"He's actually taking his thumb off. That was actually there."
You ready? "I'm ready!"
Deep breaths
Serious video business.
"No, there's no laughing here."
NO, no no no. This is a... this is a Card Trick
Hey guys, Steven Bridges here. Today I'm joined with my friend Owen.
Hello! "Ello"
How's it going? "Very well"
Good. I mean I asked you off camera how you were doing.
We've not just sat down immediately and having our first conversation.
So Owen does a bit of magic himself, and you are good at magic.
"I'd like to hope so"
Good. Well that's good.
So I'd like to show you a trick I like to perform for magicians. I came up with this trick when I was thinking 'what's the fairest piece of magic I can do?'
And this is sort of how it went down.
Card trick. Got some cards.
We've also got another camera that we're gonna shoot on.
So would you like to grab the camera Owen? "I'll get that right now"
Yeah, multiple camera angles. You know I like high production values.
Cool, we've got some cards here. As you can see they're all nice and different.
Owen all I'd like you to do for me is just touch any card. Yeah you've got to film and touch a card.
"that one"
This one? Okay.
Could you just scribble your name on it with the Sharpie?
"Ah yes." I'm just gonna hold it.
Enjoy the challenge of writing your name
"There we go." Great!
I'm allowed to see it.
"Yeah".
Fantastic, so now you know that is the only card like that in the world.
Camera number 2.
or number one...
Great.
Here's what we're gonna do.
I wanna make this as fair as I can, ready? Just watch.
Nothing sneaky.
Leaving that card just stuck out like this.
Ready? "Mhmmm"
In it goes.
Could you just hold out one hand for me?
Ready, watch.
One card just falls through the deck.
"Ahhhhh!"
6 of diamonds with your signature on it. "God damn it"
I'll show you that again, we've got the 6 of diamonds I'll make this as fair as I can.
That is your signature? "Yep"
We'll take it like this and put it right in the middle of the deck.
Nothing sneaky, in it goes.
If I just square this up like this...
In fact, we'll do it this way round.
Ready? Could you hold out your hand for me please?
All I need to do is lightly push...
And that card just drops right through.
"Ahhh"
Through all those cards - oh yeah!
"Oh yeah it's getting real!"
I'm gonna show you that one more time ready, we're gonna make this as fair as we can.
Here we go, 6 of diamonds. You can see that card right Owen? "Yes"
Okay, ready? Watch.
In it goes in the middle.
Nothing sneaky ready. I'm squaring these up. Could you hold out your hand for me?
Watch.
Sorry... hold on.
Okay sometimes it gets a little bit stuck.
You can move your hand away. All we're gonna do is just take it like this.
We just have to give it a little bit of a push and just pull that right through.
And there we go that is your 6 of diamonds.
That is your signature.
That's the card! "That is awesome!"
Booya! Right at the lens, you ready? You ready?
Right at the lens!! "It hit it!"
"Yes! That's awesome!"
Gonna cap the Sharpie I feel like it's gonna get dry.
Cool. There it goes.
Thank you guys so much for watching I hope you enjoyed that. Did ya like that? "Yes"
Good.
"I'm trying to refrain from letting all my emotions out I'm trying to play it cool."
Trying not to cry... on video. "Yeah".
Not again.
If you like this video please hit that like button because that is like your tiny little round of applause.
And it makes me feel good.
It makes you feel good (hopefully), and eveyone's happy.
You can also leave me a comment but please don't discuss how you think the magic is done.
'cause that's not fun
That's called a spoiler and we don't like those. That sounded incredible patronising.
That's called a spoiler kids! "Kids!"
We also filmed a quick video on Owen's channel so if you wanna see Owen do some magic to me, which was well good...
Check it out.
Owen also does some really good vlogs which I've subscribed to and think he's really good.
Thanks again, I'll see you guys very soon. That's all.
Here's a shoe!
"I'm not gonna..." Let's not throw it!
