Can someone tell me a good joke or line I can say if a trick goes wrong to make the audience still be comfortable and feel good about me even though I made a mistake? Thank-You.

sometimes when it goes wrong its not so bad that you have 2 stop and you can just pretend its ment to go like that (its hard i no)! i dont no any funny lines so my answer kinda has nothing 2 do with the question (oh well!)

"I bet you all think I screwed up that one, huh? darn, how much do I owe you?" Or you could use "What did you expect, I'm payed 3 dollars an hour, and don't even work for more than 10 minutes, you do the math, I'll do another trick." Both from a book called "Bell's Magic Book" I think..o.o or Bell's Book of Magic, it's got some very funny things in it.

If you drop something, ask a girl to pick it up, and when she bends over say,"I do that trick for a reason!" it will get good laughs, and sounds as if it is part of your routine. Then you go to your next trick.

nice allbritton, i bet some of us here use it for real

;);)
here is something that happend to me:
i palmed a card, and it fell down, so a guy said: hehe, ur trick is good, i got ya now
so i said: good going!!! i just wanted to c if u were following.
it was an ace that i palmed, i did a tirkc i made on my own by reaviling all the aces one after another, so after he gaved it back to me, i had the 2 other aces on top of the deck (the 4th was already reavelied) so i just puted the ace i dropped on top of the deck face up against the pace down deck and made the shapshifter, i said: i don't need this ace anymore, it falls all the time.

i know u don't need all of this, but i just wanted to show u that u need to be very flexable when u do magic, u need to think of funny lines at the moment, which only comes by practicing, hope this helps

look over your shoulder and yell "START THE CAR!"
or say "wow it's so quiet in here you can hear a career drop"
or "it doesn't look that bad from my side"
or "that's the first time it ever happened again"
or "it's all part of the show, folks... the part that hasn't been rehearsed"

i guess most of u know where i'm getting these from

If you drop a coin say ''Thank god the floor was there to catch it''
OR
''Gravity's been after my job for months now''
OR
''sh*t!''
