Magic Tricks

I’ve been a fan of Andrew Mayne ever since I first got into magic many years ago. I even had the privilege of seeing him lecture live in New York City. This online lecture is fantastic—I recently rewatched it, and it’s jam-packed with strong, practical magic that works in close-up, parlor, and even stage settings.

Here’s a list of everything he teaches, in order:

-Freefall
-Hypercards (my personal favorite)
-Tear Down
-4 Card Trick (referenced as A-Wave)
-Inversion
-Extreme Brain Damage
-Shiv or aka Stab’d
-Pencil Thru Cheek
-Monkey King / Mind Spider (Card in Shoe)
-Ghost Bills (taught in Q&A section)

Andrew is extremely entertaining, and it’s fun to watch how he engages with his audience. His approach to magic is very thoughtful—he focuses on material that’s easy and practical rather than unnecessarily difficult, all backed by real-world experience. Many of these effects have been marketed separately, so it’s a real value to have them all collected here.
Overall, I think this is a must-watch lecture.
