A Selection of mental trick
observations and ideas that you can improvise on.
1. “Think of any card” it's a wild guess but a spectator
will almost always think of the Nine of diamonds,
Ace of spades, Queen of Hearts or the
Six of Clubs.
Have each of those cards hidden on you in different
pockets, remember which card is where so that you can reveal the
hopefully chosen card.
2. “Pick a number between 50-100 with even and different digits.” Answer: 68.
3. “Pick a number between 1-1,000” Answer:333
4. Fan a set of cards with one face card and
the 4H in
the center, nine times out of ten the spectator will pick the four
because it's in the center and it appears uncommon. (i.e. 7C,AD,4H,KH,9D).
Have
a duplicate 4H, already slipped into
the spectators pocket and ask them to check the pocket after they
have hopefully selected the 4H from
your cards.
5. Borrow a coin from someone, secretly switch
it with an already bent coin that you had in your
hand and have them hold your coin in their hand.Tell them to concentrate
and imagine that the coin that they are holding is bending. When
they open their hand to examine the coin, they will think that
the coin has bent while in their hand. Tell them that they have bent it with their mind! Just collect a coin and carefully bend it in a vice prior to
performing the trick.
Say some Blaine like things to help your magic such as: “Let
me show you something strange, I'm going to try something, I've never
done this before, It's bizarre, Do you (Did you) feel that? That's
crazy, That's scary, Can I try something with you?”
