Take a look at this, a spiral... One is green, and the other is blue? Or one is blue and one is green?

You're wrong. They are in fact both the same colour. - It is funny how our brain reacts to what our eyes apparently see. I love optical illusion's and trickery, after all I am a magician who likes sleight of hand and other misdirection techniques too.

What optical illusions do you like, and are there any magic performances you like? Share here! :)

Here is one sleight of hand and misdirection routine I am growing to like:

 
The orange stripes going through the "green" changes our brain pattern to think that both of the same colour are two different colours.
 
For card manipulation, my favourite at the moment are Virtuoso, they are so creative. Look at their trailer here:


And the Gambit re-make here by them:


I may share a video a day, which is related to trickery or magic! :)
 
This type of optical illusion is clever also, for those who have not seen it before:


A good example of a brilliant stage magic act is:


If you don't watch the above video you are missing out! :)

Lots of practice needed there! But it's not too hard from the video to see when and where he places and stashes the coins/phones.

Still, wish I could flick coins into a suit as easily as he does :( Whenever I do it I always miss :o

It is great work though! :D

I find that if she seems to be spinning anticlockwise (which for me is most of the time) if I watch the shadow of her foot in the bottom left corner somehow that flips her and she is rotating clockwise.

This is the same for me.
 

Another stage act, with some misdirection, as it is filmed, you can notice some of the effects as it is harder to misdirect on film. Still good footage none of the less. :)
