@@MAGNETO-i1i When David voluntarily step back not to see the selected card, you know he's doing the trick. The eliminating cards are put into his back pocket at 0:47 or so.
I think in this case it was an event where he was supposed to be at and he did this as a quick favor to the group in the lobby. You can hear in the end he's like, "Ok I have to go get ready for X now". But the walking up to random people is something he does in other occasions and how he started out in Brooklyn and stuff, and it's def awesome because not many people have the courage to do that kind of thing
See 0.46 to 0.49 .that's where he hid the rest of the cards in his pocket and after that you can observe he has kept the spades only and kept it slightly bloated. You can very well observe the gaps in the deck..
@@abhishekpandya283 Yea, I see him putting cards in his pockets, but how he knows to pick the right suite and pick them all from the deck in that time short amount of time? lol the dude is slick.
@@thephilosopher7173 I think he's done this enough times to know that Spades will be the least chosen suit. And, I saw in another video of DB with this trick where the person accidentally picked the suit he already prepared (for example, spades in this specific video) on the first choice, he just went ahead and "vanish" all the other suits and have the one chosen as the remaining suit (with some very clever word play). What is impressive is his charisma and presence to be able to pull this off. We can replay videos to catch him in the act, but those people are witnessing magic live, and were just captivated by being in Blaine's vicinity. Simply amazing.
@@josevaladez8056 NICE thank you, there was ZERO chance I woulda caught that on my own I think both of the kids are deaf because they were similarly disconnected from the laughter breaks
easy! look at the thickness of the stack at 0:41. then, the switch happens at 0:45. and then, look at the thickness of the stack again at 0:59. he is actually holding the stack with cards slightly separated to make it look thicker. and from that point, it's just a matter of pressing the deck down. he had 4 separate 13-card decks for each suit in his pocket. he had someone signal to him the suit when she showed it to them. so, knowing what she showed, he went for a stack that was other than what she picked.
David has described this before, part of a normal trick is get someone to look at the sky, then change the card when they’re looking up. He had no need for a second signal, he definitely just looked at the card while it’s being signed.
Probably the greatest close a magician whoever left it is an hour and still live in the same time as him! This is what people talked about Houdini like
@@Joe55348 He's very good at psychology & reading people & getting you to think stuff subconsciously, magicians have been doing this type of persuasion for forever & David Blane is a master at it .
He switches the deck that he first used with another one with only spades in it as he was moving away while they were signing it. Then he held the spades only deck in a way that made it looked like a full deck by spacing them out to look bigger.
You see David Blaine do the magic trick once and go “oohhhh ahhhhhh woooow” David Blaine doing the magic trick for the 30,000th time going “wow they are still amazed”
I caught the sparkling water relay with ponytail that was super focused on recording the performance. Good moves, one of the best, if not the best. Nothing but respect, perhaps I was giddy at the find.
That's because it's not the whole time, only from the moment he asks them to sign and beyond that 😉 Felt like the girl was catching on, she kept prying at the deck but it felt like she didn't understand what she was seeing.
OK so far I get how he switched the deck from a full deck to only spades. But he asked what suit to get rid of. And what if hey said to get rid of spades?
@@dustinwroten353 yeah that happened to him once, there a vid of his performance, I can't exactly remember what he did but it wasn't a big deal, its just how you word things and he changed what he was gonna do. there's really nothing that can go wrong.
He looks right at it as they're signing it. He makes a joke about it not mattering if he sees it and they laugh because they "know he'll figure it out anyways," and he literally just watches them sign it.
She picked hearts, his shill chose clubs, then he said to the woman "pick spades or diamonds" and the % is she says diamonds. The clubs guy then aides in the deception over clubs/spades
I thought he approached a jar of water and I thought, here we go again those kids are going to have nightmares, toward the end of the video where he approached a deck of cards.
@@ericmartin7037 Are you the person who comments on strangers who leave comments on UA-cam videos? What a life....btw: why you no like pretty ladies, dude? You likeee pretty men instead? No Sha!e, it's 2021....
David Blaine and Alex Honnold ....they need to meet one day and talk....but it will be a long slow conversation, they're such relaxed dudes. Some people are just awesome.
So what happened here...Blaine was staying at the same hotel as those at a wedding? And he decides to conduct a free show ? Wow! Crazy ! Great trick though !
David Blaine just makes me think she was Scarlett Johansson. Best magic ever!
Dude same!!!!! I thought Mark Rflo was behind her Lol
PLANET EARTH hahahaha I rewatch again. I’m sure is him!!!!
Broooo the mark ruffalo joke might've been better !!! 💀
Haha me too.
That's not Scarlett Jo?! 👀
I've seen him do this trick about 10 times and it's still awesome
I still have no idea how he gets rid of all the other cards
@@MAGNETO-i1i When David voluntarily step back not to see the selected card, you know he's doing the trick. The eliminating cards are put into his back pocket at 0:47 or so.
Why did i think that was Scarlett Johansson from the thumbnail
wait it isnt? i was watching the whole video thinking it was her, well to be fair i never looked at her face
@@theGOODsh1t No its not her looked alot like her at an angle though
It’s David Blaines optical illusion
I spread my toes when I jack
I live how creepy Blain was/is. Loved when he would walk up to random ass people and say “Do you wanna see something?” Dude is brilliant
@@miata350 right? Lol me too. On instinct, I would just say I don’t have any money.
I did that twice and got my dick out afterwards and both times was arrested. Fair?? Sorry for not being a fking Magician.
I even read it in his voice too XD
The way he would stare at people in his early videos is hysterical

David is a freaking legend.
Thanks for posting David Blaine is the best a shame you can never hear a word
The best trick was how he clickbaited us without even clickbaiting us
A master of the craft.
Gotta love the verbal misdirection where he makes it seem like he forgets the suits just to give it more flare
was not a misdirection, it was just showmanship
@@tyroneloki5131 would the trick not have worked if they picked spades (instead of clubs and diamonds)? how did he force the spade to remain?
@@SuperDangerousMouse He snaps his fingers to remove them from the deck
@@zerohours. why did I not see that the first time???
@@SuperDangerousMouse yes it would. just sleight of hand. can be done in a bit different ways but principally the same
See 0.46 to 0.49 .that's where he hid the rest of the cards in his pocket and after that you can observe he has kept the spades only and kept it slightly bloated. You can very well observe the gaps in the deck..
So how did he know which cards to put in his pocket?
But they told him the spades afterwards
Exactly my point how spades?

I LOVE that kid at the bottom who is just wide eyed, reading everyone's reactions
oblivious to the trick being explained lol
because he’s deaf u can see him using sign language with the girl in the dress

Blaine is an entertainer and then magician.
Incredible. What the trick! Most amazing thing I see. And I watch Penn & Teller TV show!
David Blaine is awesome.
David Blaine is amazing!
Hell, I'd hold her hand too. Sum people should stop criticizing & acting like they know the trick better, just njoy the show.
0:46 the trick is done
and the guy in grey in the left just noticed as you did... hahah
But how did he know which card to be eleminated?
Even when I know how the trick is done... I would never be able to do it like he does lol
I can watch his double life constantly. I know how the trick is done, but still amazed every time.
Me too Bro....😅
Easiest trick to do. Beginner 101 level.
How ? Can you recommend any sources to learn it or at least the name of this specific trick?
@@cemisgezeksakini406 TRump's accountant and attorney do that one, so does Biden's psyche...

Feel like I'm having a stroke reading this
Why
@@miamimagicians what the hell are you trying to write my guy??
Probably the greatest close up magician who ever lived meant to say. Damn voice text
@@miamimagicians man🤣🤣🤣🤣. Now I get it. Darn voice-to-text😂😂
After watching him do it many times on multiple occasions, I finally caught it just now :D He is so slick
Lol while they're signing the card he just puts the other suites in his pocket , not so difficult
Darwin Giovanni but how does he know which suits people will eliminate?
@@Joe55348 He's very good at psychology & reading people & getting you to think stuff subconsciously, magicians have been doing this type of persuasion for forever & David Blane is a master at it .
Plus there's a trick to it that even if they choose a different suit that you were hoping for you can still pull off the trick .
@@miata350 but how
Those are so natural!
He is holding the cards low to see those cans
He is the best
Y'all seen the girl in the red shirt think she did something when she saw a red card at 2:14
Sarmad Riaz I think there was an extra card left and she tried to point it out but didn’t wanna ruin anything
seen it so many times, still amazed
Leaves all the cards and takes the card box 😂
I know how the trick is done but what fooled me is how he set it up so quickly
random random same. He did it so smooth like dang
random random you know the trick? So you know how to make a deck of cards disappear
He switches the deck that he first used with another one with only spades in it as he was moving away while they were signing it. Then he held the spades only deck in a way that made it looked like a full deck by spacing them out to look bigger.
IF the people chooses spade, he will say the clubs and diamonds are gone.
But he asked, which ones he should eliminate....and even if not the second one could also picked the spades
Okay so he puts them in his pocket... but he gives other people the power to decide which ones stay and which one should disapear
You see David Blaine do the magic trick once and go “oohhhh ahhhhhh woooow”
David Blaine doing the magic trick for the 30,000th time going “wow they are still amazed”
I caught the sparkling water relay with ponytail that was super focused on recording the performance. Good moves, one of the best, if not the best. Nothing but respect, perhaps I was giddy at the find.
I was convinced that was Kate Mckinnon for like half the video
Wait did he grab a flask at the end? 😂
Amazing how he creates a full deck illusion the whole time until he pulls oof his trick. Incredible hands
That's not even, like, possible!
I'm lost....lol
That's because it's not the whole time, only from the moment he asks them to sign and beyond that 😉
Felt like the girl was catching on, she kept prying at the deck but it felt like she didn't understand what she was seeing.
Lets look at the mark 45 - 49 seconds he did something with the cards..
David Blaine needs to start doing these tricks at beaches.
OK everybody, it is NOT the actress Scarlet Johansson. I know it looks like her in about 2010, but it's not.
Scarlett?
Blaine and Lim...magic with cards!
Don't give a f#$@ what any cretect has to say. He is one of the greatest entertainers ever. Just enjoy the show.
I suppose it's hard for him to walk about now and do street magic, but I wish he could.
It was hard for me to pay attention to the trick
If you slow it down at 0.25x speed and look at 0:41 mark you will realize you still have no idea how he did it.
OK so far I get how he switched the deck from a full deck to only spades. But he asked what suit to get rid of. And what if hey said to get rid of spades?
then you say "i will eliminate all the suites except spades
@@Bidoof504 what if the 2nd suit the audience said was spades?
@@dustinwroten353 yeah that happened to him once, there a vid of his performance, I can't exactly remember what he did but it wasn't a big deal, its just how you word things and he changed what he was gonna do. there's really nothing that can go wrong.
The trick is to switch the deck while the others are signing.
Everyone talking about Scarlett Johansson, I'm just wondering what Steve Job's brother is doing in the background...
At 0;47 when he goes abit in the back u can clearly see him removing loads of cards. And the deck he then holds is only 8/9 cards. Grear trick tho.
David Blaine live 4yrs ago🤔🙄🙄
that was not Scarlett Johansson
How did Blaine know that the suit of the selected card was hearts? I didn’t see anyone disclose that to him.
He looks right at it as they're signing it. He makes a joke about it not mattering if he sees it and they laugh because they "know he'll figure it out anyways," and he literally just watches them sign it.
Such a basic trick. So masterfully performed!
this is not live it is a video from 2017
Rip to the guy who couldn't see the trick behind David lol
who else thought the lady in the video was scarlett johansson lmao
0:45 he looked
Unreal !!
The real magic is on her chest 😍
Lou Zer they're quite large.
What if he said he wanted to eliminate spades in beginning?
She picked hearts, his shill chose clubs, then he said to the woman "pick spades or diamonds" and the % is she says diamonds. The clubs guy then aides in the deception over clubs/spades
VERY SMOOTH, but he switched the deck at 0:46.
I thought he approached a jar of water and I thought, here we go again those kids are going to have nightmares, toward the end of the video where he approached a deck of cards.
O_o
No offense intended but the sound quality is muffled af
it said vip lounge. why are these people vip?
Imagine being the guy standing behind Davids back who can't see anything of the trick. 😕
A master of misdirection
what is the trick? he put the red card in the midle and nothing happend
This angle really hurts the illusion haha
damn i thought that was ScarJo in the thumbnail ,well anyways i'm off lads , enjoy !
Those are big tricky tricks
I see scarlet Johansson, I click
Ohh wait.....
I don't understand the point of making the kid sign on that card..........guessing it was not part of the trick
To misdirect he needed a reason to step back and swap the deck
see his hand reaching the back pocket at 0.48, that's the trick.
who's that woman?
Everyone is saying the lady looks like ScarJo, but I feel she looks like a female Tom Holland.
Cant hear it
0:45 i wont 👀 look???
who is she?
Easy trick with a couple accomplices, 2 decks of cards, and verbal manipulation.
Whos the gal??
how?
Look - 0:47 He switches the deck.
he didn't switch, he just put the rest in his pocket,
Yes in a matter of a split second - he took out all the cards except spades and the signed one with people watching. are you people high?
He had 13 spades in his pocket. Quick switch. The question is how he knew she picked a heart. He knew she picked a card other than Spades.
@@ViralVeediuh your an idiot lol
ernie villa lol at least I’m something
I went in thinking it was Scarlett Johansson
Wow. Who's the lady? Very pretty.
Are you just that person who comments on the hot chicks in videos instead the actual substance? What a life

WHO IS THE GIRL?!!!
How did I know he was going to do this trick 😂
love his magic and illusions! sound quality poor on this one "David Blaine showing us magic tricks at the VIP Lounge #July2017"
ScarJo? 🤔
Look how mad that guy is hahaaa
Same here 🤣🤣
Who is she ? her body is magic.

Its not a trick at all. Its real powers....
