FIVE SPEED by chris kenner

[amirshaw]

five speed is a great trick, to laymen, its so impossible, and yet such a simple gimmick, no one will ever figure it out in real life, it may not be a perfect magician fooler, but it sure is a laymen fooler, i say this is one of the greatest effects out there..thats just me..

Why would you care about fooling magicians?

I look at it this way, magic can be defined as this;

Magic is a performing art that entertains an audience by creating illusions of impossible or supernatural feats

Would it not also be great to be able to entertain magicians themselves also?

If a trick fools laymen, it works.

If a trick fools magicians, it REALLY works.

Apart from old classics such as "Out of this World," double-lifts, "The French Drop" etc. if a trick fools a magician, then it is performed well and it is a good idea in the first place.

Although the method is not a top notch idea, it works and it really is a great piece of magic that fools your spectators. It is taught by a great teacher/magician (Chris Kenner) who I have met and is a great guy. Also remember that the method doesn't have to be amazing as long as it works (which it does for me).

This is a rly easy trick to do, ppl should not waste money on this just to figure out the secret...figure it out onn ur own, its rly easy

Awesome trick with simple gimmick

[Alexyn0o]

has someone tried this trick without something else beside the recommended gimmick?

what else can be used?

[Jacob Hatfield]

Hmm,

I never really put much thought to it.
Why change something that is already really very simple?

But I have some ideas...

Again, the method given seems to be the best idea.

Thanks for the idea...Chris method just don't work for me. :<

I see a problem with 5 speed. That problem is that there is a void in time between the last time you picked the card and when you see it again. Any thoughts of how to make it more direct?

[Allen]

Have them sign the card. That way they cant forget and it will come out of nowhere.

[SkySpirit]

It just makes the audience go crazy!!there is no way that their card appear at the end!!it's an awsome effect and it really doesn't use anything stupid.
