Yep, very sad news. 13 Steps - best "magic" book ever. Not magic of course but mentalism, but you know what I mean.

Oh no. That's sad news indeed. Does anyone know if there's a call for donations to a hospital or anything. I feel like giving something.

Martin at International was very friendly with him, especially this year. He'll be the one to call, as Dale says.

Sad news. I just written few words on magi cafe and I came here to see if the information was given.
Rest in peace Mr Corinda.

It is indeed very sad to see the man pass away, his ideas and inspirations however will live on for God knows how many years, I doubt even Mr Corinda himself could have predicted the impact that he would have on the Magic world with his book, my thoughts are with his family and friends at this time.

his spirit will live on with his words he has written and his works will live on in every magician and mentalist from all across the world and he will continue to live on just like the other greats such as vernon, kaps, lesley and many others

Another great has passed on, but his lessons will be engraved here as long as mentalism remains an art.

Oh my - I've not been on the web all weekend because, ironically enough, I've been practicing my mentalism set for a competition tomorrow...

I might need to change a few things in the set to pay my respects - after all, without 13 Steps, I wouldn't be partaking in the competition anyway!

RIP
