It takes great skill and discipline to be a successful magician. I respect them.
Indeed. I also like to know how the magic trick is done, there was a guy wearing a mask who was exposing all of the secrets. I hear other magicians where out for blood,  :LOL:

Yeah I knew someone who wanted to kill that dude, actually. :LOL:

I really did love watching that exposing all of magic's  secrets. some of it is really some hard work to make look believable. you wouldn't imagine the quickness of it all behind the scenes especially if they are using a large box or something

Love them.

When I was a kid I wanted a magic wand that would make people disappear, it was rather disappointing to find out it really didn't work the way I thought it did. :LOL:

Richard, you might be interested in watching Now You See Me.  I believe it's now on DVD.  About magicians, crime and...........  Well, it was a very entertaining movie that showed the tricks behind the magic tricks.  I'm usually pretty good at guessing plot twists, but not this one.
