There are so many people who cannot remember a card not matter how much you emphasise that they must remember the card. How could he confuse the Five of Spades with the Jack of Spades?
Bob Hummer is credited for the discovery of the principle, Harry just put his twist on it. If you like the principle, definitely check our Bob Hummer books.
Couldn't resist taking a moment to thank Harry Lorayne for writing my favorite magic book of all-time: Close-Up Card Magic. I went through his book page by page when I was a teenager and 50 years later my favorite trick is still one from his book. I don't recall the name of the trick, but three spectators pick a card and the cards end up between 4 aces in the middle of the deck. I saw Harry several times at Tannen's Magic store on Broadway and was lucky enough to watch him perform for 45 minutes straight there for a bunch of us magicians. He had to be coaxed, it took a short while to get him to do a trick, but he kept going and going and amazed and amazed. His energy was contagious and his love of card magic was inspiring. I will always be grateful to him.
Bruh... you're in magic since you were 7 and can't even figure it out... He's using some kinda double sided tape and stick it on his thumb... Or balancing on his thumb without tape..... That's easy to catch bruh
Real in what way? It's not real, as in the card doesn't really vanish. But it's real in the sense that there is no camera trickery. It's sleight of hand.
I really appreciate this video. because I honestly couldn't figure this out from the original video. However, because this video kind of milks the trick a bit too long, it becomes obvious. If the objective of this video was to keep it a mystery, then the 'less is more' route would have been the way to go.
