The number of magicians in the world is very small, and only one in 25000 people knows how to perform magic. You are about to become one of these rare people.
Brother V collected some of the best skills for you and explained how they were done. You can even learn some of them and surprise your friends and family.
1.Darcy oak’s pigeon illusion
In the British talent show series, the audience was shocked by the words of Canadian magician Darcy oak, who performed several magic tricks with pigeons. In one, the magician asked a pigeon to appear on the burning feather. How did he do it?
The feather that Darcy showed us before the flash was actually a special kind of paper called flash paper. They are usually used by magicians when they want to create a fast fire to hide the illusion moment of the audience. That’s what Darcy did – using the flame, he quickly took the pigeon out of a secret pocket in his sleeve.
2.Rising Card
In this magic trick, the magician asks the audience to randomly select any card from the card set and put it back. Then the magician makes some magical moves and the audience’s cards pop up. What is the secret of this illusion?
When the card is put back, the magician puts it in front of a card with a special mechanism – a small card, which is pasted on the card and moves up. This creates the illusion that it jumps out.
3.Cans on cards
A magician held a card and somehow made a card stand on it. This behavior seems impossible, but in fact, it is one of the simplest tricks that any beginner can do.
If you look closer from another angle, you will find that the card is actually T-shaped. You can easily glue two ordinary cards together at home so that they form a T-shape. This makes it easy to put the jar or bottle on the card.
4.Mobile phone in bottle
The famous street trick is this: the magician holds some plastic bottles or other containers in his hand. He showed everyone that it was an ordinary empty bottle and gave it to someone to prove it. Then the magician asked for someone’s cell phone. 1-2-3, the mobile phone magically passes through the wall of the bottle and ends inside.
How does it do that? There are several ways to do this, the most popular of which is magic equipment. The magician wears a special finger gear with a small sharp blade on it. After showing the audience that the bottle was complete, he secretly cut a wire large enough to push the phone through. There’s no magic here, really. Just a means.
5.Twist iPhone
The famous magician Dinamo performed this trick in front of people on the street, which shocked the audience. He took an iPhone from one of the viewers and magically rotated it in the middle, placing it in a half screen and half back state. How is this possible?
It’s actually very simple. The magician prepared a half cover of the iPhone and quickly put it on the screen while performing the technique. When dynamo showed his iPhone to the audience, he showed it from the back. Then, cover the device with both hands, then rotate the device completely, display the side of the screen on the screen, and cover the half cover on the screen. From the side, the phone looks distorted, but we assure you that no iPhone was hurt that day.
6.Jamie Raven’s lemon trick
Jamie raven, another talented magician from the British talent show, got a note signed by one of the judges Alesha in the final magic skills. From the show, he put the note into a intact lemon. How did he do it?
When Alesha signed the note, Jamie folded it up and showed it to the audience. When he folded the note, he held a piece of toilet paper in his hand, and he immediately turned around. Now, with a signed note in his hand, he took a bag from Alesha. With a note in his hand, he reached into the bag, filled it with lemons, took it out and showed it to the audience only one side. When Alesha took out the note, he quickly turned it off and put it up because there was a hole in the bottom of the lemon and he stuffed the note into it.
7.Turn water into ice in a second
A magician poured some liquid into a cup. After a while, it turned into a cube of ice.
The trick here is that the cup already contains a piece of ice and a sponge of the same color as the cup. The sponge is fixed to the bottom of the cup and absorbs the poured water. So when the magician turned the glass upside down, the ice fell into his hand and the water remained in the sponge.
8.Through the wall
There is a wall on the stage, which looks very realistic. The magician approached the wall from one side, and the assistant hid him with a special screen on the wheel. The identical structure is placed on the other side of the wall. The magician appeared on the other side of the wall a few seconds later.
Although it looks like Hogwarts’s magic, the performance is quite simple. There is a special V-shaped tunnel under the wall. That’s why the audience studying the wall and how solid it is didn’t find anything – the wall is good, but the floor is not. It only takes a fraction of a second for a magician to cross a small tunnel under the wall and stand on the other side.
9.David Copperfield’s death saw
David Copperfield is one of the most famous classic magicians of all time. One of his favorite skills is death. He splits himself in half with a huge saw blade.
In order to perform hallucinations, Copperfield used his assistant to do the back of his body. They seem to be just one person. The secret of this trick is the tiny gap between the table below and the table through which the saw blade can easily pass. Copperfield’s legs were bent onto the table, and the assistant’s upper body was hidden under the table.
