Welcome back to Magic TV. It is a Monday and it's 9pm which means it's time for a 5 x 5.

One of mine is when magicians way overuse, "I'll just snap my fingers..."
Well, there goes my next project, 101 Ways to Show Your Hands Empty.
The super extra coin vanishes are definitely a peeve. It also irks me when they ask "was that fair?" 57 different times during a routine
"Finger gymnastics" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH 😂
Couldn't agree more 😂
I dislike excessive "summing up what just happened". Also repeatedly asking "is that fair?"
"And now, for my fifth trick I'll use this fifth deck which is very special because there are only 21 cards in this deck..."
lifting the back of the deck to get a break looks kinda bad, but what I really can't stand is people who pushes the top card a mile to the right with their thumb
🤌 snapping my fingers to make the magic happen. I hate it! But I can’t stop doing it
Damn. So much for showing you my new close up act featuring: Crazy man’s hand cuffs, perfect pass followed by 15 mins of shuffling with washing my hands after a coin vanish.
"Perfect!"
I guess the "21 cards trick project by Craig Petty" is not coming out any time soon ;)
hey, not all variations of the 21 card trick sucks, bill malone's one is amazing
Bill Malone must be the greatest magic performer of all time. I'm guessing he used his 21 card trick routine as a put down whenever anyone asked him if they could show him a trick. Thanks for the recommendation.
I hate excessive dealing as well. If you are not entertaining and you start dealing packs of cards, then I am already bored. Another big pet hate of mine is any magician that acts superior to everyone else because they can do tricks.
I hate it when a magi asks someone to do something simple, like turning over a card, and he says
"perfect" or "fantastic" or whatever, like the volunteer is 3 years old and needs excessive compliments and encouragement.
A good multi-deck trick is "Trojan Deck" by Joshua Jay.
A pet peeve of mine is if you are doing a vanish of a coin or any small object holding the hand that supposedly took the object so tightly there may not possibly be anything in that hand. Along with that is not dropping the hand that placed it does not drop but continues to be held almost as high up as the hand that will be doing the vanishing. For crips sake your done with that hand drop it no more attention on it.
100% with u!!
Hmm! Gregory Wilson doesn't drop his hand after placing (fake transfer) a coin in the other hand. It works great for him, especially if he is doing his Pitch & Ditch.
@@TheMagictom1 but he (almost) always shows bot hands doing the all around vanish
I can't disagree with any of this 😂
I'm sure that I have some annoying performing habits but certainly not these.
Lol!! Im with you on 21, or tricks of excessive dealing. Nothing makes me lose interest faster than a trick that is process-heavy where piles of cards must be dealt multiple times throughout the trick. Snooze time..lol
Is 'pet hate' the same as a 'pet peeve'?
People who do Up The Ladder Cuts from the side and don't do the circular motion!!
My biggest pet hate are the overuse of complicated flourishes particularly in card magic, I'm fine with cardistry as a separate art form, but if you are trying to present the idea that you have magical powers then you really ought to hold back on the flourishes, it's hard to get a person to suspend their disbelief if you've just done a knuckle busting 90 step rolodex, it no longer looks like a feat of magic but a display of dexterity cause after you've shown you can do all those fancy moves when you do your ACR your spectator is just going to think well you just did more of that didn't you.
100% agree. The next person to show me the 21 card trick will be the model for a voodoo doll
I think the 21 card trick gets too much hate. It's the first trick most people learn, it doesn't hurt to give someone a little bit of encouragement if they are just starting out.
I'd roll my eyes if it was at a magic convention or done at a magic circle meeting as I'd have higher expectations, but if it's just a layperson in a regular situation then I'll let them do their trick and show them how they can make small improvements to their presentation then hope that might spark an interest in that person to take a deeper dive into learning magic,
Nobody in magic does the 21 card trick for an audience, other than maybe their family. One thing I find annoying is magicians who say "Perfect!" multiple times while a volunteer is selecting or signing a card, or doing something the magician just told them to do.
I have two pet peeves.
One, the double undercut. If you don't use the double undercut to actually cut the cards, don't use the double undercut to control a card, and noone has ever in the history of cardboard used a double undercut to actually cut the cards (it's the internet, of course someone will have done it, but they shouldn't).
Two, showing a card, then putting it back on top of the deck without any justification before immediately putting it on a table or someones hand. Oh boy, look, it's a giant blinking neon sign saying "double lift".
In general, a lot of card tricks would benefit from running through it without any sleights. Like, if I don't need this card to go here specifically, does my handling still feel natural?
A good justification for returning a selected card to the top of the deck (setting up a double lift) is drying the Sharpie ink after the spectator signed their selected card. As seen in Craig's wonderful "Magic Button."
This was funny!!!.
I agree with a trick like 21. Actually I can't deal with a card trick that lasts more than a minute.
I think it's worse when the strolling magician brings out multiple packs of cards and they are not so subtly marked, 'stripper,' 'Svengali,' 'Mnemonica,' etc... he also set out two other non-card tricks in the row and proceeded to do all the effects in order... only saw this once, but once is enough. Oddly, the table of guests still seemed to enjoy the magic anyway.... (On the bright side, he didn't have an instruction sheet laid out on the table as well.)
Dani DaOrtiz's 21 card trick version is great, does it specifically to mock that everyone knows how the 21 card trick works and does the entire routine with a spectator pressing their fingers into his eyes and triumph shuffling the cards blind, purely because everyone knows the trick is awful. Also its Dani DaOrtiz so he can get away with doing almost anything through pure charisma and energy
The one thing I hate soooo much is "magic with subtitles"... I think it's objectively bad to do so. "I'll shuffle the cards", "Let me place the box over there", I'll do this, do that... just f'ing do it, we'll see it. Focus on script, not subtitles.
Another thing is doing an Acaan with the "Acaan script", like... "there's this holy grail in magic..." Oh stfu 😂
Great vid. My DL changed after watching Eddie McColl.
The counting cards is why I've never liked ACAAN.
Personally, I think as long as you say (and you did) that this is your opinion and people are free to disagree, then there's nothing wrong with talking about your pet hates. If someone gives you grief, it's their problem, not yours. I'm enjoying this (beats working, which is what I'm avoiding here).
What about Jack Parker’s Sunken 21 in 52 Memories - admittedly he only deals once so it is considerably better
I hate the phrase “And just like that…”
“And just like that…your card rises to the top”
😣
I am guilty of this and use the phrase "this may not work" 😊
I teach the 21 card trick to kids because they want me to teach them a trick and I hate that trick too! And you are right every old person knows that trick and wants to show it to me too and yes they ask if I know how they did it! So funny! As for the double lift using the thumb I have no feeling in my hand except the thumbs so it’s difficult to flip it from the side with my fingers. You are funny about the 21 card trick!
I have a soft spot for the 21 card trick because it's the first card trick I learnt when I was a kid. I've done a lot of work to elevate it but I still think it's a fairly average trick.
This is a brilliant video.. Thanks Craig. Someone voicing my own thoughts 😂😂😂
The not doing a deck switch when using multiple decks is just dreadful, it's not like you even have to do a particularly hidden deck switch either, even just putting the decks in your pocket or case whilst you do something else is enough cover if made to look natural enough.
1.) Excessive use of the words “actual” or “actually”. It happens WAY too often. Just the other day I watched a video by a magician that I respect and enjoy, but he uses the “actual/actually “ thing approximately 16 times in a 3 minute clip.
2.) Thumb shooting out when a coin is classic palmed. This is even worse when followed by magician’s pinkie.
3.) I have yet to see a magic square that I thought was entertaining. Even if they involve escapology.
4.) Scripts that are all nonsense and scripts that are all demonstrative. When I say nonsense I mean vague lines about “energy” in a three phase multi-coin routine. As much as I enjoyed the tricks ellusionist put out in the 2000s, those folks had the absolute worst patter or script lines to go with the effects. Demonstrative speaks for itself. People aren’t stupid. One doesn’t need to say “If I put the coin in my hand…”. Just put the goddamn coin in the hand and keep moving.
5.) When a mentalist appears to struggle to psychically ascertain a bit of trivial knowledge from a participant, says the information out loud, but then goes on to reveal that he/she/they had already predicted this information earlier and that it has been in plain sight since the the beginning. If the mentalist already knew well enough in advance to write the prediction down and place it in plain view, what was the point of all the struggling?
"Do me a favour" when it's not a favour, "now I'll do....{x}....is that fair? Is that fair?" along with "It just SEEMS fair hahaha", not taking your best effects and building your own presentation for them, I also hate bad routining. Just seen a Magic Castle Closeup performer who wasted his best effects by the time his show was halfway through. When the last effect came, it was very underwhelming (as the audience also thought). Oh, I also don't like people 'pretending' to be funny and nice. Most magicians pretend that, but a lot actually manage to feel decently authentic.
Ah, how could I forget. "I can do this with or without applause"/"I'll do this until you like it"/"...and the audience will burst in spontaneous applause". I hate magicians asking for applause. It really feels pathetic and underserved, especially as it shows how few magicians actually understand audience reactions. MORE PET PEEVES CRAIG!
Magician who say they're using a fake method for a trick and act like the audience are fools for not noticing like "how it works is that the coins are magnetic and I have a giant magnet in my shoe did you not see me cock my leg like a dog"
When a spectator says how great they think Dynamo is and the magician responds by having a dig at Dynamo.
27 phase cups and balls routines.
Creepy magicians
Illusionists who want all the credit for an illusion where all they did was drape a cloth over a box and pretend like their assistants aren't important.
On the excessive dealing, I grit my teeth when the selected card has disappeared and the participant is instructed to first, count that there are only 51 cards remaining, then are asked to run through the deck to verify their card is the missing one. This is not suspenseful or another phase, it’s boring and unnecessary.
Excessive blowing after pretending to write with a sharpie! Annoying!
I notice that a lot of artists have tons of tattoos, can someone explain why this is happening??🤦♂️
I cannot stand Magicians who say " Do me a favour" or every other word is erm!
tell it what
Totally agree with that one. Peter Nardi always wants so many favours done
@@robjacks2748 I love people doing me a favour! Must be the South London in me :-)
I would love to do you any favour. You're one of my favourite creators and teachers.@@AlakazamMagicUK
It actually does make sense to shuffle after a pass. A layperson trying to lose a card in the deck would stick it in somewhere and then shuffle the deck. If you stick it in the deck but don't shuffle you would know about where it is.
I see your point! But some think that a pass should be used especially when you want the spectator to know that the card is in the middle of the deck and can't possible have been moved or transfered to another place ie. Ambitious Card. There are other examples but I think you get our meaning. Like Craig stated if you are not trying to give the spectator that impression then just do a double undercut.
@@TheMagictom1 Yes. In the ambitious card it wouldn't make sense to shuffle after the card is apparently placed in the middle, for instance. The same with card on the ceiling.
Trying to look like one - Little beards, tattoos of playing cards, long coats, general smugness and the king of the magic turds - Paul Daniels.
"Do me a favour..."
"Now, for the first time..."
Endless recapping. "So you shuffled the cards, you dealt down 10 cards..." YEAH, I KNOW I WAS THERE!
Doing the paddle move 10 times instead of showing each side just once like a normal person.
In fact, any kind of over proving.
As I get more into mentalism, the same old presentation about body language/influence is starting to grind on me
Revealing a card by colour, then suit, then high or low and blah blah blah. Chan Canasta never did any of that...
Starting any coin routine by taking 'a piece of nothing' (Sorry Craig!)
