Best magician ever. Ahead of his time.

This is probably my favourite video of Kaps on KZread.

Outstanding! Merci beaucoup from Paris France

Immense artiste

excellent.....from a class era in time..... .beautiful

My favourite magician ever. The Pope of Magic. One and only 3 times FISM champion. What a beautiful surprise to see this unknown video to me. Thanks for sharing!

I had never heard of Fred Kaps, till Ron Burgandy told me about his great skills.

Thanks for posting this man of superlative abilities. One can only imagine how many hours of practice with cards brought him to that amazing level of skill! One of the all-time greats!

RIP the GOAT. Simply a brilliant man.

No this is terrible. The music, the dress ... just painful. The first effect was just a spring cane. He ditches it in his pocket while getting the salt shaker. He ditches the salt shaker in his coat tails. And the card stuff. All front and back palm, split fan production etc. It's old fashioned and terrible. And the cigarette stuff, again terrible. Not setting a good example with the cancer risk.

Weltklasse

Terrific. Magic in its purest form

If we talk overall, THE BEST ONE that ever did it. There were better ppl with cards, better with coins, stage illusions, but best overall, the ones that dabbled in all kinds of magic, Fred Kaps is number one. And by far.

Nothing I've ever seen..beats this routine in its beauty and simplicity

In 1951, as a twelve year old aspiring magician, my Mom and Dad took me to a swanky Dinner/Night Club to see Fred. After his set the hostess took me to Fred's dressing room. Mom and Dad knew the owner and arranged the meet up. Fred was very gracious and encouraging. Years later I met him again at a magic convention. He actually remembered me because of the skill I had already developed as a twelve year old.

What i would give to see this live!!! Magic at its purest.

Absolutely classic. Thanks for sharing.

The best

Quel artiste ❤

Thanks for sharing

His most magic trick is his charismatic and flamboyant appearance.

Wow, an unknown video of the Dutch Master ! Extraordinary. Congratulations Christian ;-)

4:43 he flashed his back palm load.

The palming starting at 7:15 is beauty itself.

Thank you for this video!

I like the vanishing cane in the newspaper. I know how it's done. But still I say Fred Kaps is a very entertaining magician. Fred doesn't just come on stage and talk for two hours, (so to speak) Fred has a routine .

Awesome !!!

Magnifique ! Encore une leçon de magie par le grand Fred Kaps ! Wonderful ! An other magic lesson by the great Fred Kaps ! Quelqu'un connaitrait il le titre des musiques svp ? Does anyone know the name of the musics in the video please ? Merci / Thanks

Real master

Wow. I did not know "Gypsy Thread" trick was this old.

so beautiful :'(

Pat Page was banned from the Magic Circle for writing a book which exposed too much magic for too small a price. That's how it works. It's all about money.
