David Copperfield making an elephant or an airplane disappear is pretty spectacular, but I really like the up close simple stuff.
Mind you the dismembered body part tricks are pretty awesome too. Stumbled onto this video that recalled the old days when Doug Henning did this torn newspaper trick. Basically one tears it up into strips and then miraculously unravels the bunch to reveal a fully intact newspaper. I even had this trick done in front of me at a wedding. I'm sure it's slight of hand but, it bugs the hell out of me. And because of the magicians code, it's remained a secret. Googled it, YouTube, nothing. Anyone? |

Lennart Green, Card Magic. 30 minutes long, watch the whole thing, the tricks range from average/mediocre to completely brilliant, but what makes them(as with all magic) is the performance. His style is wonderful. |

Derren Brown. (Although more of a mentalist than a 'magician').
Does the seemingly impossible. Then explains how he did it. |

I met him a few years back and got a private tour of his "secret" warehouse. Pretty impressive shit. He's a really nice guy, and really into "real" magic. His private collection of magic memorabilia is the most astounding thing I've ever seen.
So it goes. |

Well that's cool. At least we know that, unlike Chrissy Angel -douchebag extraordinaire- DC is a cool guy. I hope this Angel guy to drops dead ASAP of a drug overdose or something. He is a scourge. A festering welt on the ass of humanity.
