      Cant. Agt is only a 90 second audition. He would need to do a condensed version of it but i dont see that being possible because not only the length of the act but also the speed.

    As you can see, if you watch 4:26 at 0.25 speed, you'll see that he actually spawns the cards from the void into his other and and deletes them from his right hand instead of transferring them via wormhole, which was the other acceptable choice. You can see him actively using the spawn and destroy commands. Idk how he got access to cheats, but I want these commands too.

      I remember reading an explanation that the cards are trick cards with foldable sides to make it look like a full deck when its only 1. The deck to me feels noticeably smaller after he pulls them out of the box.

      @@taryth. yea it looks like there is a little flap on the single card in his right hand that folds out to look like a full deck. Still, the execution is phenomenal and I'm still not sure how the entire effect works. But I'm almost positive the fold out piece is how he does that part of it

      I would say with the years I have a fairly good eye and for the best tricks after a few rewatch can see the moves, but this very one is the only one where there is a part I've no clue how he does it, which makes me consider him as the god of magic.

I have an idea as to how some of the stuff is done based on some of the stuff that I have caught, which may be what Penn references to when he talks to Shin Lim about his performance, but the performance still blows me away even now. And even with the stuff that I have seen, as Penn himself said, I still have no idea how in the world Shin Lim vanished the marker, especially the second time he did it. He is truly one of the best magicians in the world right now, and I hope he does well on AGT this year!

      Man was good, no doubt. But after looking at the video frame-by-frame in SVP, the marker went into his red vest. It happens right after he moves his right hand up to his left hand, then quickly pulls it back. In that instance, he dips it into his vest where it is likely lined as a giant pocket (so to speak). Then pulls out a separate marker from his pocket shortly after.

      I think he places it on the back of his right hand. Notice how he keeps his palm straight moving it back down towards his pockets. At the "vanishing point", the motion seems to point to the marker going over the top of his fingers on his right hand and falling right on the back. Maybe one side of the marker is sticky or something. Whatever it is, that's crazy timing and dexterity.

His show was absolutely beautiful, it blew my mind. Flawless performance, no words spoken but his presence was deafening, that's how good he was.
    He was a very humble, polite and chill dude. First thing I said to him was how amazing his performance was, and he put his head down like a bow, put his hands together and shyly said thank you. I shook his hand and told him to never shy away from how brilliant what you do is.

    I do not believe I have seen card work done this beautifully...ever. I worked for two different illusionists as an assistant in my younger years, and still don’t know how they did some of their tricks. This man has a unique style, and a stage presence that commands attention without being brash. His introduction of smoke in such lovely subtle ways added more mystery to an already staggering routine. He deserves all the success the future will bring. Flawless ness does not come by whim...but by great dedication and work. He has clearly been paying his dues. Respect.🖤🇨🇦

    Unlike other acts I saw on this show, this one doesn't have to be 'figured out'. This was 'magic' in its simplest form, and watching him perform was a great treat! The no-speaking part just added to the beauty of the act, very well done sir, can watch this for hours!

    An amazing display magic, an alluring stage presence. Funny thing is, the marker sleight of hand tricks seemed to me the most obvious (and they were still killer).

    • @nicokilborncar
      @nicokilborncar 8 лет назад +9

      +Raymond Chin I think I have figured out he vanishes the second marker. if I am right then the trick won't work if he faced the camera: First he attaches the marker to the back of his right hand (with his fingers bent inwards), when he moves his hands apart he opens his hand so that the marker is hidden by his fingers, finally he moves his right hand below the table to remove the marker.

    • @nicokilborncar
      @nicokilborncar 8 лет назад

      Completely set up.

      @Diogenes2077 8 лет назад

      Now those guys are in an extremely difficult position. Because there are certain standards that most individual tricks are varriations of. An experienced pro will know all the standards and also the usual ways of making them into new tricks.
      So the pro will know a trick even if they don't see it. But as magicans they know also that this is wrong, that you can't know without seeing for with magic you cannot even know with seeing.
      This act consisted of many standards I guess from the reaction at 9:15. BUT!
      So yeah he did not fool them in any detail, but the overall effect was something they felt they could not easily explain or reproduce.
      I am sure as hell the marker was a standard well known and easily recognized by pros, so it was probably respect for the show, not for the single tricks.
      Still does not mean he did not fool them at all.
