Magic Tricks

I hadn't seen much of Ben's work before other than a video or two on youtube.

I was very happy with this purchase once I started watching it. My only complaint, as with the other reviewer, I agree that Ben had too many breaks on this DVD.

Aside from that, Ben put '4' Awesome effects on this disk. One, not mentioned, as a Bonus and it's a Killer too.

I actually purchased this disk just to learn The Myth. That's all I wanted. Was I surprised to find Ben's handling of Bold Assembly and Triumph v.136 equally as powerful.

Bold Assembly: I liked Ben's handling for the most part, but the routine had a 'weakness' to, in my opinion. For those knowlegable about 4 Ace Assemblies, you may or may not agree with the 'weakness', once you see the routine. Aside from this one 'weakness', in my opinion, powerful piece of magic.

Triumph v.136 really caught me off guard. Ben's twist on this is very nice. I did Vernon's version for years, from Stars of Magic, but have seen other nice versions on this plot.

Ben is excellent at giving credit to others who inspired him and who created the 'plot' for each effect, and also Ben is a very good teacher.

I'm sure once you learn the workings of The Myth, you will find a thousand uses for the 'principle' used to create this masterpiece. Really ingenious.

I'm not a table worker, so probably won't use the other 2 effects, but this disk is definitely worth the small price tag. Just to learn The Myth, for me, was worth the money.

I also love the fact that Ben is a brother Canuck. Great work Ben. Looking forward to seeing and purchasing more of your material. I would have given 5 Stars, except for the annoying breaks. Sorry. Otherwise Highly Recommended.
