yes.... i know exactly how he did it... the thing is this is not a forum for disclosing secrets

What's bugging me is that you haven't taken any notice of what the mog has said.

The thing that bugs me is the ridiculous spelling, slang, lack of grammar, punctuation and the fact that you haven't read the Forum guidelines which ask people to not post messages in this manner. Any future messages posted in similar gibberish will be deleted.

By the look of the grammar, it appears that ZKWan86 was trying to send a text message!

I'm actually interested in this link having seen it. Without giving anything away would / could someone email me the name of the trick / effect so that I can ask my magic dealer about it?

Pardon my ignorance but that could I just have it confirmed that what I have just watched was a genuine card trick and not a camera / film trick. I don't want to know how its done, (okay I do but I know the rules and I'm not going to ask!), but I would love to just check that it was a genuine trick then I can settle back and contemplate how it might have been done.

Further, and I think this queston is allowed, can it be done with regular cards or does it require a gaffed deck? If its a real trick with regular cards I am going to settle back and think deeply about this one! My curiousity is aroused.

Hi Archie

I can confirm that it is a genuine card trick. I have it on order, DVD rather than the manuscript version and I can't wait until Xmas day comes - the wife will be well p***ed off with me by boxing day!

I won't name it here but thanks to one of the Mods who IM'd me the info on it.

Sorry to disappoint you but it's not a trick which can be bought, you're looking at pure sleight of hand with ordinary cards.

In that clip, that's what you have just seen--a clip of a whole routine that is as spectacular as that 26 seconds is. Regular cards, sleight of hand practiced to prefection.

I suppose, if you wanted, you could buy the explaination (if it's sold), and do it, but why? That's Lennart's Baby. Make your own baby.

It is amazing, I'll give you that. But don't copy it. Use it as inspiration. Use it as proof that thinking outside the box leads to phenomenal ideas.

Speaking of which.....outside the box...I just got me an idea of my own!
