Oh man, I´ve been setting this up for hour now. It´s already past six o'clock in the
evening. What? How am I supposed to get this done today? Looks good! Everything looks good.
Here we go, oh man, I am such a sexy man, I can´t believe, how sex I am… Hey there
everybody, my name is Othmarius, welcome to my channel, which is dedicated to close-up
and parlor card magic. Guys, welcome to a new series I am starting right now. And I
know, it´s crazy!´Cause right now on my channel. I am just opening new series. New
series of sleight of hand, new series of tutorials, new series of this! I will never be able to
follow the schedule, but you know sometimes you need to push yourself, you need to get
out of your comfort zone and you just got to start recording things, doing things! What
is this all about? This series is going to be a series, where I want to talk about magic
related subjects. And I want to call it: Talking Magic. And I want to have a Jingle, how do
you say, not a trailer, how do you say this? This thing, everybody does at the beginning!
And it is going to be something like… (sings Talking Magic) Welcome to a new episode of
Talking Magic, sings shitty Jingle: Talking Magic with Othmari-u-us. Or something, you
know, some Jingle! And I have zero time, doing this! So O am just doing this right now without
the Jingle, but if you guys have the time, if you have the resources, if you are doing
something like this, you could totally help me out, creating that kind of intro for this
series. If you have the time, if you wanna do it and you do it, let me know about it!
And I will definitely use the Jingle you came up with at least in one of these videos, I
am doing here right now! Go nuts, go crazy, if you have the time!? If you want to contribute
to this channel in this behalf just rock´n´roll! So what is this going to be about? It´s going
to be talking about magic related subjects. You know, whether you are a hobbyist, a semi
professional or a bad ass professional performing magic on a daily bases for money, baby, money
baby, you know!? It´s still, you know, at the end of the road the same thing. Because
magic is an art form and it comes with a lot of challenges. Doesn´t it? So whether you
are at the stage, where you´re trying to or you´re working on becoming a magician,
or if you´re trying to become a better magician. It does not matter! There are all these things,
you know, on the road, on the royal road to magic, to card magic, you know, that are challenging,
that are difficult or exciting or whatever and I wanna talk about these. I wanna share
my insight, my takes on some subjects for example like practicing, what makes a card
trick a good trick?, whatever, in this series… However this first episode is also an introduction
of a smaller series, I want to start the whole thing with, and this shall introduce you guys
to five vital ingredients for performing great magic. That´s right! So there are going to
be next to this introduction five videos. Each video is going to feature one of these
ingredients. And I want to do this by talking a close look at a very beautiful performance
of magic, David Blaine did at the end of 2016. Remember that shitty year, last year? Anyways,
David Blaine would perform a beautiful routine on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon (Kimbel???)
freaking everybody out. And this performances was uploaded Nov 2016 on the Tonight´s Show
youtube channel saying in the description box, let me read this: "David Blaine performs
several simple card tricks with Jimmy and members of The Roots before freaking everyone
out with an illusion no one expects." And that´s true, I am so glad, I did not know
anything about it, when I watched it, because I was so mind blown. It was crazy, however:
"performing simple card tricks"before blowing everybody's minds, is kind of an understatement.
Because, you know, it´s not really simple, what David Blaine does. Even if the tricks
are not loaded with heavy sleight of hand, although they kind of were, but I gonna talk
about this in detail in the episodes of this series. The frog thing he did at the end was
something incredible! Something that made me laugh out loud and enjoy magic like a toddler.
Did he really perform all this card trick beforehand having a frog in his mouth? And
did he really than, at the end swallow the frog alive before he left? I don´t really
wanna know, you know, I don´t really wanna know, because if he actually swallowed the
frog at the end, he´s a monster! Ja, he i a monster out of a sci-fi movie, guys! What
evil predator, you know, what monstrous predator swallows an animal alive to digest it living?
I mean, who does that? Who does that? Seriously? There is this sci-fi movie, I don´t know,
I got to google this… With some kind of mutated octopus, a giant octopus, you know,
takes over a crusade ship and eats everybody there. With it´s tentacle arms it digests
the people alive. And if David Blaine actually swallowed that frog, I don't wanna know, because
he is than that kind of a monster… Anyways! Does not matter! DOES NOT MATTER! Do not expect
me to simply reveal some of the tricks David Blaine performs. I don´t see any point in
it! Because, guys you know, there is a huge difference, like a real gap, it´s something
different. Knowing the secret of a trick and actually knowing, how to do it, how to perform
it. Here is the deal, here is my deal. I believe the most of us know already too many tricks.
Too many tricks! You and I, we got to many tricks in our bag. Because you don´t need
100 tricks, that you could do theoretically, if you never perform them. You just need a
view tricks, a handful of tricks that fall nice in place in your hands. And then you
nail those tricks, you turn them from just being card tricks into beautiful feats of
magic. YOu turn a trick into magic! That´s the deal! That´s what I am in for! I am in
for mastering the art of magic. And this series is all about sharing my learning process with
you guys, hopefully adding some value to the very vital community of card magicians and
magicians for, all over the world meeting here on youtube. Which is really, really great!
I like it! No cheap reveals! No cheap reveals on OTHMARIUS MAGIC! However I will deliver
on this click bait title of this video! I will deliver, and you know what, I believe,
I will even deliver more than many others, who used this click bait title. Because whenever
you read: Real secret of magic revealed!, you usually get this spiritual demon bullshit
crap "R E V E A L" You know?! The magician, Dynamo & David Blaine,
they sacrifice babies, toddlers in the night to worship satan, to become powerful, to BLA
bullshit! Chris Ramsay just talked about it and it´s really, oh nuts, it´s really nuts,
when you think about it, how crazy this is. No, no, no this is talking about magic as
a performing art, as the performing art of staging tricks and illusions. And as such
it is a wide field. And as such it has a long history. And it is something beautiful to
participate in. Now are you ready for the secret? For the really secret! For the real
secret! For the very real secret of the magic of David Blaine? Are you ready? Are you ready?
Are you ready? Guys, you are not gonna like it! Probably some of you are not gonna like
it! Not gonna like it! No, no way, because it´s just to easy! It´s like with all secrets.
As soon as somebody points it out, you are like, yeah shit of course! That´s… yes,
that´s… yeah, makes totally sense, it´s…, what´s the secret about it? But before that,
you know, it´s kind of a mystery and there is a lot of false information, you know? Anyways
here is the secret! Here we go! The secret to David Blaine´s magic: David Blaine is
devoted to the art form. There you go. There you have it! David Blaine is true to the performing
art of staging tricks and illusions. There is something more to it! It´s that there
are elements, the way they blend together, the way they create a synergy, what makes
great magic. And David Blaine´s performances and especially this performance is a great
example. David Blaine´s magic is such a great example for what I try to point out in this
series. Especially the performance, we gonna take a close look at. He manages to balance
all these ingredients, that I believe are the key to great magic, in such a beautiful
way. It´s a synergy effect, that he creates, that makes his magic so strong. What are the
five vital ingredients, that I have in mind? The five vital ingredients for grate magic!
We have reputation. We have boldness. There is simplicity. As well as structure. As well
as timing. Let me repeat this for you guys. Reputation. We are talking about boldness.
We are talking about simplicity. Er are talking about structure. And we are tailing about
timing. These are the five vital ingredients, that make magic worth watching. But it´s
not only the ingredients, its´the blend together of these ingredients. I believe, the key to
making a difference with you magic performances lies in the interplay, the interaction, the
synergy of these ingredients. So the secret to David Blaine´s magic lies not so much
in the secrets of the tricks. And it lies not so much in the method, that he uses. I
mean, cross your hearts guys, everybody is talking about the method at the end of the
day. Everybody knows, that there must be some kind of a trick. And it´s like a legend that
it took him years to create a hole in his hand, or whatever people are talking about.
It´s not the method. It´s not the secret of the tricks, that make his magic so strong.
It´s the balance between these ingredients. That´s my theses, I gonna discuss in this
series, and I hope you guys are in for it. It´s gonna be a lot of fun, I hope so at
least, I try to edit it nice and crisp. Yes, and I do this, because David Blaine rocked
me with his performance, with the tricks, the card trick he performed, the way he performed
them, and you know, coming up with this kicker ending swallowing the frog. Swallowing the
fu++++ frog, was just too much for me. And you know, what they say, to much of anything,
is too much for me. You know what! If you are in for it! If you are excited! If you
want to know, what Othmarius has to say about the performance of David Blaine at the Tonight
Show with Jimmy Fallon (not Kimmel sigh…) Thumbs up! That´s how easy it is! And as
soon as the video is available, just click the first episode, where I will talk about
the first major ingredient for performing great magic. That´s reputation. And if you
want to have it easy to follow, just watch the performance of David Blaine beforehand.
Trust me, you can not watch this often enough. It´s so rich, it´s so rich. It´s so beautiful!
Thank you so much for tuning in. Thank you for watching, liking, sharing my stuff. And
I really like to welcome you as a new subscriber to my channel, if you just tuned in, because
of, you know, the click bait tittle and now you watched this video and you are kind of
confused. WTF was that? I wanted to hear something about demons or real magic or stuff! No, no,
no this is the real deal! This is a real magician, card magician talking from the inside of studying
the art of performing tricks and illusions with just a ordinary deck of cards. And what
David Blaine does is kind of the top notch. This is just hardly to be done better. And
that´s what we gonna talk about in this series! Thank you so much guys! Be sure, more magical
stuff is going to be uploaded very soon! I got this shit with the three cameras going
on. I don´t know, what I gonna do with this! Was fun to do, I am done, I recorded the first
episode! Yipydiyeah!
