this was such a treat. There really is something extra cool about card magic being done in this new form. Also does David Blaine just use his card decks for everything? He's writing on them like a notepad lol. Does he own toilet paper? or just cards?
Ugh this video had it ALL Also so cool to see the mutual respect they have for each other. The mention of the street magic was maybe my first introduction to David Blaine! CHEEZ-ITS!!!!
I grew up watching people giving loads of abuse to David Blaine when he locked himself in a plastic box in London for some sort of lame stunt - so much fun 😅
Easy with including whole world in your comments just to impress someone. Video got 25k views while you were commenting. It makes just 0.00033% of world's population!
No, not really. The less technology is involved, the more natural the trick feels. This is why card tricks are so popular. Because few things are more immediate than a simple deck of cards :-)
As someone who knows a thing or two about card magic, this really shows how important presentation is to magic and at that you're just a natural. Good stuff!
@@BRAZZERZ from what it seems , it's a neat self working trick. I know one way it can be done exactly as done here , but I'm not sure they did it that way or not , especially with David showing him cards in between (one of them being two of clubs itself) and doing other stuff.
I think the coolest thing about all of this is that even though David has been in the game for so long, he still smiles wide every time someone is amazed by the tricks. I love that.
David blaine is the reason i started doing magic 9 years ago And it helped me allot in school because i am/ was pretty shy but when i started doing magic it helped me communicate more with people and make more friends.
This video is unexpected on so many different levels, and I'm having an emotional reaction right now. The magic was mind-blowing (obviously), but the fact that the video is just so wholesome (and novel in so many ways) is really going to cement this as one of the greatest MKBHD videos of all time.
I’ve literally been on a kick of watching David Blaine videos in the past few days bc I randomly started discussing magicians with a friend of mine for NO REASON. So the fact that you, as one of my favorite RU-vidrs that I watch all the time, are uploading a vid with him feels like some kind of elaborate magic trick to me rn lmao
This is definitely one of my favourite videos from you , not just because it's different in content but just the vibe and the production was top notch.
One of the best parts about magic is the reactions people give. I’m glad that this subject was touched upon. I’m a huge fan of David and loved this so much. This video is epic!
I love that you asked David why he moved onto RU-vid because hearing it from his perspective it further validates RU-vid! Such an interesting guest to have your podcast
Being a professional magician David Blaine's street magic 1997 special was totally transforming for madern magic and making it a recognizable artform on a global level! Good to see this collab!
That feeling when you fool someone with a trick is the best high that youll ever feel. It feels so good because it shows that all the practicing that you did by yourself was not for nothing.
The video pacing and overall composition! And seeing David in real sit-down 1on 1 is absolutely outstanding. This may be one of the best videos on youtube !!!
Two absolute ledgeonds Complimenting each other in their own craft I mean seriously MKBHD not only getting lessons but from a true sorcerer but learning quickly and putting his own delivery on it was incredible! Respect and congrats to both of you! Thank you guys so much for everything you do it's more then you will ever know in your own way and now together!
Soon as I saw David I knew this was about the studio course. As an ex-practicioner, just FYI, Ellusionist has been around for more than a decade teaching magic and it's a great resource for any aspiring magician.
Marques, just an idea, I'd love to see a video from you talking about low budget phones with great specs. Talking about Poco phones (which the latest ones go for around $300 and are beasts) or TCL or others. Just in general talking about the tech behind them and how they compare to higher end phones. btw, awesome video as always.
Aside from the amazing tricks Marques was pulling off courtesy of Mr Blaine, I have to say I really enjoyed how this was edited into an episode of TV show. Big props to the editor
This has to be the most fun video I have watched in recent time, hands down! Marques, loved your delivery while performing magic. You were smooth, man! Loved it!
Is the trick that he put the original deck down and picked up another deck? And in the original deck there were multiple copies of the 10 of clubs in a row so Austin would pick that card?
I'm a huge David Blaine fan. I've watched so many of his videos in 380p resolution from 10-12 years ago. Throwing up the frogs was the best one I've seen. How do you hide live shit? The Dave Blaine street magic spoof, with the two guys was hysterical.
I clicked on the video obviously expecting Marques to show up after the intro but it was Arun!Was suprised and very happy to see both my fav tech creators together.
11:30 Look at David's face, he absolutely loves it! I would highly recommend his interview on the Joe Rogan Experience... his passion for magic and his energy about his craft is so infectious and a real joy to watch.
