IMPOSSIBLE Card Trick That FOOLS EVERYONE Revealed! Magic Tutorial by SpideyHypnosis

you thought of a random card i had no chance of knowing what it was the cards were completely shuffled for the first time say it out loud what was your card three of diamonds three of diamonds yes no yeah it is it is i'm saying no because i'm like i don't know exactly how that works again you are going to fool everyone with this trick that's not an exaggeration everyone you show this trick to is going to be hopelessly fooled it's one of the most deceptive tricks i know and it's based on such a deceptive principle that barely even makes any sense and it's a really really old principle so if you have a couple of magic friends who have read all the old books and have been doing magic for like more than 50 years then they might stand the chance of recognizing something in this but besides that anyone who's not a magician even your really really smart friends or family members you know we all know the one person who's so perceptive and they always spot the things they won't stand a chance and most of your magician friends won't stand a chance either you are going to fool everyone so it's extremely deceptive it's really easy it's done with normal cards does it get any better than that well actually it does at the end of this video i'm also going to do a giveaway and an awesome contest for a really really cool prize so the video has a tutorial it has a contest can't ask for much more let's go for the performance i want to welcome back a really good friend of the channel you guys have all seen her before she's an incredible cardist close-up magician stage magician she does it all and she does it so well welcome back to the channel my good friend ekaterina welcome back to the channel it's so good to see you again so good to see you always such a pleasure to have you on the channel and i hope you're excited for this trick i am excited but i feel like i have to redeem myself they're like how how is she always fooled what no this no this isn't the one this i like if you want to redeem yourself and not be fooled this is not the right one this is uh maybe the next one maybe we'll bring you back again and maybe that one that was the first time we're doing this like virtual fooling thing so let's let's see what happens i'm watching you all right let's just jump into it i'm gonna use my favorite deck in the whole world for this boom not biased no not biased at all this is the fox playing cards completely coincidentally by ekaterina but that is just coincidence and i'm going to give these a mix like this and we're going to try a bit of virtual mind reading so i want you to imagine kate a clock in front of you and all the numbers on that clock and i'm going to take 12 cards to represent those numbers 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 cards and i will mix these like this because i want to make sure this is extremely fair and kate you know cards better than i do is that very fair this is a legit shuffle yeah good and if you were here i would allow you to mix these up and i'll even give them a cut like this so imagine all the numbers on the clock and i want you to imagine the hand going around and around just one hand and it stops on a number kate your call which number nine nine you sure yes okay one two three four five six seven eight that right there is the ninth card do you want to change it you want the one before after do you want any other card or is that exactly the one you want let's go for one more let's stop at 10. so this one over here yeah you sure i am sure okay i'm going to close my eyes i'm going to look away and i'm going to show it to you and i have no monitors here i'm not cheating if you were here i would do this all in your hands here we go can you see that card well yes you can and i'm gonna put it right back there and like that eyes closed i didn't see anything so i think we could all agree kate right now that i can't know anything about your card right right wrong we know that it's the 12th card down because i took 12 cards i put it down and put the rest of the cards on top okay so we'll change that i want you to make sure kate that this is 100 a legitimate ripple shuffle yeah yeah and if you were here you can shuffle but i'll do it again just for you to make 100 sure fair very fair and kate i'll give you a complete free choice here you want me to cut the cards or leave them as they are cut the cards cut the cards is that good yep awesome now i could see that you're already getting a little bit confused with good reason the cards were shuffled you took a card at random it's lost in the deck focus on the card okay uh i don't think you got this one no this one this right here i'm gonna go with this kid i want you to think about this this was totally random you thought of a random card i had no chance of knowing what it was the cards were completely shuffled for the first time say it out loud what was your card three of diamonds three of diamonds yes no yeah it is it is i'm saying no because i'm like i don't know exactly how that works again and i didn't ask you to say any of this like you legitimately are very confused by this yeah yeah okay let's learn it guys there it was i hope you guys enjoyed that performance and i know a lot of you are scratching your heads right now like what the hell just happened because it's just too fair there's too many shuffles it doesn't make sense and the reason it feels that fair is because of a brilliant principle so over a hundred years ago in 1920 there was a book published called 30 card mysteries by charles jordan and in there he talked about a principle called interlocking chain and it's one of the most deceptive concepts and that is the reason this trick works now my good friend derek chung who's like an encyclopedia of magic he knows everything about card magic told me that this principle is even older than that that it was first discovered by a guy called c.o williams and then rediscovered and published by charles jordan well more than 89 years later after that there was a guy called spidey who discovered this principle in a book called royal road to card magic which i know a lot of you know because it's one of the fundamental books of card magic and if you're not familiar with it you should be i'll leave a link in the description but in there there was a wonderful trick that uses this principle and i learned it there but then i just took the principle and i worked on my own trick with that and that's what we're learning today so right now we're gonna jump right into the explanation i'm gonna show you step by step exactly how to do this trick after that i'm gonna do an amazing contest and a giveaway so stick around till the end of the video but before any of that do me a huge favor guys hit that subscribe button turn those notifications on for more amazing magic and mentalism to do this insanely deceptive trick all you need is a standard deck of playing cards now in the performance i used fox playing cards by ekaterina and in the explanation i'm using the standard which is red bicycle rider backs this is the standard for magic they are the best price for quality option you can find them pretty much everywhere but if you want them delivered to your door i will leave a link in the description to these and the fox playing cards but really any deck works now the setup is very very simple and very very quick all you have to do is go through the deck and take out all the cards of any suit you want so in my case i did the diamonds so all the diamonds are now here all 13 of them that's important you have to make sure you have 13 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 diamonds it doesn't matter if all the other cards are there at all as long as you have 13 of the same suit these cards are gonna go on top and the only thing i need to remember is the bottom one in this case it's the ace of diamonds the order doesn't matter at all the rest of them don't matter i just have to remember that the ace of diamonds is right there at the bottom the first part of the trick is completely optional if you're new to magic you can absolutely skip this and the trick will still be very very deceptive and by removing it you're removing the only slight in the whole trick so it becomes very easy but i think if you want to put a little bit of time into practicing this it's going to be a little more deceptive because you start by shuffling the cards so you're going to start by making it seem like you're shuffling the cards in fact what you're doing is called a top stack retention that means that a small stack from the top of the deck is going to stay exactly the way that it is so let's see how i do this i'm holding the deck like this the faces of the cards are to my right and the backs of the cards to my left my left thumb is going to come over and peel off a stack of cards what do i mean by a stack i mean a little bit more than all those diamonds so i want to make sure i get them all so you can notice they're about a third of the deck now the right hand comes up like this and it comes down it's going to look i'm just shuffling these cards what happens in fact is as this comes down my left thumb pulls that top card only that top card like this downwards but notice how it falls behind it's more towards me it's sticking out over here and now in a continued motion i keep peeling cards off of this packet and it doesn't matter if they go back or front make that really messy and end the shuffle like this with a little bit of a tap now notice what happened because of the way i shuffled that there's this one card sticking out here and that is directly above all my diamonds so now i come back again my right thumb pushes on that card creating an opening goes right in there grabs the cards like this so notice how now there's this opening over here right above the diamonds and you don't want to do it this way for them you've turned your body this way so they can't see and now you simply shuffle all these cards like this above everything above that opening a little bit sometimes one at a time sometimes in blocks then when you come closer you let go of the entire thing and you throw all these other cards right on top like this so basically what you've done with that shuffle is it's looked like you're really shuffling but you didn't shuffle anything all the diamonds are still on top down to that ace nothing has changed there so let's look at that in real time now so you've got your diamonds at the top down to your ace of diamonds like this and you are going to peel off that packet in jog that card shuffle shuffle shuffle like this then you're gonna come back grab that opening keep shuffling let go of everything at the break drop the rest on top and now although it looks like you were shuffling like crazy you end up exactly where you started which is all the diamonds on top down to that ace of diamonds now we need a really good justification to choose amongst 12 cards now throughout magic i've seen a lot of really really great justifications for this but i came up with the idea of the numbers on the face of a clock i really like that i haven't seen it elsewhere although i wouldn't be surprised to find out that somebody else also at some point thought of that whatever the case you're going to take 12 cards 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12. so basically these are 12 diamonds and the 13th diamond the ace of diamonds is going to stay right there they don't know that now you grab these and you immediately mix them you really want them to know that there's no order to this you don't know anything about the order you can even hand it to them to mix if you're doing this live but make sure to say something like shuffle these like this that way nobody could see which cards you have because you don't want them to see that it's all the diamonds or they could do it under the table whatever you're more comfortable with now you take the cards you tell them to imagine each one is the number on a clock which number do you want now again if it's live this could stay in their hands and they could count to it but if it's virtual or you know you could do this live as well you just count through the cards so let's say they say four one two three four i say are you sure do you want to change your mind you can have any of the other ones that's the one they want now i take the card and i show it to them if it's virtual you turn away and you show it to them if it's live they take it out so in this case six of diamonds the six of diamonds goes there on top of the ace of diamonds and the rest of the cards are dropped on top now i say a line that i really like here and i'll tell you why but you could totally skip this line if it doesn't suit your style i say now we must admit there's no way i can know anything about your card right and they go right and i go wrong i know it's the 12th one down because we took 12 cards you took one out and it is now at the bottom so the reason i like this is because if you have a spectator who's like really trying to figure it out and they get that they notice that right now by saying by admitting that you throw them off their game and they go wait a second if he's admitting that then there's nothing to do with the trick and it doesn't so by saying that you disarm them and now you're about to disarm them even more because you can take this now and give two riffle shuffles or if they know how to riffle shuffle you can give this to them and they can riffle shuffle twice and what's happening here is the interlocking chain principle which i was talking about earlier here's what it means because all the diamonds are up here if i take this right now and give it a riffle shuffle basically the order of those diamonds cannot change i can only put cards between them but i can't change the order because of a riffle shuffle so check it out if i take cards like this and riffle shuffle even if i'm putting cards in between those diamonds the next diamond after the ace will still be the card that they chose right see if i go through you'll notice we have the ace of diamonds and i put a card between it but the next diamond is their selection here's the crazy thing if somebody has a decent riffle shuffle at the bare minimum you can do it twice because from the first shuffle the ace all the diamonds are still in the top half so now i can do it again and again i only put cards between them i know this doesn't make sense but try it with your deck in your hands and if it doesn't work it's because your riffle shuffle is weird it either did a big block thing or a weird clump thing but if your riffle shuffle is decent two riffle shuffles there's the ace of diamonds and then immediately after i put cards in between but the next diamond is the one that they chose and that is the interlocking chain so now i've done my two riffle shuffles i can even give it a cut and now i'm ready to them in their heads there's no way i can know anything they took a random card it went back the cards were shuffled twice and now as i go through all i have to do is look for that ace of diamonds there it is and keep going the next diamond in this case the six is their selection i hope you guys enjoyed this insanely impossible trick and that you're gonna go out and crush with it i know you will but now it's time for the very exciting contest and giveaway so a lot of you already know this but a couple of months ago i was a guest performer at a virtual magic convention over a very fun
