The Life of Arthur Buckley (and the THROW Change)

[@BPendleburyMagic]

Your casual knowledge of magic astounds me.

[@Chronyql]

Thank you very much my good man. Hope you’re well

[@janneswessels9897]

This video is a perfect example why I love both this channel and Jeremy. He loves magic and those who influenced it and shares that with the rest of us. I feel like I should be paying for this kind of education.

[@Chronyql]

You, my good man, get whatever I have to offer, no payment necessary.

[@collinwolford7808]

Jeremy it's criminal how underrated you are. You are truly a fantastic magician

[@Alpysf]

The throw change is quite similar to a card mucking move. Your explanation and some subtleties that you used in the video (particularly with the positioning of the index finger right before the throw) really helped me make the throw more seamless without flashing during the muck. Thanks for the amazing video, Jeremy!❤️

[@Chronyql]

I’m glad it helped! You talking about a chop?

[@Alpysf]

@@Chronyql Yep. That’s the one. Though I mainly know it as double down muck

[@cmamagic]

I love it when you tell stories and teach moves at the same time. It gives a lot more meaning behind whatever you're learning. It makes the learning process not as bland.

[@Chronyql]

Thank you. I’m hoping to keep that style up

[@DougConn]

Such a GREAT Video! Wonderful history & your touches on the throw change are outstanding! Thanks for sharing!

[@Chronyql]

Thank you so much Doug. I got to watch your interview with the boys and it was great!

[@TUFRIDEGPGT]

You're extremely profound in the way you naturally speak. You don't talk like any other magician out there. All this stuff clearly rolls off the top of your head. When you said your first copy fell apart from reading it too much I didn't hesitate for a second to believe that with so much ease. You clearly are super intelligent and a huge asset not just to the magic community but, to humanity. You're borderline a guru in my eyes. I just wish I knew about you like 10 years ago. I feel like I missed out on so much already that I could've learned from a person like you. Stay fresh and stay you because no one else can. There's only one Jeremy Griffith. P.S. You'd be great for a 3 hour Joe Rogan Experience Podcast. Trust me, I've watched all of them. Almost 1700 to date.

[@Chronyql]

Wow! That’s some seriously high praise! Thank you!

It’s only after all the editing and posting that I’m starting to recognize how many weird things I have a tendency to say 😳🤦🏼

[@barryessam4731]

I absolutely love it when you tell of the history behind the person & book.thank you sir.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@edwinscheibner4733]

Thank you for the history of Arthur Buckley and for sharing your detailed handling of the throw. I like the mixture of tempered buoyant enthusiasm and Zen-like meditative state of your presentation. It maintains my interest in learning without exhausting me. I look forward to the next one.

[@Chronyql]

Edwin, I am clearly not the only one who has a way with words, you’re right up there with me. Thank you so much, both for the kind comment and taking the time to watch my videos. I appreciate it

[@willtruth2462]

I'm properly stoked, you are THE guy I've been wanting to arrive on KZbin and your vids are exceeding my already high expectations. Your knowledge is amazing and you explain it all really well. Thanks for sharing!

[@Chronyql]

I’m really glad you’re enjoying my channel. Any subjects you’re hoping to hear about?

[@willtruth2462]

@@Chronyql Really tough question, hard not to just say everything. As a novice I've barely touched on lapping as yet so I would love to hear some of your thoughts on that aimed at a complete beginner. On your vid about the squeeze you mentioned your love of stealing cards from the deck, I also have this so would very much appreciate if you did a vid on stealing a card from any angle/position kind of thing. Then everything else you can think of. Oh and more history lessons please. Thanks!

[@brainbowfright]

Jeremy I LOVE your channel. It is so great to see you in long form. I am an AMATEUR at best, but I always feel better educated after each and every one of you uploads. Thanks man!

[@Chronyql]

Thank you for investing your time on my videos. I appreciate it

[@acevadoul1203]

Your videos are the literally the best for card magic, teach something and also sending people in the right direction for the books on other techniques and sleights....helped me out no end already! Thankyou!

[@Chronyql]

That’s awesome! I’m glad they’ve been so helpful for you. Are there any subjects you’d suggest in the future?

[@acevadoul1203]

@@Chronyql just whatever you think you should do really....The crimp and jog was something I always overlooked and after your videos on them I went back and worked on them as didn’t realise how actual useful they are and now I use them both so much.... so anything you think people tend to overlook or feel that people should know

[@durev]

Super interesting presentation of Buckley, and you took that Throw change to a whole new level!

[@Chronyql]

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it

[@hichembetiche4535]

the best KZbin channel ever for me 💜 keep going ma man

[@Chronyql]

Thank you Bro. I appreciate it

[@XavierEMagic]

I’m very glad you are showing this book and magic in general such respect and admiration. Thank you for that, Jeremy. Can’t wait to see what other books you share with us.

[@Chronyql]

Hey there. Thank you. Are there any books you’ve really enjoyed reading?

[@XavierEMagic]

@@Chronyql There’s so many, I’d lose count. I’ve actually gone back to some of the ones that got me started. One of my most favorites is Counts, Cuts, Moves and Subtlety by Jerry Mentzer. That book taught me the importance of sleights as they build arsenals. I also learned how important it is the practice sleights and practice them intensely.

[@BarryAllenMagic]

This change was a favorite move of Matt Schulien I believe - albeit he had hands like shovels and could pull off the Buckley version brilliantly by all accounts. Suffice to say, you do need decent sized mitts to perform this change convincingly - I'd never get away with it. The Buckley book has flown under the radar for so many years - I truly don't know why. The same could be said for the Card Manipulation/More Card Manipulations Series by Jean Hugard. Finally, your original touches in getting this move to work for you, are to be applauded. Well done mate! 👍

[@fiddlinjonny]

Thanks Jeremy, this was a great history of Arthur Buckley that I was not aware of. I appreciate you sharing this knowledge.

[@Chronyql]

Thanks for taking the time to watch it. I appreciate it

[@delgadomarksteven696]

You're very knowledgeable in magic and i see why other magicians respected you like Chris Ramsay, honestly after watching the very first video of yours that pop up in my recommendation i didn't hesitate to subscribe coz i know you could really help a lot in molding the students of magic/sleight of hand of this generation, Thank you sir.

[@delgadomarksteven696]

I really want to improve in this art and youtube is my only major source on learning sleights, i just want to express my gratitude that you are here sir.

[@Matt-lt3iy]

I love your storytelling. Thanks for putting so much effort into this endeavor.

[@kalvinhepple5975]

I will be brutally honest,I couldn’t even understand the very first sleight,the strip!To say the book is tough is an understatement!!!Kudos to all those that can decipher the data and produce the relevant correct outcomes.It was a brilliant rendition of the guy though and very entertaining.Thanks.

[@marcmaret7627]

Another excellent video! I love your touches on the throw change, which I think I originally encountered through Eddie Fechter’s work. The info about Buckley is killer as well. Keep crushin’, man!

[@Chronyql]

Thank you! Do you happen to remember which of Eddie’s things it was that you got your change from?

[@marcmaret7627]

@@Chronyql Yes, it was “I’ve Got a Surprise for You.”

[@Chronyql]

Thank you for the reference

[@brain76]

Thank you so much for everything you do here! It's great learning about the history and theory of magic.

[@Chronyql]

Oh, I promise you the please is mine. Thank you

[@thewildwestgamblingshow8768]

Enjoyed that a lot 🙏 Tough not to flash, but yours looks excellent. Saw Bill Malone do it and then Xavier Spade showed me what it was and how to do it. Have a couple of variations of the move now.

[@mrcactusmanfuntimes]

Terrific talk. I've had Buckley's book on my list for sometime, but it always got bumped. Now knowing background on him pops it up that list! Once the magic shop is open after lockdown (I'm in Toronto ☹️) I'll grab it. Saw you at UnConventional! And a pickpocket I know speaks highly of you! Keep up the great work!

[@Chronyql]

Hey I think I know that pickpocket! Thank you for coming by to check out my work. I really appreciate it.

[@GabrielZudeck]

[@Chronyql]

Thank you Josh. That’s very kind of you

[@bighands675]

Thanks for sharing this I hate reading books but love visual learning

[@terryterrell5267]

I learned about the throw change from Dave Cresey (mouth coils). He used a wide swinging motion when releasing the card and going to the deck. Your version makes more sense and has better misdirection.

[@Chronyql]

Thank you very much!

[@johnvaughn385]

Love this kind of video! Excellent work.

[@Chronyql]

Thank you very much!

[@MikeWallaceDev]

I think... I think that throw change is the best magic trick I've ever seen. Laying that double lift on the table totally threw me off. Then when you were explaining the trick and slid your double lift on the table, my jaw fell. You, sir, have medicine balls in your pants. #HTA ;-)

[@palomab.8211]

AMAZING TIPS FRIEND😀😍😍you’re awesome!

[@paulhamj6175]

Wow! (I just realised, before I even write my comment.. I think that every comment I ever write on one of your videos is going to begin with the word "wow!". Hehe. OK, carrying on..!) This was so interesting! I have that same dover edition and I have to be honest, there's barely anythjng I have learned from it yet. I find it a real difficult one! I am new to magic by 2 years and still working through rrtcm and -of course- erdnase. I love those two books and feel that I should be able to do most things in them both before ever moving on from there. I doubt I will ever stop reading erdnase as there's something new every time I pick it up. The Royal Road, on the other hand, isn't so much difficult or seeming to have new things to tackle upon every read, nah, it is more about the fact that I feel I should be able to complete every task in that book or I Daren't call myself any kind of card magician! So I endeavour to keep on reading it ...for years if need be. I am not sure what my point was originally but I wil just stop here, having shared a little back to you. Thanks for such fascinating videos my friend, you are now the most interesting creator on KZbin for me.

You are the best, wish you had this KZbin channel when I statrted out.

[@Chronyql]

Thank you. I know I’m a bit late to this party, but I’m gonna do my best to make up for it

[@raykwon7]

This book has an Erdnase-like ratio of physical size to richness of content!!

[@Chronyql]

Couldn’t agree more!

[@BarryAllenMagic]

To be honest, the wealth of material within Card Control leaves Erdnase's EATCT standing (as does Expert Card Technique). Maybe it's just me - but I truly believe EATCT to be very overrated.....despite what Dai Vernon and the modern-day sychphants say about it. Over the years, whenever I've had people telling me how wonderful it is, I've asked them to show me something from it. Only on a few occasions has this been taken up - and it's always the Erdnase Card Change (albeit I believe it was actually Houdini's).

[@SuperTrickcard]

​@@BarryAllenMagicMoje zdanie na temat EATCT jest takie że jest to książka wybitna ale tylko jeśli chodzi o ruchy związane z hazardem. Fakt jest w niej kilka sztuczek ale to nie jest książka ukierunkowana na typowo magiczne sztuczki. Fakt że Dai Vernon dużo o niej mówił , ale trzeba wziąść pod uwagę że w tamtych czasach nie miał za dużego wyboru jeśli chodzi o książki. Na tamte czasy to pewnie była jedna z lepszych pozycji ale dziś mamy o wiele lepsze materiały tym bardziej jeśli chodzi o różnorodność sztuczek np "Card Colege" a nawet starsza książka o nazwie "Scarne on Card Tricks".

[@anthonytmein]

3:00 - I’m sorry did you just say “wonder kid?” 😂 it’s “VOON-der-kint” Love your stuff, you’re a card sharp!

[@Chronyql]

Okay, hear me out: “Wunder” translates to wonder, “kind” translates to child. So I mean, like I can’t be that wrong about this, despite what Ted Lasso would have us believe

[@ColinUnderwood]

Bill Malone performs a similar move on " On the loose" series.

[@shannonsmith1520]

Bravo ♥️♥️♥️

[@brainbowfright]

Sorry for the second message. I bought this book quite a while ago(yes from Amazon), and it is a bit overwhelming, which is a good and bad thing. Would you be so kind as to recommend a few chapters or sections that an amateur like myself might be able to handle? Thanks again.

[@Chronyql]

Honestly, if you’re still working your way through the harder sleights, the final chapter is a great place to get routine ideas, and in many case, you can adapt the handling to whatever you’re comfortable with

[@brandonlee7006]

You're a very talented magician and I fully respect your skills. I've been doing magic for years and at one point was performing at international magic close up competition. I've got to be honest, when the Internet started and every magician started giving all there secrets away I totally lost heart with the whole art. I still do tricks and fool people but why bother. I'm disappointed with how it is. So is Jerry Sadowitz. You won't see him giving anything away on KZbin. Juan Tamaritz won't explain much. I think close up is finished. Sorry to be so miserable but I suppose that's evolution.
