    I love how it's not just a trick, it's a trick that has MANY potential points where the cards could be manipulated, switched, removed, added, etc. It heightens our awareness and makes us supposedly wise to what's going on. And for us to STILL miss when the actual switch happens, it's fantastic. So much fun!

      Alain, you're missing the other hints. "At the end, you had a change" and "You absolutely held it, the guts..." are the giveaway. He checked the cut card when showing hers, so he could palm out her card during the shuffle (thanks to the "in decks"). Hold it at the belly (notice the jacket "adjustments"), and then use a change for the reveal. No force, real choices from both.

    Ok, we all understood what Penn's "sleight of foot" meant. The packet needed to be unique & easily recognisable in that snowstorm. The sequence of the cards was known & unchanged until the cut & riffle (precise interleaving, not shuffle). The sequence is still known. To get an accurate cut in the middle, use slightly tapered cards with both halves oriented opposite. The full deck of 52 (I counted them) was in open view before Nicholas chose his number.
    Question: How did Nicholas "know" it was card 41?

    This was a fine performance. When I was a small boy, about 55 or 60 years ago, I discovered a trick deck of cards in my fathers dresser. He had me pick a "random" card and then showed it to me. I don't remember any details after all these years, but I remember how the deck was "tricked," and I can tell you your trick deck is a slight upgrade from his. I also picked up some clues from your hiding a part of a card. I believe I could recreate this deck of cards, but I could never master using them. I could "get them to work," but it would be clumsy and obvious. All in all, a very nice performance. Congratulations on a job well done.

      Dunno much about magic techniques, but my guess was that there were three moves. First, I think he managed to peek at her card somehow. Second, I think he contrived to sneak it out of the deck and hide it. Third, once the 41st card was isolated and sitting face-down on the table, I think he secretly switched the hidden card with the 41st one.

      @@dnwiebe no, good try but no. You can see, when he shows the selected card to the girl, only a corner of that card is full visible. Later, when he spreads the deck saying all the cards are diffferent, he shows only that corners of the cards. And when he reveals the 41st card to be the selected one, he covers that corner of the card with his fingers (in an unnatural way, if you pay attention to that). So its easy to understand that he has a deck of cards full of 3 of hearts, but every 3of hearts has a corner of a different card, so when he spreads through the deck it seems that all the cards are different.

      If you watch the card selection "drop process" you can see the last card to fall is an 8 of spades, and the next card to fall would've been a 6 of diamonds. Neither of these were the card she was shown to memorize (the 3 of hearts). It was a forced pick that was held by him yeah.
      All the talk of taking his time counting and how he would hope for a 6 or 7 - it's because counting out say... 50 cards and only have 1 left over at the end is suspicious because theres 52 cards, but counting out 6 and only having 45 left as opposed to 46 is much less noticeable. That's what the cards "being stuck together" around 12 was about, to disrupt the counting and he could double count something.
      Secret in the decks, he planted a deck missing the 3 of hearts close to his foot for the trick

    to be honest brent, no bullshit, as soon as they threw the cards up on the stage i immediately went back twice, once to look at your hands to see if you dropped anything and then i looked to see if you kicked anything out from your pant leg by your shoe. i could see the slightest little twitch from your knee down. and then continued to watch the trick. i figured it came from your leg. but as i'm watching i was captivated, i will admit. i know how you got your deck but i sure as hell don't know how you got nick to name karen's card. that being said, i thought your performance was one of the better one's i seen. *note: i am not a magician- i just love watching the stuff. good job my man.

    how I think it was done:
    Obviously at the beginning, the sleight of foot. He also walked around a tiny bit to guarantee he was close enough to his deck.
    After that, a pretty standard card force.
    The main thing about this specific desk is that most of the cards are the 3 of hearts (this could help with the forcing). One of the corners says 3 of hearts and the others say their actual value in a standard deck.
    If a number was chosen that would hit a non-3-of-hearts, start from the other direction. The 20, 41, and 5 or 6 (I don't remember and I can't watch the video while leaving a comment on mobile) were probably pushed up or down or marked in some way so that he'd know a safe card to show to the camera.
    while showing the cards to the lady on the left, he only showed the corners
    while picking up cards from the table, he looked at them first, then held it by the corner that had the 3 of hearts to conceal it

    Aaaaaagh got the answer to the trick and it's so.. something you can miss! Something I did miss for days. I do think it's worth figuring out magic tricks because it's also kind of a life skill, to become more attentive to important details. Chess does that, but these magic tricks are also a fantastic way to test how thorough you really are in your observations.
    I won't spoil it for others, only to say that to find answers like this you must be able to state to yourself the observations you've made in the most complete way possible, and only then do your natural assumptions not negate the real answer. Great illusion!

    I feel like a lot of the acts on Fool Us are just performing to Penn and Teller but this guy really performed for the whole audience

    I'm surprised Alison only now realised that about magic shops, considering.

      That's what I thought also, but since they show how to do the tricks, it might have made a few people mad (like some think all magic tricks are real).

    2:36 Im guessing he forced the card because if you watch, the card he held up for her to memorize was neither the last one to fall, nor the one that would've been about to fall
    and at 3:34 there's only 51 cards on the table.. looks like when he got to 12 and said they were "stuck" he moved two around a little bit so that when he got to say... 41 they wouldnt be like "there's only 10 cards" rather than seeing 11 cards after it

      No, at 3:56 there are 52 cards there or do I always count wrong?

    "If you ask a mathmatician of what the odds are, they'll tell you it's one in 52."
    "But right here, right now, it's once in a lifetime."
    What a magnificent bit of performing.
