Your channel is a great celebration of simple, pure entertainment. No flashy music, effects, just a team of people who create entertaining content. It is much appreciated. Seeing one of these videos on my subscription page brings a smile to my face.

"..one time, at a villa in northern Italy, we played cards on the surface of the water" - It is OFFICIAL: Tim is... The Most Interesting Man In The World
I hate to reply to a 2 year old comment, but as soon as I heard that anecdote I just had to see if anyone commented about it. Lo and behold - this was the first comment. Tim is such a gangster.
Jesus, this channel is awesome. Ten years ago I woudn't think I could be so entertained by 15 minute one-take video about playing cards (which I don't even like to play all that much). I'm 28 now and this was just brilliant!!! You guys should have 500000 views, not 5000.
Back in those days Tim was still living a life of crime as a prolific bank robber and jewel thief who'd give Larry Lawson a run for his money. It wouldn't have been a good fit back then, but today, absolutely!
The cards before the Japanese ones were hell to read and I just saw a diamond with three lines, which I assume to be 10, which would feel like a happy coincidence if it didn't hurt my eyes so much to read.
Love seeing your collections over the years :) great videos and amazing channel Tim, thank you for taking the time to share these. Youre really extraordinary.
Love the artist commissioned deck and the card tower at the end! I used to collect card decks, still have a few around, I have a double sided deck somewhere, each side of the card having a different card on it so you get all 52 cards in only a 26 card deck, might be a novelty deck or maybe you could use it with magic tricks. Seeing this collection, might just get a few more different cards in the future.
What a fine Gentleman this Man is...Children would love to watch his little tricks...not to mention Adults. Looks as if he is a Professor of Astronomy or Physics at Oxford and has the most gentlest of expressions and explanations.
I think my new life's goal is to make something so extraordinary then it ends up on Tim's show. The icing on the cake would be if he said: "nice idea that"... One can dream
this has to be the most entertaining thing on youtube no drama no arguements the guy who hosts the show doesnt make death threats (you know who im talking about) and hes just the nicest guy you could ever meet
I know that I'm like 7 years late, but I too have a collection of playing cards, not as extraordinary, but I still love them very much. I'd love to add some weird cards like these to the collection too.
another good one: John Riddell's novel "A Game Of Cards", printed on the faces of 4 decks of playing cards. one deck is a collage to be assembled in any order (which always ends up looking about the same), another a poem that can be read in any order, another is the novel itself (also readable in any order) & the 4th is a set of performance instructions for a play. the decks all interreference each other.
The collapsible tower of cards is the map principle in three dimensions: no matter how good you are at folding a map, it will always find a way not to fold properly or at least look flush when folded.
Never would've searched for this on my own... but for some reason, I'm happy UA-cam recommended it. I feel happier, and obligated to comment since this seems to be that case for a lot of people.
There are rules on this channel to be like tim 1 respect everyone 2 have a good sense of humour 3 speak in a calm tone 4 have confidence 5 be good at making jokes
Darn you! Just when I thought I could not get any more addicted to this channel, those "magic eye" cards get rolled out! More I'm forced to spend hours on end with this video paused until I can see the image! Heh, I was hoping to get some sleep tonight, but I guess that isn't happening.
If you can relax your eyes you can do it. Try getting pretty close to the screen and then relax you're eyes. Move closer or further to find the ideal range.
The cards from "Texas" are actually based on the story of Wild Bill Hickok. A lawman of the 1800s who was shot and killed while playing five card draw in the town of Deadwood in Dakota. The infamous "Dead Man's Hand" of Aces and Eights with one discarded card are based on what he was holding when he was killed. I thought this story might add some more interest to the description of the deck of cards.
I want this man to be a narrator for a video game. I want to listen to his voice guide me through a game and explain its intricacies as I inspect things further. He’s the Bob Ross of toys.
You've got a neat collection of cards. I never could see any of those magic eye pictures, let alone play a card game with a deck like that. I was always interested in magic deck cards for magic tricks.
I found the last one the least extraordinary xD I'm quite familiar with that 'invisibility' pattern as I've worked in an advertisements-company for a year :p They're producing billboards which show visible advertisements on one side, but on the other side you can just see through the billboard:p They're making it for windows as well so customers on the outside see a building's windows filled with advertisements, but on the inside you won't see anything of it and you can just look outside through it. No idea why I'm telling this :D It's still mind-blowing when you see it for the first time though, like I was :D
I'm a sucker for these decks. They're bigger decks than usual, but that's how I like them. I like to deal with big shapely decks under the table until they spill over me so I can clean it up and go all over again.
Dusan Pesic Chuck Norris I've managed pretty easily to see the suit on both the magic-eye-back cards and the magic-eye-front cards, but the numbers are hard to make - I think they don't show the number as a numeral at all, but as a series of lines or something. I did manage to read one of the magic-eye-front cards, the card on the right (with the two dots at the bottom) is a jack of clubs.
That last one was genuinely extraordinary.
I heard "extraordinary" in Tim's voice in my head :)

Can't...Stop...Watching. Tim, what did you do to me? Why are these so highly addictive? Haha
They really are. I found this channel last night and watched probably 20 episodes, and now I'm back this morning. I like this guy.
omg same! i swear these vids have internet drugs in
You could say it is "extraordinary"
also sorry for commenting on a comment 1 YEAR OLD
They are
I love your enthusiasm! I watch these almost purely because of your joyous nature. What a kind soul you are.
And don't forget the epic accent as well :-D

Possibly.
+Jesser Gdl he did
Pooooooo
I saw the the length of the video and knew i was in for a treat.
This definitely falls into the category of 'something i didnt know i wanted, but thoroughly enjoyed.'
im beginning to think that tim is an immortal being that has seen it all so he just does random things each decade to satisfy those generations
Tim should have been a regular on Mr. Roger's neighborhood.
zachary roper i honestly believe he could have a show on PBS or sprout for our british counterparts
I would pay all the money on earth to see Tim on an episode about teaching kids other cultures or something
Back in those days Tim was still living a life of crime as a prolific bank robber and jewel thief who'd give Larry Lawson a run for his money. It wouldn't have been a good fit back then, but today, absolutely!

Take Tim's face, put it on the cards.

Tim can cure cancer by going "Heh" near them

This is the very definition of a wholesome video. It brought me joy! Thank you.
As a Texan, I highly approve of those Texas cards.
The London ones are also very nice. Especially love the Sherlock Holmes on the 2.
I love his commentary after every object. Tim's fantastic.
I never noticed how nice Tim's nails are!
his videos trigger my ASMR

Tim, you are a lovely idea... I mean lovely gentleman. These videos with cards are my favourites.
Seeing Tim performing the end of Card-toon, a trick that fooled Penn and Teller, was really something special.
Big shout out to this guy. Has over 1 million subs and put the ads at the end.
Here for the love not the money.
That was so posh I need a second monocle....
Tim's ultimate quotes: "Extraordinary Idea." "That's quite clever."
that japanese magic eye cards have the 2 dots to facilitate the illusion, very nice touch there!
Japanese:10 of Diamonds, and a joker of clubs, upside down.
The cards before the Japanese ones were hell to read and I just saw a diamond with three lines, which I assume to be 10, which would feel like a happy coincidence if it didn't hurt my eyes so much to read.
i wish you had a TV show. just these videos, but on TV. everyone should watch these videos, theyre so nice.
Love seeing your collections over the years :) great videos and amazing channel Tim, thank you for taking the time to share these. Youre really extraordinary.

It made me laugh for real, like LOL ? ! !
the big card castle towards the end was amazing

The fact hat they can be read in any order and still make sense is impressive
Might sound weird but I could listen to this guy talk for hours.
I don't think anyone here would find that weird.

Yes! It actually forms the 6 of spades in the back! Wow! and he was holding the jack of spades upside down from the next deck on his left hand. 😱
those last cards blew my mind
I LOOOVVEE TIMS VIDEOS :D do it forever Tim!
those 52 artist's cards were lovely, I liked the queen of diamonds at the end there.
I love his collections, they're brilliant!
Those see through cards are amazing, I want some!
Lovely, delightful, extraordinary. You make words sound so nice.
So simple yet so sophisticated
The teardrop shape looks very nice

5 be good at making jokes
I love the story about playing the cards in the pool of a "villa in Italy".... he has a very different sort of life from us :-D
If I had a quid for every time Tim says the word "extraordinary" I would be extraordinarily well off!
4:53 That one card's a 10 of diamonds.
5:23 That one's a 10 of spades.
5:29 You're holding an upside down jack of spades.
The card tower really amaze me a great amount.
The artist cards look amazing!

I have the deck at 7:00! I love it, but it is tricky. I got it in Down Town Disney, in Florida.
I’ve been watching his videos at 3am for the past couple day’s
Your collections always amaze me
I've tried so hard but have never been able to use the magic eye effect. I've 20,20 vision but still can't discern anything.
Ethan Blair On The japan cards you focus your eyes to see three dots instead of two ant the image pops out
If you can relax your eyes you can do it. Try getting pretty close to the screen and then relax you're eyes. Move closer or further to find the ideal range.
all people who see something are liars. it's a conspiracy to make us look dumb.
My technique is to *look behind* like *through* the book/ screen. Or go crosseyed. There are two ways to do magic eye.
14:24 So in other words you can see Jack Schitt :)
Nice collection for sure.
