Paul Harris is one of the magicians who 1st caught my eye when I was opened to the World Of Magic. This was back in the 80s when I was doing backstage work with Harry Blackstone and hanging at the Magic Castle.
I never got good at performing, but I still get the urge to pick up a deck of cards occasionally.
Usually, to practice on one of Paul's tricks! 😊
Paul Harris changed my life.. when i was just starting into magic i was doing the basics, the classics.. then I saw an old video of Steve Haynes Casanova concept (as performed by Dave Forrest I believe).. thne I learnt it was taught in true astonishments.. so i got that box set and everything in there blew my freaking mind. I wasn't really into cards.. it got me into cards and it got me thinking creatively.. then I got art of astonishment. Paul Harris through his creations and his theories taught me how to create magic. He expanded my mind on just what is possible with just a little creativity. His essays made me re-examine my relationship with a spectator and why I do magic. There are 3 fundamental people who made my magic and my magic style what it is: Paul Harris and Penn and Teller. I don't know how else to put it really. Paul Harris truly changed my life. God Bless Paul Harris.
Wonderful! I totally feel you man, Paul Harris is my Spirit Animal. Long live the church of Astonishment!
excellent Paul Harris 5x5 look forward to more
Incredible magic. I need to learn more Paul Harris routines.
Thank you for this Craig! Newer magicians need to learn about PH! Regarding the book series “ The Art of Astonishment” I have a personal project, filming all the tricks from the books, as sort of a video library for people reading the books.
I have done over 120 videos already, I might not be the best performer but readers can see the effects. I would love to know what you think!
I'd love to check those out, are they uploaded somewhere? UA-cam?
@@MrMcMaN yes there is a playlist there!
Paul is the best and my favorite forever
Paul Harris magic changed my approach to doing close up magic. It was so weird and cool when I first saw it back in the late 70's. I still do Naked Strange, Las Vegas Leaper and Vacuum Cleaner Cards all the time.
Return of the Bizarre Shrink is one of the most underrated effects in not just the AOA books but all of card magic. It is direct, visual and in the spectators hand.
I have performed all of this routines, great selection, bizarre twist is a workhorse, I do the move one handed though. One trick that needs to be mentioned is “ leaf” IMO one of the most poetic an beautiful routines in magic.
I hope to god that he could release another 3 AOA books with everything he worked on after the first 3 volumes.
So much of my performing material comes from his books and True astonishments and its absolute GOLD!
Maybe he will one day although he seems to have vanished off the face of the planet at the moment.
There are two new PH books being written right now :)
@@IanKendallMagic Any info when they'll be released?
@@SaavMagician They are being written at the moment.
He was David Blaine's mentor & a goat/legend ty for covering this
Love these 5x5s
Glad you like them Charlie.
Brilliant Craig. Love Paul Harris. Micky Mouse math is superb. First saw impromptu nightshades performed by Pete Firman also and it blew my mind. The Art of Astonishment books are just amazing.
Nightshades is so unusual it blows peoples minds.
Another great show. The absolute best version of Twist is found in Resigned to Miracles which is a newish book everyone should own.
Paul's foil and coin trick is one of his best, i used to use it all the time and impromptu if you have some foil.
I've recently become an admirer of Paul Harris. I now do three coin routines; Twilight, Hi Ho Silver and Silver Slide along with his Monster Coin Routine. Mr. Harris' tricks are not too hard to do but yet reate a fantastic impact on audiences. I also do Bizarre Vanish but my all-time favorite is Super Swindle!
Try out PDQ#2 it is my go to coins across!
@@DaniMarko Thanks but I don't see it in my Harris video (Stars of Magic). How can I access it? I also follow your comments on Coin Magic Community. Thank you!
@@wondersofmagicandillusions4317 it is not there, it is in the AoA books. You can see a performance on my AoA project playlist. Also Craig did a performance on his channel!
The great things about Pauls books is there fun to read aswell as great magic.
It was these books like Stephen tucker books that made magic tricks different and fun.
I would love to see Paul Harris Solid Deception.
Sam, check out a performance on my Paul Harris playlist man!
I saw the performance Dani. Great stuff. Don’t know if I can top that. But I’ll give it a shot on the next 5x5.
@@magic-tv oh... you KNOW you can do it better man! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Brilliant 5×5 special on Paul Harris. I absolutely love that fizz master trick 🙌
Thanks Fizz Master is great!!
Another great video. I’ve been a magician since the early 80s and Paul Harris , Daryl and Michael Ammar were my three favorite magician teachers. I’m lucky enough to own his boxed set also. So many I tricks I love. I’d like to see you highlight overkill. A great trick Paul Harris teaches.
I spoke about it in detail on a Magic Stuff. I did a video on three self working tricks you haven’t seen before and I spotlighted overkill. Here’s the link.
ua-cam.com/video/9mRUvzbIxoY/v-deo.html
I do Harris' "Out of this World" variant "Galaxy" to this day. My favorite of it's kind ❤️
It really is an awesome trick.
Damn I’m looking forward to the next PH special!! So many gems already mentioned. Iv just sourced screwed deck. Been looking for ages everywhere sold out. Had no idea Palmer had the rights. Thanks Craig
Screwed Deck is brilliant. There will be another PH Special coming soon. I promise.
Hi. I’m an Australian amateur magician. Thanks for the video. I love PH work too, however the only PH book I have is AoA #1 which I must admit I haven’t fully explored. What other effects do you think are the strongest from this book and are must haves in a standing/roving routine? Can you suggest any other books or DVDs of his work?
I assume you know of The Jerx? I’ve only just come across his website/posts and his performance philosophy really resonates with me. To be honest I haven’t done much magic in years, but keen to get back on the horse doing a little impromptu magic for friends and family. Nothing too planned or showy.
Can you please recommend any other books, DVDs, or effects focused on everyday objects that would work well in casual settings and provide a strong experience? Also, are u aware of any effects that work well with Au currency? It’s really hard to make any effects work well with other countries bills I find.
If you have time to respond, please feel free to email me any recommendations or your thoughts at sitbon21@optusnet.com.au. Thanks Andrew
IHTBH the content you are putting out is amazing. Thank you for sharing all of your great knowledge. Many thanks
Reset, Las Vegas Leaper
Both great tricks.
Do a Ed Marlo 5x5 from his book the Cardician.
That’s actually a really good idea. Thank you.
@@magic-tv welcome
I can just imagine Craig getting an absolute bollocking for spraying fizz all over the family office LOL :) Great video mate.
Great video, made me realize I am missing volume 2 of AoA on my bookshelf. Also enjoyed watching bizarre twist as I remember not doing this as I felt I couldn't get the move to look perfect, trying to get everything aligned etc but watching it performed now I can see it doesn't to be..EDIT Just realised that reads as if I think you're doing it badly which is not what I meant, you use a larger action to cover the.smaller action and it all just flows. ok I'll be quiet now 😊
You are missing all the "connections"!
@@DaniMarko yes it will be added to my shelf soon
@@UncleSkiBum Check out OSMOSIS, it is one of the "forgoten" connections, and its great for closeup, not as hard as the classic immaculate connection.
😍
🙏🙏🙏
Another excellent, informative video Craig. I have to admit, I've never been a fan of Paul Harris, nor his style of Magic. Although creative, I just often perceived it contained too many brainfarts, rather than commercial (no reset) Real World workers. His material just reminded me of Jay Sankey - another Magician whose material, to the most part, left me cold. In the 80's and 90's, I got a lot more mileage (and commercial material) from Harry Lorayne's Best of Friends and Apocalypse to be honest. Apart from a few items, such as Solid Deception, I didn't find a lot of Paul's better material to be suited to non-reset walkaround; despite buying and studying (before reselling) AofA 1-3. I also believe AofA contains a lot of pointless waffle; not to mention enough blank space/pages to potentially have saved a Rainforest. Just my opinion mate.
Agree with this. He’s not my fave either. My BS detetector goes off the scale with him and Sankey.
Hey. That’s the good thing about magic. There are. So many options.
I do think he has a tendency to create a lot of pipe dreams and unworkable routines (a bit like Sankey) but there are so many good routines that fit my style he has created throughout the years that it’s worth studying. At least for me.
@@magic-tv You make such an important point there actually Craig- "they fit your style". It's a question that I've always pondered - whilst we should be performing what goes over well with our audiences, is it important to also select those tricks that we personally prefer AND believe fits our individual style; as (if we as performers like them) we'll present them with more passion/conviction? That's why I probably missed out on some PH material.....I didn't perceive it to fit my preferred type of performance.
Why’d my comment get deleted?
I’ve checked. Nobody has deleted any comments. Not the sort of thing I do. If someone annoys me I’d rather argue 🤣🤣🤣
He’s intimidated by you because you’re a world-famous magician, David.
From time to time, I think 'I don't like this channel. Craig is way too opinionated and he has opinions that I often disagree with.' But I'll be damned if you aren't the hardest working UA-camr in magic, and you've got a genuinely massive breadth of knowledge across a huge range of areas. Also, I love that you aren't trying to sell me some shit every episode, or repeatedly begging -- even if it's just for likes and subscriptions. If I have a serious criticism, it's about your interviews. Don't get me wrong -- I love the interviews, they're your best feature, but you either need to seriously edit them down, or get better about the questions you ask. I mean, I love Fay Presto as much as the next guy, but three and a half hours? Who has three and a half hours to listen to her ramble on. Figure out what bits are important and edit out the dross. I don't know whether the UA-cam stats tell you this but I'd be really interested in what proportion of people watch the long interviews all the way through.
Anyway, that's just my opinion -- take it or leave it, but by and large, youre doing a great job.
Thanks for the comment buddy. All I try to do is put the sort of content out that I would want to watch. I just hope other people like the same stuff as me.
As for the interviews the stats show pretty much everyone watched them all the way through. They are edited down as they start a lot longer! But I really appreciate the feedback.
