Super Quick Card Trick Snatch
Amazing free card trick where you quickly grab two of the spectator's chosen cards at super quick speed. The amazing part is that the cards were randomly placed in the deck.
Effect : The spectator is given a free choice of placing two cards anywhere in a deck of cards. They can even be handed the pack so that they can place the cards back in the deck by their self. The card magician then takes back the pack and in full view of the audience, cleanly plucks out the spectator's two cards.
Watch the trick being performed on the magic video on this page which also includes an explanation of the best workings of the trick.
Alternative Tip :
You could also use a duplicate pack of cards and use two identical pairs of cards to make the trick even more convincing.
This is simple misdirection, meaning the fact that the audience believe that they have viewed the cards being pulled out at a very fast speed. Due to this, they probably will not question the validity of the stunt.
