Why Did This Magician Buy 12,000 Decks of Cards? | Interview Clip | Profoundly Pointless

[@milkboxshow1416]

“My character does not make mistakes” I think this is the first time I have seen him out of character

[@profoundlypointless]

In the full interview, he talks about how he tried out different characters before this one hit. It's an act....but I also think it's closer to his real personality. Just played way up

[@kensurrency2564]

hulk hogan is always in character that’s the secret

He doesn't mean he's playing a character. He means it in this sense of the word: "the mental and moral qualities distinctive to an individual."

[@escapegulag4317]

I have no knowledge on card tricks but from what I have seen so far while binge watching card tricks on youtube, Jason is by far the best.

[@bennyblanco675]

This guy really is one of the best on this planet

[@profoundlypointless]

I was impressed by how seamless it was.

[@gasser5001]

I've watched and studied a lot of Ricky Jay and Jason is, BY FAR, the best I've ever seen. I don't want to do Ricky a disservice by saying Jason is better but... Jason is an absolute MASTER of the cards. No one alive today holds a candle to his talents.

​@gasser5001 are you familiar with Richard Turner? Dude is blind and does this, just as good, if not better than Jason

3 to 4 years practicing a trick before he performs at my Moms house is dedication.

I love how Jason is just so good but most people have no idea of the level of hard work dedication practice and growth midset he constantly demomstrates!

Sick interview with a great magician

Thanks for checking it out!

[@JamesRMagic]

I love Jason, his sheer dedication to his art is an inspiration to anyone that handles a deck of cards 😍

[@thisforbirdie]

Jason! I’m so happy I’ve stumbled on these videos of you being interviewed and talking about your amazing skills versus only seeing you on Instagram. Great stuff truly great stuff!

[@marksimpson2321]

'Full-time job' 'Practised from 1000 till 1am ' 'it's a five to ten year thing' .... world class expertise!

Such a Great magician

[@drdalewisely]

Great little interview and a fun story about getting snagged by that woman.

[@johnmeye]

Jason’s the best🥴👍

[@wallaguest1]

i don't understand it. Bicycle Rider Backs are all over the world and printed probably daily, why he say they are no longer manufactured?

[@profoundlypointless]

He's talking about a specific type.....apparently there were a few really good years where the quality of the cards was really good for what he does.

[@bmoulas]

Great interview!

[@kevinrox666]

It might not be "magic", but it's still impressive the amount of deck control he has. He can make the entire deck factory reset itself with a few shuffles.

[@curtcoleman]

I once had a mouthy ten-year-old girl point at my hands, and loudly exclaim, "he's picking up two cards!" during every single trick. Even when the trick didn't involve a DL.

[@musicfreak21]

Some KZbin help if I may Add [CLIP] in the title to tell us viewers they can go into your video list to find the full interview if it exists (it also wasn’t in your video description) Can’t wait to watch the whole interview !

[@profoundlypointless]

That's a good idea. Thanks for the feedback. Always appreciate people taking the time.

[@williamlowe7718]

He has that performance posted on his channel...his shtick while performing is as impressive as the actual work that he does.

[@profoundlypointless]

I was impressed. He really does completely fool you

[@dontknow3949]

Me who just bought like 200 decks of cards thinking I’m gonna be good

[@profoundlypointless]

Even 200 is a massive amount of cards. I mean 12,000, what is that, 50k worth of cards

[@KornPop96]

Bikes are great, but they're notorious for being off center.

[@mikeodell5915]

I love your cardistry respect

[@jrjubach]

So THAT’s why you have all those decks behind you in the vids.

[@tyronejoihnson7046]

Vernon, Marlo, used the same deck for months. Clowns by 12,000 decks in advance.

[@AnantMall]

Getting a magician and card worker, this guy probably spends the most time with cards of an humans.. top 5 atleast

[@blackbeardgoatjr2434]

You can literally see the bottom dealing of the kings if you just pause the video

[@hotshotnewengland]

He shown that he is not bottom dealing before by putting tye specific card in the middle and he has a black card on the bottom. He has also shown himself grabbing in slow action only the top cards with this specific trick. 🤷‍♂️ you ain't the first one to think this and he tries to prove every theory to be wrong by going through why it's wrong

[@blackbeardgoatjr2434]

@@hotshotnewengland Pause it and see for your self. He's bottom dealing

[@Incognito1786]

@@blackbeardgoatjr2434 go frame by frame? He had either a short or a video recently where he explained how he keeps track of cards. Basically, his shuffles are real, but not completely randomizing the cards like you'd think. It's kinda genius, if you think about it. Casinos shuffle cards so you know they're not cheating, but someone really could be even with those shuffles.

[@blackbeardgoatjr2434]

@@Incognito1786 He's not dealing from the top when he deals the kings. It's either from the middle or bottom. I think it's from the middle as he takes out the kings, puts them in the middle, cuts the deck, kings are on top of the bottom half of cut deck. You can clearly see it you just have to pause it at the right time to get it because it's super fast.

[@Incognito1786]

@@blackbeardgoatjr2434 yeah he keeps track of where they are in the deck, so he can cut to them at any point. That's what he was doing in the video I mentioned. He's basically moving around 1 or more cards and keeping track of their position. I dunno why everyone keeps saying bottom dealing. I mean, try doing what he does, how you think he does it,, while talking, and see if it's as clean as how he does it. Bet it won't be.

[@lethalwolf7455]

This guy is one of the best in the world, but if you are just getting into card magic, do not attempt his tutorials. Just trust me

[@acabado]

WTF? Bicycle stopped producing cards ?

[@profoundlypointless]

They stopped producing that specific type.

[@jjchello]

He bought 12000 decks because they were custom made to his exact specification of markings and shape for physical feel of which card is which suit and value. There is no way you can hand him a deck from your own home and he can preform these tricks. Bicycle’s website specifically advertises that they do this for anyone. Not knocking Jason’s craft here at all. He is the GOAT! Just saying his decks aren’t simply standard.

Asks if being handed an old deck would throw Jason off the VERY MOMENT after Jason explains that he practices with old decks so that he would be comfortable in that situation! Interviewer please learn about your ears.

[@eiyp3]

You learn about your ears, brother, watch it again, smh

[@andydurance478]

They actually still sell these cards now so they are still making them.
