There's a reason he makes his living exposing effects rather than performing them...

Masked magicican or not. I still think it's horrible to watch...

Jeez... That was awful. It made me cringe so bad I could hardly watch it.

LOL! I enjoyed watching him try to get out of it. Seeing her face like 'I'm not buying it' look.

He messed up on a baby trick too! That was classic.

Thanks for sharing.

Yeah I think it was Valentino, you can tell because of his annoying nasal sounding voice.

This is an old clip .. but, very entertaining. This guy can't act his way out of a paper bag.

Ouch! I see what she did there. He should've been more observant, especially after the first time she did it. THIS is why you ask for volunteers, so you get people who WANT to follow directions.

I can't really blame the guy for exposing secrets, though. For one thing, it's what got me interested in magic, and for another, it forces people to come up with newer and better illusions.

Besides, if a trick is good, it doesn't matter if people know the secret. To whit, I've seen some truly beautiful linking ring routines, and everyone knows how those work.

She screwed with the trick. Sometimes, she only put two at the bottom of the deck, and at least once, she transferred a card to a different pile. He should've been watching her hands, not the camera.

Ummmmmmmmmm... Not cool. That was Val's excuse. It's great that you're interested in magic but that's a terrible way to start- are we to think that you got interested by a guy who did nothing but make a mockery of magic, and that because you're now a magician, you've done a 180 and are totally against exposure? Really, I'm not trying to attack you but there is no room here for support of magic exposure.

This guy is a joke seriously... he cannot perform so he doesn't want anyone else performing either

and revealing the secrets is terrible...it doesn't make us come up with other things. it just gives people more of an urge to yell out how things are done or to quit going to shows because they seen that on "the masked magician"

She did nothing wrong, and did exactly what he told her to do. He gave her the wrong instructions. She transferred the correct number of cards (3) to the bottom each time, but he only asked her to transfer the next card to the next stack. If you understand the initial set up, you'll understand the series of moves needed.

Yikes! We might not like him, but how many of us have been in that same situation at least once in our lives?

His mask gives new meaning to "never let 'em see you sweat"!
I lost the place of a chosen card once, and knew it immediately, and went ahead anyway... what a disaster!
