Card Vibrations
Preparation
Arrange the ace to ten of any suit (eg. diamonds) on the bottom of the pack, with the ace on the very bottom.
Performance
1. Fan out the cards face down, keeping the lower cards bunched together, and ask the spectator to pick a card.
2. Hand him/her the rest of the pack and ask them to place their card on top. Then ask the spectator to make a complete cut, burrying their chosen card. (Usually the spectator will cut about halfway and not disturb the cards at the bottom).
3. Ask the spectator to turn the pack face up and touch the top card, saying that you will sense its vibrations. Then, with the pack still face up, ask the spectator to make another complete cut.
4. Keep asking the spectator to cut the pack until any of the cards you prepared at the beginning appears on top (ie. the ace to ten of your chosen suit)
5. Ask the spectator to turn the pack back over, and depending on the card that was on the top (now on the bottom) you can tell how many cards down their chosen card is: Ace = 1 card down Two = 2 cards down Three = 3 cards down Four = 4 cards down Five = 5 cards down Six = 6 cards down Seven = 7 cards down Eight = 8 cards down Nine = 9 cards down Ten = 10 cards down
6. Touch the top of the pack, telling the spectator you can sense their card's vibrations. Proceed to tell them how far down their card is. Surely enough, you were right.
