      When he flips it back over he pushes it out and drops another card on top of it, that’s why he’s holding it face up so you don’t see the other card, and that’s the one that he puts In the middle of the deck so the ace is always on top, but in this case he dropped two cards on top of it so he can get that effect with the crimped card after, notice when he reveals it he’s holding it as one card when it’s actually two, I’ve done this trick before it’s actually really easy, he’s not lying when he says that they are simple tricks as a lot of David blaines tricks are actually really simple and easy to do, it’s actually dumbfounding when you realize how easy some of them are especially the ones with the best reactions.

      @oskimac 3 ปีที่แล้ว +71

      actually he carefully bent two cards, yif you pause and go frame by frame you can se how his fingers hold the bent cards so you never see that there are two. he puts his fingers abobe the bent so it doesnt pop up, ant then he take the upper bent card that is not andys one. and place it on the deck. the second card he bent is always up but he keeps his finger abobe. then when he snaps he release his thumb and the card pop up. you need to spend days training that.

    When he flicks through the deck quickly for Andy and the audience to choose a card the only card you can see for long enough is the Ace of Diamonds. Try it! I went back several times and that is the only one your eyes can distinctly identify. He is so incredibly good with his hands that he allows the Ace of Diamonds to linger just a bit longer than all the rest. He’s incredible!

    • @IsThisRain
      @IsThisRain 3 ปีที่แล้ว +47

      If you play it at 0.25x, you'll see that he uses the ace of hearts to prepare the audience for the ace of diamonds. He also used the 9 hearts to prime the audience to recognize a red card. It's genius.

    We all see Ace of Diamonds. Most people remember the last one and he moved it so quickly but little pause in the end so the only one you can probably remember is Ace of Diamonds. This is the trick and he perfected it. 👏👏👏

      Wrong it's one of the ambitious card routine. It's like a magicians force card. You prepare the ace of diamonds just above the 7 of spades then riffle it until the ace of diamond is the most prominent one. Of course it's the last top part of the deck. Double lift the cards so the 7 of spades will be shown and put it back face down then hand over the top card which is the ace of diamond.

    i figured out the push of the ace of diamonds with conan. if you watch it multiple times you'll realize, near the end of the deck, he placed the signed eight of diamonds. i think he practiced the feel to stutter his flick of the top of the deck so the ace of diamonds shows a bit longer, and combined with the end a split second movement it pushes ace of diamonds on you. if you watch the flick multiple times you'll realize that your brain tries to read every card it sees in the flick, but its so fast you immediately forget the previous number to remember the next. having the ace at the end of the deck, and saying what he did before the flick to manipulate your way of thinking, culminates in i think a near 100% result of people seeing ace of diamonds. all the people watching at home paying attention probably saw ace of diamonds too, and it blew there minds guaranteed. its genius. I'm sure all of his acts are full of this level of thought and practice, but fuck me id love to know how he does all of it.
