hi welcome to Real Magic Review my name
is Steve Forner and this is Super Can by
Greg
[Music]
Rastami before we do this I'd like you
to take a few things on board one of
them is to like this video if you want
to like it subscribe to my channel if
you want to subscribe to it share it
tell people about it all that and the
other thing is to have a look at
onlinemagic.co Co which is my membership
site hundreds upon hundreds of videos
live sessions every week that are then
uploaded with me waffling on about all
sorts of things and some special guests
as well courses on loads of different
aspects of magic uh you will not believe
what you get for your money let's just
say that so that's
onlinemagic.co and the
podcast Steve's Magic Show is a podcast
you'll be able to get that on wherever
you get your podcasts on wherever you
get your podcast you'll be able to get
it wherever you get your podcasts uh
just give it a search and it's long form
chats not really interviews that's
pushing it just waffles between me and
some very good magicians uh I just
recorded one with Charlie Fry Ben Sidman
will be going out very soon caroline
Raven and many many more so check out
Steve Faulner's Magic Show and follow me
on Instagram Steve Folk now right that's
the lot i know it's a bit tedious a lot
of people want me to get on with it but
it only took a couple of minutes and
maybe I can keep doing this if you do
those things super
can right i wonder if I should
demonstrate this this there might be an
edit in here because I just thought I
should demonstrate it rather than talk
about it because if I talk about it it
gets really boring i'm not very good at
explaining how tricks are done which is
bad for a reviewer so this is the way
I've been performing it with the
10-sided dice this is not the main way
of doing it so if this isn't for you
stick around all right somebody rolls a
dice and I say "What did you roll?" And
they say "Three." Hand it to someone
else they roll a dice i say "What did
you roll?" And they say "Nine." And I
roll a
dice say "What did you roll?" And I say
six so that's 3 9 and six i say "Put
that into your calculator in any
order." So they say 9 3 6 i say
"Multiply that by any three-digit
number." I'll do
591 equals and that gives us a number
okay and I look at that number and you
don't have to add that number up
perfectly by the way so I say right take
the cards out the
pack and I say do you want to deal the
cards from the bottom or the top this is
one thing they say I'll do it from the
top and I say right look at that number
which is
553176 and they deal out not the whole
number but they look at the five and
they go one two three four five the next
five one two three four five the next
three one two three the one one 7 1 2 3
4 5 6 7 and then six one two three four
five six okay we turn over that card
queen of hearts but the impressive bit
is the fact that we've got the queen of
hearts there as well i'm never going to
touch the cards i have one lucky card
that is in the box now make sure that
there's nothing else that's in the box
right just go ahead and cut the cards
about halfway about halfway
okay perfect now complete the cut now
remember Mom that you are the last
person to cut these cards you can either
count cards from the top of the deck or
from the bottom of the deck what do you
want to do top top grab the cards for
you do you want to count cards from the
top of the deck or from the bottom of
the deck uh bottom bottom perfect
[Music]
now before you turn that over go and put
that face down right here don't turn it
face up yet oh did you okay it's okay
it's okay okay now no you didn't see it
you didn't see it either right now by
the way did you notice that all these
cards that went by we have not seen the
three of hearts right alejandra look
through those cards let's actually turn
it over and look through them you will
notice that none of these are the three
of hearts either now Melanie if that's
the three of hearts you're going to
really freak me out it's going to freak
me out if it's the
Okay do you want me to turn it over turn
it over
yes i literally don't understand how
that's either
that's awesome
well yes
so that's not a presentation I would do
that's me kind of looking at it going I
haven't had this for long but there's
some very important things
here the fact that I just did
that is really
impressive not because of the trick i
think the trick is really good by the
way it's It's nice and we'll talk about
the whole thing in a minute about what
it claims it is and what it is are they
the same thing who knows
but it uses mathematics stop for those
of you like me that go I'm out which I
always do I thought when I got this why
don't I use it cuz I like the trick and
again we're going to talk that in a
minute why don't I use it as a way to
actually not panic and work on this so I
have worked on it i learned all the
different ways of doing it i listened to
all of Greg's tutorials and then I got
an app which improves your mental
mathematics i listened to the audio book
of no calculator no problem I think it's
called by Art Benjamin which is great
and not much of listening to that meant
I could look at this and do it straight
away now as you saw there was a little
bit of but that's fine i'm looking at
the number and going all that and I
because I haven't had it long I've kind
of had a little bit of a well I'm not
sure if I've got this right but I had
and it was a bit messy at the end but
the point is even with my brain and if
you think you're bad at mathematics
under pressure really I'm with you I'm
not just saying that I'm awful even at
the most simple things so I saw that and
I've learned not in a long time to kind
of know where we are and how to do
it that is the main trick now the dice
is my preference
There are many ways of getting that
three-digit number and it it's there is
a little bit of very simple mathematics
as well in that i like the dice because
it feels very fair but you can say to
someone as Greg does and do watch the
trailer my my explanations for tricks
are terrible if you watch the trailer
you see Greg say to someone right you
any um one-digit number you give me a
one-digit number that means something to
you and I was born on the month of or
whatever so so you've got this personal
thing and that's very important if you
want to do it that way because you put
your own number in there but you explain
it and it's in line with what they're
doing it's a personal thing and there
are ways of getting to a three-digit
number and sometimes you don't need a
three-digit number sometimes they can
just name any one-digit number they name
a one-digit number and then you're
you're fine but sometimes you have to
add your other one in which for some of
you is going to be a problem it wasn't a
problem for me but I prefer doing it
with a dice and that means it's just
three people roll a dice and we that's
the number we've got and there are
different ways of doing this one uses
realist by Greg Rostami but that's an
app you have to purchase so I'm not
going to go into that but that's another
seemingly incredibly fair way of getting
that three-digit number but the thing is
once you've got that three-digit number
you you say to them put it in any order
in your calculator some people are going
to not like that bear with me and then
you multiply that by any three-digit
number and you do what I did you look at
that and go
553176 deal out five deal so they
haven't got to do any maths and add it
up or anything like
that i know that's a awful long time to
get to this point but the reason I did
that is because I wanted you to see it
in the worst way it's ever going to be
and then what I want to talk about now
is how to make it better the first thing
to say that there are lots and lots of
ways of doing this not lots and lots
well there are actually loads of ways
but you get I think it's five or six
reveals in here ways to reveal that that
card it can be in a box it can be in an
envelope it can be in your pocket loads
of ways of doing it that that are kind
of easier than than what I just did but
I like that i like the kind of thing of
it being on the table and open you tell
them you have a duplicate card and the
card is a duplicate of one of these and
they deal down to it based on this
number so it's not any card at any
number nor is it claiming to be and we
all know about any card any number and
there's been a lot about that and I
won't go on about that but it's claiming
to be the ultimate card number so it's
not any card but it's a card it's a card
that you you've got in your box or in
your pocket or
whatever is it the ultimate one i don't
know is it a very good one absolutely i
think this is really strong because I've
showed it to people shown it to people
showed show and they've responded very
strongly every single time even though
you're using a calculator their
calculator there's no app involved in
this unless you use
realist it's seems really fair and of
course you then go back to what you've
done we had any three-digit number now
even though you may have put your own
one in by the time we get there it seems
so fair that they don't really question
that and even if they did it wouldn't
make any sense that you still got to
that card like I said loads of
presentations here there's one way you
get them all to follow along with a the
phone and you can choose they can choose
what what number they end up with or
someone else can choose a different
order of number and you can choose their
phone or their one and they're two
different numbers and it still works
loads of things and I think it's a very
strong trick is it the ultimate that's
up to you to decide the thing is you're
not paying $100 for this it's a good
price and a good solid uh routine i know
it's solid not just because of what I've
done but people on the Facebook pages
have been saying they've been getting
killer um responses with this i don't
think people say that if they don't have
to
so that's it other things to say about
it are it's easy as you know the maths
you can get there it's really not hard
most people will be able to do even
without thinking about it if you're
numpty like me then you're going to have
to put a bit of work into that but I've
enjoyed that process the the use of the
calculator I think is fine you can
justify that and like I said there are
many many ways of doing it that that
have different presentations and the
different ways of revealing that card
are very clever there's a lot of thought
gone into this this is based on um Greg
Rastami's angel number I think it's
called principle and he's expanded the
the method in that and there like I said
the scripting he he goes into in more
depth in that will help you if you
wanted to but you won't need that i
think this is this is a really solid
piece of work and I think it's been
really good fun learning and I think
you'll like it i'm I will have missed
out so much
there i'm just trying to think if
there's anything really big probably
Greg will probably watch this and go you
haven't said this but that's fine
because you've got comments below i will
genuinely answer them i know I haven't
answered all the comments about cloak
yet i will be doing that too i'm now set
up like I said so we'll be doing that um
that very very shortly so they will be
answered and as I have said I will have
forgotten something no doubt very
important oh there's no real slight of
hand or anything like that and it can
all be out on the table beforehand
there's no switching things around or
anything uh and it's completely angle
proof
