[@jeffreydonadio2081]

The card trick was set up before he cut the deck in half. Notice that he used the ace to mark where he needed to cut it... he could have used any card, as long as he divided the deck at exactly that particular card! Once each person had their cards, shuffling them didn't matter, because the order of the cards didn't matter... keeping his separated from hers was all that mattered, and by turning cards over as they exchanged them, his were always facing up in her stack, and were always facing down in his. When she turned hers over to pass them to him, any of his cards that were facing up in her stack would be facing down again in his if she passed them back to him, while any of her original cards would end up facing up in his stack. It didn't matter how many cards were exchanged as long as they kept flipping them over as they passed them back and forth. The cards that eventually were face up at the end of the trick were in only one half of the deck when he divided it originally at the ace. They were set up to make all the predictions come true at the end of his trick. I never saw this trick before, and I only watched the video once, but I'm fairly certain that this is how it was done!

[@Mavericktaylormusic]

A+

[@SuperLusername]

And he has to remember at least one card from his half of the deck and set it facing upwards while making it as if he was doing randomly, right?

[@froodyfellow6857]

Jeffrey Donadio The 23 face up cards and all the predictions were true for the 23 he originally gives her pre-split. It never matters how many she turns over and puts on his side, or how many he turns over and returns to hers (even cards previously flipped). But neither person can turn over cards in their own stack. Then at the very end, he makes sure to flip over his entire stack before combining it with hers, leaving her original 23 cards to be face up in final fan.

[@froodyfellow6857]

Froody Fellow The reason some people insist there are 24 face up, is because the girl sitting next to him messes up the cards during a flip/exchange, and screws up the trick, so they filmed it in two takes and edited it together.

[@casperreyns5326]

Brian. I know a magician should never reveal all of his tricks, but I've been watching this video countless times and I still can't figure it out so I guess I will just have to ask you straight. How do you get your hair to be so spiky? Awesome video by the way, thank you for teaching me how to become the life of the party and helping me with my social anxiety through interesting bar tricks!

I felt SO happy that I knew exactly what you did before you started to lay out the predictions. And then it waned a little when I realized that we were SUPPOSE to understand how you did it.

[@locutusdborg126]

Terrifically entertaining video. Nice trick at the end. Thanks for the effort, and please ignore the unwarranted criticisms. Some people are deeply unhappy and take it out on public figures. Their criticism says more about themselves then their targets. Put differently, haters gonna hate.

Watch it carefully and you should be able to figure it out. Try an experiment doing the trick exactly has he does but separate the two piles initially into red and black. Then do the trick. It should make sense after that.

[@khalidanwary]

How did you do the last trick!!!

[@quebec269]

Simple, for the preparation, you need to take out every card you will predict, you write them down on something, in his case, he took 23 card, 12 random red card, 10 random black odd card and the 6 of space for punch. Once you did that, you put it back on the bottom of the deck and you choose a key card to know where are your predict card. In his case, it was the ace of space, I think. Now you got that, what you want for the performance is having all those "random" card face up and the reste face down. What he did was splitting the deck of card in 2 half, he search his key card to plit it well. To make it more random and having for the misdirection, he ask them to shuffle their card and he shuffle his own card. Now the move come, what you want is having all your card face up and shuffle, to do that, you put some of them reverse in her deck while she continue shuffling. to make it more fair, you ask to do the same, even if she put back your card, it won't change the side(face up/down) of the card. When they are tire of shuffling, you took all your card, reverse them and put in back on her deck. now you prediction is set. Sorry if I'm not clear, I'm french ._. by the way, great trick :)

[@tails5516]

[@hudinator4206]

Same WTF

[@gipek]

haha me too!

[@RadDadicals]

You are right. You can see at the end that he flips ALL cards in his pile over, making all her cards now facedown and his cards face up. He knew where to cut the deck when he split the cards(the Ace of Spades). The deck was rigged pre-trick, thus his prediction works.

[@blacksperrow]

OMG am I the only one seeing that there are clearly 24 cards facing up, he just scamed his own prank -_-

[@drew32086]

***** it was only 23 -_- pause if you need to, but the count is only 23

[@OliviasMagic27]

I have a method which I won't reveal purely for the sake of scam school and the creator of this trick. It's a pretty easy method which doesn't involve too much skill, more so just being weary of your spectators. No deck swap, no extra cards, however there is a quick set up and from there it is almost self-working.

For you who don't know how the second trick is done, look up some lennart green, I won't tell how it is done, but the trick is called "Rainman" and there are no deck switches.

[@lgitosh12345]

Would also like to know how you did the card trick...really amazing. Any link to how to do it will really be appreciated. Cheers.

[@no-trick-pony427]

I found out how the card trick works just by watching the video. So if you have fun taking on riddles you might want to consider solving it on your own before reading this. Explanation of the card trick: TL;DR: The card deck is preperated. All the cards showing up at the end are the cards he takes when splitting up the deck. None of her cards will face up. He ensures this by the way cards are passed which acutally doesn't shuffle the cards the way you might expect. Long version: Look at the beginning when he splits up the cards. All black cards in the deck he takes are "favorable" cards (odd cards and the 6 of spades). Guess what? They are exactly the cards that will face up at the end. He starts by flipping over some of his cards and giving them to her. ALL of her cards facing upwards are his cards now. She now picks some cards (remember: cards facing down in her deck are her cards and will face up afterwards. Cards facing up in her deck are his cards and will face down after the flip) flips them over and passes them to him. All of her cards facing up will still be his cards. All of his cards facing down will be his cards. The other girl also flips over some of the cards and passes them to him which absolutely doesn't matter - cards facing up in her deck will still be all his cards, cards facing down in his deck will still be all his cards (either they were facing down from the beginning or passed to her, facing up and then passed back, now facing down again). Note that they could pass around cards to each other infinitely without changing the fact that all her cards facing up are his cards and all his cards facing down are his cards. He now has only one thing to do left: When putting the two set of cards together he has to flip over his set of cards so that all his cards facing down will now face up (and the cards facing up in his set, which are all her cards) will face down.

[@BanditXVIII]

Watch him count the red cards carefully. You'll catch him counting two red cards on the 3 of hearts at 8:33. Double check with some pause and count of your own without him dictating the pace of the count.

[@shwood]

sorry bro. Every so often, I ACTUALLY PERFORM A MAGIC TRICK.

[@VKingMD]

WOW! You look like a totally different person with out your Bart Simpson hair!!! I like it. Also it's much better than going audio only like you said in the last vid.

[@UbiquitousCrum]

Great trick. Only thing I would say is, when he split the cards, it was obvious to me it was a pre-determined spot, as the ace of spades was the last card in the left pile. Pick a more random card, like the 4 of clubs or something.

[@mitch5991]

I've heard of those ;-) But I'd really like to learn that prediction trick - was just curious where I would have to go to learn it. Thanks - it was really an awesome trick. I especially like the way the prediction was a multiple - it really keeps the audience hanging on for a while.

[@cocon16_PW]

Okay... 1. Prepare the cards which are face up in the end of the trick and make your prediction about them. 2. Set them on top of the deck and split the deck 6:37 to have them in your package. 3. Mix the card as seen in the video. 4. Flip your package 7:40 while putting them together. 5. Presentation.

[@paulvincent7653]

Watched the card trick over and over, can't see how the mixing wasn't random. I mean they randomly grabbed piles of cards, some were never flipped, others flipped once, others twice - no idea how this is done! Any chance of an explanation?

[@CrAzzYDeViL99]

that first sponser was good lolz!

[@froodyfellow6857]

Nice trick, and very simple to figure out, just watch the video in 1080p and slow motion. There are only 23 face up cards, to those who think there are 24. (I thought so too at first, they cut together two separate tricks, but if you ignore his counting out loud, and count yourself there are 23!)

[@scamschool]

Froody Fellow Nah. This was definitely just one performance of one trick. (I mean, we're not above doing that kind of thing, but in this case you're just a lil' bit wrong.)

[@froodyfellow6857]

Upon rechecking, I stand corrected, sorry. I must have gotten another video confused, had so many of your video tabs open, love your stuff btw.

[@jeffreydonadio2081]

+Wesley Hop ... Please read my comments above if you want one possible explanation.

[@DJBEE007]

my gues is that when is is givin the card at 6:38 you can see every card that are gonna be face up at the end!!! after that the only move you want to do is at 7:41 when brian is saying (blup blup blup he is reversing all of the card that were face up and needed to ba face down and the opposite!! Great trick ahaha !

[@TheRealSwayy]

Your New Hair Looks Wayyyy better!!

[@sinisterz45]

around 6:39 if u watch carefully when he splits the card. check out half the deck (near the cigs) with the pre made predictions, then he just flips it over to her when shuffling...

[@shwood]

yeah, it showed up in his most recent video. I was a bit bummed about that.

[@derekchapelle4757]

Hey Brian if you didnt please do one cause that trick is SWEET

[@DiZh0]

Spoiler Alert for Card trick: Notice how he splits it at the ace of spades, cause thats an easy card to recognize. At that moment he has the 23 cards of the prediction. And those 23 cards are face down at brian side. When she transfer cards they are face up, keeping the 23 down. When he switches his cards to her, they become faceup. His facedown + her faceup cards are the 23 of the prediction. Do a correct combine at the end and its done.

[@spyuggy]

That prediction trick was awsome

[@dot319]

Here's how he did the card trick: The cards he keeps at the beginning are the 23 cards that will end up face up. During the switcheroo, these 23 cards will always be either face-down in his deck or face-up in her deck (just think about it). If she gives some of his cards back during the switcheroo, they will be face down again in his deck. In the end, he just flips over his deck, so now all the 23 cards he began with are face up. You're welcome! :)
