The Easiest Card Trick In The World | Magic Trick Tutorial

Hope you all enjoyed the short! This was a short tutorial video on the easiest card trick in the world. In the short I explain how to do a really simple card trick. This is one of the first magic tricks that a lot of people learn and it is great for beginners. I would classify this as beginner magic. This is also a great magic trick for kids. All you need to do this trick is a deck of cards. Hopefully you found this useful and learned something from it. Let me know how this works for you when you try it. Thanks again for watching, and I'll see you next time!

For everyone criticizing my double lift here is my progress: kzbin.infoG1JMMROB4Iw?feature=share

[@TheTallDude]

That's what I was gonna way lol sorry

[@MineCoder-xr9vs]

Here is a little tipp: Show all cards before you make it, then put them together and make a little pinky break under the second card so that you can do it easier and it looks more normal

[@Allanhorns]

It takes time to master. It's fine if there are slipups. You're not claiming to be a master. And besides, many of the people who are being the harshest probably don't practice magic, and the others who do, if they don't give constructive criticism then their ego proceeds them. The meaning of the fraternity is to help each other, give advice to coming ups and protect the secrets within. If they aren't being helpful, even through harsh criticism, then they are forgetting the meaning of it all. Constructive criticism is proper, just being a-holes is not.

[@Allanhorns]

Try practicing with a Svengali deck. Many magicians I know say it helps a lot because it trains the hands and brain to double lift and slightly bow the cards so they look as one. Then, once mastered use a standard deck and corner flip until you can grab end to end and flip as one. It's all about training the hand and brain, the illusion will follow.

[@Tex100]

@@Allanhorns Love this mentality! I always try to think like this when people criticize my work! It's a process, and I'm still nowhere near the end.

Simple yet effective. I encourage you to work on your DL so that it looks natural. You have a tight grip when you do the turn over. Relax and turn it as if it were one. Just let them drop on the deck. They won't split

[@ministryofnonsense3692]

DL is not an “easy” technique. The effect shown here is certainly simple, but I wouldn’t call it the easiest trick. Keep practicing that DL friend 🤙🏻

[@springbloom5940]

Right?

[@bjquebedeaux3597]

Definetly not easy! I'm just learning and not anywhere comfortable enough to perform it. I still pull off 1 or 3 cards at times! Very difficult sleight to get good at

[@sagitswag1785]

? The double lift is literally the easiest sleight. Its literally the first sleight you learn... youre making it sound like he is telling you to do the bottom deal or something...

[@ChespiritoChavo322]

​@@sagitswag1785if it's so easy, why does it look so bad and obvious when he does it?. Because it is easy in theory, but hard in practice (to be a good, invisible double lift)

[@sagitswag1785]

@@ChespiritoChavo322 His is bad because he didn't practice enough. DL is hard if you are a beginner, but in the grand scheme of card magic, DL is the easiest sleight you can do... Maybe in a few years you'll realize how elementary a DL is compared to sleights that are actually considered hard.

A tip is that you can litteraly throw the card in the air and catch it and they won’t seperate so don’t hold it too tight otherwise it’s obvious

[@Elainmacmillan]

This trick fooled my mom when I showed her the video she was still fooled but when I told her how the trick works and then she was not fooled anymore

Use pinky finger to release the two cards one by one and hold it to lift.

Easy trick at the end too. He took both cards and put them in the middle for him to flip the third card.

[@Tex100]

Close! I actually just do another double lift at the end 😂

[@ethanmurdock1125]

This only works with people who can't tell one card from two cards, which isn't very many people

[@Tex100]

Works on a lot more than that. Double lifts are extremely common in magic and unless people are right over your hands (like a camera) then most of them can’t tell

[@mitra2.0]

Thanks❤

[@Tex100]

No problem!

[@howtodrawstuff194]

Poeple who notices that the card he showed at the start was different to the one he showed at the end

[@channelx92]

It's still a double lift. That definitely takes practice. It's not something you could do consistently right off the bat.

[@Tex100]

Yeah but there are ways to set it up easily beforehand. Doing a traditional double takes practice, but just pushing off two cards while you talk to someone is fairly easy.

Peeling off two cards as one card is called a "double lift"

[@Tex100]

Yep! I didn’t outright name it in the video though since this is a simplified ambitious card trick and you can do it by starting with the two cards instead of “lifting” them

Also what’s your favorite cards? Just classic bicycles? I have red and blue and golden nugget casino cards (without the cut edges 🤢)

[@Tex100]

I’m not sure on my favorites, but I almost always perform with bicycles. They’re relatively cheap, have a very nice finish, and they’re the most commonly used so people don’t think anything is off when they see them. Other cards are cool to collect and show off, but nothing beats a set of rider-back bicycles for normal performances. If you focus more on table/casino magic though, I also recommend checking out Bee Casino cards. They don’t have a border so some moves look better with them.

What if they wanna shuffle the deck

[@Tex100]

Good question! This is a short visual trick so they shouldn’t even have time to ask if you present it the right way. Doing this trick I would say something like “take a look at the top card. (Do the double lift). Watch. I’m going to take your card and put it into the middle of the deck. Does here look good? (Push the card into the middle of the deck). Now I just snap my fingers and the card jumps right back to the top of the deck. (Flip over top card).” Hopefully you found this helpful! You can always experiment and find your own phrasing that works best for you.

You flip over 2 cards at once, showing the 2nd card from the top. You flip both cards back over. You take the top card and put it in the middle of the deck. You snap your fingers and flip over the top card. It is the card that you initially showed the spectator. Hopefully that helps.
