      He always Puts The Card at Same Spot Thema Jimmy only gets to Look at Fake Peace of Page (real Page is already torn out thats Why he doesnt open the hole book)
      At 1:53 Look closly as he quickly Takes out the card wirh the fake peace of Page and puts it in his Poket!
      The Torn page was in his shoe all along - rigged!

      It's not that it's fake. All magic is fake, but there's a huge difference between very talented sleight of hand tricks and just setting something up beforehand and then claiming you didn't. This "trick" requires virtually no skill outside of just a little acting.

    The 'Book Test' is one of my favorite illusions because it's one that you know can't be real, but at the same time you watch it happen and it's *very* difficult to come up with an elegant enough explanation for it if you don't know the secret. I've seen many variations on this illusion with different reveals at the end and all, but Dan White's version here was just fantastic. I love the addition of the dictionary and using the "code." It's brilliant in its simplicity, it was very elegant, and none of it seemed clunky at all. Surprisingly, a basic 'Book Test' is relatively easy to learn and to do, but the surprise on Jimmy's face here was legitimate and I don't believe at all that he was in on it. Very impressive. This is, by far, the best variation of the 'Book Test' I've ever seen.

      Robert Tapalaga You might've found a tutorial for 'a' book test on RUclips, but you didn't find 'this' book test on RUclips. What you're talking about- a basic, simple book test, should almost be considered a completely different thing from this book test. Most book tests require one of two things: a set of instructions for picking the word that are very restrictive and alert people to the fact that it's a force, or an altered book, probably one nobody's ever heard of. This one is different because it uses books that people have heard of and the word selection part feels as open and free and unrestricted as it possibly can. No RUclips tutorial is going to teach this trick because you won't have the right book to do it with. For this version you're gonna have to go to www.scamstuff.com/products/brian-brushwood-book-test and shell out -1200 bucks- *$700* because only 500 sets will ever be made. This is on another level from what you looked at. This is the kind of thing a world-famous magician would purchase for use in appearances on TV specials. This isn't your average RUclips tutorial, 'Ford-Pinto-version' of the book test. This is the '2019-Lamborghini-Aventador-Performante-version' of the book test.

    Read more for genuine reveal.
    The first effect is done with a trick card. The page had already been ripped out and planted in Jimmy's shoe before the show. The playing card had a secret paper on it resembling the corner of the page which could be stuck anywhere in the book to reveal the false page. From then on it's just a matter of acting and selling the trick. 1:37 See how he holds his hand to cover the gap between the false paper and the rest of the book.
    As for the Harry Potter trick, it is an effect called Book Test created and sold by Brian Brushwood. The book is gimmicked to have certain repeating long words places on every page of the book. Since he sells the effect on his websites, I don't want to give away the entire thing. But I'll leave it at the fact that the magician only needs a small amount of information to know the word, and he would have only had to memorize a few different dictionary pages.
    Hope this helps!

    Dan White makes his living as a magician. He would never "stage" it on live TV and risk exposure. I know for a fact that the audience member wasn't in on it and can think of a way or two that the page can end up in Jimmy's shoe without his knowledge. No sense saying it's fake- it's magic. Obviously, it's not "real". But it was entertaining.

      Weakest argument ever. He is risking nothing by staging a fake trick, only Jimmy needs to be in on the trick, which he clearly is. The woman is holding a trick book without her knowledge, and the member of the Roots is just opening up to the page he is told.

      You are being gullible Rick Pompa. Penn Jillette of Penn & Teller has said that more often than not, when an audience member is chosen "at random", it is a stooge. That would take care of half the trick. White knows the word and knows the page # etc. of the dictionary. This wouldn't work here, but I've heard that when someone is chosen from far back in the audience, when an usher leads the person down the aisle or backstage first, they are often asked to go along with the gag and say a certain word when asked to think of a word or a card.

      Probably because it's a doctored book with the word "halfheartedly" standing out on every page. But by using someone who's read the book, it sells the idea that it's the actual book you'd buy in the store.

    A few things: There is an editing slip-up at 6:32 (Dan White's hand jumps from outstretched to his chest instantaneously; whatever happened in between the cut likely reveals the shoe trick/set up); The page in Neil P. Harris' book is in a different spot at the end than in the beginning of the trick; The word "half-heartedly" is not found in The Goblet of Fire, though it is in the Prisoner of Azkaban (this takes away from realism more than it affects the trick at all); If Dan accounted for all these things (which he totally could), this would be an awesome trick!

    SPOILER:
    This is how he did the trick with the book that Jimmy had. He used two of the same book to do this trick. In the book that Jimmy has he had ripped the page out before the show and put it in Jimmys shoe. He then used the same page from a replicate book and cut out the top left corner, and taped one end of it to the back of the card. When Jimmy “picked” a page, no matter what page it was, he folded the card back with the rest of the book, but kept the part of the page he kept on the card on the front of the page that Jimmy really picked, making it look like he picked that page, and the whole time that page wasn’t really there

    • @jackcarter1897
      @jackcarter1897 3 года назад

      sPOilEr!!!
      That’s not even how the trick works. It’s an old mentalist trick. He has a coin inside the book on the page he wants to force. Try this yourself. Put a coin in the middle of your book and thumb through the pages and it will always stop on the page the coin is at. He just thumbs through the pages until Jimmy says stop and he speeds up to reach where the coin is so it automatically stops riffling through on to the page he wanted to force.
      The page that is ripped out is at the back of the book. Have a look for yourself. The page Jimmy picked was in the middle and the page that was ripped out is at the back. That’s because the book is set up to have page 272 in the middle along with pages such as 100 etc. that way when Jimmy looks for that page again, he’s looking in a total different area from where the original page he saw is.

    ok. So here are my observations:
    1) At 1:39, that card is in the middle area of the entire book. Toward the end, the ripped page looks closer to the end of the book.
    2) 1:39. On the bottom of the right (odd) page (I assume this is page 273), there is a space before the new paragraph.
    3) That space and paragraph disappear at 7:31. BUT!....
    4) When the page is replaced, the paragraph and space are there on the ripped page...if it is actually the same one page we saw earlier
    5) SO.... there are two scenarios here....
    A) The original page Jimmy was looking at was 270 on leaf 269/270; this would put the new paragraph on page 271 of leaf 271/272 (odd, right page)....this was eventually ripped out. Therefore Jimmy said the WRONG PAGE... OR...
    B) That was not even the page at all. For some reason, the location of the ripped page looked further toward the end of the book than where the card sat earlier.

    its the card, the page is attached to card, the king of hearts is printed other end of the page so when when we look from the back it just looks like a normal card,so whatever jimmy picks he will pick pg 272.

  • @PantherKraft
    @PantherKraft 7 лет назад +154

    it's staged as in he set up for the trick.
    1. he made the card stop at his page of choice.
    2. that page of choice was around the middle of the book, but in the end, it's near the end of the book. so obviously his page of choice was page 272 and it was printed somewhere random In the book so later on, when he flipped to 272, it would look like it was the page he read earlier.
    3. Each page in the Harry Potter book as one large word, which is halfheartedly. OR the book was rigged so if anyone was to open to a random page, it would open to the page where there is maybe 4-5 large words that he can easily memorize the page in the dictionary of those 4-5.
    5. 272 was planted in his shoe by the magician before he Jimmy put them on. How else would the word be sole??

    spoilers. I'm here after watching the reveal video (search 2017 fallon reveal) and it's a blast watching this unfold! the whole trick stems from that playing card... like why on earth is he using a random card riffle through a book? the other trick is the goblet of fire book, there were only 500 of those books made, sold for $1200 a pop. Really fun stuff. Basically just memorization, but the showmanship is what sells it!

    Well this wasn't all staged.
    When he riffles through the book with the card, the card itself is a gimmick. It has a piece of page no. 272 sticked behind it. So wherever he stops page 272 will pop up anytime.

      Hardik Tara or it's just a cover up for the "force" of the page with the first word "sole". If it were a real selection he'd just let him choose any word without needing a book. But it could be a gimmicked card too

    • @davidmtwigg
      @davidmtwigg 7 лет назад

      Hardik Tara pleased I figured it out b4 seeing your answer. His clumsy separation and realignment of the split apart card at 1:25 and the following coincidentally card-sized death grip on the top corner of the book confirms it.

  • @dimitreze

      That part didn't matter, though. She could have chosen any word, the guy is using an earpiece that tells him from a database what page the word is in the dictionary. He just needs about 10-15 seconds for his helper to type the word into the database and relay the answer to him.

I won't give anything away but about that Harry Potter book, looks can be deceiving. That's all I will say for now to prove that there were no plants for this performance.

  • @Naet93
    @Naet93 6 лет назад

    False front on the playing card so when lined up correctly with the page it pulls apart showing the false page number and presumably a few words making it appear to be a real page. You can tell by how he held the book with 4 fingers to cover the bottom of the false piece of paper, and how he had his thumb placed perfectly to avoid opening the book too far.
    The female in the audience was a part of his act. Perfectly placed, and stood out just enough to grab the average persons (Jimmy) attention. I had no doubt he was going to pick her before he even got to her.
    The dictionary was just for added effect. Which is why it didn't matter who Jimmy gave the dictionary to. The outcome would've been the same regardless.
    With the shoes, it's simple. Jimmy almost always wears the same shoes. It's just a matter of having a matching pair prepped and ready, then making the swap before he gets dressed.

  • @clintbrunke2074
    @clintbrunke2074 6 лет назад

    how its done. step one , nph's book. you force the riffle (any time a magician asked you to tell him when to stop a riffle, rather then you riffle your self, he is forcing the riffle ) this means no matter when you say stop he will stop in a predetermined place. now you notice in the video , dan white does not open the book up all the way, this is because the page is already ripped. when he clloses the boo and removes the card he folds the page quick and you can actually spot him pocket the page. now this trick requires pre set up . he had to "load a replicant page" into jimmys shoe. this is something magicians do all the time in some ones pocket or personal belongings.
    now for the harry potter book. this could be done one of a few ways . one the pages are fake and written so half heartedly is on most pages. or he memorizes large words in the book and their corresponding pages in the dictionary. this is way harder to do but I have seen some people do it. it is a fairly popular trick. so most likely they are fake pages. neither jimmy nor the auidence member are in on it.
    best way to know an audience member is in on it is if either the magician picks them him self or picks by seat number .
