Michael I always enjoy watching your videos. I love the candy heart pop out, very creative. The asian guy was funny but seemed like he was on crack. Can't wait for the next video.

Remember kids crack is wack!

I liked it and all, but I saw lots of opportunities for one-liners and such. I used to try to script my close-up effects, but this video is exactly the reason I stopped that. It seemed as if you were afraid of deviating from your script and interacting with the audience more than required. My effects that I perform in school usually take waay too long because I joke around with the class a lot. Today in 3rd Hour I performed one of the simplest and easiest to figure out tricks that I know (a simple One-Ahead Principle thing), and still got great reactions.

I don't know about you, but the Asian kid was annoying the he11 out of me, and I think you should have taken care of him. He practically taking over your performances at some points, and would not shut up. I think it's great that he was having a good time, but I think something should have been done about him.

Again, I did like it, but I would have liked to see a more personal and interesting performance.

Stole all the words right from my mouth.

You are a very, very talented young magician. Please keep with the art. If you ever have some free time, I'd love to talk. You can find all of my contact info via the "Contact" link on my wordpress blog (the link is in my signature).

Good video Michael. I really like how these tricks played big even though they are so simple. Oh and the reactions were very funny. If you don't mind I'll quote a few. (They are mainly from the Asian kid)

Random Kid #1: "Can I keep it! YAY!"

Michael- "See, the girls say they feel love but the guys don't"

Asian Kid- "I lost my voice at the basketball game yesterday, I was oike WOOOO!"

Michaels Reply To Asian Kid- "I can tell."

Asian Kid Again- "I love You!"

Asian Kid ONE MORE TIME - "If you were a girl, I'd rape you."

The chocolate heart thing was really good.

I've been called Magic Mike, too. I like that one. haha

P.S. Was that asian guy on crack?

All Asians are opium. Everyone knows that. lol

Do you think his reactions were honest, or was he just messing with you?

That guy didn't really annoy me. (not just because he's also Asian)

If he was doing that when I was performing, I would just start messing around WITH him, pretending to be intoxicated as well. That isn't your style but it is mine, my character and performances are a little bit crazier than yours. Just as scripted, but I try to give the appearance that I'm making it up as I go along.

If when someone starts acting like that and you act even crazier it can be funny. You're encouraging their behavior and building it up into a frenzy which sets up the mood of the crowd up for some crazy reactions. (this wouldn't be good at a serious gig, but in a casual setting it works as long as you are in control)

But, if anyone wants to know a simple joke that will make any Asian person shut up PM me. :D

(I'm not selling out on my race, but annoying Asian people piss me off too. especially how some people associate us together)
 
Great video, enjoyed the magic and the reactions.
The asian kid is funny, I probably would've gotten a bit annoyed at him at some point, but he provided good side entertainment with his reactions.
