    I've always liked magic shows especially live performances. Starting in 1969 my wife and I enjoyed seeing the live shows in Las Vegas especially when the shows could be watched close up. You give a table captain a gambling chip of sufficient value you would get ringside seats. We saw Penn & Teller, the Pendragons, and other important and up and coming magicians of that time. The only show we walked out on early was Seigfried & Roy. They kept reminding the audience to buy their overpriced, schlock souvenirs for sale in the lobby after the show. We did not pay a hefty price for a ticket to get advertisements. We enjoyed all the other performances. 😁

    1, David's (Copperfield) od the 'Laser Illusion' was impeccable. He is a master performer who like all geniuses, is not afraid to surround himself with others who, in ways, are as or more inventive than he alone. I book, produce and promote Illusion shows and have been working with the best, over the years. And David is deservedly, a legend! And a gentleman.

    I don't like how people hate on David Blaine. He single handedly made magic relevant again, and in a way that people could relate to at the time. On the street, with real, unsuspecting people, at the height of the reality TV craze. I didn't like his later, hiding in a box or freezing in ice spectacles, to be honest, but he did things we'd never seen before and made way for the hundreds of street magicians on UA-cam.

      @@mustang8206 eh, just a personal preference. I want to make this clear: I'm absolutely not saying that his courage and ability to push the human body far past what most had thought possible, wasn't incredible. It was! I'm talking specifically about television content. The long, televised events with the large timer at the corner of the screen while all we saw was him still sitting in the same spot, eyes closed, while some reporter told us how many hours and minutes it's been when we can already see the clock in real-time, just wasn't interesting television for me. The beginning and end portions were certainly interesting and extremely impressive! I hope I was able to clear that up for you! 🤗

    what are they talking about with trap doors and such. the tank was pushed against the wall. covering the front of the tank would allow the wall itself to be pulled up...allowing the girl to move into the front of the tank. which extends past the wall. when she is in the false wall drops back down. trick over.

    They made fun of David Copperfield a lot, but although he's cheesy, he was one of the first to truly turn a magic show into something more akin to theatre. He was one of the first to start adding theatrical story telling and drama into his pieces. The became more like performances pieces than magic tricks.

      Which is what most of these trucks are. Everything Dynamo does for example is faked with editing. He's not a real magician coz he can't perform to a real audience.

    OK..... here we go!!! For one... I literally have had this on my must see list for about 4 years. Today I finally had the time to watch this completely. Man... what an inspiration. I just finished Season 1 of my TV show in the USA called "Hip Hop Houdini" and I'm soooo happy I didn't see this before filming. Because for a fact I would've been influenced. Who knows, give me a few more years and I can make this list. Thanks for uploading this. Thanks!!!

    David Blaine is the best magician since Houdini. His tricks leave you dumbfounded in a way that no other magician does. He doesn't care about putting on some cheesy persona when he's on stage he just wants to blow your mind

    I used to be impressed by these shock street magicians, with their own filming and editing. Now it's the cheesiest thing on the planet to me. I also am not a fan of the huge stage productions with all kinds of obvious props. Close up sleight of hand is still amazing.

    • @LunchMeatTrump
      @LunchMeatTrump 2 роки тому

      I agree. Sleight of hand requires actual skill. The other people just use gadgets and props, or edit the video to only show what they want seen. Also a lot of street magicians like Blaine and Angel use plants and stooges, which is lame.

    Ok, the one crucial detail this program has left out is David Copperfield "Flying".
    "But, they included that one!" you may say. Indeed they did, but that is not the amazing part of his trick. Flying on the stage is mundane. No, what was truly amazing was right after his trick, they cut to a camera outside the venue. He comes out, thanks all for watching, then flies away like superman. And that seared into my brain like an internal tattoo.
