A pretty impressive trick. A corner is ripped off of a playing card. The teared off corner is help by the spectator. Now, the card gets lost in the deck. Literally lost in the deck. The magician does not know where the card is. The magicians foot is presented. Not exactly his foot but the shoe. And to be more specific, the shoe lace. One hand grabs a loop, and the other hand the deck. The cards get thrown towards the shoe lace. It causes a big mess on the floor. However, one card managed to stay "alive". Believe it or not, it is the card we nearly teared off a corner of; attached to the shoe lace and from here, the spectator can take off the card and examine it and check if the corner matches. AND IT DOES!In all honesty, not my cup of tea. Don't get me wrong, it is not a bad trick; it is actually quite nice, but nothing I'd perform. I will, however, add this to my repertoire. Just my 2 cents :)ENJOY!
This is the classic Captain Morgan commercial that they used to show non-stop during football games.Feel its not a bon-fire...unless they can see it from space. (big blazing ball of fire!)Know how to treat a lady, and her cousin, and her neighbor and someone she kind of knows from the gym? (her and her and someone she kind of knows from the gym)Think aerobics is a sport? A spectator sport! (Feel the burn, take a look at that!)
Dan Hauss has discovered a rare piece of strange that brilliantly abuses the laws of nature-allowing you to mysteriously and from a distance stop and start the flow of liquid from an innocent bottle of designer water. Your spectator actually experiences the entire astonishment in her own hands! You never touch the bottle-or water-throughout the entire effect. All can be immediately examined: the empty bottle, the spectator, you, the water, the street, everything! Check out your local magic shop for this amazing trick.
An ordinary deck of red Bicycle cards are shown. The spectator chooses one card and places it face down on the table. The magician takes the card and places it into the stack of blue jumbo cards. The jumbo cards are then cut. The magician turns the cards over one at a time asking with each turn if the card is theirs. You come off as a very bad magician. You tell the spectator that you dont usually give the secret away. You say, If you noticed, you chose a card from the red deck. All these jumbo cards have been blue. So, all I need to do is find the red card and it will be yours. When you get to the last card, not only did the spectators original small card vanish, but the last jumbo card has a red back and is revealed to be the chosen card.Alternate effect:Magician shows 4 jumbo blue cards. The spectator chooses a red card from an ordinary deck. The magician loses the small card into the jumbo stack. The magician cuts the deck then spreads the cards to reveal 5 cards, 4 blue and one red. The red card is revealed to be the spectators chosen card and the small card has vanished!Trick includes gimmicked Jumbo Bicycle cards and full instructions. Easy to learn and perform.

You know, I really don't like this new YouTube format of organizing my videos. It sacrifices details for compactness, has a glitch where the video description is packed into one huge paragraph, doesn't tell me the exact time my video was uploaded (saying only the day), and doesn't allow me to reach the actual video from the list.It's supremely annoying and completely not asked for. Worst of all, this update wasn't mentioned in the YouTube blog so I don't get to see other people complain about it.Match #1OlimarCorneriaThis is proof for anyone who claims that Friend Matches lag less or not lag at all--it doesn't take eagle eyes to realize that this is a Friend Match with a ton of lag to go around.This match took 5 minutes to complete, but the game thinks it took 2:40. (Looks like I was too concerned with getting to the Warp Star that I let the Smash Ball fly out of my possession. Oh well.)Match #2Spectator ModeWario, King Dedede, Meta Knight, SheikMario CircuitI was in Spectator Mode as I got tired of waiting for people to join matches. I guess I'll share one with you, the only one I watched that wsn't in Final Destination. Here's what a match looks like without lag, and here's what happens when Wario drives his bike into Meowth. You'd think Wario would be happy someone's throwing money at him.Match #3LucasBig BlueI don't select this stage too much, but only because I forget it's there. I played a whole bunch of Final Destination before this, and I picked this stage for the simple reason to annoy people who choose nothing but Final Destination. Can't these guys at least pick a little Smashville once in a while? The Mario player is clearly a Final Destionationer for the reason that he played VERY well before this match and because he quit playing right after this.
Like I mentioned in the video, if you post any comment which *explicitly* states how a trick is performed, or points people to "reveal" videos, then they will not be approved. Some people that I know personally visit my channel, and my "magical" status would then be completely lost. :(Tricks #2 and #4 were created by me, although they might've been created before. I just cobbled together some sleights to achieve the desired effects... by working backwards.Trick #4 is usually performed with the spectator holding the card in-between their palms instead of in a box... the effect is much more powerful that way. Usually I get comments like "Is there a cameraman somewhere around?" whenever I do that one.That said, the spectator's favorite seems to be trick #4, with trick #5 blowing their minds completely. Their response to #4, after opening their hands to see their card is there, is sometimes a violent jump backwards and a scream. Mwa ha ha... ;)Yep, I do realize that some of you watching might know how I do them, but to the mundane spectator they are all apparently amazing.It took a lot of practice to get to the point where I can do them this proficiently, but there are still some sleights that I would love to get down... particularly the "invisible pass." I know the mechanics, but man is it crazy!

Eisenstein's three great films about the Russian Revolution - Strike, The Battleship Potemkin and October - were all made between 1924 and 1928, before Stalin had consolidated his power and gained an iron grip on the arts. During this period the Communist Party initially favored Proletkult artists. Strike, made in 1924, Eisenstein's second film and the first of the trilogy, was originally planned as the first of a series of films documenting the pre-revolutionary working class. It turned out to be an artistic success as well as an educational aid and it won an award at the 1925 'Exposition des Arts Décoratifs' in Paris, as well as being commercially exhibited in Germany. On its release in 1925, Strike was poorly received by the Russian public, whose imagination had already been gripped by American films and the comfy folkloric familiarity of their conventional questing heroes and tightly developed narratives. A domestic flop in the Soviet Union, Potemkin was loved by German audiences, although the armed forces were forbidden to see it for fear of mutiny, as were Pennsylvanian audiences on the grounds that it gave American sailors 'a blueprint as to how to conduct a mutiny'.38 When it was eventually screened in the US in 1926, Chaplin declared it to be 'the best film in the world'. In France the authorities burnt all copies they could find - it received only a limited art house screening at Paris film clubs. Despite being banned in the UK until 1954, The Battleship Potemkin has rarely been out of the annual BFI critics' top ten list, and only then when another Eisenstein film has been voted in. It is easy to see why. The Odessa Steps sequence has even now the power to move and excite: '...Eisenstein, in forcing the spectator to create the image by putting together all the relationships between attractions (relationships existing because of the interpenetrating theme), gives to the spectator not a completed image, but the "experience of completing an image".'39 All Eisenstein's elements come together in this perfect piece of cinema and the audience participates in the process of producing meaning. The film documents an event that helped precipitate the 1905 Revolution which shook the Tsarist regime. The battleship Potemkin is a microcosm of Russian society. The ship's officers, doctor and priest - all representing the ruling power structure - pile abuse on top of abuse until maggot infested meat and a threatened mass execution push the sailors to mutiny. The mutineers eventually find sanctuary at the Black Sea port of Odessa, the setting for the film's penultimate sequence, showing Odessa's population supporting the Potemkin mutineers anchored in the bay. The sudden appearance of Tsarist soldiers abruptly reverses the joyous mood as the troops mercilessly advance, shooting everything that moves. Rhythm (cutting) builds with tempo (the pace of action within the frame) as the soldiers descend the steps in relentless solid formation behind the chaotically scattering crowd. This descending action travels left to right across the screen for rapidity (because we read left to right, top to bottom in English, our brains process screen information better in this direction, enabling us to read the images faster).
In the opening stage of Rally 1000 Lakes 1997 in the heart of Jyväskylä a Danish driver Karsten Rikhardt driving a GroupN Mitsubishi tried to take the corner at the end of a long straight way too fast, went off the road and hit a group of spectators. One spectator died and a lot of others were injured. *Video material slightly edited*

This is a clip about the 1986 Portugal Rally, were the Ford RS200 (Team Diabolique) of Joaquim Santos, after losing control of the car, crashed into the crowd at the edge of the road. This accident, in which the fatal outcome was due to spectator problems, led to serious concern about the safety of the rally, regarding the spectators, and the power of the Group B cars that was too much for those stages. The accident happened on the first day of the rally, in the Lagoa Azul stage, when Joaquim Santos in his Team Diabolique Ford RS200, lost control of the car when exiting a corner too fast. While trying to gain control of the car, Joaquim was powerless to miss the crowd that was right in the edge of the road in the next curve. Three people were killed in the accident and several were injured. Both the pilot, Joaquim Santos, and the co-driver, Miguel Oliveira, were uninjured.
