I would use a pen half in 2 with magnets in between without cutting the cards. Switch the pen with the normal pen to give it to the person who is watching, including the cards to believe your magic.
Any chance you sell these card setups ready made? I realize its alot of work but because of that, there likely will be a demand. I wanna do this trick for my kids but having to buy the strings, double backers and do all the cutting & tying, its a little bit of a turn off.
To anyone who says: "Knowing how it's done, destroys the magic."
Yes, Yes it does, and it replaces itself with wonder and appreciation of the hard work and skill that goes on behind the scenes.
Great video.
Hmm yeah I'd rather preserve the magic than pander for appreciation of the method- or views and likes.
You get the magic when you see it, and then the awe and appreciation when you see how it was done. Magic ain’t easy
ok...
@@1495978707 BTS clips of movies are interesting but are definitely not necessary to have a sense of awe and appreciation for the movie itself. Same with magic. It's not easy, but people understand that without exposing the mechanics.
And it shows how the instant where the actual magic happens is so far away from when the audience thinks it happens. Rest is just showmanship - a lot of fun getting fooled here than when investing :)
I’m gonna be 100 percent honest like even when I find out how certain tricks are done it’s still insane because of some of the dexterity you need to pull it off so cleanly
Magicians often say if you reveal how the trick is done, the magic is lost. Sir, I agree with you 100%. There is no magic, there is only fuckery. When fuckery is done correctly... its magic!
@@LazerBrain11 certainly agree, the fuckery behind it is what magic is, and I'm still fascinated that they pull it off so cleanly
This is exactly how P&T feel, and why they created Fool Us
practice practice practice
Absolutely agree. I think I enjoy it more when I know how it's done, since I appreciate the skill it takes to perform an effect that much more
Honestly, pulling this trick off is still magic in my eyes. It’s not just making the gimmick, it’s preforming it so smoothly.

It takes years of training to perform a magic trick. I tried and succeeded in some basic manipulations, but when I wanted to practice "back and front", after three months I was only able to succeed one time out of ten. Professionals succeed every time and do it with not one card, but with a deck of cards. I admire their dexterity.
The initial demonstration in the first 10 seconds of the video are edited to make the trick seem better. The audio is muted when he moves the sharpie through the card - only the background music is playing. When he shows how to do the actual trick, the gates of the gimmick make an audible clicking noise that sort of give the trick away. This would be a difficult trick to pull off correctly in a quiet setting.
@@Phyrre56 it’s also not a trick you would do in a quiet setting.
Magic is cool and all but I'm absolutely living for the crazy levels of science and engineering and art that goes into stuff like this.
its just a card with holes in it
@@radscorpion8 the mass-energy equivalence is just a bunch of symbols
@@radscorpion8 thank God you were here to explain that to me.
@@radscorpion8 That's the fun of technology though: when it's figured out, it seems so simple and dull, but to someone who doesn't know how it works at all, it feels like it's somehow just magic. LCD's seem so simple and mundane nowadays, but they weren't even conceived of a few decades ago, so that just tells ya how far we've come in terms of tech.
Any sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from technology.
Funny thing is, learning how some tricks are made actualy caused me to value and appreciate even more these artists and the Art they do.
Weird comparison, but I felt the same way about pro wrestling after studying theatre at university. When I was a kid I was a big fan of wrestling, then hit that "it's all fake" stage in my mid to late teens and stopped enjoying it. But after studying things like stage combat, theatre in the round, crowd work, improv and so on, I gained a whole new appreciation for the craft.
Sometimes it's even more entertaining to see behind an effective illusion than it is to be fooled by it.
I love how magic has turned into a realm of secrets to hide the wonder and now has transformed into an open sharing of ideas to make even better illusions that everyone can enjoy. Even as the audience learns how it is done that only makes you appreciate it even more. Then someone takes that same trick and adds to it to evolve the idea even further.
When the audience knows how it’s done it’s just showing off skill, not doing magic. The feeling of amazement people get is seeing something they know should be impossible without a clear explanation. They know it’s not “real” magic, but outright exposure eliminates all wonder. At best some people will still appreciate the skill, but most will lose interest once they know the secret.
@@Rhewin that is not true for me atleast...
I never enjoyed magic shows
Especially the narrative of the secretkeeping rly bothered me.
My interest only emerges after seeing videos of tricks explained
@@supremebohnenstange4102 That's great, but understand most people could not care less about the mechanics of the trick. Many would even be disappointed knowing how most of it works, even if they say they want to know. Magic gives people a chance to experience real mystery. Let's not rob them of that.
@@Rhewin well the masked magician showed that Alot of ppl rly wanna know how it works 😖
@@supremebohnenstange4102yeah he also never exposed methods of contemporary performers, and in many cases was just using his own methods. Also if you think his point was that people want to see exposure, you missed his point.
I used to enjoy performing the Wandering Hole back in the 70's and 80's and I don't remember what became of it... It was nice to see your brief inclusion of the wandering hole in this video. Thanks for keeping the magic alive.
I have a wandering hole
@@endor8witch you people are sick
Listen, I know it’s pride month, but nobody wants to read about about the bedroom.
Lmaoooo
@@roy4104 😂💀
I remember as a kid, we had a magician visit my school. He showed us a trick and I thought it was really cool. I begged this guy to tell me how it was done and he eventually whispered in my ear "it's a secret". I always thought that was stupid because even after knowing how this truck is done I still think it's magical. I love learning about how these things are done. Thanks for not being a stingy old magician with your knowledge.
It's not magic. It's a trick. Magic is magic. Magic is real. This shit isn't...
@@KnowsysDaSleuth thanks, I didn't ask
@@iamrutabaga7761 Would have been much cooler of that guy to recognize your passion and set you on the path to learning how tricks are done. Although, there's really nothing to it other than buying tricks at a shop, or buying a book. No magic is really a secret, it's just behind a paywall.
For a lot of people, learning the secret kills the enjoyment. They get brief satisfaction from knowing how it's done, but that trick will never impress again. I will say I don't hold back if I think someone is genuinely interested, but most people aren't. You are the exception. That's great. Embrace it. But don't ever think that you're doing laymen a favor by telling them how everything works.
Well, at least he didn’t whisper something sus…
I love that you show how to make these gimmicks. I want to start making my own gimmicks and try to come up with new gimmicks myself. It really helps to have a teacher showing things like this. Thank you
Lol
Nice work
Magicians tricks reminds me of the boom in machinist and engineering work around the turn of the century, all the inventions and things people were coming up with. Only instead of making machine gun patents or boiler schematics, you're making a trick.
GENERATIONS🇯🇵
It amazes me how these guys come up with the ideas. A true knowledge of magic tricks and no doubt years of watching other illusionists to make something from them to create your own..well done
The first guy that came up with this idea was probably in ancient Egypt 4000 years ago. Or something like that... lol
@@Reth_Hard I doubt it, they worshipped cats so no catgut used to stitch the doors 😉
I've stopped it at 4:30. I really enjoyed your presentation of the history and nod to those who came before. I am sure it is a fascinating gimmick - I have an engineer's brain. And I'm always amazed at the skill of the performer. I don't normally hesitate to learn how it is done, but I can tell you've done a lot. On this one, I'm choosing to keep the magic. Thank you!
And I liked and subscribed.
That's so silly lol
I just gotta say you are an incredible magician and extremely innovative, creative and imaginative. I am blown away at just how unbelievable and awesome your intricate card gimmick is. I just got back into magic after 42 years,(I was a teenager doing card, coin and close up magic from a kit and library books for family and friends and as amateur as they come). I had stumbled across a “Street Magic” video a few weeks back that rekindled my love of card magic which also led me to the world of Cardistry. I went from one unopened deck of standard Bicycle cards that I had just laying around my house to over 60 different decks from all of the top-tier card manufacturers in the Card Magic and Cardistry industry in just over a week, and I still have 21 more decks are on their way. I have been practicing all the basic cuts, flourishes, grips, fans, spreads, and shuffles every day. Anyway this video of yours is my introduction to you and your channel here on UA-cam, and you impressed me so much, not only did you get a huge like from me but I subscribed as well, it’s the least I could do. Thank you for all you are doing and contributing to the Magic community, and keep up the great work!
Great trick but the snapping of the card as the Sharpie is pulled through can be a giveaway.
Yeah when the sound was removed on the initial demos it was smoother psychologically. But its still a hell of a trick.
That's when you ad some sound effects like saying "WOOB WOOB WOOB WOOW! as you pull the sharpie through 😁
thats why every magic show has loud music playing
You think you’ll hear that on a city street?
I think slightly rounding off the hard edges of the "barn doors" would lower the click noise.
Also, the performer could make a loud sound for those parts. It's about distraction anyway.
@13:15 even with him explaining he was flipping two cards at once I still watched his hand work like 20x. Very smooth.
I mean that's level one card magic dude
@@-The-Darksidelisten bossman, not everyone's an expert. It's negative shit like you that discourages people from pursuing their dreams.
0:35 - 0:36 that was a really smooth way to hide the spectator card and bring the gimmick card to the front and I love how it works to hide the dirty card and bring the spectator card forward when you do it in reverse. I guess you'd call that some variation of a double lift?
Great video! we get some slight-of-hand AND a gimmick tutorial all in one!
To anybody trained to Magic, it appears clearly that he prepares his move with his fifth finger ;)
Having the patience to build this trick is magic enough!
I love these types of magic. Even after I know how its done, it still looks amazing and confusion.
We all know the card is probably gimmicked but IT LOOKS so clean!
That's a neat trick. Showing us how to build a gimmick card in order to trick us into believing he does not have real magic powers. But you cannot fool me wizard!
**Tip**
Considering your giving that one away, I suggest you cut an arch through the 4 closest barn doors. So if you leave the pen in, there is no square cut, it shapes to the sharpie.
Wen you performed the example 14:01 the flaps at an angle are pushed back out. With the arch cut, you can perform a flawless pull.
and obviously to pull this trick off you wouldnt want anyone hearing the cuts as they smack on the marker.
This broke my brain.
I actually felt like this was far simpler to do than I expected or maybe you just made that fantastic of a video.
Thank you.

Thanks for all the stuff you come up and share with us! You Rock Brother! 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼
Only the best for my guys!
@@LloydB indeed! Now get some sleep! 😂
@@LloydB I tried your tricks to be popular with the ladies and it worked like crazy😂
Great trick, great tutorial. One suggestion would be to sew a version where you use a blue card but make the cutouts red so you can really see the contrast on camera.
Anyone dedicated should have no problem following along but having the contrast could be neat.
Crazy trick! I love it! Even after you know how it's done, it still looks magical!
This trick is literally like a miracle like literally.This is the best 🔥 Your Tricks are great!Thanks for all this stuff 👍
Too kind! My pleasure 😊
@@LloydB I think magician is really one of the genius and creative person because you can come up with new way of thinking and created something amazing! So cool love from thailand 😍😍
Literally? Really? -Jesus probably
@@jerrywhidby. I know. It bugs me as well when people do this sort of thing.
@@janX9 It was a simile...
FIVE OF MY FRIENDS!? HOW MANY FRIENDS DO YOU THINK PEOPLE GOT!? LOL five friends?! In THIS ECONOMY!?
Sounds like a skill issue
I dont even know why i'm watching this or got it recommended. But its awesome and makes me appreciate all the work magician put in their act.
Great gimmick!! One thing I learned is that the closer to the side edges of each "door" you make the holes, the stronger and more reliable the trap door is. I also put the Sharpie curve at the bottom of the card, just as at the top. Thank you so much for your videos.
That was awesome! Thanks for this tutorial. When you don’t know how the illusion works, it genuinely looks like magic.
From his shoulders down it’s “your daughter calls me daddy”
From the neck up it’s “Hello, do you have a moment to talk about our lord and savior Jesus Christ?”
lol
extraordinary in a very extraordinary way. at the age of 72, I can finally and can play with my grandchildren. and this makes me very happy at this very old age. thank you for sharing happiness with me. I pray for you that God will always bless you with health and happiness and God will ease all your problems. Amen
This guy is an artist, no other words. I’m not really a fan of magic, but the artistry that goes into it, most of which you’ll never see. Brilliant.
Props for putting something like this up here. I don't think I'll make this but it was a joy watching it. You could probably sell these for quite a bit assuming they could hold up.
This is beyond hard core! Working on attempt # 3, the extra effort will be worth it for the fantastic effect. Thanks for the tutorial!
That was wonderful! I’m not a magician, I’m a scientist. But I often blur the line between science and magic in my shows. After all, science IS MAGIC, only real!
Amazing effect. I'm going try it with my Ambitious card routine has a finisher. Thanks Mr. Barnes !
Oh boy that’s a good one ! So it’s like quantum but with a borrowed sharpie , bro that’s amazing !!!!
Thanks a lot for sharing this for free ! 🤩
These tutorial Tuesdays are making me rethink my thoughts about ya Lloyd. Thanks for the history lesson as well. Keep it up and I’ll keep throwing ya the thumbs up.
I've seen this card done a lot recently. And now it makes so much sense, I'll be making one later today.
Amazing!
Love the effect here.
I always hear magicians talking about gimmicks, but I never know how things are gimmicked.
Thanks so much for sharing this.
Magician: excuse me my good man, may I borrow a sharpie for my card trick?
Person: uh, I'm just a normal person on the street so of course I always carry around a bag of sharpies
Magician: excellent! Now my trick can proceed
Thanks for the tutorial. As a videographer though I feel like I should also give you some advice. Get more light and shrink your aperture (higher f number) as it will increase the « in focus » area. Most of what you did on the table was out of focus and we couldn’t follow.
You can also record these segments on your phone as they have a smaller sensor and not much depth of field, most phones can give great images and everything will be in focus.
That was a beautiful moment for me. I wonder how some tricks are done, but they're rarely explained. This was really wonderful. I can only take so much sleight of hand before I'm too curious about it but since they don't explain it, I stop being able to enjoy more. Thanks Lloyd.
Thanks for posting this! Even though it exposed the technique, I still marvel at how it all comes together when it’s combined with showmanship, etc!!
the part where the sharpie sliding through the card in the beginning was completely silent but later in the video sounded like a train rolling in was truly magical.
Not for the faint of heart! heh
Yeah that gave me a laugh.
This is awesome ...Not sure I've got the patience to make one of these ....But its definitely cool. Thanks for sharing- loving your channel and love watching it develop and grow...Your smashing it man 🙌
I saw it right away from the intro. But then I wouldn't be able to pull that off. Even with this full tutorial. This guy is something else.
Thank-you for being a quality magician and mentioning credit where credit is due. You have my respect. If I ever make this gimmick, I will credit you, and the evolution.
Please stop using a narrow focal point. Half your videos are out of focus.
Okay Douglas McGhee, as long as you promise in your heart of hearts to stop hyperfocusing on the focal point.
OMFG.
The bluriness is frustrating
It's not out of focus it's just him using his magician mind powers to distract you so he can do the magic trick
bro used widest aperture on lens 😂
This is sick! Haven't been into magic tricks for a while now. What a video! Insane gimmick behind a 'simple looking trick'
This was so cool. I think it will take several tries to get the cuts right (rounding the corners just a bit) to where it doesn't make as much sound as well as practicing the movement when you pull the marker thru. Beautiful 🎩
Ok even seeing how its made and performed it is STILL an amazing illusion close up. The elastic thread was the thing I would never have thought of. I was thinking a second sliding card or part of a card underneath but this is much more complex and detailed. Very nice. And the other trick with the board and moving hole...pheeee..witch!! :)
Very clever card mechanic. Amazing how much tricks you share every Tuesday, I think this one is your best.
The most impressive thing in this video is the fact that Lloyd regularly drops all these jaw-dropping ideas for free.
Am I missing something here? He literally just cut a hole in a card lol
@@graystone2802 most magic tricks can be explained by saying "all they did was (simple thing that isn't as amazing as general audience would expect)"
Also, there are unlimited ways to cut cards for various effects
*For UA-cam revenue and clout.
@@graystone2802you missed everything🤣
A better but slightly more difficult gimmick would be to cut the "barn doors" in a curved shape to match the sharpie, so you could even stop at each door and the previous door can fully close with no gap. That is, the side toward the viewer is always a semi-circle of a hole that the pen fits perfectly.
The shallow depth of field is really tough on the eyes when trying to demonstrate precise details, especially with the AF going in and out.
YOU CUT THE AUDIO OF THE “BARN DOORS” IN THE BEGINNING, BUT AWESOME GIMMICKS IM HOOKED
I support the current thing.
Genius and elegant design. That the sleight is so simple makes it all the better too. Just wow!
Only issue is, you get the clicking noises when you're moving the sharpie through. On a video that can easily be hidden/muted/edited out. But in person if you're moving along and you hear click click clack, it's just odd to a spectator and might give it away, no?
You will probably have to talk loudly when it happens to mask that, or the crowd will be gasping anyways
How do you deal with the snapping sound the gimmicked card makes?
What do you do about the sound the sharpie makes as it passes through the barn door sections underneath?
Usually you should try to perform this in crowded areas, like parties, night clubs, in busy street areas. The ambient noise should cover up the sound of the barn doors closing.
The craftsmanship and planning to make such tricks look like real magic is always more interesting than the trick in itself.
That's subjective.
I can't believe it I guess it correctly about all the steps 😅 I was thinking about double flip before the tutorial. ✨
The amount of preparation for tricks that seem to be so organic is amazing in and of itself. I imagine magicians spend hours with tiny strands of string and cards making individual props for every trick.
This is amazing! Just for the tutorial, you might want to consider doing it with a blue and red card (at least future stuff) keep up the awesome work! Thanks!
13:16 That was *smooth*. Arguably as impressive as the gimmick itself
I've watched it like 20 times and still can't see how he's doing it
@@OhSlugggy Just barely get your finger under the first card of the pack. The trick card is double backed, so if you put the signed card face up on top and flip the two of them over at the same time, you end up with the trick card on top and it looks like you only flipped 1 card. Repeat the process for concealing the trick card and producing the signed card.
It's amazing how much your brain fills in. I was convinced you moved the whole around in two dimensions
I always get excited when a new Tutorial Tuesday video comes out, and this one does not disappoint.
Hell yes! Thank you so much!
Dude ! This is just pure gold ! How can you give that away for free ?! You're awesome ! Thank you for sharing those gems of magic with us !!!
Because if he tried to market it, he'd be spending all his time making thousands of gimmicks!
@@ResoluteGryphon No, he could just sell the trick, the method, the VOD... Or if he wants to sell the gimmick, he could associate himself with a huge company, such as Ellusionist, or Vanishing Inc...
He gives this away for free to get notoriety to sell his other tricks. It's pretty smart really.
The version I made years ago was using a common stick pen that I gimmicked and I could put it through anything. I used to put it through the water glass at a restaurant. I would slide it up, remove it from the glass and hand the pen over as it was completely normal and examinable. I only had to palm a small part. It worked great and I gave away many to friends, never sold it. Much cleaner approach and more versatile. I like your use of the card, but no one can examine it.
Today I learned that a background in engineering will go far in helping someone become a successful/innovative magician.
Thanks again Lloyd, you're 'killing me softly' ,gimmick by gimmick,but I CAN'T wait to have a good go at this little pearler! I wasn't satisfied with 2 gimmicked items while performing this-your inspired idea of using 1gimmick in this effect makes perfect sense-I doff my cap to your ingenuity,many thanks my friend!Very best wishes, Dave.🕉️♣️♥️♠️♦️🃏
I love the challenge of thinking through how these tricks work. And this one worked pretty much how I thought it would, but I don't think I would have guessed the elastic string.
i love that when you see the trick after you understood it, you can clearly see all the hints and signs how it works. and these hints were noticeable during your first contact with the trick, but seemed mysterious.
He edited out the sound the pen made as it moved through the cards in the beginning though, so that wasn't able to be noticed at the first example.
Extraordinary craftsmanship and skill go into this trick. Far more impressive than the trick itself. Bravo.
I thought the crafting that Edward Norton's character did in The Illusionist was really cool, and you actually do this stuff! How cool. Got a new sub
Great video, but I can't tell if you're having focusing issues or just shooting with such a wide aperture that the depth of field is too shallow. It seems like the latter. If so I'd resolve that to make the videos more watchable.
You’re the first of a hundred magicians that hasn’t put me to sleep….L+S’d👌🏻🇨🇦
Thank you for this tutorial. It's helping me bring to life a project of my own I have been trying to figure out since June of 2014
This is super cool. I wonder if it's possible to make the barn doors smaller and have a funky shape like a weird spiral u? Maybe start from a corner and spiral the sharpie to the middle of the card and pull it out? God dammit I'm not gonna be able to sleep tonight!!
Definitely possible... but you're gonna have to attempt it because my hands are crippled after this one 😂
@@LloydB Imma for sure gonna try after receiving my Pymm thread... PLUG! Link in description!!
Im 9 minutes into this and cannot guess for the life of me how this is possible. even knowing we are cutting 8 parts im guessing the "spring" back but it looks too good for that. I recently found you and enjoy you more than C.R but i still like D.M. craziness. I want to figure this out knowing what i know but it's ingenius very sharpie. Why not magnetize the sharpie w 2 earth magnets.
Even seeing the barn doors the sharpie slide looks so clean. Whoever thought of this is on another level of visual attention.
This is very impressive. I’m amazed by how ingenious the inventors of tricks are.
Really a ukraine flag in the background?
I just said the same thing 😂
I enjoyed the gimmick Ukraine flag more. Can’t beat a bit of woke 🙄
I have no idea how this ended up on my recommendations but I’m glad it was, this so interesting!
When I saw it first I was intrigued. After seeing how it worked I went back to the beginning to see the trick done and immediately saw the barn doors open as you slid it through. It's an amazing trick when you're clueless lol. It fooled me the first time. My only issue would be the slide of hand and misdirection. I'm not a particularly smooth person ☺️. I shall subscribe now for the hell of it. Would like to learn more.
Sleight of Hand is magic in it itself. ✨️
I swear, magic tricks literally undersell themselves.
Yeah the pen through the card is amazing, but hot dam is that a lot of effort for that trick that takes under a minute to perform!
Magic is the culmination of *so* many different kinds of sciences, and it'll never not amaze me
"I'm going to move this sharpie through the card in slow motion". Proceeds to yank that market through that card quicker than a slicked up rectum after a taco bell dinner date.
I love how tricky you magicians are!
I have been watching this video since the first time you uploaded this video. Congratulations for reaching 2.7 million views. ❤.
Lloyd, I met you once. I am praying for you daily. Didn't know you were a magician until now. You are loved brother.
Thank you brother. Where did we meet?
The first time I saw this trick I was soooooo amazed and I hoped I could buy it somewhere. Then I got this video from searching and I hoped it was easy but it wasn’t. So I continue to watch you do it and be amazed and skip the gimmick 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I almost didn’t want to watch this because I don’t want to ruin the magic. The best part is suspending your disbelief and allowing yourself to be amazed.
Am reminded of all the code I'd write for one web page effect or function. Even more amazing than the end effect is how you thought to devise it.
Sheesh, that's a lot of work for a trick and even knowing it, it blows my mind. still finds it hard to see through it, looks good. I do appreciate people showing tricks, showing the magic how it works and what needs to be prepared.
Too clean, wow as someone who is only a magic fan it's awesome to see videos like this
I enjoy watching slight of hand even though videos like this reveal secrets of the trade. That little bit of knowledge only elevated the performance of someone very good.
