This is a routine I've been working on for the last week or so (mostly practicing the leaping card move, but I'm getting pretty good now!)
It's based on "Stabbed Coinicidence" which is on Gerry Griffins "Complete Card Magic" series. I saw Tomas Medina use a card flicked up and caught in the deck next to it's mate in his cardiologist's deck routine and thought I'd try it with this.
It's really difficult to get this trick on film but it's only a quick demo I put togther. hope you enjoy it

Absolutely brilliant mate
I had the privilege of an advanced screening, and I can say, I was WELL impressed

You wont find much better anywhere and it's nothing - a rigmarole with a few bits of paper and lots of spiel. That is Mentalism

That's pretty cool. I'm gonna look at the Complete card magic version and compare.
One question. Is that "mikes move" from Devils picturebook at the beginning? I think it's mike anyway.

Yes it is. I've thought of using a Convincing Control instead but mine sucks... and this is better so I used this for the video.
I love it when I've done this for spectators. The original trick has been great for me...but with this leaping card idea it really gets their attention!

Evmeister,
That was well performed. I loved the leaping idea! The only things is that once you caught the King your hands moved around a little too much and also went of screen for a second which made hard to follow what you were doing.
The soundtrack was pretty cool too!

I know this was a bit dodgy in the video, but getting this on film was really difficult. The real world performance of it is much more streamlined and as far as what you saw in the video, it really is "What You See Is What You Get". It's my modification of a great routine which makes it look even more impossible IMHO.
