The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. The Ed Sullivan Show is well known for bringing rock n' roll music to the forefront of American culture through acts like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. It also frequently featured stars of Motown such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder and The Jackson 5. The Ed Sullivan Show was one of the only places on American television where such a wide variety of popular culture was showcased and its legacy lives on to this day.

I have watched this several times since it was posted. Fred Kaps had a wonderful routine, his banter, his smile, his conversation was perfect. It is wonderful to watch.

I actually don't like Fred Kaps aka as Bram Bongers. I think his patter was a little bit racist. All this talk about Chinamen being happy. And red in China is the colour of money. He had not even studied the subject and was lying about their culture. Nevermind though. I have published a tutorial on how this trick works in another comment if you want to make one.

I’m recently getting way more entertained by watching Ed Sullivan, Dick Cavett and Johnny Carson than most of today’s late shows.

Fred Kaps was a Dutch magician.

His real name was Bram Bongers, but he was so embarrassed to have Bongers as a stage name, he changed it to Kaps.

@@naomibrooker9923 Fed Kaps real name was Bram Bongers. His magic was quite dated and unoriginal. I actually really preferred Channing to Bram Bongers. Channing was very refreshing and original. He didn't steal stuff like Bram did.

56 weeks later, Fred had the unfortunate duty to follow the Beatles first appearance. He did card tricks for three minutes as the girls continued screaming and carrying on.

@@magicelliotth Seems like our PE friend is jealous of Fred Kaps. Fred was famous for decades and appeared on numerous international television shows and the top nightclubs in the world. Wouldn't call that "hopeless." Highly skilled performer, hence his worldwide fame. Some humans are funny when they're anonymous online. LOL!

@@jandjmagic4361 There is a weight inside the stick. The string is threaded through the weight. He can pull the string up on the same stick, but he can also tilt the stick upwards and the weight drops to the back of the stick in a channel also pulling the tassle up. You will notice, every time the tassle goes up when he pulls down on the other stick, he also tilts the original stick upwards, so the weight drops and pulls up the tassle.

@@PreservationEnthusiast I don't need you to explain how the Chinese sticks work to me, I already know that. Which is why I told the OP that they guessed wrong. Also it's kinda rude to reveal how a trick is done for people who didn't ask for a reveal...I know how hundreds of tricks are done, but you don't see me going on videos and revealing them.
