Do yourself a favor...watch this!
Actually, do yourself a huge favor and record it! I have been lucky enough to see this several times now, and you will want to show your friends. Watch the entire show, as a number of bumpers and callbacks occur throughout. |

Thanks for the information. I knew that Eric was going to be on, and I saw this performed at MagicLive (WONDERFUL!!!), but I will make sure to watch the full show.

I thought the director screwed this up. Too many medium shots when the whole thing should have been shot wide so we could actually see the snakes flying through the air the whole time.

I watched this, and personally I thought it was just a gag. There was nothing magical about what he did.
All that was done was load a bunch of spring snakes in cans and choreograph the whole routine to music. Then just pull the releases and viola! you get 100's of snakes going off in any which way.
Magic is a vanishing art.

I enjoyed it, thoguth it was very well thoguht-out and entertaining. Plus, it's not every day you see hundreds upon hundreds of spring snakes shot around in such a visually pleasing manner.

It is an excellent, colorful and funny piece that fills a big stage. Eric will be making money with this for a long time. Not everything we do has to be magic.

I thought the director butchered the piece. Too tight a shot. He could have done a frame in frame or something if he felt the need to go in close. I also wish Letterman did not have to be such a jerk about guests. Johnny Carson or Leno never treated act this way.
I agree that Eric will make money with this for a lot of years. I just hope no one rips him off. But then again most magicians are too lazy to even to a silk act yet alone reset all those snakes. Way to go Eric!!!!! Richard

I saw the preformence of this on the french TV show le plus grand Cabaret du monde and thought it was briliant. So funny. Eric also preformed his act as a singer with the floating mic ala zombie also a great act.
Does any one know if Eric stil does his dove act?
