Jim

[sorbuato]

I've figured it out! 4 cards died in the process :( rest in peace. oh, and please don't use an exacto knive to show this trick XD, but thanks :) i'ts a really cool trick.

[jimcatman]

@sorbuato thx for commenting, you are 100% WRONG about destroying 4 cards to do this illusion, If u ever do figure it out let me know and I will tell u the truth if u are right or wrong

Jim

[Riskibiz]

Nice subtleties !



[jimcatman]

@Riskibiz thx for commenting

Jim

[TheOreothief]

WTF!!!

[jimcatman]

@TheOreothief.... Couldn't have said it better myself

Jim

[padrerich1]

Honestly, I did not read the description at all and I should have , sorry . But it wouldn't have taken much time to mention Mike in your video , you do mention Hockham. I really wasn't trying to belttle you (I do read english by the way ), just would have liked to have heard Mike's name mentioned in the video . NOT THAT BIG OF DEAL! Thanx for the good magic!

[Vanishication]

Truly amazing :)

[jimcatman]

@Vanishication Thanks for the nice comment, yea I am amazed every time I see this vid

Jim

[padrerich1]

isn't this a version of Mike Close Dollar trick with two cards ? Exremely nice illusion but shouldn't mike get some credit on this?

[jimcatman]

@padrerich1 I dont know if you can read English, but if you took the time to read the description of this effect just under the video screen I DID give credit to M. Close

[TheMagicbrett]

i even searched everywhere for a reveal but the were none? i could trade you an explination for a trick that is not find'able on you tube and no gimmicks just pure sleight of hand , all you need is 2 bank cards, beer mats or even playing cards, but bank cards work better cus there is a cool story with the trick involving magnetism, send me a reveal?

[jimcatman]

@TheMagicbrett .Do a video of your trick and post it on utube and let me know when you have done so. so I can see what it looks like in performance,NOT A REVEAL. and maybe we can trade

[TheMagicbrett]

that was excellent, great trick , great music , terrible explination though ;) keep up the great vids

[jimcatman]

@TheMagicbrett .Oh well , thanks for commenting anyway

[vicenteManU]

Jim this is the second time I comment on this trick! because its just great! .On this illusion I prefer enjoying this wonderful trick than trying to figure it out and now I can give you the classic 1000/5 *****

[wewillhavejustice]

great trick. has a great effect on ppl.

what was the name of the song in the backround? i know i've heard it before.

[jimcatman]

Thanks for the nice comment, as for the song, I don't know the name, but I think it's from an opera, I don't have the name as it was background music on a pps picture file

Jim

[yulado]

@wewillhavejustice the song is Mio Babbino Caro (La Boheme) Maria Callas was famous for singing it

[jimcatman]

Thanks for that info, most appreciated

JIm

[Borgerlig64er]

that was a hardcore trick ;)...

[jimcatman]

Thanks friend for the nice compliment

Jim

[Borgerlig64er]

You realy should make some toturials (think its spelled that way) But I respect if you don´t.. I realy hate when people expose my "magic"

[jimcatman]

Thx again for another comment , I don't do tutorials, like you said you hate it when people expose your magic

Jim

[cardmagician72]

This is the best trick ever I can't work out how this done

[jimcatman]

Thanks for the nice compliment, but don't feel bad, NO ONE, has a clue as to what is going on in this exelent illusion, I just wish i created it

Jim

[BlueKanine]

Something fishy is going on, at the time that you say "I'm gonna try and line these two holes, here".... and it takes you a little more time to line them up, than it really should take, if you WEREN'T doing anything special at that point.

[jimcatman]

Glad to see u are rally intregued by this effect, just to put yur mind at ease ,, if I just put the two cards down on the table and looked at them, there would be no trick.

As far as your comment, you are seeing something that isn't really there

JIm

[BlueKanine]

Oh, I'm definitely intrigued. :) Thanks for posting and sharing this trick with us!

Also, at 2:27, there seems to be something else funny going on, as it again takes a bit extra time for you to pull the cards apart, and your fingers are working something...

Also was just tipped off that face cards are used on purpose for these kinds of tricks, to hide certain things... so now I'm suspicious about that jack!

[BlueKanine]

At 2:27, there's ALSO a little "pop" from the Jack card assumably 'popping' back into the position from the special fold you gave it.

[jimcatman]

The knife has nothing to do with it it is not gimmicked

Jim

[TheMagicmanZev]

hey jim,

where can i get this?

[jimcatman]

It is a creation of Michael Close, and I don't know where to get it

JIm

[TheMagicmanZev]

Alright, thanks anyway

[TheMagicmanZev]

Hey I just did some research, this can be found in Workers #1 by Michael Close. It is called the pothole trick.

[DimuXaS]

Wow... Thats Imposible :) Nvm +5 :)

[jimcatman]

Thanks friend for watching the impossible, and thx for the 5/5, but your comment isn'e impossible LOL

JIm

[uGOTpwnd10]

niiiiiiiice

[jimcatman]

Thanks for commenting , glad u liked it

Jim

[bonjonator1]

that is amazing how do you do it

[jimcatman]

Thanks friend for viewing my vid and commenting, but I don't kiss and tell

Jim

[HereIamWhatNow]

I'm flabbergasted!

[jimcatman]

Thx for commenting and yea that about sums it all up , I am amazerd every time I do it, this has gotta bu the best trick I do

Jim

[darnseniorhigh]

I really can't stop watching this trying to figure it out, can I ask if the cards can be examined at the end? If you don't want to tell me then don't reply. Thanks!

[jimcatman]

On Friday my daughter and my grandchildren come to visit and I did this illusion outside on the deck in full sunshine, they were amazed and after the trick they wanted to touch the cards so I put them on the table and they played with them for almost an hour and couldn't find a thing. TRUE STORY

Jim

[atsmith96]

wow great illusion im still trying to figure that one out

[jimcatman]

Let me know when you do, nobody has come up with a solution yet

Jim

[CletusMcPhee]

I had to watch again, and it is definitely the best illusion ever, Superb.

[jimcatman]

Thx Jay, I am amazed every time I do it, and I know the secret, still the best I ever saw with cards

JIm

[MrMasterMagician]

The title says it all. that was incredible Jim i have not the faintest of an idea of how you did that. Good one. 5*****

[jimcatman]

Thx Ben for commenting and yea no professional magician has figured it out either

Jim

[Ghostface13]

Wow! That really was cool. I haven't done magic in nearly 20 years, but I am now starting to get back into it. It's something fun to do with my son. You are really good though, keep it up.

[jimcatman]

Thx again for commenting, and yea, you should get back into magic it's so much fun and entertaining to your friends and family

Jim

[WaconiaComedy]

Very nice illusion, still trying to figure it out.

[jimcatman]

Thanks friend for the comment, be sure to let me know when u figure it out

JIm

[WaconiaComedy]

Will do. It's hard because I trust their isn't any editing or splices in the video.. very well done.

[jimcatman]

I never edit or splice any of my vids, I don't evern have an editing program, and if you listen to the music, witch is playing in the background there is never a skip in the music, the music is recorded the same time I'm talking and doing the effect

Jim

[WaconiaComedy]

I trust that, it is an amazingly performed trick. I have done some illusion tricks but this is amazing.

[jimcatman]

Thx again for commenting and the nice compliment

Jim

[8penumbra8]

Interesting adaption from the dollar bill. I like using the bill better, but that's just my opinion. Nicely done.

[jimcatman]

Thanks for commenting on this effect, I've never seen it done with a bill, in my mind it would be harder to do with a bill, if you have a link where I can see it performed send it to me if it's not too much trouble

Jim

[vicenteManU]

Jim This Is One Of The Best Tricks I Ever Seen!!! 5/5 Awesome!

[jimcatman]

Thanks agan for commenting and are not alone in thinking that, many of my friend magicians can't figure it out, glad u liked it

JIm

[LittleLead]

this is insane.. u are depriving me of sleep lol

j/k

[jimcatman]

Hi Mike, thx for commenting again, take a glass of warm milk, maybe that will help you sleep

JIm

[LittleLead]

lol thanks jim :)

i showed my friend this and he flipped.. he wants to know if the card can be looked at after wards?

i do to lol

[jimcatman]

I did this trick for my son and his wife last night and after I performed it they asked me the same question and I gave thim both cards to handle

JIm

[LittleLead]

well jim. you really outdid yourself with this trick. im serious. my friend said he would show all of his family this video. maybe you will get some subscribers. well if there is no trade were can i buy this trick?

[jimcatman]

The trick is not on the market, it's by Michael Close and was tought to me be a very good friend, sorry but I'm keeping this for myself (shelfish of me don't u think?) LOL

JIm

[LittleLead]

lol.. that sux.. this michael guy would still be making money from this trick.. why would they stop selling this? your not selfish. your just keeping it a mystery. lol

i still love it. i no most ppl say they fiqure out stuff in a snap. but this is a special trick. i doubt this could be fiqured out so quick unless u no the moves to the trick. its an awesome trick jim. i love it.

-Mike

[perfectdonk]

I like shell fish

Oh, and your trick wasnt bad either..

...GHAHA, no I HAVE to find this out AMAZING!

[badbrojack]

Hi Jim...hows things ???...and if you don't mind me saying JESUS CHRIST !!!!!....this is like the first of your effects thats mashed my brain up. I wont be able to sleep tonight now, thanks alot LOL...i feel like a layman :) anyhow 10/10 on the illusion, and can't really comment on your patter or preformance in general because this isn't really a card effect and slightly alien to me. Anyhow, keep in touch and i'll see ya around. Thanks

Jack

[jimcatman]

Hi Jack. good to hear from you, I'm son happy with your compliment about this illusion, I must agree , it's a real brain teaser but don't loose too much sleep LOL, as it fools all magicians, hope to hear from you again

Jim

[aflakmagic]

amazing.. 5/5

[jimcatman]

Thanks friend for commenting and the 5*****

JIm

[AndreiLungu11]

[jimcatman]

Nice try friend but you couldn't be more wrong LOL

JIm

[CletusMcPhee]

That was actually really awesome, keep it up Jim.

[korvlada]

[jimcatman]

Thanks for leaving a nice comnment, glad you agree with me

Jim

[korvlada]

just being honest, its nice for once not to be able to figure out a trick, i dont think im gonna try to either its nice to just enjoy the mystery of not knowing sometimes if that made any sense hehe
