How To Easily Astound Anybody With This Extraordinary Mental Magic Trick

If you want to learn a quick and easy up close impromptu magic trick, look no further. This simple card trick will convince that you have unimaginable psychic powers and telekinetic skills. It's a great introduction into other card tricks, and will quickly make you the most popular person at the party or bar.

Here's how the trick will look to you friends. You're sitting around a table at a party or a bar, talking about whatever. You casually mention that you've recently learned some telekinetic skills. Obviously, their conversation will come to a dead halt as they demand a demonstration of your newly found gifts. Of course, since you've just learned these powerful skills, you can only move small objects. Of course, you tell them that you haven't learned to lift up pool tables or anything like that.

You produce a deck of cards, take one out at random, and place it on the back of your hand. You invoke the magical powers of Zeus, or your favorite god whenever you use your telekinetic powers, and the card magically starts to bend according to your powerful mental will. After the card has bent according to your immense psychic energy, you claim that you have only studied enough to bend one card, and you need a rest. Then you quickly steer the conversation back to whatever you were talking about before.

Here's the trick. Before you announce your special powers, rub some water on the back of the hand that you are going to place the card on. You'll need an inexpensive, non-laminated deck of cards. The cheap cards will be porous, and will naturally soak up that water that you have deftly rubbed on your hand. When it does this, it will naturally bend toward the curvature of your hand, amazing your friends in the process.

This is one of those tricks that require you talk a good game both before and after the illusion. If you simply say, "Hey guys, watch this," they'll probably guess the trick. But if you build it up, and tell an interesting story beforehand, (get it, before hand?) and quickly cover it up with another story after the fact, it will go over much better.

Of course, if you know any other simple card tricks (that don't require the whole deck, sine you've just ruined one of the cards) this would be a great time to pull them out. There are many simple tricks that don't require you to be playing with the whole deck. This is a great introduction to some fantastic tricks that you can entertain your friends with, or if you get lucky, start to attract a crowd of eager onlookers. Have fun.
