Magic Mentalism Trick
Hi, Tim Mannix back again, professional magician teaching you another great magic trick. This is called mentalism in the art of magic. One of the categories that we do tricks, learn tricks and share tricks in is called mentalism. On the streets you might know it as mind reading or ESP things like that; we call it mentalism. If this is a new word to you, now you've got a new word to use. This is a great trick, simple to learn and easy to do. Of course, don't tell the secret, otherwise the mystery is gone. Okay, I have six objects: a deck of cards, a spoon, a business card (my business card), a butter knife, a salt shaker (it's empty), 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and a pair of scissors. I am actually going to predict (here is where the mentalism comes), I am going to predict what Joe off stage here is going to select. Okay? I am going to write it down. I will try to make it big enough for you to see. We will verify. If this was an actual performance people could read it. But sometimes on camera it is not so easy to read. Okay. There is my prediction. I am going to put it face down. I will leave it there in front of you and Joe, I've got 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 objects. Would you please pick an object? 2 and 4. Just one number. Which one? 2. Business card. I predicted that he would select the business card. Does it say business card on there Joe? That is right. Biz card. I am amazing.
