He greatly underrated by the general public but regarded as one of the best by fellow magicians.

Some of the best slight of hand you'll ever see.

That was one but he had another I thought.
Remember putting Debbie into a box and cutting it ib half and spinning it around; I was jumping up and down wondering what how he did it.

'First Farewell Tour' maybe?

Very good from Daniels there - at least there is an honesty about the dishonesty from him.

Your man Barry is all a bit too serious.

Sir Arthur Daley

Debbie McGee was some mare in her day in her little magic outfits.

Seriously, guys. Are you expecting that any one of these guys is really a psychic/medium/magician? The fun is that after the show, you try to work out how they fooled you. Because they DID fool you.

I like Derren Brown because he always tells you that he's full of shit, but then still manages to convince some of his audience that he's "genuine".

Plus I'm sure it took Daniels a long long time to perfect those moves while it probably took Barry or Dynamo a few minutes to pay the stooges.

Funny thing is people probably see Daniels as a bit of a joke but Barry and Dynamo as mystical and cool.

Seen keith record 1 of the shows... excellent to watch...

won the tickets on a facebook competition. Its the episode near the end of the series. Whether its real or not only a few can answer but hes making a good living from it and at the end of the day he does put on a good show.

I for 1 will watcb the rest of brain hacker im full sure im on 1 of the shots aswell " seen it on the recording screen"

In college we were taken to the taping of one of the shows he presented so as to see what goes into making a show. Barry came across as an absolute dick and his between filming banter was nasty and uncalled for. He was an absolute dick and seemed to think himself above everyone else in the room

Sir Arthur Daley

I have met him down in Kenmare a few times and is a pure snob and stuck up cnut.

Paul Daniels is on tour with his show and one day he gets píssed off with doing the tricks and asks the audience if they have a one to show him.

A man goes up on stage and tells Paul that he will need a table, some rope and the help of his lovely wife Debbie.

With this the man ties Debbie to the table, pulls down her knickers and starts riding her.

Paul Daniels says "Stop! Thats not a trick!"



The man replies "I know

but it's fúcking MAGIC

"

I dont like him. Watched the programme and it was bad. He's very tedious to watch, no showmanship. Derren Brown I like.

FatRat

I don't believe it to be real magic or anything like most people but we still have to hand it to him .... Hes a really intelligent guy. Think about him this way .. He knows something and posesses talents that only a handful of people in the world possess or understand. It might all be complete bull**** but to still have a mind to be able to pull off such bull**** with an end product of people paying to watch you. Well, he's doing doing something right anyway.

He always struck me as a bit of a tosser. Does he still have his put on American accent?

If ye think Keith Barry is bad, go look up Criss Angel.

I think Derren Brown is the best there is today. I think Barry and Dynamo concentrate too much on making it a show and letting that entertain the public. Derren can make it a show but also letting what he has spent years and years researching blow you away. Plus, Dynamo's show on Watch was limited in it's actual magic. Walking down the side of a building and crawling through an open door was more important. David Blaine is also very good, but with what I've seen of him, I think he's not quite as good as Derren. David is more about pushing the limits of what the body can do and using that to impress.

stefan idiot jones

Dynamo us very clever unfortunately the Prince Naseem Hamed lookalike has zero charisma.

Cris Angel's tricks I think are so over the top that you just know its trickery with smoke and mirrors that you don't even try to think how it's done.

Look up where he hovers above the Luxor Hotel within the light, so obviously a stunt rather than a trick if that makes any sense.

What do you mean real? Is he really reading people's minds? Of course not

Is he really doing tricks on genuine audience members? Maybe

Is he using shills or stooges? Maybe.

Hello_MrFox

I think people who actually think these kinda guys are actually doing 'magic' are mentally touched.
