The death saw trick with the cutting crew music was awesome

@Mugthraka 4 года назад

Holy shit!!n its been so long since i last saw him!!! I remember when i was a kid this guy was everywhere, and the shows and tricks he made, where phenomenal!!!

@travisking8577 3 года назад

M parents took me to one of his shows back in the early 90's and was not let down. He made some ghost fly out into the audience and stuff, plus he is a great storyteller that draws you in to what he's saying. He paved the way for all modern magicians.

i just watch you Mr. Copperfield impact a young man greatly. The part of your heart to give has multiplied toward others. Your giving is more than magic. Rent for a year. Thank you sir.

I've got to say he's won me over. What an agreeable chap.

21:05 "Remember DVDs? There's a little round disc that you put around the thing and uh.. Anyway.." XD This guy is so wholesome. He even took the time to explain something that he thought most people now don't know.

15:47 "next time you're in prison, you'll see,..no exit sign" David copperfield, 2019~

probably the last of the best showman in the business. There should be a film made based upon his life.

@lobsterwhisperer7932 2 года назад

Copperfield's career was ruined when he got stuck in lift and couldn't escape, now he takes the stairs, like all great magicians.

I really like that last statement in the video! Makes me all warmed up and fuzzy :P

@Freigheist 4 года назад

What a legend. I had the chance to see him live when I was like 10 year sold or something. In the 2nd row!!!! I can't get it out of my head, and I don't want to. This was real magic, nothing like this cheap photoshop fakery of today.

Saw David in live Las Vegas ... he’s amazing.

@Czechbound 4 года назад

This is really fantastic. Mr. Copperfield is a very interesting and articulate storyteller. His illusions were groundbreaking, and still hold up today. He's wasted in Vegas. I'd love to see him host a documentary about magic. In fact, I'd imagine he would be a great presenter for any type of art programme.

The greatest illusion here is the title of the Video.

Flying and Portal are truly fantastic tricks. Pieces of art.

Thanks for the interview one of my favorite magicians I liked this always wanted to know the behind storeys about David Copperfield

@CyberneticArgumentCreator 4 года назад

"David Copperfield remembers some events he put on without explaining anything" doesn't get as many clicks, but that's the actual title.

@dr00ku 4 года назад

Listen, I love David Copperfield and I love hearing him talk about his tricks and why they are the way they are but lets all be very clear He isn't breaking down anything in this video

@R3troZone 4 года назад

He is breaking down his illusions. He is telling you step by step how they came to be. What he isn't doing is telling you step by step how they were performed. But the video doesn't say he is going to reveal how they were done. Nowhere does it say "David Copperfield reveals how his magic is really done."

@MagicofKeelanWendorf 3 года назад

He can’t reveal it 😂

Seeing him fly was just THE most magical thing I’d ever seen when it happened back in 1992. I was 10 and it was just next level.

So Amazing to see my my childhood idol! I dare to say that his input into Art is much more than into magic. That's a compliment!

@vanessasomuayina2439 2 года назад

David Copperfield is truly amazing you can WhatsApp him for a video talk through his team manager

@kamikazekid94 4 года назад

My three favorite illusions of all time believe it or not was the portal and when he flew and made it snow inside the theater, loved it. And Honorable mention Cocoon
