method: At 0:25 the king of spades is dragged back and the card behind it is presented as the king of spades. The real king is slid to the bottom. At 0:49 the face up cards, and bottom KOS are stripped out and placed on top, so we have face up cards, KOS (face down), face down cards. At 0:59 Jacob visibly pushes the KOS onto the bottom of the face up pile, then flips the rest of the face down cards, leaving the only card the wrong way around the KOS. All other methods posted missed something.
My guess.. @0.49, you pull the decks back apart from the previous false-shuffle, so you still have a face-up deck in one hand and a face-down deck in the other, except for the chosen card which was transferred in opposite orientation at the bottom of one pile. To show which orientations you have, you pull the deck apart in sections where there is only one of each mismatch-- all the cards in the upper half are face-up, etc.
After the riffle and bridge, the "splitting" of the halves was the pulling of card-side-up cards from the back-side-up cards at 0:50. You can see Jacob flip the bottom of the half of the deck right side up at 1:01 when he says "front-to-front." This leaves only the King of Spades facing the "wrong" way.
Great trick, but once recorded with the ability to replay makes it tough to hide.
I'm guessing that he didn't actually mix the orientation of the cards, just the top card which made it look like all the others were faced the same way, dunno.
So the person picks the card and places it in the middle of the deck. You keep track of its location, perhaps with that flourish you did. You split the deck and the top card in your left hand is the chosen card. You shuffle it so the chosen card winds up on top, and then you break the deck into the original two halves and stack them facing in opposite directions. (cont...)
(...cont) In your demonstration you take the up card from the top half, the down card from the bottom half, and the back to back card in the middle. There are no front to front cards, but you hold the deck so it looks like there are. You now stack it so they're all facing the same direction, except the card which was a back to back card, which was the original chosen card at the top of the original "shuffled" deck.
@Stargazer5781 You skeptics are all the same, you refuse to notice a miracle when you see one. You're just too busy with your 'empirical evidence,' 'peer review,' and 'rigorous testing.' Fancy talk won't fool me!
@Stargazer5781 Wrong. The deck is cut in a way that there isn't four perfectly square corners (after 0:48 the cards are no longer all mixed up), the chosen card spends most of the time on the bottom of the deck, and there are two slight of hand moves.
Jacob, i saw at least one of the moves you made, after the false shuffle.

Also, when you showed the "face to face" card, i also saw you flip the king of spades. great trick though. :)

Pause @ 1:01, look at the bottom of the top pile before the two are combined

It's not that hard to figure out if you know card magic, but even so it takes a lot of skill and practice to do it this flawlessly. Impressive.
