is magic real or is it all just entertainment?
I've been watching these magic video clips and its like all of them can be debunked, from blaine, to copperfield to even some of Cyril. Cyril has some hard tricks though. Criss angle is a joke. He has staged audiences etc and uses television for his tricks to look real.
So it seems like its all just illusions and entertainment.......Is there anything ever real? or was this back way back in the day

There was a magician on a cruise ship who figured, "Why keep changing my act? Every load of passengers is different and it will be a lot easier for me to keep the same one." So he started repeating his act.
Everything was fine until the captain's parrot started showing up at his performances. After one round of passengers, of course, the parrot starting acting up. Just as the magician was going to finish a trick, the parrot would speak up... "awwk, it's under the table" or "awwk... it's up his sleeve," which made everybody angry.
Then one day, the cruise ship encountered a furious storm and ended up sinking. Wouldn't you know it, the magacian and the parrot ended up on the same piece of floating wreckage. And after staring at each other for hours without a word, the parrot finally said, "awwk... okay I give up, what did you do with the boat?"

You're kidding, right? You believe in Santa and the Boogeyman too?
I just find it funny that with all these entertainment and fakes that theres gotta be a real person out there or something real maybe way back in the past who knows.
