Just finished the Houdini Tour by David Copperfield himself here in Las Vegas... He actually performed some fantastic mind reading stunts during the late night tour ... IT WAS AWESOME!!!!
EVEN THOUGH HE ADVERTISES HIMSELF AS A MAGICIAN HE IS AN FANTASTIC MENTALIST.(No doubt about it) I saw him do a tremendous prediction effect using every ones email during his MGM show. He performs this Mentalism effect for almost a million people a year. So by sheer numbers he performs more Mentalism than any Mentalist I know. Looch ... Do you perform for 750,000 a year? just sayin'.... I'm not cracking on you ... I'm just giving Copperfield his due..... (Rhymes) https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=......f_t=like

Here's a bold statement that I would like to discuss and see your opinions about:
" It's even easyer for a beginner mentalist (with some practice and understanding the concept about what mentalisme is) to perform a mentalisme effect and make the audience believe in the real deal then it is for David Copperfield" Why do I throw this one up in the air? In my opinion by naming just the name Copperfield laymen will automaticly think about performing tricks or illussions. Nomatter how superior David Copperlfied's performance is, while performing a mentalism effect, laymen will still think that it is a trick because that is what he is known for. Laymen will have a open mind when seeing a nobody mentalist perform, and although a beginner mentalist has a far less performance then David Copperflied, the beginner mentalist will likely have a better chance to been seen as the real deal then Copperfield because laymen don't have a reference point towards the beginner mentalist. In no way do I want to downgrade David Copperfield but I think in general in mentalism a wellknown background in magic will not help the performer to be seen as the real deal by laymen. Would love to hear your opinions about this statemen. |

IMHO ... So many mentalist give such huge Disclaimers today they won't allow ANYONE to think that what they do is real in any way.
So why not believe Copperfield just as much as Brown or Angel????

I wish I could see him too one day.
My sister saw one of his shows and my colleague actually got up on stage with him once when he did Portal. Jealous! |

Trolling again, Slim? You know full well that Copperfield is not a mentalist. Doing a "mentalism effect" does not make one a mentalist.

I'm re-evaluating my definition of mentalism ...so many disclaimers have driven me to the point of no return .... Everyone saying it isn't real means that anyone who isn't real can be a mentalist ... because it isn't real....
There is no longer a difference ... Copperfield just called and invited me back to see the show again tonight... this time I'll bring the notepad .. just for fun!!!! It's always good to learn from the greatest of our time!!!!!

Slim, how about posting some details and contact info on things you found on your trip. Like how does the Houdini Tour work, where is it, how much are tickets, etc? Inquiring minds want to know...

Oh, I see that there are more video interviews with Oprah giving insight into this living legend we are so fortunate to have among us.
