Oh yeah he is very good... in stage hes not that bad too... Oh and have you seen his ambitious card routine??? I love the presentation- how he "turns back time". And then he finishes with a brand new deck...beautiful...

I actually really like his rubber band routine as well, I'm not sure if youtube has taken it down yet, but he does a massive linking rubber band illusion that's absolutely superb, that and his lacoste routine where he produces an alligator at the end :D

Nothing to do with this clip, but you only think 'modern magicians' don't use a TT. You would be surprised. You would also be surprised how many you have probably seen using one and just didn't know it.
