I got the vid titled "second oldest trick" in my recommendations and now I'm here. He is truly a great showman. It's not just tricks, it's the delivery and his way of talking which is just amazing!

[@kolt9051]

Same! how funny! This is the 6th video Ive seen...I love his messages. That "the proposal" video made me cry! It was so nice of him to do that.

[@valmaglio]

Same for me, i'm now watching all of them, this man is amasing, probably the best magician i've seen, he is able to do his tricks and make you feel something others don't trigger. The story with the shoemaker and this one are probably the best magic tricks i've seen.

[@wolfmanhcc]

I am on the same train as you fellows.

[@tommyjames3105]

Same here! Incredible to watch!

[@konstantinosliatis7592]

That was the same video that got me going. It's just so fascinating, the showmanship of it all.

[@kovac2527]

He’s still liking comments three years after this was uploaded. What a legend

[@thespaceace5637]

Chris, I'm convinced you're the greatest magician I've ever seen after watching this. I was already impressed by your wit, humor, and whole presentation, but this right here just takes it to a whole other level. Your ability to tell a story and touch the audience emotionally is something I've never seen from a magician before. I've never really seen storytelling at all in a magic act before. You're not just saying "Look what I can do! Look at how good I am!" as many other magicians do. The stories in this video make your audience feel happy and at peace. The magicians that get the nods for TV shows have all the big flashy props, the "beautiful assistants," the danger, etc, but none of them have quite the impact that you do. Sure, they are skilled and entertaining, and many have done extremely complex and impressive tricks, but they don't have the full skill set you do. I've never seen someone with the ability to captivate and connect with people like you can. You don't need any extra fluff, because the real magic is you. I hope you never stop what you're doing and you never stop making people happy.

Sincerely, thank you.

This guy is such a legend!! 1. flawless magician 2. great storyteller 3. quick-witted 4. excellent sense of humor That's why I would not call him a magician. I'd say he is an awesome entertainer that happens to be able to pull off stunning magic tricks while performing. Can't stop watching his videos and I don't feel about it at all.

[@Heylon1313]

Hannibal deserves all the exposure he is getting lately and more, nothing but love for you Hannibal, keep it up!

[@connorsliter2179]

If you’ve watched a few seasons of Fool Us, this won’t fool you, but it will probably be the best trick you’ve seen.

[@MrGloryglorymanutd18]

This man is a true entertainer.

[@DexTag]

Usually 1-2 times a year I come back and re-watch all the videos. There are a lot of sides to magic or being a magician, but most are focused on making an impressive big show. While yours are also shows, you are not trying to make a big movie blockbuster, you are the kind of magician that wants to see the shine in childrens eyes, but those childrens are adults. The acts are always so nice, either humorous or with nice stories combined. It's what I would call the difference between working to showoff or working with your heart.

[@tbwpiper189]

Well done, Mr. H. I’ve watched this a number of times, some when I’ve not felt the best. But each time a smile comes to me when watching this little segment. Suddenly, from a 63 year old man I’m now a kid again, watching a magician in amazement as they do their magic and holding me in complete and utter wonderment. I’ve always been blessed by not caring how it’s done....simply that it is done. That to me is the magic...

[@oemfod1000]

That was not only magic, that was a journey. Back in time, and to where stories and memories began. Thank you sir.

[@johnvail1963]

Love this type of show one that makes you connect with not just the actor, magician, comedian, but with your past present and future self!

[@Nehji_Hann]

This guy shows that the best magicians don't need to master the most incredible skills to be considered great. Not that I'm saying he hasn't learned them. Hannibal, if you see this, you're my new favorite magician

[@TNTspaz]

He really takes his "Why stop there?" moto to heart

[@tek512]

This man's ability to weave a story is the real magic. The sleight of hand is just a bonus. I don't think anyone else in the business even gets close in that regard.

[@HannibalSpeaks]

Very kind words, I appreciate that.

[@bmdub]

This performance is a beautiful piece of art. Thank you for sharing something so touching.

[@tflo3482]

That was intensely moving. The magic was great but you made it something so much more special.

[@nETbKaH]

So I've watched a few of your videos, and I am absolutely taken by your storytelling talent, you are downright genius performer, and I wish you ever visited my homecountry on a tour... But I also finally figured out, why someone so amazing is so obscure. Your talent is personal. It's not a bright and shiny talent that cows and awes masses, not that popular type of performer, relying on baser instincts and nature. You, sir, craft memories. And that strikes true into the hearts of the audience, but also, it does not attract attention, nay, it does not even tries to attract it. It is a bittersweet feeling of nostalgia, a tale shared by the fire side, it is, yes, that elusive taste of summer, a dandelion wine. But just like a good bottle of wine, it can't be drunk by many. It is shared in a close company of good friends, but quickly watered down if given to many, for we are not gods. Not even sons. You have a talent that is reserved to a small stage, and as much as it pains me to admit it, you belong there. So I am left there, on the other side of the world, in the cold expanse of Russia, wishing to share one day a room with you. And knowing it is doubtful, resolving myself to instead create my own personal memories in a group of friends. You had just touched a random man through the years and miles. I had never quite appreciated the gift of Internet as I do it right now. All the best to you.

[@kacperroszczak6127]

he actually is pretty popular. The vid has 4 years...

[@Deci.]

@@kacperroszczak6127 compared to the other magicians that are in Vegas? He really isn't (at least among the public).

[@lukesaltsalter6111]

Out of absolutely nowhere, I balled up crying when that orange ice thing appeared.. you encapsulated "magic" more than anyone else I've ever seen

[@alitheretrokid]

I never knew a magic video could leave my eyes watering. Good job sir!

[@guillermolopez2673]

Man why am I binge watching every single one of your tricks and crying with every single one of them? These are so emotional

[@Robeebert]

Hannibal is the wizard we all think of when someone makes a magic caster in D&D

[@fyiaustralia9686]

There is something so mesmerising about Hannibal. I stumbled onto him two days ago watching Penn and Teller, then a magical trail opened up where I wandered from one video to the next...lockdown is doing some terrible but wonderful things like rekindling my desire for stories. So few of us have memories anymore - our lives are weirdly bound up inside our cellphones, and few of us still remember what it was like to just let yourself be drenched in someone else's words, to zone out of the world's woes for some little while. Thank you for the story Hannibal.

[@ConGie]

Wow, I wish I could just sit with this gentleman and hear the stories for hours, forget the magic.

[@swancrunch]

gosh, i love your stuff so much. this is the pure magic, the sense of wonder, the story, the humor.. some magicians break my brain while I try to figure out HOW they did what they did. you go straight for a soul and show exactly WHY you did what you did, and HOW becomes so tiny and irrelevant of a question in the face of magic... amazing stuff.

[@sitr2516]

I've never had a magic trick make me cry. This was beautiful.

[@CMarx-iq5gd]

I discovered him yesterday and I cant stop watching. really amazing performance.

[@TeknikHenrik]

Man when this pandemic calms down and I can visit the US I will try to catch one of your shows. They are very pleasing to watch as you manage to not speed trough them and yet be able to make them work!

[@staticofid6366]

This got me in tears, it's crazy how one person reminds me of all the fun things in my childhood and my love for so much stuff. That was wonderful.

[@lavenderlavender3952]

Ya know, a ton of magicians do magic, but I can say that you are the one and only magician who's work is truly magical. Thank you for making my day.

A couple of hours ago I found your channel. I do not know if you're gonna see this, I've been feeling down for a couple of years, rarely I find something that cheers me up, but your charisma, magic and comedy made me laugh for the first time in quite a while. I really hope you are good and away from any danger. You are incredible, talented, charismatic and seem like a wonderful person. Thank you very much mate and take care :)

[@jaredhissa5013]

I can't really put into words the impact that these performances have, but this one in particular hurts almost as much as it heals. Hannibal seems equal parts stranger and friend; he's captivating and genuine in a space that could easily lend itself to rote parlour tricks. I'm two days in but I recognize the need to space this out for both proper enjoyment and to respect the dedicated craft we get to see. Thank you Hannibal.

[@robschaffer2189]

You are an incredible storyteller and your sleight of hand is amazing. This was awesome!

[@salsatheone]

This is so wholesome, I cried a bit... Thank you, thank you very much.

[@Kookiebiskit]

When I was a little kid, I gobbled up magic tricks and learned how to do them myself. These days, I find that part of me has faded, and I simply enjoy the ride. You, sir, are a magician in the truest sense of the word; no sleight of hand or misdirection can conjure the magic you have mastered.

[@GummyBear556677]

year after year i come back to this one video of his reminds me of the times i spent with my grandfather many thanks

[@TheCheeseManGuy]

If you're still checking comments on this one, thought I'd contribute my appreciation. It's all in the delivery, and you know that delivery doesnt have to involve fireworks and fancy in order to be impactful... brilliant stuff.

Thank you!

[@yepuhuh93]

I love you Hannibal. You are so wonderful

[@lb9050]

The genius of his magic is that he’s taking age old techniques that we’ve seen done a million ways and he’s putting his own spin on it. The story and the showmanship is what makes the tricks feel amazing

[@j4ns3yhsg72]

You're breathtaking!

[@AboutOliver]

No, you're breathtaking!

It's always amazing when an audience member "does" the trick for the magician, but that was one of, if not the single, best use of that trope I've ever seen.

I have seen a lot of your videos and learned about your street days and how hard life was for you. The precision and accuracy with which you do the magic is a treat for the eyes and is a testament of the hard practice that you did to achieve this level of excellence. I am not sure if I can face my problems with consistency but I am definitely sure that your videos will continue to guide and inspire me. Thank you.
