Street Magic. All episodes of "Street Magic" voiced by Bocharik

home David Blaine (Street Magic)

is an American street illusionist who became widely known in RuNet after the parodies of comedian Mitch Silpa, translated by Andrei Bocharov. As a result of this voiceover, memes such as “My feet in my mouth” and “Fuck my brain” appeared.

Origin

David Blaine began performing "street magic" in 1997. It is believed that it was he who invented this term, but this is not certain. The illusionist began with various tricks that he showed to passers-by. Then he was called to television, where he became popular.

Blaine was not known on the RuNet until 2008, when a certain Mitch Silpa and his assistants began making parodies of him. For the first time, Andrey Bocharov or Bocharik, a participant in the television projects “O.(.P.-Studio”, “33 sq.m.”, etc., spoke about these videos in his LiveJournal blog. He re-voiced one of the parts of the original video and published the videos on the Internet The translated versions instantly spread across the Internet, generating memes and catchphrases.

Mitch Silpa is an American screenwriter and actor who has starred in the television series Desperate Housewives, I'm With Her, One on One, and Reno 911. The Blaine parodies featured actors Mickey Day and Michael Naughton, playing the guys Silpa terrorizes with his “magic.”

Since Silpa portrayed Blaine, all his parodies were distributed on the Internet under the name of a real magician. As a result, the caricature image eclipsed the original, and many began to think that humorous sketches were Blaine's real tricks.

As for the “magic” itself in parody videos, this is not magic at all, but quite cheap tricks available to every novice magician. The whole point lies in Silpa-Blaine’s unique presentation and his signature trick - looking into the camera with bulging eyes, with which he seems to say: “Look what I can do.” Well, of course, for the Russian audience these tricks are associated exclusively with Bocharik’s voice acting and the phrases he invented, which everyone now knows.

Meaning

The memes “Fuck my feet” and “Fuck my brain” are euphemisms for any obscene phrase-surprise (be it “Fuck!”, “Fuck my dick,” “Fuck my dick,” etc.).

"Blaine's" googly-eyed face also became a meme. Most often, it is photoshopped somewhere on the edge of a picture, photo or screenshot to show that some kind of “street magic” is happening there.

The first three issues are considered classic. Each one starts the same way. Silpa approaches supposedly random guys and says: “Yeah, these guys. Want some street magic? Guys always say no because they know "Blaine" is going to start doing crazy things. This is what happens.

David Blaine now

The real David Blaine has not disappeared. As of 2017, he is one of the most sought-after illusionists. Released in 2013 documentary based on Blaine's delusions called David Blaine. Reality or magic.

He continues to act in original shows on television and goes on tours with his acts. Periodically appears in media chronicles. For example, in January 2017 he accidentally shot mouth, trying to catch a bullet with it. But the parodist, unfortunately, was forgotten.

Heroes

Street Magic- a very unusual, special combat skill. It is so terrible that the hero who uses this skill can sometimes be mistaken for the notorious monster David "No-no-no" Blaine. The damage radius is about 5 meters. One use can permanently kill a couple of weak monsters and immobilize at least one strong one (for example, Godville Administrator or Soviet Mentality).

Story

Lemuriformes or common lemur. Considered the founder of “street magic.”

There is an opinion that the heroes adopted this terrifying technique from the monster David “No-no-no” Blaine, who until recently was considered his ancestor. However, in fact, the history of street magic goes back to the distant past. More recently, the monster itself was discovered to be a mutated descendant of Lemuriformes, or lemurs. This is confirmed by many morphological characteristics, such as large eyes, the structure of the ear area and the blood supply to the head. The bug-eyed animals developed a street magic technique to ward off predators, which David "No-No-No" Blaine perfected and first used to attack people.

For the first time this skill was adapted to the heroic organism unknown hero, presumably high level. Having taught several padawans this technique, he disappeared into the Godville Mountains, and since then no one knows anything about him, and his students, out of joy, even forgot his name. Thus, transmitted through heroic training, street magic has spread so much that almost every 4th hero already owns it.

Application

The initial stage - the hero forms a center of “ki” energy in the center of the bridge of the nose.

The final stage - energy bursts out in mega waves through all the cracks of the hero's body, demolishing everything in its path.

In order to use this skill, the hero must concentrate all his “ki” energy in one chakra and direct it to the center of the bridge of the nose, from where, through the eyes, the energy bursts out in powerful waves, demolishing everything in its path. Besides psychological impact, significant physical damage is inflicted (depending on the strength and endurance of the enemy, as well as how wide the hero opens his eyes). Particularly impressionable ones shrink in place, others let out puddles of orange soda, but this rarely happens.

This skill works great in battles with monsters of weak and medium levels: with one use you can remove from half to 80% of the enemy’s life, and sometimes even lead to death.

Particularly strong monsters are also deprived of any immunity against this skill, but the damage in battles with them is not so great. However, this technique is undoubtedly more effective than conventional strikes.

The damage caused to other heroes, according to some estimates, ranges from 20 to 50 HP, depending on the level of the enemy and the degree of development of the skill itself.

However, this skill should be used with extreme caution.

Contraindications for use

According to as yet unverified data, as a result of frequent use of street magic, vision can be severely impaired, as a result of which the hero can be prematurely overtaken by heroic blindness, for which, as we know, there is no cure. In addition, requiring a large number of Energy skill causes weakness and malaise after 4-6 uses, and therefore the hero begins to feel an urgent need for healers of various stripes.

Additional Information

The name of the magic itself implies its use in a street setting, however, the residual energies of its use were noticed at a considerable distance from Godville (up to 350 pillars). There are several quite reasonable explanations for this phenomenon.

  • The entire area of ​​Godville was originally divided into streets. Despite the fact that this marking exists only in the imagination of the ancestors of the demiurges, this virtual representation is sufficient for the completely normal use of street magic outside of cities and towns.
  • Street magic is evolving, gradually becoming less urban and closer to nature. Presumably, the next stage of evolution will be “tract magic”, “country magic” or “path magic”.
  • While using magic, the hero creates a temporal segment of the street for a very short period of time, which allows him to complete the spell he has started. Some people believe that the gingerbread house is side effect temporal street.
  • There is also an unconventional use of this skill. The hero, having hit the enemy, can take part of his health.

Street Magic

Still from the second part. Showcasing the signature look of pseudo-David Blaine.

"David Blaine's Street Magic: YoúTúbe Version" (English David Blaine street magic: YouTube edition ) - a series of videos parodying the “street magic” of an illusionist David Blaine. In parodies Mitch Silpa plays the role of David Blaine, and actors Mickey Day and Michael Naughton (who are the creators of the series) portray Evan Ferguson ( English Evan Ferguson) and Peter Peszynski ( English Peter Peszynski), a couple of simple guys to whom Blaine demonstrates his magic and thereby causes a lot of shocking inconvenience. The series is very popular on the 2007 comedy. Andrey Bocharov translated all six episodes, which led to the second wave of typical Runet internet memes.

Subjects

Part one

The first part of this series introduces David Blaine, Evan and Peter. Silpa's resemblance to the real David Blaine is deliberately degraded; His facial hair is depicted using a felt marker. Blaine approaches Evan and Peter and asks them if they would like to participate in his magic tricks. At first they are eager, but when they realize that Blaine plays all his tricks on them and their things, causing them inconvenience and ruining things (for example, Evan's documents and cellular telephone Peter), they are trying to make him stop. Then Blaine has Peter hold up a sign with text written on it, and Evan, without looking at the sign, reads out the entire text. Evan and Peter are shocked and faint.

Part two

This sequel begins the same way as the first part: Blaine asks Evan and Peter if they would like to participate in his street magic. This time they refuse and try to leave. Despite this, Blaine terrorizes them with various magic tricks, culminating in Peter "peeing himself on Orange Soda." It was after this part of the parody that the expressions “put your feet in my mouth”, “no-no-no-no” and others became popular on the Russian-language Internet.

Part three

The third part of the series begins in much the same way as the second, only this time Evan and Peter threaten to call the police, demanding that a report be filed against David Blaine. Before the police arrive, Blaine confiscates Evan's car and all its contents and sends him back in time to the era of dinosaurs. When the policeman appears, he writes down Evan and Peter's names, and then the camera pans to the policeman's direction. The camera returns to focus as the officer walks away, replaced by David Blaine in a police uniform. Evan and Peter are scared by this and leave.

Unofficial stories

There are unofficial additions to this series, which ThoseLilRabbits had no connection to, but were instead produced by a French multimedia company that hired Silpa, Day, and Naughton to star in them.

Part four

The first unofficial story, sometimes called "David Blaine's Street Magic: Part Four" ( English David Blaine Street Magic: Part Four ), begins exactly the same as the previous ones, not counting the French subtitles. David Blaine once again forces Evan and Peter to experience the full power of his magic: he "washes" Evan into a tree, stuffs tea bags into Evan and Peter's mouths, turns his friends' vegetarian food into pork, and to top it all off, makes Evan and Peter all the clothes were missing. Then Zauza suddenly appears ( English ZaoOoza) - a new character, a more powerful dark-skinned magician - and overpowers David Blaine, causing the appearance of tattoos on his right buttock, after which Blaine joins Evan and Peter in escaping Zausa.

Part five

Second unofficial story, "David Blaine's Street Magic: Part Five" ( English David Blaine Street Magic: Part Five ), begins the same way as the fourth, and also with French subtitles. This time Peter can't find his watch and later notices it hanging from his fishing rod. After messing up Evan and Peter's hair, David Blaine discovers that his hair is also very tangled. Zauza appears, demanding obedience. Next, Evan, Peter and David Blaine are forced to dance brakedance with a kangaroo that Zauza conjured from scratch.

Part six

The third unofficial plot differs in style from the previous ones. It is a set of skits about how Blaine uses his magic to make objects do what they already do. Commands the skater's skating from one side to the other, controls the boy's dance, rotates the already working " Ferris wheel”, and also does a lot of other things that don’t require any magic, since everything works on its own. The plot ends with Blaine “making” the pigeons fly out of the park into the sky, after which Zauza appears (and his appearance is always a kaput for Blaine) and performs his miracle, as a result of which Blaine ends up covered in bird droppings.

Popularity

The videos are replete with original jokes, many of which later became quotable. Phrases from Bocharov’s translation such as “ Feet in my mouth!", "I'm cheating!", "COOKIES!" And " Fuck my brain!"became the most popular internet memes.
