David Ben Live (Penguin Live)

The Knives David Ben’s work on an effect Max Malini used to wow crowds with using nothing but two ordinary table knives. This effect was later used by Charlie Miller to great success and David has received numerous requests to tip his work on this stunning piece of magic. It’s finally released here.

Everyone’s Card, III David causes one card to change into another and then change back. He then causes a single card selected by a spectator to change into three thought of cards by people in the audience. Finally, the card is changed back into the card originally selected by the spectator. This is an amazing piece of stand up card magic that is a true lesson in magic.

Extension of Credit P. T. Selbit’s “Elongated Lady” brought up to date using credit cards. This is a cornerstone of David’s close-up repertoire. Watch as a credit card visibly stretches and then slowly reduces back to is originally size.

Coins Through the Table David’s incredible handling of Al Baker’s Coins Through The Table.

Spirit Card Trick A spooky yet stunning card revelation. David takes a simple plot and turns it into a stand-up masterpiece using multiple people from the audience.

Just Another Packet Trick An amazing effect in which a borrowed bill vanishes in a flash and appears in a borrowed cigarette or sugar packet. This is an effect you can carry with you and perform close up or on stage for a larger audience. Includes all of the tips and insight from years of refinement. It also includes David’s important timing on how to produce and verify the bill with maximum impact.

Ringing In The Gaff A Matrix/assembly routine performed with 3-dimensional objects (BTW there are not extra objects- just the four objects and two cards). This is the perfect after dinner effect.

Torn & Restored Cigarette Paper This is the routine that everyone is talking about. David finally tips all. If you have seen video of David featuring this incredible piece of magic in any of his one man shows you will want this lecture for this piece of magic alone. First, David takes you through Ross Bertram’s “Berttram’s Bounty.” This is a stunningly elegant version of the Torn and Restored Cigarette Paper plot that is widely overlooked. David then goes into his handling of Nate Leipzig’s “Tear-Up With A Twist.” Finally, he discusses how he ties these two pieces together to create a masterpiece.

These effects and many more are taught in an amazing lecture you will not want to miss.

Throughout the lecture David tips his mitt sharing secrets, advice, moves, and insight that has previously been held very tight and only shared with a select few. You will gain incredible insight that will make you a better magician and you will learn incredible secrets revealed for the very first time.
