Hi all, the other day I came across the following video (sorry it’s in Spanish, I provided a description below). I really loved the effect and was wondering if anybody knows how it works or where it was published. I tried searching but I don’t even know what’s the name of this effect (in case is a popular one).

Thanks in advance.

For anyone who doesn’t speak Spanish - The magician talks about a blind man that approached the table and prompted him to follow his instructions: he cuts the deck in three piles, takes an apparently random amount of cards from each the external two packets, turns them over and exchanges the face up cards between them (more clear in the video). Shuffles the external packs. Puts the deck back together, and finally splits the deck in half turning over one of the halves and mixing the packs together. At the end the magician reveals that the blind man, against the impossibility of knowing how many cards will be face up after all the random turn overs, puts the hand on top and told him there will be 25 cards facing up. Upon checking, there are indeed 25 face up cards.

If anyone can point me in the direction of the 5 of hearts reveal in this video, I'd be eternally grateful!

I saw Penn & Teller a few weeks ago, and they opened with this.

Penn sat in a chair placed in the aisle about a dozen rows back from the stage, pretty near where I was sitting. Teller took two audience members on stage. The lady held a rose, the man handed over his wedding ring. There was a scarf involved, Teller did his thing, then the ring was magically in the stem of the rose even in between where the two volunteers were holding it. This was sleight of hand, no big deal.

But then... the guy says it isn't his ring. His ring is on Penn's finger sitting in the audience. Nobody left the stage, Penn never left his chair. The volunteers were taken from the other side so they didn't even walk past Penn on their way up.

Penn held the ring up on his finger, held it up as he walked to the stage, then extended it to the guy to confirm it was his wedding ring.

Now obviously if the guy was in on it and there were two identical rings that would be easy. But... I would find that disappointing.

Any other ideas?

Hey everyone! The mods gave me permission to share this.

I’ve made Inkling, a drawing-prediction app for Android inspired by apps like Greg Rostami’s iForce. It’s currently free, with no ads or paid features.

The effect: You ask someone to think of something, draw your prediction on your "favorite" drawing app, and place your phone face down when done. They name their choice. You turn the phone over, revealing the matching drawing.

The method: You prepare the possible drawings beforehand. The direction and speed you flip the phone determine which one appears. There are up to 16 outcomes: eight directions, each with a slow and fast option. So you can have users predict various things like days of the week, a number 1-10 (1-16 just seems fishy), favorite energy drink, etc.

It installs as Pocket Sketch, with a drawing canvas and private setup controls.

Getting started:

1. Install and open Pocket Sketch.
2. Follow the first-timer tutorial, which shows you how to use every feature.

Feedback here is welcome!

I made a free web app that you can use to fool your friends! Just go to EyeKnowsAll.com and use two fingers to swipe down and learn how to perform it!

I am needing videos of people reactions so if you do the trick please send me a message!

How did he transfer her signature

Video is from the last performance of Awakening at the Wynn. She’s wearing a huge costume too!

Hi guys. I need your help about a viral video in italy.

Some guys are traveling in a lot of italian cities making a video.

These guys ask to people to say or write a number (1-2-3-4-5 digits doesnt matter) and the guy who asked send by "his mind" the number. And the other one reply with the same number.

Could someone help me?

Thanks

It could be a mem deck but idk

Looking for the name of a card trick I used to do. A spectator stops me while I deal cards, I memorize one card (3rd or 4th from the stop?), then sort them in a pile, add the rest of the deck, deal into 3 piles, and reveal their card on top of the piles. They shuffle it back in, I deal cards face-up, and after their card appears I say "the next one I flip is yours" and bet on it. Anyone know the method or name?

It’s birthday stuff, that’s all.

After *loving* doing magic back when I was a kid, I fell out of love with it for a good few years as a teenager.

Now, after going to a few magic shows, I’ve got a relit spark for magic performance, and I’d love to get back into it!

I’ve managed to find a few of my old magic books, but essentially all of my equipment has vanished (no, it wasn’t me that did it, har har). But I *do* have approximately £50/$65 to spend- is there anything you’d recommend?

The Invisible Hand Device originally caught my eye, until I found out that instructions cost an extra £100. Is there any reason at all to buy the device without it??

Outside of that, would love to hear any suggestions you guys might have! Happy to discuss. :)

Any ideas how he did it the ace of heart can be a force but Jimmy stabbed and the card was spread randomly.

I'm looking for DVDs or videos/channels specifically. Willing to pay - it doesn't have to be free. My interest is in card and coin tricks.

I am GREEN. I only know 3 tricks so far that I learned on IG and I do them poorly. I'm looking for anything that can help a newbie. Video content is best.

I've always been fascinated by magic. A couple weeks ago it occurred to me that I could actually learn it.

Thanks everyone.

Does anyone have an idea how does this guy do any of these tricks?

I am trying to figure out how to do an illusion/sleight of hand for a play. I want to be able to make a letter (ideally the size of a standard sheet in paper folded in half, or larger) to appear out of nowhere or be grabbed out of thin air.

If it were smaller (like the size of a playing card) I could do a back-palm, but the paper needs to be larger.

Any ideas how I could do this? The actor who will be doing the sleight is a complete beginner, so the easier it is on her the better.

I assume the first card is a force and the dice is rigged. I still don't see how this could work, even with that.

from 8:10 onwards does anyone knows the name or how any of those tricks are done?
