Your weekly dose of magic from around the world from BBM
Hey Owen,
We, at Bigblindmedia, aim not only to teach you cool card tricks, but also to show you cool magic-related stuff from around the world! And, every Friday, we do just that!
Videos, comic-books and more - lets get it started!
📚 1. Maurice Fogel
I recently stumbled upon a video of magician Maurice Fogel.
Fogel is a famous mentalist known for some of his over-the-top illusions (such as making nude ghosts appear on stage, or having a firing squad shoot at him on live TV).
What I loved about this video was just how happy he looked performing.
If you had the opportunity to show football legend Messi a card trick, what would you show him? I'd show him "Wormhole" by Ali Nouira. What's better than a signed card to pocket?
Well, Julius Dean showed him a card trick and I might say his trick choice is rather... questionable.
" An old trick well done is far better than a new trick with no effect."
- Harry Houdini
Hope you guys enjoyed this week's goodies. We've got some more goodies prepared for you in the following weeks, so stay tuned!
xoxo

Perfect Shuffle by Biz - Exclusive Download - gb
This utility move is a full deck, multiphase, super convincing FALSE SHUFFLE. Despite a massive amount of mixing and cutting, not a single card moves. It's easy to do. It's modular (do a quick mix or a super involved 'messing up' of the cards). You can do it in the hands or on the table. You can even use it to displace one or more cards from the top to the bottom!
