Boom! Such an awesome trick! Thanks for sharing it with me. Need to visit Canada again soon so we can actually create a video in person...and go to petinos and Bulk Barn.

I know some people think learning how a trick is done makes it less magical. I do not feel the same way. The technique and presentation is magic to me, and far more interesting and entertaining than a trick.

Sometimes when you see how a trick is done it's really disappointing but seeing how this was done just made it even more impressive.

Since you are choosing the card for them and know what it will be, it would be even more effective if, for example it was a 7 or hearts, if you picked the seventh word on the page as the word you wrote down. then when you “find” their card you could say something like “is this your card” and when they say yes, you then say “ok, so let’s count to the seventh word on the page” (which you have already written) - it just adds one more dimension

I've never looked into how it was done before, but I've seen that riffle force done enough times now that I know, whenever a magician uses that selection method, they're forcing a card.

Added convincer: Place duplicate force cards in two other random books at the same page number. Pick books with interesting first words on your chosen matching page number. Memorize and associate those words with each book. Display the three books to the spectators and have one freely chosen. Tell them there’s no way you could’ve known in advance what book they would’ve chosen. Write your prediction using the word you memorized for that particular book and set it in plain view or give it to a spectator to hold. Proceed with the trick as Spidey explained.

I always wanted to learn how to use books as props. This fooled me so hard. And that ending, I did not see it coming.

I’m one of your Behavioral Arts friends, and I landed over here after enjoying a couple of Penn and Teller videos, so the algorithm sent me here. Love your content, Spidey. You make all this so accessible. Not that I’m trying any of your card tricks. That’s not my thing. For one thing I am just painfully honest! But I love how you meticulously plan every bit and know exactly how people are going to react to reinforce the illusions you play with. You are so smart and so kind, which is just a really rare combination in my experience. No one minds being fooled by you! Guess I just needed my Spidey fix this week, since you were off elsewhere and had no BA upload last Saturday. 😂 Thanks for everything, Spidey. Looking forward to whatever you have cooked up for us this week!

I really enjoyed the whole trick. I’ve been collecting so many techniques and moves, but the art of putting them together in a routine eludes me.

When performing in the real world again, after „throwing in“ the spectator‘s card you could casually ask a nearby audience member if she would like to help and throw in the remaining cards.

At the start of the explanation, I'm just shaking my head, no I don't know how this trick was done. Then, just before the riffle force demo, my eyes are wide and I'm just grinning ear to ear, thinking, "This is brilliant!" Everything else is just icing. Well played, Spidey.

Like the creative process which goes in making this trick. Also I think this might be the only channel which shows us a performance first and then teaches a trick in detail including subtleties with over the shoulder view.

11:49 That switch is called the Allerton Switch by Bert Allerton!

The DESTINY(cards thrown) got me🤣🤣...... definately adding to my act😆😆

Oh wow thats good, I have a few ideas now to modify! I think I'll get audience members to come to the show with a book, get them at the start in the foyer, load every single book with a suitable number of pages backstage during the first half of the show- and get a spectator to choose a book from the stack. Damnit Spidey, your tutorials rock there's SO MUCH you can do with this!

You really outdid yourself this time! My family was in aw. It’s really easy to learn and is really good. You never disappoint. MAGIC IS THE BEST!😄😄😄

I performed your trick it was a hit Also I made some variations For instance I used a dictionary instead of novel so the words won't repeat And it was a great effect Also I didn't have a proper duplicate card but I managed with a bit similar design placing it in the deck of cards Which was greatly excepted because my family knew that we don't have a duplicate pair Thanks for this superb trick

I can't believe all the work and slight of hand that goes in to making these tricks seem so effortless. Ty for sharing. i agree knowing the trick doesn't take away from the magic it adds to it, cause it takes that much more talent to pull it off.

I really loved the ending of the trick, where you showed how "destiny" brought the 6 cards together to literally make their card. That reminded me of a classic reveal, where 5 random letters a spectator chose somehow turned into a date. Not just any date, the date the trick was performed.

This is so clever! Awesome tutorial Spidey. Thoroughly enjoyed the performance and the explanation. This makes for a good virtual book test! 🔥

Hey Spidey!!!!!!!! Been a big fan since 2 years but never got to thank you for what you do for us. So....THANKS A LOTTTTTTTT

This was awesome! Thank you so much for this! There is a lot of opportunity to use this in a school setting, or casually with friends. Thanks, again!

i learned that a year ago and it is still the best trick i have! pls do more videos like that, it is so awsome that you involve so many diffrent parts and items in a magic. it makes it seems completly random. love that!

Excellent trick, Spidey. Love the page number angle too. Looking forward to practicing this.

What a great routine, can’t wait to try this out. Thank you for sharing .

Another EXCELLENT tutorial. Love this effect. Thank you for sharing.

That's sooo cool!!! You know the best tricks Spidey! And I always love seeing Gali too. She's so super sweet. Thank you🥰

Thanks Spidey, another awesome one. I really appreciate the detailed explanation, hints and tips how to perform. Thank you.

I’m definitely gonna do that DESTINY thing you did at the end of your performance! 😂

Woww SIr It was Awesome and yes we need this kind of practical experiments, thank you so much for sharing this trick, sending loads of love and respect from Chennai, India Sir🇮🇳🇮🇳😊😊🙏💓💓

Awesome! And yes I think I would be cool to also make tutorials of whole routines/ tricks, however not all the, so that we can really appreciate the ones you would show us rarely! Keep it up.

Oh Spidey this reminds me the one with Penn and Teller, love this one. Thanks for this and all the good vibes you always transmit to us

Very clever! I see that it really doesn’t matter if the spectator doesn’t say stop where the forced page is and I don’t have to tear off the pages in the book. Thanks Spidey!

I can't imagine how creative you are for creating this routine. Thank you, I have something to impress my friends! 😊❤

that's fantastic thanks for sharing spidey as you was showing the trick i back engineered it to be a force as most predictions are but so cool to watch spectators face and to see the workings of it thanks for posting :)

WOW! WOW!...Yes that is a Double WOW...Not to be confused with BOW, BOW as that is a dog barking. Thank you for sharing a very powerful and relatively easy mentalism effect. Just a bit of practice and you have a WOW, WOW moment. Presentation is everything in this effect... as with all effects, even the easy ones, Practice, Practice, Practice.

Very smooth. I watched the trick again in slow mode and only caught the missing pinkie (holding your spot) and hiding the 7 behind the 2. Very well executed. 👏

That’s awesome thanks for sharing. Yes I’d definitely love to see more like this

I cannot wait to try this one. I’ve only been trying to learn magic a few weeks and have a hard time with the slight of hand moves when using slippery cards.

Spidey you're so generous... This is a killer trick to get out for free!

I've studied magic for quite a while and know my share of tricks, but this one caught me off guard. So many variables and it's drawn out to make it seem even more random. Well done!

That is such a cool trick! I love the fact that the last prediction is so different and not something written or like that. AMAZING!!!

Wow this one was great. And I've been a fan of yours for awhile and since I've been watching I think I have internalized a ot of your techniques and while watching your performance I managed to catch the move where you moved the top card back with your thumb, and I noticed the fakeout where you didn't actually drop the card in, but even though I caught those two moves I didn't know why you did them or how they affected the trick specifically so the reveal was still spectacular. I imagine that many other magicians that you perform for have the ability to catch small moves sometimes but because mentalism is such a niche skill and you're so good at it that they are still so impressed ... thanks for this video!

Thanks for teachinh that awesome effect. I have been searching for a gimmickless book test fo a LONG time. Deffinetly gonna buy Transcript.

One of the most amazing mental magic tricks I've ever seen. Your explanation is perfect too.

Spidey I absolutely love your videos and you are very cool. I really appreciate everything thing you do on this channel and your tricks are really dope. My family was really amazed by these tricks and mentlism that I learned from your videos

I always feel like other channels have harder learning steps. But you have the best and easiest steps ever! Thank you for your dedication! 😊❤

I love this ! Thank you so much

Cant wait to do this to everyone!!! Spidey you did it again 🥰 You're amazing 😻

Very cool Spidey. This is the first book test or book prediction I ever learned. Thank you very much Spidey. Super cool. I got something else in the arsenal now thanks a lot buddy.

Amazing!!! As always! Thanks for staying awesome Spidey!!!

Am a really big fan of Spidey... Taught me alot of stuff🔥 .. any notification from him from you tube and am always there

Thank you for the magnificent mentalism tutorials always! I love your channel, from Japan

This is great effect with a strong climax. Thank u very much for sharing this gem.

Great Trick! For my style of magic, I would probably have a second person go through the book, looking for the card. I also might force the card differently, but I'm not yet sure.

Awesome!! Thank you !!

Amazing. Thank you 😄

I knew the 2 was forced but I wasn't sure of the method. Great card handling Spidey! That throwing the card into the book seemed suspicious to me but I was looking for how you were doing the trick. I figured you had to have been switching the 2 in there. I didn't realize it was already in there. Very awesome trick!

very clearly explained fabulous trick will be doing this on my grand kids they will love it thanks Spidey

What a clever trick! Thank you.

This one’s a real gem! Thanks!!

Great trick Spidey, THANKS!

Awesome one! I'll try to do it! Thanks!!!

Loved this! Has some neat twists. I’m a newbie and a little nervous about manipulating the cards.

excellent trick, thank you!

Nice!! Awesome virtual book test! Thanks.

Great trick. Very clever. Your explanation is so clear.

awesome! thanks for the tutorial

Good one, Spidey. Yeah, I want to learn more effects with multiple phases. Thanks for sharing.

Loved it. Please do more like this.

Wow! I love the kicker ending with the cards revealing the page number! And the method is absolutely genius! Great video Spidey!

This was kickass !!!! Had seen it in one of the shows and was blown by it.... Now the I've learnt how to do it.... I'm super-blown !!!!

Wow amazing trick thank you

Cool trick, great tutorial. Thanks Spidey!

Great mental Magic. Thanks loads for sharing to the community.

First of all, what an amazing trick. This will fool me a thousand times. Also the preformance of tricks is something I love. It gives us some deeper insight of the trick. I got a few questions. Does it really matter that the second card you put into the book is the chosen card? And the reveal on the end. That you show the number cards. Do you have any advice how to make it look magical, like in the tutorial, instead of a set-up trick? Love your work and thanks for this awesome video.

Love this, seen so many free tricks given away by you. This is amazing and an awesome thing to do.

You're such a great magician, entertainer and teacher!

This is amazing thank you for sharing :)

Love it very much!

Simply great!!!

Im 5 min in i already know how its done. Much love... U added the cards.. awsum... Love it..

An amazing trick from start to finish! Thanks for all the great tutorials

Love the breakdown. Shows. Magic is easy to do. If you put in a lot of hard work. That's the magic

I was blown away. Great trick

Very nice and clear tutorial.

Awesome effect. I was totally shocked. Incredible and it's not that hard. Thanks for a great tutorial ❤️.

Thanks, Spidey ❤️🤗 I got some Michael Ammar vibes with all of the classical music in the background 👌🎶

Thank you so much for sharing man. You're making magic better. Mine specifically 😁

Thats realy amazing, i'l defenetly perform it, but first i'l have to find a way to do it without a duplicate. Because I don't have one. But that doesn't change anything on the fact that the video was amazing. Thank you very much, Spidey.

Such an amazing piece spidey ! Love you ! 😍🕷️🥂

Excellent magic trick! Thanks for sharing

This is some smooth and subtle guerrilla marketing Paul Ekman’s great book “Telling Lies”!!

Dude! That was awesome!!! Time to blow some minds!

This one is a gem!!

I REALLY WANTED TO KNOW HOW THIS ONE WORKS AAAAH THANK YOU SO MUCH

Yooooo this was AWESOME realt good trick and great explination👍👍

This is great! I think something that would be cool to do is to double under cut after you put down “their” so basically a fake shuffle and the you say I’m going to choose the cards at the bottom.

Been away a long time... Great trick Spidey... What an effect ❤️

Spectacular. Love these videos and I’m so glad you are like Jane and completely aren’t afraid to teach us that mentalism is all smoke and mirrors.
