Why am I a magician: Justin Willman at TEDxVeniceBeach
The Los Angeles Times calls magician and TV personality Justin Willman, "a new breed of entertainer." From his monthly sell-out shows in the back LA's trendy Meltdown Comics to huge theaters and music venues across the country, Justin has become one of the busiest touring performers in America. His comedy flavored miracles have earned him a devoted cult following as well as regular television appearances on The Ellen Degeneres Show and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Sweet-toothed frosting fans will recognize Justin as the magical host of Cupcake Wars on the Food Network for the past nine seasons, he's also the new host of Win, Lose or Draw, premiering in 2014 on the Disney Channel. However his greatest trick to date was receiving a standing ovation from President Obama following a private performance at the White House. How did he do it? Magnets. He does not own a rabbit.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Bless Netflix for introducing me to this guy. He's so fun to watch and his tricks are pretty cool. Nothing too fancy, just what I need lol
I don’t know why, but the monologue at the end hit me right in the feels.

i've seen a lot of people try to do 'deep' presentations for the gypsy thread trick. This is the only one that actually moved me. Nice one Justin. Great set.
The speech at the end, wow.
He is so fun to watch . his ending on this episode was a tear drop. Saw him in person and had me scratching my head... But it was fun to watch am remember... Love to see more
He is truly amazing...
I got teary eyed nice poem
I was wondering what was going to stop him from looking up into the cup after nothing came out. Oh, ok. You just take it from them real quick. 😂
I love how he used a basic trick (The empty soda can.) and made it interesting. Normally you don't see someone empty the soda can before the trick. I have an idea how he made it work, but it is clever, and cool to see someone take something so "mundane" (As far as magic tricks go its not an amazing one if you know how its done.) and make it interesting.

You"r a good man. Trying to figure out how you do your magic lead me to understand something important about life. Or should I say about our lives? It"s really not about figuring it all out at all. It"s about appreciating about whom we are and what we can give, what we got and the humor of what it brings no matter on how dark it feels, or what life brings us. This Magic is" In Spirit ion! "You're a good man. Thanks for where you come and how you're bringing it! Many Blessings Brother!!!
Love this trick. I know how it’s done, but it’s still a cool trick.
This is one of the best (if not the) Tedx Talks I've seen from a magician. Funny, interesting and a beautiful ending.

I love the sponge inside the cup
