I want to no how to do street magic, last night i was watching blane darby the magic man and i want to do magic like him.
Tell me how to do at least one cool trick please and thankyou.
"cool trick" is an odd term. Tricks come in and out of fashion. The absolute best way to learn from scratch is to find a local magicians club and go. And be polite. And go again.
Street magic is mostly a variant of close-up, so that’s what you want to focus on. And to be honest, it takes the sorts of skills you see in door to door salesmen. You want to be polite, hygienic and well spoken. You don’t want to press people if they don’t seem to be ‘buying into’ the idea and you have to have a set of gonads (not literally, figuratively). You have to have the ‘umph’ to just walk up to people and get a conversation started and unfortunately, it takes practice, practice, practice to do magic well. We have all heard crappy guitar from someone who just took it up last week and wants to ROCK!. But, as in most things, you have to put the time and the effort it to get even half-way good. But it’s worth it. Any fair, any park, any bar- you’ll make money and get a great deal of satisfaction.

I believe there’s a special school or course for learning that kind of skill.

It takes lots of practice. The best thing to do is talk to someone who is good at doing street magic and consult them on how to do tricks.

There are lots of videos that you can buy to learn how to do everything. I have a friend who does street magic. He taught me some of his tricks and most are really quite simple.

I saw david blane last night too! Man he’s good. It takes years of practice to be like him, but you could start off with some simple street magic tricks off the internet

try doing a google search on street magic. There are some sites showing you how the tricks work.
but do note that the TV only shows you the performance that worked. EG. the magician did the tricks on some people, and of course a few failed. But the TV would never show you those.
