Lennart Green - International Close Up Magic Competition (Ron MacMillan) - 1988
Ойын-сауық
This video has been ripped from an almost 30 years old VHS, so it's a medium quality.
If you like the work of Lennart, this routine is just the top of the top.
It's the same routine he made at 1988's FISM, and again in 1991. For the little story if you don't already know it :
"Green competed at the 1988 FISM convention in The Hague, Netherlands, and was erroneously disqualified because the judges believed he had used stooges in his act to shuffle the cards. In 1991, he performed the same act but insisted that the judges themselves shuffle the cards to prove that he used no stooges. The judges then awarded him first place." (source Wikipedia)

His handling of the cards is possibly the most impressive thing ever 👏 He makes it look so sloppy yet so dang good lol
This is one of the most incredible routines I’ve ever seen; amazing!
I believe that he was performing in from of some of the best magicians ....in the world. And they loved it. That is impressive. I used to juggle and there was a European Juggling convention and saw a guy named Michel who was juggling for the Circus Krone, who were performing in the same town. He is a fast juggler and does the opening act. Most people don't appreciate how hard juggling is so his act gets tepid applause. He agreed to perform at our talent show, but he was rather blasé and not excited. But when he started his act, he got applause for his amazing talents. When he did 5 clubs behind the back, there was instant applause which he never got when the public saw him and you could see his mood change. And he came out for several encores and even had a tear in his eye when he went off the stage. When you can impress your peers, that shows your real talents.

Where /when was that juggling convention? I attended a few in the 90’s. EJA Hagen?
Still the best of all time in my opinion. Not just for his skill, but presentation and ‘psychology’ lmao
That's crazy! I know enough about magic to catch about 80% of trickery that I see, but this is crazy.
I swear he takes the most pride in his ditches. so quick and effortless and with barely the twitch of a knuckle.

He is the inventor of that "ditch", it is now a classical move, but I have to say, nobody does it like him.
I watched this trick a hundred times and every time it amazed me.
The video quality might be "medium", the performance is beyond and above perfect quality! Never get tired of watching Lennart Green!
Fantastic! One of the best Lennart performance!
The way he handles those cards...you'd have to change to a new deck after each routine
I was in the room when he did this.kennedy international hotel euston london. Nobody at that time had seen those techniques using steranko palm. Cross yourself when you say his name....the man is A GOD !!!!!!

His "bad" english is part of his comedy, he uses it to purposely say strange funny things during the performances... But his english is decent if he wants it to be.

Can you be more precise please. Do you mean the first techniques he used, the shuffles ?

Do you have a link to share? In the 90's it took me a month or two to completely rebuild this routine, I'm curious to see if we have the same result in the end.
