In Spain we’ve seen Juan Tamariz on TV for decades. He’s sooooo funny, because not only he’s a magician, but a great actor. He’s the best card magician and the best entertainer, his tricks seem so simple and so impossible at the same time.

I saw him in person in the 90's in a friend's family reunion. Nicest famous person i've ever seen. He did the last trick in this video, but for like 3 minutes changing colors, numbers and in the end all cards were autographs and he gave one to my brother.

Tamariz is the best. The “air violin” he always uses at the end of his tricks has become a cultural thing in Spain and everybody knows where it comes from. I guess he was the person that made magic very approachable and relatable in my country. He had a very unique sense of humor and his mere presence brought a smile to your face. He is the GOAT

[@Old-Skull.]

thanks Chris for give the credit to Juan Tamariz that he deserves, I grew up with him in the early 80s, we kids love him more for his chaotic performance than the tricks, he was funny and too fast for kids, so we didn't have a chance more than surrender to this amazing and talented magician, applauding at the end with the invisible violin play. He always had a soft spot for kids.

I'm not really into magic now and I don't understand why this video was on my feed but I have seen the name of Juan Tamariz and I had to watch it. So many memories came to my mind about when I was a child watching him on TV with my family. Then I really liked magic because of him. His personality, entertaining and with that sense of humor, very chaotic but funny and kind at the same time. He's a really good storyteller, he knows how to catch everyone's attention with those stories that doesn't make magic boring just getting a card, he makes a story about seasons, about betting for a card, predicting future, always something different and fun to watch. That is entertaining. When we were kids we were always playing that imaginary violin he plays at the end of his tricks. I didn't know he was in English shows too. Happy to see him and have a laugh again with this video. Thank you for sharing 😊

In Spain Juan Tamariz is very well known and appreciated. I've been as espectator in one of his shows a couple of years ago. At one moment he was doing a trick with some cards. A camera was showing in a giant screen a very close view of his hands. He was moving the cards very very slowly. All of us saw how he, apparently, bypassed the card he should be moving (the one that he asked us to follow from the beginning and that we all thought we didn't miss from our sight at any moment) and moved another card instead. He stopped and said : "What? Do you think I bypassed this card? " and then proceed to show us the card...and it wasn't the one that everybody thought it was. He is a master at deceiving till the point that he has written books on how to control the audience. And it is known that the CIA has used some of his techniques. And he is also funny as Hell!

[@Arisaka99]

ChrisRamsay52 today you brought me into tears. I've been following your channel for so many years, and more recently you've brought up a lot of my favorite magicians from my childhood. But I would never, in my life, thought that I'd see a magician on your channel that I didn't recognize but at the same time would feel so much "that's him!!!!" kinda feeling. I know that I've seen a lot of things throughout my journey, he's always been around, but seeing this video got me so emotional because it's the exact video I was growing up with, without remembering seeing this video … until now! Holy cheese balls (!) what a wonderful experience! Thanks for letting the rest of the world know about señor Tamariz!

[@feikibio]

Here in Spain he is very loved. Nicest person, funny and a great master of masters. Been watching him since I was around ten years old, now I'm 45. Never got tired of his enternaining magic. Like you said, what a great pleasure.

[@LindseyMoon13]

"I believe in your magic." Actually made me emotional. What a great line. 1.) Because it's emotionally meaningful in itself, and 2.) There really does have to be a level of trust there, and he's acknowledging it- the brief connections made between magician and audiences are brief yes, but meaningful just the same.

[@daneeloo]

Tamariz is one of the best known magic theorists in the world, with his mnemonic deck. Perhaps Tamariz is not known by the public outside Spanish-speaking countries, but he is known among magicians all over the world, as if we were talking about Newton in Physics.

I grew up watching him on Spanish TV (this is actually the first I see him performing in basic English) and every time, including now, he cracks me into laughter. He is such a character, loved by so many, taught so many others. For me, he was pure golden comedy.

[@KiCkFLiPKiCkFLiP]

Juan Tamariz is an institution in Spain. Thank you for sharing him to the world nowadays

[@Motenai]

When I was very young, Tamariz prepared one of those weekly fascicles courses. I religiously went to the kiosk for more than 2 years so I could complete it fully. In it he taught the very principles of "magic", but also magic history, juggling, papyrus, magic psicology, misdirection... etc. I still have it downstairs. This was before the internet, and it was very detailed for the time. Many many years later I had the privilege of watching him perform live in a 90 minute close up routine, along with some othe magic that was not his forte but still performed convincingly. It was amazing. He is truly a living legend and her daughter is quite good as well. Jandro, who you might know for winning 4 times the Fool Us trophy from Penn & Teller, is probably the natural heir of his style. Good job as always, you brought good memories with this one :)

[@Trevorious2010]

I have been a practitioner of Card Magic for just over 21 years. I'm 35 and have not learned anything new in a decade. Now I'm rediscovering my passion for learning new material, refining my skills and connecting with people and I only just started watching Chris Ramsey but I really appreciate the hard work and passion that comes through these videos! Before today I have never heard of this Spanish magician and after only the first 2 tricks in the video, it's clear to me I have a LOT to learn. One question I have been wrestling with recently since taking magic up again is about personas. It's clear that Juan has an excellent persona while he preforms! I read somewhere that all the best magicians have a persona but I'm unsure of how to approach finding mine as for the last 21 years, I have truly been myself while preforming. I wasn't trying to be something I'm not. I'm genuine, funny, quick witted and kind. I'm worried if I start trying to make a persona now, I might come across as fake or trying too hard. And people Will pick up on that. How should I approach this?

[@mara_jade021]

I am not a magician. But have been watching Tamariz for decades on TV. for many 80s and 90s kids here in Spain he was a hero we watched with family weekly. he has been interviewed about that same topic maybe that can be interested for you.

The best and most impossible card magic I ever saw was when Juan Tamariz was surounded from magicians at a magicians conference and was improvising with all people around. Using their decks also... it was absolutly impossible what he did. Greatest cardmagician alive is a hardly to say. But probably yes.

A promise that something crazy and funny is going to happen. He was capable to make smile the childs and the grandma of every family. He was a genius but also a beloved caracter. And I pretty sure he can speak a better English, but he use thath jumpy accent and his limitations with the languaje as another tool. In Spanish he used to talk very quickly, make some games with words, invent some words for a trick, or produce confusion (for example, forgeting and confusing the names of the persons he was playin the trick at the table, but in a rescpectful and so funny way). Is nice to acces to this and find people who appreciate him, his crazy hair, and his invisible violin.

I think the level is perfect for someone like me, I am no magician but have a basic understanding of magic, and your videos perfect explain how the many levels, the performance, the psychology, the mechanics of the trick come together to create the perfect performance.

Juan Tamariz was a huge part of my childhood! I saw him on TV so often!

[@evilstars]

Thank you for remembering Juan Tamariz, bring us so many memories and laughs. All Spaniards's in the 80's grew up with him on tv. Pure magic!

[@dekkard79]

In the 80s and early 90s Tamariz had a lot of appearances in Spanish TV (btw there where only two national public channels + one regional public channe back then). I think both kids and adults were delighted by his genius.

I recommend another great magician from the old school, Arturo de Ascanio, if you don't know him take a look, you'll love it.

René Lavand called him the master of card magicians!

When you were explaining the psychology behind the intro trick, you literally walked through my mind as I was picking the card… unbelievable!

I love all your videos but these last ones are just incredible. I'm so lucky of being from Spain and my three favorite magicians are Juan, Dani Daortiz and Mario López and you just review their stuff in this month! I'm so happy these three crazy monsters of magic will reach a lot of people that may don't know them just thank to your videos, so thank you so much Chris, love all your work ❤

I grow up with Juan Tamariz, so proud you decided to bring to the channel, thanks so much my friend 🥰

I'll always remember when I was a kid on late 70's and earlier 80's how my sister and I were mesmerized and laughing out loud every time Juan was in the kids tv show. Genius.

really deep and entertaining, its really cool to see you still keep doing quality content after all these years in youtube

[@mrfelimedi]

Very good vid as always! Would love to have you chip in even more. I really like your input on everything and its always very entertaining to watch someone talk about a subject they are passionate about. Much love!

what a legend. Mr. Juan Tamariz. All 80s and 90s kids from Spain were in constant "WOOOOAAAH! :O"

[@Akymma]

Anybody who wants to be somebody in the world of magic should know about Master Tamariz. He was part of my childhood and my upbringing, he used to appear in a lot of shows here in Spain back in the day.

Juan Tamariz used to drop by the "Magia and Música" bar in Seville an hour before closing, often unannounced. It was a blast watching him do his thing live.
