This is one of the all-time great table card tricks. It is incredibly visual, deceptive, powerful and will leave your spectators unable to figure out how they correctly separated all the black and red cards in the deck.
This trick is officially known as "Out of this World" and was invented by Paul Curry. In Paul Currys book 'Magician's Magic' he describes magician Harry Green performing this trick Winston Churchill. This trick was so deceptive that Churchill was fooled 6 times in a row!
The best part about this card trick is that it is practically self-working and is very easy to do. Make sure you don't only practise the trick itself, but also what you are saying whilst you are performing the magic trick.

I've been performing this trick for years but it's better if you do a riffle shuffle at the beginning. Just arrange the deck 13 black 13 red 13 black 13 red then when you split it in half and shuffle it together they're only be one or two in the middle that might be messed up so when you pull out the four for the beginning of the trick you're all set up. The shuffle at the beginning of the trick take this trick to the next level. 👍

[@clifflaine7024]

I agree! This manner helps sell it. Great truck and repeatable, as Mr. Churchill found out.

[@kevvome]

This trick is special to me. In 1978 I was at home with a book on magic I borrowed from the local library. There were lots of tricks in this book with a guide on how to do them. I looked for the hardest one (which was the trick seen here) and I spent an hour or two learning how to do it and I finally cracked it. When I turned all the cards over just as shown here I saw that I had done it as perfect as anyone could do it. I was absolutely on a high with joy and excitement as I knew this trick was so brilliant that it would truly impress anyone that was shown it. The next day I went to my local pub and got a pint. The place was chocka and I waited a little while before I told everyone that they were gonna see a miracle card trick. Everyone gathered round to watch me and I went through my routine and finally turned the cards over to show the line of blacks and reds completely in the order shown here. There were gasps of wonder and surprise when I did this and I was immediately bombarded with ''Please show me how to do it'' and ''How the fuck DID YOU DO THAT?'' etc etc etc. Y'know what, I never told anybody how to do it . I only ever did this that one time and never again. I knew I could never get the feeling of total power I had over a room full of people that believed they were part of a dream of impossibility and craziness. This will always be my all-time fav card trick. Always.

[@urwholefamilydied]

I did a brilliant trick on my friend once, and regret to this day that I told him how I did it. Fuck it didn't even take that long to crack and tell him LOL, I was so excited about how brilliant it was I kinda just wanted to tell him. I definitely shouldn't have. The magic of it died that instant and he wasn't so impressed anymore. (He was going to the store to buy new drum heads and I told him I would predict what he was going to buy. I not only predicted that but predicted the brand of beater that he put on his kick drum. He was completely blown away when I got both correct, and even thought I had called the shop to ask the guy for my friends description and what he'd bought, which I hadn't. It was so good. Should have taken it to the grave).

[@Lyth]

@@urwholefamilydied How did you predict it then? Might as well tell us too!

[@urwholefamilydied]

@@Lyth There's not that many brands that make drum heads, I picked the 5 most popular and wrote them all down and put them in different pockets. Just had to remember what was in what pocket. As for the drum beater guard he bought, I just happened to catch a glimpse of it in the bag and went out to my car immediately to find a pen and write that down on all the papers. When he got to my car I said I have it written down on a piece of paper, and for him to reveal what drum head brand he bought. When he did I reached in the appropriate pocket and pulled out the paper. He was pretty blown away by it. I think I wrote on all of them some snarky remark too.. like, "Of course you bought Remo heads, just like a pussy". Something like that. When we got to our rehearsal space, because I thought it would be funny I pretended to grab something from my pocket, where I had then put all of the papers into, and they all fell out like I accidentally had done it, revealing the trick. It was a funny moment, but I wish I would have just kept him guessing. He had no clue how I did it. He thought I had called the store, LOL.

[@bman342a]

By the 6th time I would assume Churchill was sober?

[@sickerpuppies]

0:41 "Openly and genuinely shuffled the deck of cards in front on him" 3:25 "Perform an overhand shuffle for a more convincing.." One of these things is not like the other one.

[@KucheKlizma]

I think someone showed me some similar trick one time claiming the same anecdote about Churchill and I immediately asked to shuffle myself, then when the presenter declined I asked for a fair shuffling method. He tried the Zarrow shuffle - didn't convince me either. Then when he argued about what is fair and what is not, and I explained which shuffling methods are legitimate and how they actually work and must be performed - he declined again, then I stated that the deck is stacked. Then he showed me anyway, and I deduced that the deck must be divided by colors. Presenter was utterly frustrated. I am doubtful that Churchill fell for this one, stacked deck tricks are by far the most common and shallow ones.

[@13eetle13omber]

0:41 is definitely not a real shuffle lol. It is intentionally neat looking with the cards moving a lot to simulate shuffling.

[@muaj81]

this trick is called 'Out of this World' and every magician has his own version of it. Check out Lennart Green and Harry Lorrayne work on it. I havent seen the tutorial just the performance and can tell that the first shuffle is false. you need to spread the deck face up prior going into this trick in order to convince the audience. Lennart Green has his angle separation to divide the deck into reds and blacks.......this works

[@daggerholy2991]

[@blueshoes3432]

[@funjuror]

I have been performing this trick for over 40 years as a full time magician,and never thought of putting the change over cards in the middle face up( I have always silently counted to 24 then, pretended to find another red and black to turn face up Paul Curry's out of this world)Also very deceptive shuffle.This has never let me down and is a stunning trick.You never stop learning,thank you

[@susieromano7001]

Here's a tip if you want to take this trick to the next level. Arrange the deck 13 red 13 black 13 red 13 black. Then at the beginning of the trick split the deck in half and you could actually do a real riffle shuffle. So after that there might be one or two cards in the middle of the deck that are the wrong way so when you take out the four cards to begin the trick you're all set up. After learning this technique I've never had someone figure this trick out.

[@scottcampbell3940]

Thank you for this. It is the simplest execution of this trick I have seen. All of the other performances involve the magician rearranging the cards after the audience shuffles the deck. Yours is extremely simple and, therefore, the most amazing. The magician is doing nothing "odd" to the cards (i.e. rearranging cards after the shuffle), he or she simply "shuffles", pulls out the 4 cards and immediately hands the deck over. Every audience that I've shown YOUR execution to has been utterly flummoxed. Now, to those people that say, what if the other person demands a reshuffle or turns the decks over...you don't want those people as your friends. They are feeble, insecure people who don't appreciate the fun of magic. They are the people that, after someone tells them something that has impressed them or is important to them, says, "Oh, you did'nt know that?? I already knew that." Really fun people to share your life with.

[@curtzeek8818]

I would let people shuffle the cards but then I would go through and pick out the 4 aces. I rearranged the cards as I went through them looking for the aces. No one ever saw meputting the reds and blacks on top or bottom. I was very fast in doing it.

[@robertzeurunkl8401]

This is a truly diabolical trick. The deception is superb, especially the fact that the deck flip reverses the piles, but they won't notice it.

[@jimrizzo9117]

How do they know what pile to put the cards in to maintain red and black piles?

[@kwilson5832]

I practise and perform this trick fairly often. It still amazes me when I shuffle the cards, but still see all the reds together and all the blacks together! Sometimes, some stray cards end up in the 'wrong' half, but these can be used as the four cards that will be face up anyway. When I perform the trick, I tend to turn over the 'correct' pile first (as shown in this video), then say 'and I'll do the same with this pile' just before turning the second pile over. This helps to provide the illusion that you are doing the same action with each pile, even though they are slightly different.

@Order11110 I agree

[@JohnnyBfromOKC]

Wow! So simple! Yet so Brilliant

[@vinayk7]

For slow learners (like me :p), you might be wondering why Churchill's choice didn't affect the ordering why the deck wasn't messed up with a mixture of red and black cards? Well here's why 4:34 ---- 4:49 he is dealing only red cards RESULT = [ *left*- all red; *right* -all red except 1 at the bottom] 5:17 ---- 5:28 he is dealing only black cards RESULT = [ *left*- all red+black; *right* - all red except 1 at the bottom and 1 at the top] Now he just flips! and you can see those 2 extra cards taken out at the start were functioning just as a "marker"

[@xyzxyz6498]

But to determine the correct pile and the wrong pile, the magician needs to know the very first card which the other person guesses..how to know that when the magician is not knowing or seeing that very first card facedown which the pwrson is going to guess red or black?

[@MrJohnSmash]

@@xyzxyz6498 You don't have to put the first color correctly on the correct pile. You just need to know which color is coming up first. If it is Red, then I always put the red pile on the left. The first several cards can all go on the black pile, that does not matter.

[@Chrishf3721]

Best tutorial on OOTW that I’ve ran across on KZbin! Also like the music and back story to the trick. Very well explained. You just got a subscriber! Thank you!

[@TheLookingOne]

An improvement when selecting the 2 red and 2 black cards: - Do not take the 4 cards right in the middle of the deck (looks too contrived). - As you go through the deck, have someone else say stop to 'randomly' select the 2 red and 2 black cards. You vary the speed of going through the deck to ensure you have the necessary cards. - After pulling out each of the 4 cards, put them face down so as not to unnecessarily give away info about the stacked deck.

[@zerozero587]

you can also say something like "i like aces",and search the deck for 4 aces to start the trick

[@defiantlemming2039]

This was a demonstration for teaching the basics of the trick to the novice. Like any pursuit, one must learn the fundamentals -you cannot teach a child to read by handing them Ulysses by James Joyce - when they do not yet know the alphabet. 😉 For the intermediate prestidigitator these variations are fair suggestions. Of course, if one were a world-class, magician I am certain they could come up with infinite variations of this manipulation.

[@TheLookingOne]

@@defiantlemming2039 Yes. Great trick. On behalf of my grandchildren, thank you.

[@tonedeftonytv1047]

As a little side note: Churchill stayed up ALL NIGHT in bed until he finally worked out how the trick was actually done, it bothered him THAT much that he had been fooled. Admittedly, as most lovers of magic will know, it's much easier to fool a smart person, as they normally discount the basic and obvious. Excellent trick and one of my favourites.

[@goldenknight5146]

Churchill guessed all the cards correctly so he is a true magician. XD

[@Scripture-Man]

LOL

[@freakazoid4691]

Six times in a row!

[@V0rdan]

If Churchill asked him to perform it 6 times in a row, how could he reorder the deck to be half red half black while everyone looked at him?

[@OfficialRedDirtNurse]

I'd guess this story has some artistic license added to it, to enhance the effect.

[@jonnamechange6854]

But the deck is ordered each time at the end of the trick

[@austinlanham9270]

I noticed that the flip of the incorrect pile reversed the order, I just didn't pause the video to think that through at the time and know for certain that it was part of the trick. Also, for shuffling bit, it seems like one useful thing is that by picking out four cards you can probably correct any minor mistakes in the color mix.

[@andysbestlogger7977]

I google searched 'Churchill' and this shows up on the front page of my KZbin. At least the algorithms gave me something interesting to watch this time.

[@smid556]

This truly is an amazing trick! It will get really good reactions! If it's done smoothly and with no mistakes it will look like actual magic! This one is my go to magic trick to impress people!

[@rolandbrouwer]

5:12 I added another funny thing. When you give the pile to the spectator show the downside of the deck by accident. He/she will see a black card. I did this with a friend of mine by accident, wasn't ment to be. He thought: Aha, I'm going to put the last card in de red row, because I know it's black so I ruin the trick. Lol, the look on his face when the cards were revealed

[@douglasladd9478]

So simple! Love that you can do it right again, no setup

[@tonyanderson5123]

Churchill should've asked to shuffle the cards himself.

[@TheLookingOne]

Another improvement may be when 'shuffling' the deck: - At the beginning, alternate between 'shuffling' 1 card, a group of cards, 1 card, a group of cards, and so on. - In the middle, keep 'shuffling 1 card, 1 card, 1 card, and so on. - At the end, alternate between 'shuffling' 1 card, a group of cards, 1 card, a group of cards, and so on

For some reason I'm not understanding this. If all the cards aren't shuffled and half the upper is red how does he split to the black going back and forth?

[@andrewe4723]

Late reply but...One of the piles will be wrong (reversed). A simple sleight (flip) irreverses them. So you put red on the black and black on the red as long as you do the flip correctly at the reveal. Hope that helps. 4:50

[@philipauken5391]

When you put black cards on the red and black pile, if you then take the red card that represents the red cards, and switches it with the black card in that pile, that's how you do it.

[@almusallamtv]

Thats the trick xD

[@sryth1]

To put it a different way, the first two randomly selected piles are all red cards, where the second two randomly selected piles are all black cards.

[@יהודהמויאל]

When do you upload videos to the free class?

[@hudders11]

The best setup for this is quarter red, quarter black, quarter red, quarter black. Then one faro shuffle with the deck split exactly in half will put the deck into red black order with a real shuffle

[@liammcguigan1783]

Nice.

[@chaumas]

Yeah that's a neat idea. Of course, you can use any false shuffle you want as well. I thought the one in the video was particularly nice because it looks like a normal overhand shuffle, and exploits the fact that the rules are different when all you care about is color.

[@hudders11]

You can, but I prefer to do it this way, then there's nothing to see because you're actually shuffling. Nothing looks as real as real.

[@chaumas]

I suppose. But unless you're doing a tabled faro, I've always thought it looked a bit suspicious. The first time I saw it, my immediate reaction was "wtf, you can just push the cards together?"

[@liammcguigan1783]

Geraint Clarke talks about a similar idea of stacking the deck (in mnemonica, for example), then doing an anti-faro prior to the performance. Then you can do a completely genuine shuffle and end up in stack.

[@kurtissjacobs5618]

So--you have to put the two face-up cards exactly in the middle, right--where the color changes from all one color to all the other color?

Thank you, I am a huge fan. I love stories and have extensively researched both the Lincoln and Churchill routines. In fact, I find that the extension of the magical performances are big-time enhanced by extending, of course by first asking for and receiving audience approval, the back stories...each one hugely interesting and factually correct!

I knew how its done but this shuffling fooled me soo Hard. Well done !!

The guy who made this video did so, yea.

[@donpudliner1141]

Absolutely love the tricks and the presentation is awesome,thank you for all your great work😃😃

[@tristramcoffin926]

you are telling me how to do this and i still don't understand how it works.

[@tomelifeisjustonebig]

Tristram Coffin that’s because the explanation actually makes no sense.

[@erolgulbahce385]

Thank You even after Your explanation the trick is still attractive to see once again.

[@summer-wg3fv]

2:32 when he snapped I got a notification and it scared me😭😂

[@jacobweinstein7413]

2:57 on the right side if u look carefully the newly top cards were supposed to be red before

[@matthewhollier]

That’s exactly what people will miss; they’ll only notice that the black cards are all together, instead of realizing that they guessed all of those red.

Damn ur editing and trick was awesome keep it up

Cheers Shivam!

[@SidKneeGeo]

This trick can work on a few levels.I did this trick for some friends and they were amazed. I then showed them that all the cards were set up in half black and half red, then did the trick again and they were even more amazed the second time

[@mellow5123]

Yeah but he shuffled them...

Dude your videos are awesome you should upload a video every day I love you ♥❤

Thanks mate!

The BEST setup for this trick is a genuinely shuffled deck. Then you can go into 2-1 separation (Lennart Greene) as a memory-demonstration technique or whatever you like. 3 runs are always enough to have entire deck separated into red and black. Then you go into out of this world. Again, starting with a borrowed shuffled desk is 100x better.

[@gerwynmudge9193]

Despite a lot of people's complaints I really enjoyed this trick. Of course we know that a magic trick isn't real magic and involves slight of hand. It's for fun and amusement. I like when I don't know how a trick is done because I sit there for a long time wondering how they did it. That's part of the fun. Even if you can see how something's done, why not just let them do the trick and enjoy the experience. That's the fun of magic. If you want to find out how the trick is done then look it up afterwards instead of putting the performer on the spot and making it difficult.

[@acrylicpasta6969]

guess green got *_BAMBOOZLED_*

[@branthebrave]

He was the one who did it...

[@thevirtueoflove3935]

So what if the card is red on top, but they guess it is in the black pile incorrectly at the beginning? Then the first card is in the wrong pile unless a slight, force, or mental manipulation is performed. Or if you show them the card to show whether they are right or wrong in the first guess as a way to ensure that you put it in the right pile

[@branthebrave]

It's going to be red no matter what

Dear Oscar, The trick that fooled Winston Churchill is actually revealed at 2:53. It's when you consolidate your left hand (our right hand) pile then flip them over to find a set of BLACK cards!! Since the beginning card was red, anyone paying attention would expect a flipped set of red cards, then the black cards. Your 2nd pile cards showed in reverse. He (Churchill) was truly and utterly astonished how someone could screw up a simple card trick. Amazing!

[@banana8734]

Nice tricks

[@LMleet06]

This is a really powerful trick you fooled me, I thank you for revealing it. This trick has 2 moves really, you control shuffle the deck and do a slight at the end, so simple but so powerful. For other people that are looking for amazing magic tricks my all time favorite is 2 Card Monte that was first perform by David Blane years ago, that one is little more advance than this one but as powerful.

[@tippersteffi1]

I still don’t get it 😳

[@Vinterfrid]

Neither do I - since it says that it was Churchill who decided in which pile the card would go; but when it's "revealed" it's the dealer who decides which pile to put the card in. What am I missing here?

[@branthebrave]

It's pretty obvious... they're just all the same color for the entire first/second half

[@Vinterfrid]

Yes, but what if Churchill randomly placed the cards in a pile?

[@branthebrave]

He doesn't, the magician does, but they're all the same so it doesn't matter 3:49

[@Vinterfrid]

Okay, I think I got it - it doesn't matter which pile Churchill placed the cards in since at the beginning they all were red and in the end all were black. Thanks!

[@roninkegawa1804]

This is a devilishly great trick!!!

[@James-nv1wf]

So if the spectator wants to shuffle...you have to say no..kinda gives it away right there.

[@axlprudhomme4920]

James yeah that's a problem i had that you 😫🤐😪🤤

[@axlprudhomme4920]

James to*

[@bigcretin]

NO spectator should ever ask to shuffle. Just watch the fucking trick. Afterwards, you can smile and say "Could you have still done it if I'd shuffled at the start?". Penn and Teller don't get up on stage and start interfering when a magician is trying to fool them. Just watch and try and figure it out without being a dick.

[@narenderrohta3487]

Man.. Genius

One of the greatest card tricks ever and you call it a waste of time!? If you find magic tricks so boring, why even watch?

[@alexfischer4763]

How can I know,which card has to be on the red pile and which on the black pile? The Shuffeling part is clear!
