just confront him and say, "Hey, I never ruin your tricks." usually he'll probably say "sorry i dint know it was a big deal" but if he does it still just take him under the slide and stab him with a stick that you sharpened during german class with your scissors. thats what i did with little jimmy... whoops

if im hecked i just sort of make an [edited] out of the heckler.or let them do whatever they want with the cards and when them totally make a fool out of themselves i just tell them good try but i think your better off leaving the entertaining to me or somthing like that.

i hope u read this, cause it works....... what u do is u do a trick, and pretend like ur palming a card, when ur really not doing anything at all, he'll feel dumb and embarassed

Just say " Here's a man with such abig mouth he can eat a bannana sideways"or " You'll make money some day. Your ignorance is commical.", or even " I'd like to run into you again. Somtime when you're walking and I'm driving."

1. I think hes not on anymore

2. If he hasn't solved his problem for 3 years, then to edited with it

Hopefully he didn't follow someones advice and "off" the guy in one of those school shootings we always hear about on the news.

The best way to deal with these sort of people is just:
a) Don't Perforn near them
b) Turn the crowd against him
c) Tell him,"If you know how to do the trick, Than show me!".
d) Tell the audiance, before hand, for them to laugh and pretend to be making fun of him if he decides to show up during a trick!
e) Make him part of your act and mabye instead of ruining your tricks, he'll get the attention he wants by helping you.
f) or..... ... Just kill him.....JK

Hope one of these help or spark new ideas....

i really HATE magic ruiners so watcha gotta do is just do a trick that makes the guy you did it on look dumb, and everyone sees how its donebut him

Yeah, then he won't feel he has anything to prove

When ever this guy comes around you, stop the trick your doing, hand him a deck of cards and announce to everyone that he is going to to a trick. Odds are that he is crap at sleights and will probably end up ruining his own trick.

Ok this requires no tricks or anything its just pay back. Tell him you will show him a cellphone trick. Then ask him for his cell. As soon as you get it you got 3 options
1. Chuck it at the ground or fart on it
2.Light some flash paper and throw it at him
3.Do a trick with his phone

i go with option 3. Maybe with ghostvision or just say something hella stupid while you distract him and get his number. MAke sure you get his number. Then you turn make sure you turn his volume way up. then hand back his phone saying oh your phone is to weak for my awsome tricks or something goofy of that sort. Wait til he goes in class. Then call him . His phone rings in the middle of class and gets taken away for like a long time. Just make sure to do the all famous disappearing trick if you ever see him again.


Ok heres my real advice. First if your performing you are the spotlight of attention this guy wants attention and thats it (maybe he is a little distrubed .....) Yeah from what i see he wants attention. It isnt his time to shin so just use the cword against him. 90 percent of the time the cword wants to see the trick anyways and dont want distractions. you must keep in mind that you are bigger or more famous or however you want to call it then him And hes jealous of your Talent. You might not want a trick that is sleight of hand or using props just go with a simple card trick or self working. You can not let him get to you to the point where your going to buy new effects just to show him up. Well i dont know if this really helped or anything but i hope you dont let him bother you . Becasue YOU WERE BORN TO PERFORM!!!!

why is this post still going?

tell HIM to do a trick, Then ruin HIS trick (just a random idea)

Then you would be sinking to his level, and that's not something you want to do.

This happened to me once, but it wasen't at school, i was performing for free to help my local younghouse having a trip to six flag.

So that kid was a magician, he was a begginer, he only knew some sleights but it seemed like he was doing coin work because he wasen't able to get card tricks.

So i took some coins, and i said, ( audience and the kid listening ) Try to find in wich hand the coin is, So i mimicked a very bad french drop, but i really took the coin, So i said in wich hand is the coins,

Audience: LEFT!
Kid: Right!

Open my hand and the coin is lying on the left palm, And i look at the kid look at him in the eyes for 5 second then i said : You call yourself a magician and you can't even determine in wich hand is the coin.

The kid was being way too worse before, so i was at the point to make a fool out of him, so the audience lauged at him, he remained silent the rest of the night.

That's easy to do, but will fool many annoying kids.
