YES!!!!! SANKEY PWNS ALL OF YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

A Jay Sankey forum did exist, but was removed as this forum has been made for all magicians. Just because Penguin used to sell Sankey products exclusively does not make him better than other magicians and that we shouldn't single out others. This is a forum to discuss for all magicians in in the hall of fame of the magic "world".

i never said he was better than other magicians i like him better than some magicians thats my opion and your right we shouldnt single other magicians out but thats not what im trying to do

Then why does david blaine have his own section( just because he has a tv show doesnt make him better).

What im saying is there shouldnt be a section just because he has a tv show.

Jay Sankey is a magician that makes his own DVDs and writes his own books, releases his own gimmicks, basically he has his own material. What makes him different than Paul Harris or...umm Lee Asher? He is simply another magician that releases his own material and franky I don't see why we must have a section JUST for him. Because he releases material more often doesn't mean he is someone special or better than others.

David Blaine is unique, he has done something no one else did before, he made his own special, he brought all these people to magic, presented some street magic to the magic circle, it opened a new world of magic - close-up magic - that people could see right in front of their faces on TV for the first time, rather than watching all those stage magicians with their stage utilities. He has done stunts too don't forget.

Blaine didn't open up the "world of close up magic". He just introduced it to the public.

I admire him for showing laymen that there is a different side to magic. A less geeky Magic Circle type quality. I don't understand what people have against him.

I also admire Sankey. He has written some good magics books, DVDs, lecture notes and has created many great magical effects. He seems like he is a nice person also.

Wow. JaredGill for a moderator you're not too bright.

"David Blaine is unique, he has done something no one else did before, he made his own special".

How old are you? 16?? David Copperfield had a TV special long before Blaine. Doug Henning had a TV special long before Copperfield. And I could go on. It's amazing how some of you people act like Blaine invented magic. And as far as him being the first person to do it on the street, uh.. have you ever heard of a guy by the name of Houdini?? He did a lot of magic on the streets back in the 1920's!!

Sure Blaine introduced a lot of new people to magic. But Jay Sankey has introduced a lot of new magic to people. His creations far out weigh Blaine's contributions to the magic world.

First, that was well before Jared was a moderator. Second, don't you think his opinion could've changed?

If you hadn't noticed, this thread is more than 6 months old.

Thanks for sharing with us your opinion athunt. I love you too.
