Help with simple card technique

how many magicians can properly sit in a box above the River Thames and crap in garbage bag?

How many magicians can be properly forzen in a block of ice in Times Square?

Of couse I don't know anyone who want to.
 
At the risk of embarrassing myself, here are a couple of the DLs I use most often. Note the big "get ready" on the second one! The third one, the aerial DL, is just silly. I only do it for magicians.

The one thing I like to do when doing the DL is to make the card snap. I think the sound enhances the move to make it more deceptive. Unfortunately, my little web cam mic doesn't capture the sound accurately, so on the video it sounds a bit strange. I discovered something about that sound many years ago when I was working close up in very loud rock and roll bars: Even with music playing so loudly my patter couldn't be heard if I screamed it at the top of my lungs, that snap sound could still be heard clearly.
