As rudimentary and simplistic (and probably obsolete) as these tricks might be, they are a brilliant insight into how magic, and the thought processes behind it, works.
My dad bought me a version of the milk trick back in the 50s in Miami from a place that sold magic tricks. That and many others give me a lot of entertainment when I was young.
Thanks for uploading! Been searching for this vid forever. Great memories entertaining my family and friends at school with these tricks when i was in 3rd grade!
i didn't care for the rollercoaster escape one. to this day rewatching it the moment he leaps outta the way it looked fake. like an edit or green screen. i don't believe it was, but it never looked right. plus i don't think he needed to do "risky" escapes for viewership. his magic is too good and too clean to do those types of acts, imo.
The sound is way out of sync with the video, but still good information. Lance is a true professional. One of the best of all time, back when magic was not performed via video edits (I'm talking to you, Dynamo!)
