Hey guys - do you like card trick videos with a bit of maths? Do you want more? Thumbs up so I know whether to shoot more!
- Brady
Yes please make more videos
Love 27 card trick
Lol, it really feels like he doesn't want to reveal his secrets. :P
Here's my slight variation on this trick:
If N1 < N2, put the second "fail" card on the bottom before counting the difference.
If N1 > N2, put the whole second pile underneath as Matt did.
That way you can be consistent with how you count the cards (always turn over the Nth card, instead of counting N and then turning over the next card).
+piguy314159 I have tested this and can confirm, this is true and makes it look smoother.
I'm sorry I didn't understand. Will you please explain a bit more clearly?
Sarthak Mohanty When he turns over the "wrong" card the second time, he can slide that card underneath while putting the rest of the cards back on top. Then the prediction card ends up at the 3rd (or whatever) position and he can simply turn over the 3rd card instead of counting to 3 and then turning over the next card.
That way he can count the other piles in the same manner (just turn over the last card), so he never has to change how he counts the last pile and risk someone noticing.
Thanks
If they pick an irrational number, punch them and take their money.
And whats about complex numbers?
Then you use 2 decks
Brock Harrison on Twitch what if one of the numbers is the square root of i?
Michal Nemecek sqrt i is just a complex number
@@GeodesicBruh well actually it's two numbers :P
Do more! Maths or Math FTW
"and then their brain blows up" 😂😂😂😂
Brady, it looks like people want more MATHS CARD TRICKS :)
That's the most parker way of folding a paper
In the first attempt, I thought it turned out to be a Parker square trick.
Don't do the failing twice thing. Just ask for a number, deal, ask for another number, deal, then show that they found the card. Failing twice makes it looks like you are just going to keep going until you finally reach their card
I've never seen someone so enthusiastic about magic.
1:31 How to fold up a paper *properly* 😆
That was a Parker fold :)
What if they pick a complex number?
+Josh McGillivray then you let THEM count out 1 + 1i cards from the deck
You let them imagine the card.
Punch them
You say it got lost in their *imagination*
Count out the real part and then rotate the deck the imaginary part.
great - thank you!
more like this one are coming!
Loving the adjective "numbery"
we're doing a bunch of Rubik's videos but they are not quite finished yet...
"Really? Im glad you're certain because it is the top card!" "and then their brain blows up"
I like how he was like 'Hey! You're still here! What more do you want?"
Much simpler, easier and more effective as a trick (IMO of course) - first, tell them to pick a number between 5 and 20 so you're not counting cards all day long. You count down and show whatever number card they said. After you get it wrong, put the cards back on the deck, and then act like you just realized that since THEY came up with the number THEY should do it. Hand them back the deck, they count down the same number, and quicker than you can say Spiriti mei infernali, obedite, it works.
You should do more videos with Matt. He's pretty cool and funny!
"no youtubery"
Nice. Covered all of the possibilities. I like the MIT (Magician In Trouble), syndrome. This effect is a great follow up after an ACAAN (Any Card At Any Number), effect where the effect is carried one step further (if it ever comes up that the spectator is sceptic of the first effect ), by allowing the spectator to pick the number where the card should be in a sense that you sent the number to the spectator, yet leaving the spectator with the thought that the spectator really received the number that you sent or the spectator could have picked any number that popped in their head. This is perfect when the spectator is sceptic that the performer is really not sending the number to them mentally and the spectator just say any number to see if the trick will work. So, when the effect still works, in that case, this makes the effect all the more powerful!
When asked to pick a number between 1 and 10 or some larger number, I always go with 2π
This is a mechanic that can easily be added onto to involve audience members picking the card. Add a little sleight of hand into the equation and you can really make a brain-teasing trick that's guaranteed to baffle people. Not many magicians actually mix sleuth tricks with math tricks, but when it's done well, it's really good.
What if they say 5 and 10 or any other pair that one is twice the other? Then the difference would be one that they already guessed and the reveal wouldn't work.
I'm really excited about the Rubik's cube videos! I've always been fascinated by those things, and any discussion about them from you guys on Numberphile is guaranteed to be amazing, and probably even mind-blowing.
about four years I think (on RUclips)
Some of the related videos are pretty cool ;)
3:40
😂😂😂
This is meme material!
I hated math my whole life, I can't stand one day of my life whit out numberphile since I have discovered it. Thank you numberphile for showing me the beauty of math!
I did the trick to a friend, his first choice was 1, I showed him the card and he was blown away!!
But the fact that you look at all the cards at the start puts the "magic" of this trick way back.
9:37 is a meme waiting to be discovered.
the end was amazing
I found out on the Internet a very complicated math card trick that works every time and I have no idea how it works, it requires no preparation, no peeking at a card, not a single cheat. Can I make a video and reply to this video showing the trick? It's really impressive!
When he said that we have to write down the top card, I immediately understood the trick. And it is so simple!!!
What we are able to see here is a true master of origami anyone can fold paper to make a swan, a dragon or a working model of Stephenson's Rocket but it takes years of practise to perfect the one handed blob of paper and even more so if you perform it on camera.
That's numberwang!
That end was genius.
I love his face in the last frame.
Interesting video!
This is an invitation to see an artist theory on the physics of light and time!
This theory is based on just two postulates
1. Is that the quantum wave particle function Ψ or probability function represents the forward passage of time itself
2. Is that Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle ∆×∆p×≥h/4π that is formed by the w-function is the same uncertainty we have with any future event within our own ref-frame that we can interact with turning the possible into the actual!
AGH I almost thought the video was gonna end at 4:30! Thanx for another awesome video Brady :D and Matt for the cool trick.
That guy's my favorite out of all the guys in numberphile videos. I'll always remember the video where he suggests he is going to start writing on a blackboard and pulls it away to reveal more brown paper.
Lol the still face at the end of the video is classic
I had a deck of cards and was doing this with him. I was shuffling the cards as he was explaining what to do if they pick 1 or 0, and i flipped over the top card at the exact same time as he did. It was the 8 of diamonds.
My brain blew up.
I was slightly terrified because Brady said both of the numbers I was thinking of.
Two things to correct: First - there's 52 factorial ways that a deck can be shuffled. So as opposed to 52 squared, which would be 2704 ways to shuffle a deck, there's actually
80,658,175,170,943,878,571,660,636,856,403,766,975,289,505,440,883,277,824,000,000,000,000
ways a deck of cards can be shuffled.
And even with all those ways to shuffle a deck of cards, there's only 52 spots a particular card can go in, so the 8 of diamonds will be in slot 1 (on top) once out of every 52 times.
RUclips subtitles had you saying "math card trick". I had to check. Thankfully RUclips got it wrong.
When a person chooses a smaller number second (e.g., 7 followed by 5) you do not need to change the trick and present the 5 card. Simply ask them to choose the second number, in this case 5 and place the 8th card on top of the pile you just counted out instead of placing in back on the the main card pile. Proceed with placing the "counted" pile underneath the main pile and count out 2 in this example and the 3rd card will be the card you wrote down.

my brain when they pick a negative number and insist I count from the bottom
He said twelve the same time I did. Sacred the shit out of me.
Makes searching for Numberphile videos easier.
that was the best thing ive ever seen as a comment reply
coming soon!
soon, soon!
"And then their brain blows up" glad I watched it to the end
Oh a teaser! I can't wait. Keep up the good work.
I was actually thinking twelve!!
"and then their brain blows up." hahahaha, u r just too funny.
I always forget how RUclips comments didn't always have sub-threads for direct replies until I watch videos that are like 6, 7 years or older and see comments [usually from the uploader] that are seemingly nonsensical and talking to nobody, when in reality they are actually in response to another comment and replies just used to be their own comments
Really makes me appreciate the current comment system, honestly.
But remembering the old system reminded me of the spot above the comments where folks could "submit" [for lack of a better word] a video to be there as a related/response video [I don't remember specifically what the term was, if there's anyone who's as much of a fossil as I am who's actually understanding what I'm talking about, let me know] with the uploader's approval
Like maybe an actual explanation of that system would help:
Take this video for example, imagine if a viewer, after watching this video, decided to make a video of them doing this trick on a friend
Said viewer could then "submit" [again, for lack of a better word] their video to Numberphile, and if Numberphile approved it, then the viewer's video would always be in a specific section above the comments, different from the actual, RUclips-picked recommended/related
That was probably still explained bad, but I swear this existed, I remember it being used for collab videos and whatnot
Oh man, I wanna make a computer from playing cards.
I don't know how, though.
Im almost certain that you can.... somehow
If you do this, be consistent with which card you show. If they say 5, and you count to 4 and then show the 5th card, make sure they do the same. If you're showing the card AFTER the number they say (so they say 5, and you count to 5 and then show the 6th card), make sure you put that (6th) card on top of the pile before you put it back on the deck, or it will be off by 1 card.
Of course I'm still watching!
I really enjoy your videos!
It does. First it becomes the second card, then it is the card right after the first, and so you win.
"... and then brain blows up"
and then you have to clean up that mess and try to explain yourself to the police.
i love this channel!
I love one of your tricks where the final 3 cards remaining are the spectator's cards.
just when he wrote down his prediction the bottom card of my deck showed exactly that card after shuffling it
You could say something like - "you know... I can't believe it didn't work the first time, maybe I just counted wrong - let's try the 10 again". :)
3:40 LOL
This guy is just amazing.
For the demonstration, you should've kept the eight of diamonds face-up and laid the cards out with visible edges.
A bunch of them? It seems I have a lot to look forwards to! :D
How can a video have 952 likes and just 301 views?!? The video deserves the likes, don't get me wrong, just wondering.
I like how you bring on another scene and don't announce it (the still watching? part)
That's really neat folding
this is the sickest trick ever! i've got to use it on my friends that always do card tricks on me!
sure it does. The card is the second one, after the first guess, and then he says one so the first card (at first second card) comes of and the one after that is the card you chose.
really puts the digit in prestidigitation
I'm still watching in 2019
That's the perfect end face
That face at 9:38 must be the most hilarius face i have ever seen.
Finally someone with a good sense..
Thanks, I thought it was the end when the Numberphile screen shows up.
I tried this on my brother using the Joker card on top, and he picked the number 8, since there's 2 jokers, the 2nd one happened to be the 8th card down.. and I felt like a god.
Numberphile answering a question from mismag822? So much number-explaining has never been seen!
The magic in magic doesn't lie in fully in the mystery. While it does play a major part in small tricks, everyone knows there's no such thing as magic, and even if you know how the trick's done, you can still be impressed by the execution of the trick.
This is why Penn and Teller are amazing and Criss Angel is terrible.
Imagine my surprise when Brady said 12 and it was the same number I was thinking of!
Brady
There is a maths card trick that deals with 21 cards. I believe it's just called the 21 card magic trick. It would be cool to know how that one works.
seems that way
Especially with the factorial, that's murder.
Oh my, I'm excited. I have a 7x7 cube that is so much fun to solve. I want to get an 11x11 cube but they're very expensive (over $100).
While you're waiting for the numberphile video, try to figure out how this number relates the the rubik's cube:
8! * 3^7 * 12!/2 * 2^11
woaahh picked up my deck of cards to try this and 8 of diamonds was on top
More of these kind of videos ! Nce one guys !
Simple as fuck, and yet my mind has been blown
Oh, I'm glad you're certain because IT IS THE TOP CAAARD
Yes! love learning magic tricks like this.
I was shuffling a deck cards whilst watching this, and when I looked down at them, I realised that I'd accidentally turned over a card while I was shuffling them. It was the 8 of diamonds.
