Dai Vernon is one of the most influential magicians in history. Every magician in the world uses effects of subtleties created by Vernon. He revolutionized magic and made it modern and personal. His passion and love for the art of magic was amazing and his creativity and talent inspired many contemporary stars of magic.

In this video I explain how Vernon became one the most respected magicians in the world, how he fooled Harry Houdini, what was his main source of inspiration and what is the legendary Vernon Touch.

Do you perform any effects created by the Professor? Has Vernon´s philosophy influenced your approach to magic? Share your thoughts in the comments.

If you like this video, feel free to share it with you magic friends and colleagues. I believe that spreading knowledge about the history of magic can help magicians become better and be more passionate about this amazing art.
