIR ILY

Laughed out loud several times!! Love his delivery 😘👌🏻✨
FINALLY more!!
Ok if we could get parts 3, 4, 5 ...1000, I'd be down for that.
Daaaaamn~ That switch @6:47 is so cool :)
All the background in-room laughter totally made this video for me
i love this videos.
Please bring him back again! These are my favorite videos.
I want part 3,4 and 5, please. Love this guy!

Just watched the first part. This got recommend
Ugh yes we love him!

YES! I love this guy! He makes me love magic again
That's the best thing to hear
Few things make me as happy and enthralled as magic.
same
What a charismatic guy! I would definitely play cards with him, surely nothing could go wrong!
Juno is wonderful!
I want to know more about the ball trick! That was so cool
AND NO ONE RETURNS MY CALLS! Was a grest moment especially when a crew member laughed
I have rewatched the 1st video about 100 times and I wake up to see this!?!?!?!? YAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!
Amazing!
This guy is hilarious omg
Also, theres more to that particular ITYSL sketch, but I do understand using it to show how the trick would actually happen😊
This guy is just amazing.
Thank you!
Just as in his first video, Ben is so charming and funny -- someone give this guy a movie or TV show, ASAP!
More Ben Seidman please!
yayy they listened to how much we loved this!
I feel the same way!
Awesome job, Ben!!
thank you!
Ben is just simply the best
Bravo!!
ATTTTENNNNNCIIIIOOOONNEEE! PICK POCKETE!!!!!!!!!
🤣
Ben is no joke.
the loml
Thank you!
@@mainly_marvel aww shucks
The balls routine reminds me of Eugene Berger on TV spots
I love this guy; he is fantastic!
Yes Ben!!!!!!!
That coin to other card is amazing, I am baffled and I know a lot of tricks. ⁉🤔
he's back!!!
This guy's charisma is insane.
I guess I'm still in love with Ben Seidman
Phew, I thought I lost my edge
@@TheComedyAndMagic your sleight of hand game is so strong you've stolen my heart without me even noticing *wink*
I've only clocked one trick this whole time (thanks to discovering magic before discovering boys), and that one was so flippin smooth it only makes it more impressive.
Amazing, if you guys make a part 3 (i love Ben) its not a movie but you should totally check out a clip of "Rene Lavan" dude had one hand and performed the craziest magic tricks
This dude is hilarious 😂. Multiple pops out of me.
Wonderful Ben!
Thanks Greg!
Great videos
I watched that card coin trick five times, and still have no clue.
Yeah that was impressive
There is a second coin underneath the ace of hearts. It’s a gimmick table.
@@ColinWEvansit looks like the signatures are different. I think it might be two coins
it's magic
13:00 Love when magic is done to be fun and inclusive, not smug and self-righteous.
You are by far, my new favourite human being.
Let's hope he's not a zionist.
AMAZING
Gracias!
i can watch an hour of Ben
Dude's a beast
he's baaaaaack!
no cuz how tf did he do any of those tricks tho?
I have the same brown jacket, great taste! =)
Let's get a Part Three ;)
He's a wonderful guy to be around but I'll also be in constant anxiousness of having yet another of my article expertly pickpocketed without my knowledge making me hyper aware 😂
Magicians live in a world of their own
Ben is awesome :)
Yes
5:27 this incredible. The best example on this device I’ve ever seen.
Maybe we could build it into a pair of painters stilts so when you pick up the littler person, they become a bigger person. Hawkins would love that!!!!
Somehow this interview is a misleading truth.
10/10
Juno IS everything
I could not agree more.
What a fine magician.
i absolutely love this guy, he's the reason i got into magic, and now the reason i continue to win bets at 3 card montey
Amazing!
Nice Fred Perry shirt - into British mod music, Northern Soul ?
