    • yes remember you

      ah, that sound wasn't a card that fell, actually nothing falls. It is however the sound of something else that happens but shouldn't actually be heard. So yes, two mistakes, thanks for pointing them out and appretiate the fact that you don't reveal!

  • Shifted Cars

    I'm not exactly sure how the trick is done, however a string sounds very plausible. We can be sure, however, that the card is pulled/pushed (whatever) from the top of the circle as you can clearly see that the cards covering the jack (at the top-right from the viewer's perspective) have shifted upward after the card is gone.

    Not a bad trick. Unfortunately, the setup is WAY too long. Work on the setup and make sure the circle is unblemished when the trick is over and you'll have a winner.

  • ok

    for starters, u have an invisible string attached to the jack that allows u to slide it out, that is why you can notice a change in the cards when it disappears..because u moved them too..and u dont show the top part so that we dont see the jack being pulled off, and u use a black background to blend it better....last, you can clearly see the doble lift, with an extra jack from another deck obviously...u get rid of that last king when u remove the cards from the screen for a second, and voila...
    but nice trick...i ll rate it 5 for u...we all have videos trying to make it so we should help each other, lol...good luck!

    • Good but...

      ..not right. Altough your method would have been easier, and would have saved me hours of work, it is not the solution to the trick. Unfortunately the explanation of the double lift is completely wrong so is 'most' of the system you tried to figure out regarding the vanishing of the card. I can proove it and I will cause I have a challenge now!

    • Nice One

      I'll give you five for that too. I agree with what el bilo said though. But it's pretty cool. So I challenge you to prove us wrong by making another eliminating all the possibilities above. You'll make my day :)

    • Challenge?

      Hmm, I love the idea. Ok will do it. I'll post a new video of the item, leave evreything in view including both hands and use a different color background (altough this will spoil my dark look). To show that the card is not threaded up or anything as explained I will try to figure out how to have a card randomly chosen even on video. I don't know how to acheive that part but will think hard of it and figure out a fair but simple system and proove it. But if i do so, will it amaze you?

  • Magnet, I Think, Could be, not really su...

    I've seen this trick performed in a different manner. The card had tin foil pasted to the back of it and a magnet was controlled from under the table top. Yep, saw that revealed right here on MC. I noticed that this performer never did reveal the back of the Jack of Diamonds, which further makes me think there was tin foil on the back of the card. If this trick can be performed in full view of the top the table I would be very amazed. Good trick tho'!! If I hadn't seen a similar version of this trick I would be be blown away. Sometimes, reveals take all the fun out magic. "It's the journey, not the destination", someone said.
