This is a mindblowing mentalism trick that I use all the time. It's bar none my favourite trick of all time. I love the idea of creating magic that's based around connection.

    Magic allows the practitioner to participate in, to use magician Paul Harris' phrase, "the art of astonishment." More than anything else, I enjoy that. Occasionally I will share an effect, hoping the astonishment transfers, but mostly I work on things for my own edification-- I just like to learn. Because magic is practiced-- let's face it-- alone, it is possible to get lost in frustration. Magic teaches patience... At its highest levels, it becomes art. Rene Lavand said a magician should always strive to become an artist. The ART of Astonishment is possible. I saw magician R. Paul Wilson perform his version of Lavand's "The Three Bread Crumbs" in a room full of magicians, and he astonished the room into silence.

    I have a good idea of how this is done, when the performer puts the deck under the table he turns the whole deck over except for the top card, he then asks the assistant, to place the cards under the table and the trick works itself from there, the only way that I can think he would find the chosen card with the deck face down is the deck is marked!

      @@mackinleys.delusions I did not intend to expose secrets, I just wanted fellowship/advice from a fellow performer. Though, regarding secrets, I'm in the Penn and Teller camp: I do not think secrets are important. Nowadays, almost every secret is free online. Every trade has "secrets"; magic is not unique in that way. It's the artistic use of these "secrets" that most impresses me. To me, those who are intent on hiding secrets can fall into the trap of lying to their audiences about the powers they must possess to accomplish miracles, instead of emphasizing the real truth that magic (in this context) is the art of entertaining illusion. Illusions are still appreciated when the secrets are known so long they are presented entertainingly, again, P&T have demonstrated this many times throughout their career. Fool Us has also shown that sometimes known secrets can throw people off to the actual method. Personally, as one of your viewers, I watch street magic videos like this for full street magic performances; it inspires me to go out and do it myself. I also recognize that this medium, since its inception with Blaine, has almost always not shown full performances, even though that's what I prefer to watch. On YT, JS Magic and Sha King are my favorites in this space because of their dedication to showing honest performance. If I, as a magician and magic lover, am not your intended audience, I do not need to be here. I was just curious what part of the performance I was missing in the edits here as it was unjustified to me as a viewer. Please forgive me if I'm coming across a little strong in this long paragraph, I mean well for you and I, I'm just passionate about magic and I figured feedback is better than nothing back. Experience is Truth. Tray

    I had a weird experience where I performed some Amagram stuff on the typing Omegle, and the person on the other side believed that he could do remote viewing. He didn't really perceive it as a magical moment, until I revealed that I don't believe in psychic powers myself, and it was this revelation that caused his mind to struggle to process, because he thought what I did would be impossible without psychic powers.

      That's really interesting! Yeah it's fascinating how when someone really subscribes to a psychic type belief system then mentalism is not as mindblowing as when they're not as big of believers. Thanks for the kind words on the performance. In this case I honestly just performed it as though I was psychic, as that's how I always perform. I pretend to be psychic. I think I told her I'm emulating psychic ability, which leaves some room for mystery, but I often just perform it as though it's real. I find that's the strongest and most interesting way to do mentalism.

    Hi mate. Fellow Chan Canasta fan here (as you'd have no doubt guessed by my profile pic!) in England. You presented that so well - particularly as the boozed up spectator was finding it difficult to follow due procedure! So many performers never think ahead about the 'what if principle' - or in other words, what they are going to do when something doesn't go exactly to plan. The effect itself is VERY strong. I've performed it for many years myself. That said, I truly believe that Chan Canasta's direct form of Mentalism with cards, is the very best material ever released. Lest we forget that Chan Canasta literally worked around the world with nothing more than 2 packs of cards (in 8 Kings) and always BORROWED books, for his various book tests. That speaks volumes (no pun intended) for both the quality of his material, coupled with his skillful presentation. Indeed, what enabled his popularity is that he took chances and was sometimes wrong. This just added to his believability as being 'the real deal'. Have you studied Chan's other work? By all means, drop me an email to BarryAllenMagic (at sign) aol dot com if you require any further information. 👍🏻

      Love your in depth comment on Chan, I need to investigate a little more of his work. I’ve played with his book test a bit and some of his psychological card experiments. He really was so far ahead of his time, and I love what he was able to to do with just a deck of cards and books. Also, his book of Oopses is interesting too! He really was a very fascinating performer.
