What do great magicians perform when they’re feeling lazy?

A trick so easy, my 11-year-old sister used it to fool her middle school teacher…

“Jacob, you won’t believe what I did!” 

I opened the door to see my little sister with the widest smile on her face. 

YEARS ago I’d taught her a very simple card trick and her knowledge had finally been tested. 

See, she’d been asked by her friends and consequently her teacher to prove she was ‘magic.’ 

(They hadn’t believed her.)

Yet, despite how long it had been since she learned the trick and despite her young age, she’d pulled it out of the bag and completely shocked the class—even fooling her teacher. 

I was proud of her and delighted the method had been powerful enough to fool everyone, but easy enough that even an 8-year-old would remember it for 3 whole years. 

Imagine there’s a Venn diagram…

One side of the Venn diagram is full of ‘tricks that are so ridiculously easy you could teach a 5-year-old to do them’. 

The other side is ‘tricks that are actually deceptive and impactful for audiences’. 

As you can imagine, the intersection is very slim…

…but THIS trick makes the cut.

Imagine this:

You borrow a shuffled deck of cards and spread them messily on the table. You name cards at random and ask a spectator to select the cards they believe match the ones named. It seems utterly impossible, yet you turn the cards over to show that they perfectly match!

This is an old plot that we first discovered in a magic book dating back to 1909—but it’s just as strong today as it was a century ago. 

(By the way, this is genuinely THE trick we perform when we we’re feeling lazy but still want something strong.)

It’s called ‘Forcing by Telepathy’, and in this product, we teach 5+ variations on the routine. 

NEW: Here's a recent performance Benji captured of Forcing by Telepathy with a few friends. Before they started recording, the deck had been shuffled and Benji had asked someone to touch the 2 of Diamonds. That's the card that's already set aside. Next, this happened…

Forcing by Telepathy won't look like this every time but this is how strong this effect will pretty much ALWAYS feel for the spectator. 

That being said, let's get into the methods taught in this project…

V1: the base method

This is the simplest version of this effect and could easily be taught to a five-year-old. But don’t underestimate it! 

V2: getting spicy

In the most basic version of this plot, you also end up selecting a card. In this variation, the audience genuinely selects ALL the cards—and they match the ones named. No cards are switched. 

V3: ‘turn up the heat’

In this variation, the audience once again genuinely selects all the cards—and not only do the cards match, but the order of cards named perfectly matches the order of cards selected. This is pretty much as clean as this effect can get.

V4: my mouth is BURNING

In this variation, things get interesting as we demonstrate how you can perform an incredibly clean Out of This World using the principle this effect is based on. 

In this effect, the audience shuffles the deck, and then touches cards they think are red or black. Neither of you looks at the faces of the cards…yet the audience gets them exactly right!

V5: it’s going to be a long night…

In this variation, we return to the original plot and show you how to perform it under the cleanest possible conditions. 

BONUS: The PDF

After working on this trick over the course of a few months, we came up with some really strong ideas that we wanted to include in a write-up.

We won’t discuss them too much because we don’t want to give away the methods, but these bonus ideas will show you even more ways to make this routine stronger and cleaner. 

Now as a final disclaimer…

We have so much fun with this effect and we think you will too. 

Is it the kind of trick that will win FISM?

Almost certainly not. 

But will you smile ear to ear at how cheeky the method is while performing? 

If you’re anything like us, definitely.

That's certainly what this reviewer thought…

Here’s the deal:

For the next few days, this project is available for just £8.

But if you’re still unsure, we’d like to remind you about our ironclad 100% refund guarantee.  

If you watch the tutorial and don’t smile at the method, just send us an email and we’ll send you the £8 back with no questions asked. 

That means even if you buy this trick, perform it in front of your whole high school, gain reputation, win the talent show, and finally get the girl you’ve always wanted and still want your money back—you’ll have it before you can say “telepathy!” 

All that being said, in our opinion this is a complete steal.
