Ok, I've narrowed it down. The masked magician isn't Harry Lorayne. Lol! Great clip!

I saw this a few years ago and still laugh! Valentino must have been so happy that he was wearing the mask!!
I teach this trick at my magic camp and the kids learn it really fast.

This guy clearly has no skill.
After much soul searching about a signature, I decided not to have one.

Wow that was bad. I think I would wear a mask too if I was that terrible.

"Watch carefully . . . if I dig through all four packs, I can find the four aces! Oops . . . except one. Oh, HERE it is!"
But to be fair, he does raise some people's interest in magic, no matter how much I despise his methods. |

Haha, I actually do this effect quite often myself as the beginning of my ace routine, I think we all know that it takes more skill to mess this trick up than it takes to do it right.

Yes Gary, If he had gone through it even once, he wouldn't have screwed up like that. He probably googled self working tricks and mis read that one. Then picked up some cards on the way to the TV station.

Guys,
This idiot is making his existence and reputation from being spoken about: let's not speak about it He is a non existent ghost in our community.
Magic is the art of emotionally sharing live impossible situations

I know, a bit of a necro, but I also felt like playing a bit of Devil's Advocate.
I was actually in the age group (at least as I remember it) that might have been targeted when he was originally running his 'Magic's Biggest Secrets' specials... and I have to say: I enjoyed watching them, not because of the reveals (that was more or less academic to me) but because I just wanted to watch someone perform magic. I even tried to rig up some of the simpler tricks I'd seen on it. Years later as I'm attempting to get into it more seriously I can probably honestly say that Mr. Valentino did accomplish his stated goal of bringing magic back into the limelight, at least for a bit, and hopefully raising interest in it in a new generation. |

".. and there's the 5th card. The 5th Ace" LOL
Not only did he screw up but the beginning of the video is so poorly presented so with many pregnant pauses, um's and uh's and poor pocket management... I'm shocked at the lack of preparation.

He is a great teacher. Lessons in exactly what not to do. Should be required learning.
