Looks like the reason why David asked them to hold his wrists while performing was to block their view as much as possible with their own wrists so that they couldn't see the gaps properly
If you look carefully at the very beginning of the clip where db is holding the entire deck up for the player to pick his "random" card, notice how the cards at the top of the deck to the right are grouped more tightly together to A - prevent anyone in the room from noticing that they're all of the same suit and B - lower the chances of the player picking any of that suit in the first place Secondly when LeBron goes "which one do you want me to eliminate" David gives a deliberately inspecific answer so as not to trap himself should LeBron have picked diamonds!
@Anthony B Ok so on the logic is : Question : (choice) -> (result) 1st : Which do you choose Diamonds -> I'll only leave the diamonds Spades or Clubs -> Ok that's gone. 2nd : Which do you choose Diamonds -> I'll only leave the diamonds Spades or Clubs -> Ok that's gone, now it's only diamonds left.
bro thanks for this, amazing tutorial and explanation! Could you do a reveal for the trick he does over video call where he asks people to count down an amount of cards and the one on top is their card? Thanks
My friends would want to shuffle the deck by themselves, before I even want to begin anything. How would I avoid that? And what's the plan B if they pick a card from top?
If they shuffle it, you have to go to another trick. As for the picking a card on top, you tell them to tell you when to stop riffing through, and the first step is to get the top cards out of the way so you can force them to take a bottom card. Do this by shoving the top 13 over quick then slowing down to go through the rest, and if they try and call at the top, keep shoving and stop late
@@tomdv6049 thanks for the tip. What if they ask to hold the cards themselves? Once my friend wanted to do that and I told him if he wants to do the trick instead of me? I'm pretty sure David Blaine gets a lot of people like that. I'm just wondering how he would handle the ones are trying to be smart ass.
If your friends are being smart asses just don't tricks on them. Magic is for people who want to to be entertained not jerks who are always trying to ruin your trick. If they want to hold the deck try asking "why???" but ask it in a way that lets them know they are stupid for asking such a question
So you're telling me that lebron, who has the best vision in the nba couldn't tell that there were gaps in the cards when he basically had his eyeballs glued to the cards?
You don’t see the gaps unless you’re looking at it from a direct side angle trust me. Lebrons looking at it from like 4 foot up top he not gonna see the gap
The thing is, Lebron looked at the card being inserted back into the deck and David also showed the profile of the deck and there weren't any gaps. Not sure if this is what David did. Nice though.
Uber Steve I’m not convinced. MLT showed the profile of the cards and it was sparse. When David showed his card’s profile, it wasn’t sparse. Lebron even looked at the side. Rewatch it, man. David’s card deck was dense, no gaps, and he didn’t rely on a specific angle to fool the audience.
He explained if they choose the suit you chose for the trick you just say "we're gonna eliminate ALL other suits but that one" which to me would be alarming but I guess the average person wouldn't catch it or press the issue
Keep in mind Blaine is very careful how he phrases his questions. He always says "which do you wanna eliminate, etc". That means if someone says diamonds, he will reply back saying " you've eliminate diamonds as a choice, spades and clubs are gone from the deck." he also does things like puts diamonds last or asks his questions multiple times saying spades and clubs over and over again as choices. You'll notice in the video he keeps on saying spades and clubs are left, blah blah. Diamonds only mentioned as choices. wealthy/love diamonds. Human nature tends to want to keep diamonds in a deck and eliminate spades/clubs.
It happened to him on Jimmy Kimmel, where the audience member picked the suit he wanted to key. He tries to play it off as hard as he can that he intended to eliminate the first suit, and keep the second suit.
I always say name one black suit and one red suit...if they say the one I need I eliminate the one I don't need...I never really give them a choice even though they think they are choosing....works everytime
The trick that drives me crazy is the one where David produces a Queen that is holding the spectator's card...that is, the card has changed to have the spectator's card in the hands of the queen.
Anyone who believes in magic is just short sighted and unable to realize that there is always science behind every trick and that the magician just uses misdirection and the audiences desire to see the impossible against them. Great video ! I was wondering how this worked. 😉
@@nicklubrino2606 People like him come up with weak ass explanations to magic tricks just to satisfy their own ego and put a tick next to questions without bothering to go further...as long as someone finds a rational explanation they're looking for they'll happily accept it and move on. It's sad, in reality they're the ones fooled
“ Either way you’re going to shrink the FAN down of cards “ What the fuck does a fan have to do with anything ? Lol is a deck of cards called a fan or .... ? I’m truly lost lol
The King The shape of the cards in that position sort of resemble those makeshift paper fans. That’s why I referred to it as shrinking down the “fan” of cards.
Problem with this video is that youre saying if AD said diamonds david blaine would be fucked. There is no universe in the world in which david blaine would mess up a trick
This still doesn't seem right to me because David Blaine had the whole deck in his hand and he made different suits disappear so how do you explain that he had all 52 in his hand they were both holding his hand so how did they just magically disappear
so how does he do this trick compeletely surrouned not the spectators dont notice the deck. also when he askes them to hold his wrist, does he not care if they see the deck, or do they not notice?
My guess is when both Ad and lbj went to the room, David prob put the card at that time. When AD and LBJ walk to that room, I'm sure everyone looking at them.
@@Bidoof504 Trust me, people won't notice. You are right, they are looking at the deck, but they weren't paying attention on the thickness of the deck.
@@radityapoerwanto7018 I guess your right, its something I just need to try out for myself. I guess even if 1 person catches on, its still great reactions for the other 10 people watching.
why u dont do it the same way he did??? he had davis ans bron holding his wrist no long sleve shirt or hoodie and he just snap.his finger and the decks of cars was getting lower and lower explain that??
See right from the beginning it’s already difficult because you HAVE to make sure they draw from the middle. Imagine if they choose one from the first 13 ? Are you supposed to say “no not that one” lmao
But if David Blaine askedAnthony Davis : Which suit you want to eliminate and Anthony said diamonds ;then David couldn't say "Ok ,I will keep all the diamonds , because he said "Which suit you want to !!! Eliminate!!!!!!
you know whats the most disappointed about this... that you couldnt make the trick.dude.... so we.dont want explanations!! what a shame...ppl criticized what they cant do!!
Neat! Here's a video from 2012 where he does the same trick ruclips.net/video/2pMYisadXNo/видео.html At the beginning he shows the whole deck and clearly all 4 suits are present and they appear shuffled. The lady chooses club and in the end only hearts and the chosen club card remains. My guess is that he has another set of 13 hearts that he switches to when he's asking the lady to sign (so he gets rid of the entire deck and picks up a new set of 13 cards all from the same suit). And curiously, here too he says "which suit you want to eliminate?" as the first question.
This the poor man's version of David's tricks, there's too many variables you can't explain with this.. you show me how the hell he stuck an icepick thru his hand than we can talk...
Lmao idk what you’re talking about this is a pretty solid explanation for that one trick he pulled with AD and bron, the video never said “DAVID BLAINE ICEPICK TRICK REVEALED” so I honestly don’t know why you’re demanding that
Bro you obviously have a trick deck the symbols on your card represent the suits and what card it is in that suit I use are used to have plenty of Treck decks you are not a magician You just have a good memory Of the certain tiny little markings that are on the four corners of the post looking objects on the back of the card
Nami Swan He didn’t know for sure. If Davis chose diamonds as the suite to eliminate, Blaine would have changed the story to have it make sense that diamonds were the only suite left.
Otis Sullivan you can see him take the other suits from the split and put it into his pocket literally right after AD grabs the card. In that video it’s like 0:14sec in.
Bullshit. I watched the video closely, his deck didn't have any gaps between them. What you showed is something I'd expect from an amateur magician, not something of David Blaine's calibre.
It might seem easy to notice at first but remember David Blaine has perfected his craft for so long so he sleight of hand must be insane
He doesn't use sleight of hands, he doesn't believe in them, his wrists were held 🤦🏽♂️
Looks like the reason why David asked them to hold his wrists while performing was to block their view as much as possible with their own wrists so that they couldn't see the gaps properly
If you look carefully at the very beginning of the clip where db is holding the entire deck up for the player to pick his "random" card, notice how the cards at the top of the deck to the right are grouped more tightly together to A - prevent anyone in the room from noticing that they're all of the same suit and B - lower the chances of the player picking any of that suit in the first place
Secondly when LeBron goes "which one do you want me to eliminate" David gives a deliberately inspecific answer so as not to trap himself should LeBron have picked diamonds!
The way he listed the suits, he had diamond last and said the other suits louder, kinda psychologically baiting them away from diamond.
Anthony B Correct
@Anthony B He does have a point though, mentioning Diamond last and in a soft way could mentally bait them away from Diamond.
@Anthony B Ok so on the logic is :
Question : (choice) -> (result)
1st : Which do you choose
Diamonds -> I'll only leave the diamonds
Spades or Clubs -> Ok that's gone.
2nd : Which do you choose
Diamonds -> I'll only leave the diamonds
Spades or Clubs -> Ok that's gone, now it's only diamonds left.
Wow, I actually like the way you taught this better! I just revealed the trick he did with Jamie Foxx, let me know what you think!
Hester23BearsCH Thanks Hester! Great to see you posting again. I’ll make sure to check out your reveal on the Jamie Foxx trick!
also if they said eliminate diamonds, david would just say "ok we will eliminate everything except diamonds
Jonathan Chung Yes, that is probably what he would have said.
Yes but didn’t be ask AD which one he wants to eliminate? Then Lebron asked him “which one to eliminate” so I guess he just got really lucky....
He had like 6 people behind him and he didnt have any hoodie on im sure the other lakers would have said something

0kazn Uan9 this is what I’m thinking too
Yes..lol
He was looking at the deck from above since he's so tall which makes the spaces between the cards less obvious.
@julianman - he bent way down to look at the deck. His head was so close. Wouldn’t he have noticed the gaps?
You don’t see the gaps unless you’re looking at it from a direct side angle trust me. Lebrons looking at it from like 4 foot up top he not gonna see the gap

What if lebron chose the diamonds how can you adjust? Plus bavis and bron are holding david blaine‘s hand
Holding the hand was done right before pressing down.

lebron asked him “to eliminate?” so thats not possible lol

Can you send the link please?
good hand were being held
Lebron is watching this. Of course revealing magic sucks for the industry.
One guy had a pretty close look at the cards, watched them from the sides and the bottom. He would have seen if this where only 14 cards?
But how he knew what cards he wanted them to eliminate 🤔🤔🤔🥴🥴🥴🥴
I'm having trouble with how to do the illusion with the 13 cards, someone hyelp me pls
thanks for the share .. i do also magic tutorials ..

man that takes a lot of skill
You can just swing cut and do a one handed fan and let them pick a card from the bottom pile
but david blaine was always with a bunch of lakers staff surrounding him right, javale mcgee also never left i think
What’s the plan if they chose a card off top?
I started looking for the video after I watched the video. But how does he know what card they' choose unless they in on it
