Legendary Las Vegas illusionist David Copperfield takes us behind the scenes & gives us a glimpse backstage at some of his escapes, mentalism & magic that he has performed live on tour around the world in his live shows such as "An Intimate Evening of Grand Illusion", his broadway show "Dreams & Nightmares", & on his many CBS TV specials.
In this video, David reveals all behind one of his best card tricks, "Grandpa", where he makes the four aces appear and disappear under impossible conditions that was taught to him by his grandfather. This card trick inspired by Alain Choquette's Four Ace Card Trick, also known as "A Dream of Aces", was featured on "The Magic of David Copperfield XVI: Unexplained Forces, &" 15 Years of Magic", which includes "The Best of David Copperfield" where he is interviewed by Claudia Schiffer at his secret warehouse, & later released on his DVD "Illusion", which also features a compilation of all of his most famous illusions, such as The Learjet Vanish, The Death Saw, Fires of Passion, The Statue of Liberty Disappears & more.
David Copperfield is the greatest & most famous illusionist of all time, who from his very early shows on & even now has consistently amazed the world with his magic. Witness the magic of the man who made a seven ton learjet airplane vanish, made the Statue of Liberty Disappear, floated over the Grand Canyon, walked through The Great Wall of China, escaped from Alcatraz, confronted the mystery of The Bermuda Triangle, escaped from an imploding building, escaped from Niagara Falls, has sawed HIMSELF in half as opposed to the traditional "Sawing A Woman In Half" in the infamous "Death Saw", made an Orient Express train car disappear, conquered human flight by floating above audience members without the aid of wings, strings, or camera tricks in his most famous levitation illusion called "Flying" that is considered his "greatest illusion of all time", escaped from a straitjacket ten stories in the air, survived being inside of a "Tornado of Fire", & in his live shows, has filled thousands of theaters with snow, made thousands disappear in his equally famous "Thirteen" illusion, & his most famous illusion, "Portal", in the ultimate teleportation, where he transports himself & a lady from the audience from the stage, to a beach on Hawaii on an island in the middle of nowhere, yet still continues to make his mark in pop culture with his many tv & movie appearances, with tv shows such as "Late Night With David Letterman", "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno", "The Arsenio Hall Show, "Oprah", & most recently "America's Got Talent", & movie cameos on "Terror Train" with Jamie Lee Curtis, & "The Incredible Burt Wonderstone" with Steve Carel, as well as continuing to evolve his magic by the constant creation of new illusions.
David can be seen live & up close year round at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas in his very own "David Copperfield Theater", formerly knows as Hollywood Theater, in his latest new show "Live The Impossible", which is sure to capture the imaginations of children as well as adults, by first materializing on stage out of no where on his Harley, known as "The Motorcycle Shadow Box", & later introduces us to his childhood toy dinosaur that he calls "Frank", & to a little blue magical alien named "Atilla". He also performs classics such as "The Squeeze Box", also known as "The Shrink Box", living his grandfather's dream of predicting & winning the lottery & making his dream car appear, & some funny magic with his magical partner, Webster The Duck, in a kid favorite called "Slo Mo Duck", which is one that totally goes "over the head", & is one that leaves you wanting him to "do it again", which he in fact does, but again in slow motion, where all will be revealed, & a classic close up piece that had been a staple of his show for years, where he transforms a simple piece of paper into a paper rose, than into a REAL rose in "The Floating Rose". By using a mixture of music, storytelling, romance, lighting & choreography, close-up magic AND grand illusion, Copperfield creates the ultimate live theater experience for his fans, leaving them feeling full of wonder.
To this day people ask "How did he make the Statue of Liberty disappear?", along with many other illusions that even The Masked Magician has yet to figure out the secrets to & expose on tv. Through his many CBS TV specials, & world tours in his live show, he continues to amaze the world. So sit back, relax, & enjoy his magic & escapes, right in your own home right here on The David Copperfield Channel.
Also, if you are a fan, you MUST see his live show at least once, so be sure to get tickets on your next Las Vegas vacation & witness, the one, the only, "The Magic of David Copperfield"
still my favorite card trick of all time. I refuse to look at the tutorial videos, because I respect this trick so much.
This is the best effect ever. His performance is what makes it so special...I’ve seen many magicians perform this effect and I know the method but watching his performance makes it as close to real magic as is possible.
I'd have to say this trick is my favorite card effect. David is the master at taking a classic illusion and adding an amazing and theatrical story.
The greatest card trick of all time! you are a master showman! You have the most brilliant creative consultants also and it's great you give them credit. We all stand on the shoulders of giants!! 👍🎩
From a magicians POV.. each illusion is perfect in every sense. i wonder how many rehearsals he has done.. DC is a perfectionist..
well david copperfield is the epitome of magic. I was in my teens when i saw that and he put a spell on me. Amazing actor story teller showman entertainer. The greatest magician of his era. I still cant do the herman pass like he did.. salute of DC
I went to your live show in Toronto a long time ago and I believe this trick was performed there, too. Either way, this particular performance is burned into my mind not only because of its execution but because of your choice of soundtrack. I've never seen Cousins and probably never will, so as far as I am concerned, that song was written for this performance and I will always remember being completely blown away by it.
Three aces under the Ace of Spades.... BOOM!!!
I've watched this for over 20 years, and still have no clue as to that set-up!!!
The best... THE VERY BEST!!!
I am affectionate of Devid Copperfield because of his clam and quietness performance with a smile
This is probably better than every single thing Shin Lim has ever done!
Such a nice trick and the story that goes along with it, l]just like all his illusions plays a huge role in selling it, not to mention the choice of music which masterfully cues perfectly along with the moves.
Is this commentary on the DVD? I never knew it came with commentary.
I can listen to his voice for hours
What's your favorite David Copperfield card trick?
i like this four aces trick also. but in Daortiz version - ua-cam.com/video/w2liwaRtHgk/v-deo.html
THIS ONE. Forever.
I don't know why it makes me tear up every time. Ever since I saw it as a young child. It is one of the most gorgeous, patient, and loving renditions of a card trick I have ever seen in my life. It is magic defined, distilled, and perfected.
I think the best David Copperfield truck ever is the death saw flying snow the grandfathers four aces portal the laser the floating Rose. Really great magician I'm also a huge fan of John Pendragon
1:25 How was the hair blown ever slightly done? A fan? Maybe I'm silly, but it's pretty incredible shot..
fantastic !!
It's not just a rumour. David's performances are perfectly calculated and have no room for error. I can't talk about every show in which he has done this routine where maybe they change how he does this, but, In the performances that aired on TV, it's just obvious that the trick is pre-recorded. The camera motion is obviously designed to hide the fact that somebody else loads the aces behind the ace of spades. This is completely noticeable if you compare the position where he leaves the ace of spaces, and where it is after the camera followed his hands to show the last disapearance.
Now, this doesn't mean this trick can't be done. Of course it can be done, but just not as clean and neat as it's shown in the performance.
I don't know what method he uses in the video, and I don't really care if he uses a pre-recording or not, but the load can be done live just as cleanly. Actually, it could conceivably look even cleaner. There is no need to have someone else load the cards. I won't mention details here but feel free to send a private message and we can talk outside of the public eye.
i think david place his ace of spades very carefully in this video , the explanation make sense, but i dont think he did that in this video.
You are far off. Never underestimate the power of pure sleight of hand and years of practice.
Does anyone have know the back ground music that starts at about 1:45, and really swells around 2:50?
It’s the love theme from the movie “cousins”
@@michaelserebreny454 Thanks a bunch! I figured someone would recognize it eventually.
What song is used for the opening beat?
Enigma- Carly's song
