Thread Magic (World’s Greatest Magic)

Experience the Mystique of Thread Magic

“The most captivating effects in magic are those where inanimate objects move without any visible cause. Such illusions, especially when performed up close, create a sense of genuine wonder.” These words from Al Baker in his seminal work, Pet Secrets, introduced a transformative era in magic.

This DVD showcases six contemporary magic masters who have harnessed the power of invisible threads to create astonishing effects. Jeff McBride kicks off the collection with his hands-off rising card trick, followed by Michael Ammar’s breathtaking floating bill that left Johnny Carson in awe. Eugene Burger mystifies audiences as a chosen card seemingly crawls out of a hat, while Jeff Sheridan brings a small capsule to life and levitates a spectator’s ring. Harry Allen presents his take on Steve Dusheck’s iconic floating bar, and Dan Harlan showcases his psychokinetic abilities with a spoon that is examined throughout the act.

Mastering the art of thread-based illusions can be challenging, as audiences often come close to guessing the method behind the magic. As Carl Ballantine famously remarked, “How else…?” However, with insights from the talented magicians featured on this DVD, you’ll be equipped to incorporate these incredible demonstrations into your own performances, ensuring they are executed flawlessly!
