Dammm first
congratulations, you have achived the highest point of success in your life. you can kill yourself now.
Not simply first, but “Dammm” first. We are truly in the presence of greatness.
my favorite is the what the hell card
i laughed like hell on that
“wow” cards an thumbs,thats cool.
He talks so very fast.
That was tight.
Holy mother of cows
when the person cuts the deck he puts the top cards back into the deck
Ed Hardy shirt, he must be a douche.
The dude who plays captain jack,is a fag.So you cant talk about douches.
first of all the deck is of course prepared.
2:13 controlled shuffle, afterwards looking at the cards and adjusting two of them
2:18 fake cut - does not affect order - “accidently” rotating a card with his finger so he can mark the cutback. double lifting makes it look that there are two diffrent cards on top.
now the audience cuts the deck into 6 parts, the internal of every part has a controlled order, but the way the deck is cut is not controlled, this will effectivly require 6 reverse-cuts. to do this, he quickly looks at the cards with his thumb, finds the cut, then back cuts, merging the parts into the same order as they where before.
2:42 backcut 1 - before he can lay out the first cards
2:48 fake cut - taking two tops, putting back in same order
2:54 backcut 2
2:59 fake cut - turning bottom
3:02 fake cut - turning top
3:07 backcut 3
3:13 backcut 4
3:18 fake cut - taking two tops, putting back in same order
3:22 fake cut - taking top and turning it, putting back on top
3:26 backcut 5
3:38 backcut 6
the remaining deck is now controlled. at this point the woman makes another uncontrolled cut, and the deck is now split into two internaly ordered parts. assuming magic is impossible, there are several ways he can counter this:
a) he looks a the bottom card and figures out one of ~20 ending scenarios. in some scenarios the players would get houses, in others, they would still have 4-of a kind. he has the more intresting endings at plausable split locations.
b) lifting techniques can be used to make unintresting scenarios intresting by skipping cards.
c) it’s a set up. the woman is not a random person and makes a controlled split.
nay, it be magic!!
withcraft…somebody call harry potter so he can take a shaft to the face and bitch about it for seven books
nice bro.
So he is either magical, or a god damn genius. Either one is very impressive
also tl:dr
you wasted your time
hes some sort of wizard.
“He who’s name not be mentioned?”
…or however the people from harry potter referred to that evil wizard. I never got into that series
when he turns the cards over the first time they are in the correct order for his story
You sir win this comment section.
for pointing out the obvious,he is a winner,get a grip man,sure the posts above really thought it was wizardry,they was just being funny…or was it magic,ooooooooo.Does he go up to kids at christmas,an tell them santers not real…no problem man ur still a coolguy.just having a laugh with you.
You sir, are the smartest person EVAR.
I think coolguy,can take a joke,just like i new his post was a joke….o^o
Well, he’s obviously magical if he can “look at the cards with his thumb”.
thumb eyes,the true sixth sense.
The curious case of thumb-eyes.
Thats pretty indepth. how much time do you have?
To much,me thinks.
the joy is wanting to know how he does it, which is why nobody wants to know how he does it
el diablo!
he failed the moment he decided that wearing that shirt was the right thing to do.
Hogwarts Shore represent.
anyone know who this is? i live near the tivoli, i want to see this guy!
screw the cards! how the hell do you do the crossed fingers thumbs-down/thumbs-up trick…? o.O
you’ll find the TL;DR explanation on ebaum’s. Pretty simple trick which everyones misses cause of the camera cut.
The what the hell card was epic.
I was too busy looking at the hot chick with the white top to focus on how he was shuffling them. Damn good trick!
yep.
Now, if we could only get this guy to pull BK out of a hat…….
It’s entertaining nonetheless. Funny way of telling the story. Very smooth.
I guess your new Years resolution to update 5 days a week is out the window?
I figured out the hand trick. At 1:08, his right hand is rotated CCW (as viewed from his eyes.) Then at 1:10, while the camera is at wide angle showing the audience, he gently repositions his hands. At 1:14, it can be seen that his right hand is now rotated CW.
Great post buddy. Can I add your site into Spurl? I couldnt find it submitted there.
