FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

21 Year Old Illusionist Sammy Cortino Sets World Record; Is Guinness Bound

(HICKORY, North Carolina — August 10, 2010) Sammy Cortino may join the likes of Guinness World Record holder David Copperfield as he submits his successful world record attempt claim to Guinness World Records for verification. At Hickory City Hall on Friday, the Appalachian State Broadcast Major executed his challenge, “Synthesis”, an unprecedented fusion of Harry Houdini’s early sleight of hand work presented in the style of the mystifying stunts that later brought the illusionist international notoriety. In this challenge, Cortino set the world record for the fastest blindfolded and ambidextrous card manipulations. In 90 seconds, the illusionist manipulated (performed sleight of hand with) 304 cards, which is 6 decks of standard playing cards stacked at 4.5”. Ambidextrous card manipulations using Sammy’s technique is extremely rare and difficult. Following communication with a Guinness spokesperson, the Hickory Daily Record reported, ”The Guinness Book of World records doesn’t have a category for playing card manipulation, so no such record exists.”

Sammy trained over 60 hours for this 90-second attempt, which was emceed and judged by Hickory mayor Rudy Wright. “I wanted to make sure I performed this live in front of an audience in real time and that this wasn’t done strictly on tape.” Cortino said, aware of the importance of believability in magic. The attempt was streamed live on Cortino’s Facebook Page so people worldwide could be part of magic history.

What’s next for Cortino? “I’m launching off!” he exclaimed. In his last year in school, Sammy is actively sending tapes to national talk shows and networking with agents in an effort to share his vision of magic worldwide.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

21 Year Old Illusionist Sammy Cortino To Set World Record Houdini Fashion This Friday

(HICKORY, North Carolina — August 3, 2010) In a lightning-fast attempt to set a world record at his public press conference to be held this Friday, August 6, 2:00PM at Hickory City Hall, Magic’s Royal Duke Sammy Cortino will execute his challenge, “Synthesis”, an unprecedented fusion of Harry Houdini’s early sleight of hand work presented in the style of the mystifying stunts that later brought the illusionist international notoriety. In this challenge, the Appalachian State Broadcast major will set the world record for magically producing (manipulating) the most playing cards in 90 seconds: 300, which is 6 decks of standard playing cards stacked at 4.5”. To increase the difficulty, the illusionist will be blindfolded and manipulate cards with both hands. In Cortino’s research, there is no record of any illusionist in history attempting such a feat this difficult. The record attempt will take place at the Julian G. Whitener Municipal Building (City Hall) in downtown Hickory, NC August 6 at 2:00PM, doors open at 1:30PM. Following this feat, he will be submitting the stunt to Guinness to be verified. At this event the illusionist, who is about to start his last year at ASU, may make a big announcement.

Sammy has trained over 60 hours for this 90-second attempt. Cortino says, “Houdini started performing sleight of hand as the ‘King of Cards’, before focusing on escapes. Taking Houdini’s card manipulations and presenting it as a challenge like his later work fuses the ends of his career into one presentation.”

Officiating the attempt will be Hickory Mayor Rudy Wright. The event will be streamed live on Cortino’s Facebook Page so fans worldwide can be part of this historic magic event. To see the record attempt’s stream channel, visit the Official Sammy Cortino Website: SammyCortino.com

“Synthesis”: Friday, August 6. 2:00PM. Doors open 1:30PM. Admission is free. Julian G. Whitener Municipal Building (City Hall) Lobby. 76 N. Center Street, Hickory, NC 28601.
