Please Daniel be safe and take care of yourself. Coughing nowadays is not so normal. I know that you know all this but we care about you. We respect you from the very core of our heart. Great tutorial by the way!

Daniels vids make my day

[@neomagus4732]

FANX, Daniel for the MADArt!

[@Arithmophobia]

The short vids are for people who just want the method, with DM teaches not just the method but the psychology and the performance techniques, FANX for that!

[@benbisaillon7488]

31:02 FANX for deciding to stay yourself instead of pleasing these people. My favourite part about this channel is the inclusion of multiple methods and techniques for every trick, including every detail along the way. I have recently fallen in love with the art of deception, and this channel is the best resource I have found. I will join the MALLIANCE as soon as I can.

[@HaveGuitarWillPlay]

The more that I learn about card deceptions, the more beautiful those deceptions become, and the more I watch you executing those deceptions, the more I fall in love with them. I don’t think there has or ever will be another person that can handle a deck the way you do. Each lesson is a blessing, fanks Daniel.

[@Cmcistnt]

I love how each tutorial is like a mini lecture with tips for the effect and overall performance ideas and concepts that have inspired me so much

[@CheveeGuru]

Daddy Maddy, thank you for all that you do. You inspire more than you know. I bought your full Masterclass series to learn everything I can so when I go to Disneyland I can perform tricks for children and make their day just a little more MAGICal.

[@oisinio4782]

Hi Daniel, I’m a young aspiring magician who got started with magic thanks to your tutorials. I love watching your videos and you inspire me to practice and to get better at magic. I really appreciate how much time and work you put into your videos. I hope to some day be as good a magician and sleight of hand artist as you. Keep doing what your doing and know that it is greatly appreciated.🙏

[@micah_magruder]

Good to hear you explaining why your videos are so long. It's always frustrated me when I see people in the comments telling you to make your videos shorter. I really appreciate that you haven't listened to them since I really enjoy hearing all the knowledge that's rattling around inside that head of yours😂 thanks!✌

Diamond tutorial you had to say:)

[@kurtisbrough9657]

I love the long videos ,you teach them in detail and answer all the questions I would ask if we were one on one. I met a magician on the isle of white when I was on holiday few years ago (2018) and we have stayed friends , thanks to him I now love magic and can't stop learning new slights . This channel is a real diamond that teaches not just magic but a beautiful art form. I just need to join your masterclass, As much as I hate magic being exposed on KZbin, when you show slight of hand as a art form It is beautiful and you do it justice every time. Fank you

[@fanjq1063]

The best teacher in sleight of hand art ❤️

[@derekpesce8279]

I am a teacher who enjoys magic as a hobby. The depth and detail to how you teach magic has made me revisit how I teach everyday. You address every possible misstep that can derail your students, you explain every nuance that will guide them in the right direction. FANX for the long videos, FANX for all your passion! Also, tell Susan hey for me 😘

[@CharlesAyrtonBlakeCobb]

I got into sleight of hand just a month ago and watching you helped me discover something new i wanna fully commit to. With all thats going on, (losing my part time job, having a enormous student loan to name a few) just binge watching your videos helped me cope. since i know you've gone through your fair share of trying times. I dont have much atm but I treated myself to a deck of Remedies for my birthday just to show some support and gratitude. so, from the bottom of my something, FANX, Daniel.

[@xspartah6992]

Ayrton Cobb great to see you in the magic community. Keep staying strong man, I’m a college student and understand the debt. Keep staying strong my man

[@austinambler3174]

All those people who say your videos are too long. Your videos are actually too short. Teach us everything you know Daniel. Best teacher on KZbin

[@Joachimgcn]

I'm in my mid 30s trying to get into this sort of thing, just because I've always wanted to. I greatly appreciate the longer videos, they help me pick up on things I've missed before. Zero complaints, and I'm definitely going to go looking for that gold where you mentioned I could find it.

[@KhoonieMagic]

I have joined this journey of learning magic and sleight of hand 3 years ago. This is one of my favourite channel and content creator. Daniel Madison changed the way I look at magic. I have improved a lot and thanks to his Remedies playing cards, I have performed and practise a lot in this quarantine. Hope you make more tutorials in the future. MAD FANKS to you and your tutorials.

[@treverjacks783]

DM what else can I say that hasn’t been said. FANX from the bottom of my somethin. It is creators like you who truly appreciate and respect the art and get me through these wild and crazy times. I love sitting down after a long day with a DM video and my deck and taking notes and practicing. It is the greatest therapy for my anxiety and depression and I can’t thank you enough for it. Much love and PLEASE keep doing what you do. It really means the world to a lot of us. FANXXXX

[@eversosleight]

Thank you for sharing this! I took away so much like the tips on false cuts and shuffle sequence (emphasizing packet drop, letting cards lay messy). Also finger position on bottom deal. Diamonds are forever for sure! I'm putting the bacon down and having sausage for now on. Much love and blessings!

[@sinsandman]

Madison, I have been following you for probably 10+ years now. You have always been an inspiration to not only my magic, but my life in general. Watching you weather life storms, seeing you stay true to yourself and always striving forward and accepting nothing less than perfection. Win or lose on the decks, you need to know that your life's work has not only affected others' lives but you have also had a hand in bringing joy and inspiration in the darkest of times in some lives.

[@zivbard9481]

Thank you for this video! It’s always nice seeing your bright personality, unlike some of your older videos. Hope you are doing well in these times.

[@nandoaires]

This is probably the only magician channel that I always watch the full video, and that's precisely because the tutorials are long and detailed. Please listen no more to those complaints, long and detailed tutorials are indeed the true value of your channel. And thanks a lot! :)

[@glenseaman5057]

I am consistently floored by how generous and incredible of a teacher you are. This routine is absolute gold and the fact that you’re teaching it for free is borderline criminal. I have such admiration for you. Your passion for teaching others is obvious and it is beautiful

[@magicorthodoxy]

If anything - your videos are too short! What a blessing to sit at the feet of a teacher. You're generous with your time and talents and with your GIVEAWAYS !!!

[@TheFreakOnee]

Daniel, just know that there is someone who's struggling battling heroin addiction that practices and performs sleight of hand magic and his biggest influence by far is you in almost everything and the biggest being your approach and theory, genuinely wanted to let you know that spending time watching and listening to you got a bigger impact on me more than you'll ever know. Aside from everything also genuinely wanted to thank you for taking the time to do what you do

[@dalekkrell]

Having only just discovered you and your channel, I can only be eternally grateful. A teacher who discusses the psychology, the presentation as well as the methods. Thank you so much

[@khashayarmirsadeghi]

with each video, you're showing what a generous person you are by sharing your deceptions, specially with *all* these details, thank you!

[@ShaunZinck197]

The first tutorial I watched was RIP. It was almost an hour long, and I couldn't get enough of it. I watched three more hours worth of tutorials right then because I loved the way you teach sleight of hand. I hope this brings a smile to your face and that you forget the negative comments about the length of your videos. I always want tutorials to go deeper. I never miss a single one of your videos because I know I'm going to learn something incredibly valuable. I'm a looooong way away from performing like you, but that's where I want to be someday! Your work, your passion, and your dedication to card magic will help me get there. Much love from the U.S.

[@kirillk.7633]

That statement at the end is really powerful and describes perfectly the main idea of every passion out there. If you want to get good at something you need to invest as much of your recources (like time) as possible. Those people are like complaining about a book with decades of knowledge being too long. You deserve all our attention, love and patience. Thank you, from the bottom ouf our something!😉

[@nocubesm4508]

This year, my parents have sent me to a foreign country to finish my schooling. Being so far away from my friends, and not being able to do the things I liked was killing me. Until I discovered card magic. I finally was doing something I liked. Seeing the smile of my spectators after a trick helped me to get out of depression, and I will never be thankful enough for that. Thank you Daniel for showing me the beauty of cards. FANX for teaching me such a unique craft. Forever grateful, S

[@orendubin3392]

I love your videos! I literally told my friends like 3 times today I wait for this tutorial even though they don't like magic. Without a doubt you are my favorite magician and sleight of hand artist, and I take you as my mentor and teacher. I hope you stay this good and please don't stop the long tutorials!

[@tobyrose4668]

Madison's deceptions are like music: perfectly tuned and timed to create the perfect ending moment

[@mikeypotts4732]

I absolutely love that your videos are longer than most and you like to talk. I'm sure there are many others who would say the same. We want as much as we can get from you whether it's tricks or rambling, so it's truly a pleasure! These videos are gold man, thanks for sharing them!

Just finished reading magic is dead and wanted to reach out and say thank you for all that you do for the magic community. You and the rest of the group have revitalized my passion for mastering sleight of hand and making the performance memorable. You have touched my life forever and I'm sure many more before and many people after

cant see why people complain of clips being too long,i say make them longer.i love watching and listening to you teach how to do sleights etc and to your teachings.we always get lots of fun and laughter from your tutorials.i do not attempt to do magic of any kind but have been a big fan of magic since i was 8 or 9, 45 years ago.fanx fanx.

[@PredatorMounts]

Daniel, what you are is in incredible human being. It's not just your heart or your magical knowledge or you way of teaching and presentation. Its a combination of those things, your charisma and generousity in your videos. As an ex counter intelligence agent for the US Army I have a wide knowledge of human behavior studies. I gave yet to find anyone who explains the reasons of why you correlate the meanings of your deception with the super in depth detail if the psychological aspects. People that done understand that some performances require the psychological. Keep up the amazing work my friend. Aaron. Ì

[@monsieurjacques2685]

Dear Daniel Madison, My name is Jacob, a wannabe card magician as insane as you are. You've been a major inspiration to me since 2017. I've watched many, nearly all, your videos on trying to improve my magic. Your teaching has extremely helped me with being distracted and away from my anxiety and fears. And every time I'd master a move that you'd teach, I'd go around showing them to my friends and painting smiles on their faces. Fank you so much for always being a channel i could watch that not only helps me improve in magic, but for also boosting my confidence, lowering my anxiety bar,making me smile and for always uploading. Your channel has really opened up another level of cardistry that's been hidden within me. I hope with all my heart that i somehow manage to win because I've always wanted personalised decks made by you.. if that didn't make you smile then here's some corny joke that hits my funny bone a lot. What's the difference between a lightbulb and a pregnant woman? Answer: you can unscrew a lightbulb 😂 Thank you again Daniel for everything that you've done and i hope you prosper and have an amazing day ahead of you. Much love, Jacob ❤

[@gonzalochoque5660]

Fanx for sharing with us this knowledge Daniel, it is easy to do a 5 min. Tutorial, but it is admirable seeing someone taking care of all the details of every move. A hug from Cochabamba, Bolivia.

This is gonna be my favorite sleight of hand trick. Fanxx!

[@sferguson1130]

Been following you for maybe a year and a half now and watched so so so many of your videos ( admittedly not all of them YET ) and you never cease to amaze me with your creativity in filmmaking, and dedication to the deceptive arts with a deck of playing cards. You’re the f-ing man my dude

[@dominikwilk2319]

Dear Daniel, fanx for all of your tutorials, most of them are really hard moves (hard as hell). I have been practicing the bottom deal for like 6 hours a day until my skin started bleeding. First thing i did when it finally cured was watching this DIAMONDS tutorial. Loved it! And again, FANX for being here. I feel like you are here for me. You are the best artist in the world of ILLUSION ARTS

[@dominikwilk2319]

PS can you cuddle Charlie from me?

[@courtneybates224]

I’ve heard you talk about the people that say your videos are to long. Man they have no idea. I am a rookie at this stuff. It can take me two hours to watch one of your videos cause I’ll practice stuff you show then move to the next step. I break your stuff down to stages and practice practice practice until I feel comfortable. I’ll break them down watch them over and over again pick them a part to catch every little detail. I’ll watch one of your videos every day several times and practice every move. Sometime I wish they were longer. You have taught me so much. I perform mostly for kids at a local school I go to visit and with your stuff I fool the teachers. They ask me how I do it. I couldn’t do what I do without the videos you show. Don’t listen to those people cause they obviously don’t really want to learn.

[@eugeneallenricafort5652]

Elegant trick! Pure art! When i'm watching your tutorials it doesn't feel like it's 30 minutes or more, i just listen and mimic what you're doing and i'm so amazed on your passion for magic and sleight of hand, i think you're the only one who does tutorials for that long, you explained everything well and even the smallest details when it comes to perfoming. BIG FANX FOR THE DEDICATION TO TEACH US SLEIGHT OF HAND AND MAGIC!

[@chieljong]

I've been interested in magic for a number of years now, but I've never seen someone talk about magic the way you do. I was also really blown away by your idea of 'Perfect' and to let 'the move' happen precisely at the opposite moment from when everyone would think. Every video I see from you I learn more and more and makes me want to practie. I'm so glad and thankfull to have found your channel Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and getting me and keeping me excited to practising sleight of hand and to learn new things Fanx!

[@nathanielgasper]

Thank you so much Daniel this was one of my favorite deceptions that I recreated from scratch but I still watched this with utmost focus because your psychology and philosophy behind the sleights elevated this 100 fold. To all of you watching this and future tutorials, Daniel's method sometimes might not be so appealing BUT his theory behind the effect is unparalleled. Mad love Madison.

[@brysonahlstrom8022]

Anyone complaining about a long video isn't going to invest the time in practicing the trick. They should stick to the magic kits on Amazon. I've been practicing the bottom deal for months and I'm still shite at it. Love the bottom deal video, it was definitely worth the money! My brain totally understands how it works, my fingers however are still trying to figure it out.

[@ryanknight9335]

I thought that telling a joke or something funny would end up being a bit lame, instead I thought that I should just tell you how important you’ve been in me learning magic. I’m only 16 but I’ve been trying to learn sleight of hand and card magic for almost 4 years but have never been able to perform for anyone but my parents. Even though I haven’t performed what I learn, I look forward to your uploads, watch every video the whole way through to improve, and I do. I see myself getting better and better every single time because you make the best tutorials on sleight of hand out there, and I love to learn from you. 4 years or so ago I bought my first deck which was a deck of rounders and I keep that in a very special place to remind me of where I started and how far you can go when you put your mind to something. And I can only really thank (fank) you for that, inspiring me, pushing me, challenging me, improving me as a magician and as a person. I just hope some day I can do what you do, walk in your footsteps and do magic as a career, you’re my idol. Fanks Daniel!

[@RationallySkeptical]

34:12 I so respect this part. I am new to the community, but when I heard your story I knew you were the artist I should aspire to be like if I was serious about making cardistry, magic, and sleights a part of my life. I am so grateful I discovered you when I did. At a time when so many of us need a little extra inspiration and motivation, you provide it. How? IN SPADES, of course! (To be honest, I am banking on the smile coming from the gratitude and not so much the horrible pun.) Fanx Mr. Madison!

[@mc7892]

Thank you for providing this for free, it's unimaginable how much this could be charged to teach such a high-level trick.

[@shanedittburner936]

Thank you, Daniel. I know I, among others, greatly appreciate what you do for the magic community and the art of deception. But, I would also like to thank you for those of us who come back to your channel time and time again just to see you. KZbin, as a platform, has become cluttered with so much shit, and negativity, and false realities of who people are and what their life is really like. But in that bottomless pit of content that we call KZbin your work stands out. You've become this beam of positivity to those of us who watch your content, and what's so captivating is that you're not trying to pretend you're something you're not. You're not trying to be one of these dickheads online that are trying to get internet famous by doing stupid shit that is just outrages enough to be clickable. The reason your content is so valuable and the reason that your subscribers and your fans love your work is that we trust you. Unlike most of the people on KZbin, your opinion is valuable, Hell your content and your opinions and advice is the reason I passed my 12th grade English class. I'm not much of a writer, but I wrote an essay on the different styles of magic and you were the main subject of the paper. I got an A and that's because the way you make your content is so compelling and inspiring that it makes your viewers give a shit, about you, your work, and the magic community as a whole. I put so much heart into that paper because I actually cared and I was passionate about the topic, and you as well as Chris Ramsay and other influential magic figures have instilled that passion in me. Regardless I know it probably looks like I'm writing this to win the giveaway, and to a degree that's correct, but it doesn't make my words any less true. But either way, FANX Daniel, we love what you do, and don't ever change.

[@sferguson1130]

Also, I wish all your videos were LONGER! I have all your master classes, which are far more time intensive, and that time I get to spend with you is priceless.

[@amateurcardician2379]

Being a beginner at card magic and sleight of hand, I understand how important that is to understand every little subtleties of every sleight, every trick and routine and it doesn't come easily, so how can you expect, the person who is willing to share his every bit of experience of over the years,to shorten the time of doing so. FANKX for delivering the unmatched and wonderful content to us. You no doubt are the best sleight of hand artist I have seen so far. And not making it very long I don't care if I win the giveaway or not I just wish you the best luck and keep doing what you are doing , you are really making a big difference for us aspiring magicians out here.

[@KinnereyB]

Thank you so much for not only this trick and video, but the way you do all of your work here. Everything you’ve ever taught is done with obvious passion and love, and to those who truly understand the dedication it takes to be that good, we love the fact that your tutorials are “long.” So I want to add a bit more. The detail is necessary for any serious magician. It honestly separates those who truly respect the art form and appreciate the intricacies bc we practice it and love it, vs those who just want to know the method but aren’t willing to put in the time. That attitude will kill magic. Fanx for taking a stand against it. To make an effect like Diamond look the way you do in performance is years of meticulous practice. That in a nutshell is why you’re among my favorite magicians and magic teachers. This is hands down my favorite channel on KZbin on the magic end. I’ve studied it for over 20 years. Effects ad powerful as the ones you teach in this kind of detail almost always cost money. Period. Your videos are the perfect length and you are appreciated brother. Fanx 🙏🏻

[@kierancaves4011]

Fanx for everything you do for the magic community and all of us! Your attention to detail is amazing, and your passion for magic and sleights really shows through your videos. Ever since I started watching your videos Iv'e been hooked - I remember the first one I saw was the real acaan, and in it you talked about dedication and the importance of building an "arsenal of sleights", and since then I've taken my practicing to a new level. These videos are helping me stay sane through quarantine, and you have definitely put a lot of smiles on my face!

[@themagician3094]

Haven't seen a person being so committed to share his experience and knowledge at the highest level, you sure are idol to many magician's in the making ,keep up the good work Daniel ,big fan here🙌♥️

[@richardelmurr3786]

Hey Daniel, I just wanted to say a big Fanks from Lebanon. You never failed to inspire me, to pursue all the small details while learning a new trick and performing it. I'm still new to this community, and it's kind of hard studying from the books alone, your videos are a huge help. In the midst off the revolution here, I always perform tricks after the protests or random strangers to make them smile like your videos and your funky style make me smile. FANKS FANKS from the bottom of my heart.

[@SPINERbg]

I am yet to understand people who complain about having too much Madison in their lives... Thank you, for doing what you do!

[@eliasreuter-grelak164]

I just wanted to get this out. I started doing magic a bit ago but stoppen for a whole, fell into depression and so on, don't wanna go into detail.Then I came across one of your videos. I really enjoyed it and started doing magic again and practised more often and not just practised but also showd stuff card tricks to strangers which is a huge deal for me. I then realized that i love it to perform card tricks and that it just makes me happy. So, in a way, you're one of the reasons why I'm still kicking, i guess. Not sure if that's what you meant with making you smile but even if not, I felt like I needed to tell you so FANX for putting out this amazing stuff

[@K0m0d0-Drgn]

I love how long your videos are! They have helped me learn so much and every minute is worth it for me to watch. You have really encouraged me and helped me to improve my sleight of hand to a point where it is better than I ever could have imagined it being. Thank you for all you do.

[@adityatalwar4920]

Hey man, I just want to stay that I appreciate that you take time in all your videos . I've been learning magic for the past 4 years and I understand that you dont teach these " setup" card tricks . You teach the art of deception and you dont leave any details . So I really appreciate that and I thank you for that , thanks!!!!

[@jonathanmedlock7865]

I love your videos. My nephew is 12 and recently started getting into magic. We watch your videos together and I help him practice and figure things out. It is a great bonding experience and I love watching him perform for our family. Thank you so much for sharing your techniques and explaining every detail. My nephew also thinks you are hilarious. Fanx for all you do, it has kept my nephew busy and helps the both of us think more creatively and gives us ideas that we incorporate into our own tricks.

[@msquared598]

A thought, I take my art very seriously, I am a teacher, like you, but I teach math, and my explanation tend to go long like you. I value teaching more than anything, and I follow you with dedication, and practice my art, with dedicated schedules everyday. You have been my inspiration not only in magic, but the way to teach in which you pour your heart out. For magic, I have mostly been putting your teaching on my social media for almost 4 months now. Thank you for being a big help. Love From India.

[@matteolupoi3635]

There was once an Italian magician, his name was Matteo Lupoi, and he had his own style of magic! One of his favourite effect was angle Z, with a twist! He used to make the angle appear in the crust of the participant pizza or sausage (we make the best)! He loved to hide cards in gamblers cop, but no one in Italy believed him, everyone knows that italians keep the fingers of their hands 24/7 together, you probably know what I’m talking about, so he kept the gamblers cop while his hand was in standard Italian position. And no one doubted his tenkai palm, for everyone his hand was just natural! And I’ll tell you the biggest secret of Italian magician, the know really well how to vanish anything because of mafia! Italians can vanish cards almost as good as mafia make problems and people vanish! But please don’t tell anyone. That magician is me!!!! Daniel, you really are more than a teacher, you’re a mentor and I’d love to join the Malliance, I was so surprised by your generosity and of course your skill. You transmitted me the passion for magic and the importance of practice, even though I’m much much younger than you. And most importantly you inspire me to stand out and be the only versione of myself, of Matteo Lupoi. Mad love and respect from Italy!

[@federicodenicola1117]

I'm Italian... I wouldn't talk about things I don't know..stay in your place and leave Italian culture out of these hypocritical discourses. Generalizing is a bad choice, especially when you don't know what you're actually generalizing about.

It's weird.. i'm trynna put a smile on you're face.. but thanks for always putting one on mine. Thanks for embracing this art because it's just what the world needs... a little magic.

I used to be heavily in to performing magic and card tricks until about 2 years ago things got a little stail, the love just wasn't there and I had no satisfaction for performing magic, that was until I found this channel back in November, this channel really changed back magic to the way I used to enjoy it and the way I used to love it, everything I learn on this channel gives me nostalgia to when I first started and learned my first card trick, so I do appreciate and thank you for teaching us and reminding me of those old days

I've been watching your videos for a year now, but it feels like I've known you for years or at least you know me (I mean like a personality).Although I love your tutorials, My favourite videos of yours are those you talk about your approach to life and how to deal with our problems and demons. As every person I got my own problems and struggle avery day and those videos really helped me to go through all this staff that were going on. I don't know if this will make you smile, but I really wanted to thank you for what you have done to and helped me even though you don't know me personally.FANX.MAD LOVE.

Your videos always inspire me to do better and practice more. Whenever I’m feeling down I throw up one of your tutorials and learn something new. I can honestly say that I wouldn’t have gotten into magic like I did if you weren’t doing what you are doing, and it’s always been a blessing for me even in the darkest moments. So, FANX for everything you do, and keep up the good work!

[@nobleseven4482]

Doubtlessly this was the most valuable tutorial you've given for free. Yet the final thought is of an even greater value. Thank you for remaining true to yourself, and thank you for sharing your art.

That is one of the most beautiful Sleight of Hand performances I have ever seen. I have noticed this act in the Bottom Deal Masterclass but I always looked at it as another cool Bottom Deal routine and always prefered Above the Below and 3 important Things for my Bottom Deal routines but after this video my opinion has change so much, this might be my favorite deception of all time. For sure the most beautiful. I'm doing this routine now at least 10 times a day FANX so much for the inspiration.

Daniel good man. You are spot on about youtube trolls. They suck. It's truly the toll we pay them, to endure their negativity. I love all your videos of all lengths. I don't always have the time to watch it in one sitting but that means I have content for a few days. The detail makes you a philosopher level of a deception artist. That is what makes something so obvious as this, so unassuming to the lay person. The philosophy behind each action and the mental process broken down. You rock, keep going Madison Strong.

[@christson3669]

Thanks for the amazing trick. I decided to give magic a try mid last december and while searching for magic tutorials, I stumbled upon yours and it has helped me a lot. I really like the art of sleight of hand. Not only it amazes the people I perform in front of but it also amazes me as well when I'm learning it. Your videos not only helped improve my magic, it also caused me to say Fanx instead of thanks sometimes.

[@lavanvyas1317]

you dont have to even react to the people who are saying shorten your videos we all love your teachings and always support you

[@SoCalFlights]

Not sure if this puts a smile on your face, but when my 12 year old son and I watch your videos it puts one on ours. And puts a bigger one on mine when I see him holding a single playing card between his fingers and spins himself while falling to the ground. Thank you Daniel for your teachings and your content.

[@noahkarottu7783]

FANX for these tutorials and even your performances over the years! I've been wanting tutorials with that are more skill-based for a while now, and ever since you've come along I've been pushed and bettered with my magic and my performances. You've given me a lot to practice, think about, and strive for. Please keep the amazing content coming!

[@MoneyMason]

Hey Daniel! Wanna say I appreciate how well you explain all your videos and the time that you put into each one. Not just on youtube, but any dvds or tutorials I have boughten from you are very lengthy and go so in depth on that certain trick or sleight. You're probably the only magician on KZbin that I have seen that goes so in depth on even your free content so I can walk away feeling like I know everything I need to when it comes to whatever you're teaching. Anyways, just wanted to say I appreciate everything you're doing and keep it up.

[@zeubauchoc5645]

Hey Daniel i am French and i gone to tel you my comment in French. Tu est incroyable tout ce que tu fais pour nous et tous tes tutorial grâce à toi je découvre des nouvelle technique et je me perfectionne I just wanted to tel you that i love you are amazing thank’s for all

[@thegamechewer2739]

You are an excellent teacher man! Fanx for teching us Diamonds. You are definately one of the best teachers in the art of sleight of hand. I learned the most of your videos!

[@benjaminbrown4684]

I have hours worth of your videos that I have purchased to learn. A lot of what you taught in this one I already have, yet I watched trying to glean any more knowledge from a master. I now know how you did the trick on Penn and Teller. All I have to say about the people who complain about the length of the video is they don't really want to learn technique to create, they want to learn tricks to just fool their friends and in the end they end of making a fool of themselves. I ran into one of them the other day. I done a trick for him and after bragging about how he could get a card to the top of the deck. I used the same trick he described and blew his mind because he didn't even see it. He was so focused on learning tricks he wasn't learning technique.

[@alexisdutkas4120]

I always like to watch your new trick videos.You seem to put a massive amount of effort in what you do.The thing that I like the most is that you love doing this and it is amazing that you can inspire so many people to come and join this beautiful world of magic.I am a begginer and I am just mind blowned when I see how cretive you can be and how much you try to make us feel good while watching your video.Please do not ever stop from doing this!You are an inspiration and an incredible human being!Thanks for existing Daniel.

[@mkctaskin52]

I don't know how to make you smile.. but I sure will say that I don't care who says that "You're tutorials are long ." All I know is you are one of the best teachers I've ever seen..I watch Your vids everyday 2 to 3 times just to make sure that I am learning correctly.. maybe this will make you happy that, I am watching all the way from a small country named Bangladesh.. Love from Bangladesh.. MAD RESPECT for you and FANX for teaching us pure deceptive magic

[@DavidTobyTraylor]

35 years practicing magic/mentalism/card mechanics...dear universe, every time I start leaning from one of your tutorials, whether it’s from here, or as far back as the Dangerous release, perhaps longer: my old hands want to slap you into your trademark spin-to-floor.... Thank you for sharing your knowledge and for your patient instruction on this platform! Stay safe, say hi to Charlie for me....

[@rafachmura6800]

I've started to practice card tricks last year. I've enjoyed it, especially the people reaction, but after a mounth or two, I've dropped the idea and stopped learning, as I felt I wasn't good enough. But after I saw preview of this on your youtube channel, I knew it's time to get back. Thanks Daniel for motivation, your videoes were always huge inspiration.

[@leesharp8039]

Those that complain about the length of your magic tutorials have no appreciation for the theory, the subtleties, & the psychology that turn a card trick into true magic.

[@TheKidMajin]

"like spock... from Star wars" i love it

[@LEGITBOSSS]

Just posted on that 😤🤣

[@frenzy41]

I got a sleight Aggression when i Heard- that

[@edobalde4497]

Dan,you don't have to thanks us for staying with you and enjoying what you do for us. We have to thank you instead! Because you give us the chance to learn and to practice and love sleight of hand. So, as a great man said, from the bottom of my something, THANKS.

[@chanakyaliyanage2128]

Fankyou DM for teaching these magic tutorials.....most of them are super hard to nail but when I get them right it makes me super happy and just makes be wonder about my potential.....I performed a trick using the mad deck switch to bunch of my friends and they completely lost it...I would have never been able to have these skill if it wasn't for you.....fankyou very much DM Also hope Suzan recovers soon Lots of love

[@munib1998]

Chris Ramsay got me into magic where his tutorials were soo good and i always loved to know more and more about it but then he stopped for his better reasons and i was then searching for someone (and ik about the other good too cant deny that) who would keep captivating to watch videos with all the small details just like explaining to a friend, i truly found that from you! FANX MAN FOR IT! Recently finished reading Magic is Dead...man oh man its SOO DAMN GOOD to know more about you guys on very personal level! Fanx to giving away to the community soo much! Keep doing the great work!

[@divitratti]

No idea where my skills would be if daniel didnt teach. Thanks soo much for being the best teacher ever and making me a magician. Every video I see makes me insanely crazy that there is soo much creativity and perfection

[@NLT1734]

I really want to say, I truly appreciate the fact that you took the time to thank everyone who was still watching at the of the video. I felt appreciated that I watched all the way through. It really made me smile that you took the time to tell us, so I don't really care if I put a smile on your face, because you put a smile on mine. FANX

[@SergioPena20]

Thanks for helping me cope. When I got home from Afghanistan, I didn’t have much to do because my friends were either KIA or still overseas. I needed something to do, so I picked up magic. I’ve learned a lot from your Master Class and How To Cheat At Poker. Thank you for inspiring me to be a better person.
