street magic

Postby Mikey.666 » Aug 9th, '06, 13:26



i've been browsing through street magic videos, various ones. and some of the tricks i see are amazing. and just by watching it they don't do any slieghts, none that i know of anyway.

for instance. one guy lets the spectator pick a card. the card goes back into the deck, he has a few guesses at the card which are wrong, and then he keeps coffing and spits out there card.

the david blaine can trick as well. i don't get that.

are these gimmicks?

Glad to hear you like the 'IMMENSE' book. It is pretty hard going but useful. :)

I've got that trick in a handout I was given by another magician, ithe document it's in is titled Easy Mentalism (not sure what that trick has to do with mentalism though), I can't remember the author but I'll have a look when I get home from work and post it.
