What are the Different Types of Magic Tricks?
There are literally thousands of different magic tricks being performed daily, and many magicians work very hard to create new ones. While it would be a challenge to list all of these individual magic tricks, almost all of them share a few common mechanisms or techniques. By studying these basic forms of magic tricks, one might be able to figure out how a major illusion or escape is accomplished. Many times, the secret to magic tricks is not in the mechanism or technique itself, but in the showmanship of the performer and his or her manipulation of the audience.
