Question:No card tricks please.:)


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: No card tricks please.:)

I have one,

The trick scenario
A clock is drawn on a piece of paper. A
spectator is asked to think of an hour on the clock.
The magician starts tapping around the clock while the
spectator (not looking at the clock) says stop. When
he looks at the clock the pencil is on his number!

How it is done:
1.Draw a clock on a piece of paper


2.Have the spectator think of an hour on the clock.


3.Have him turn away from the clock and tell him your
going to start tapping on the clock and when he says
stop you'll be on his number.


4.Tell the spectator to count as you tap in his head
starting with the number he chooses and adding one.


For Example: if he chose 6 as his number he will start saying
7,8,9,and so on. And tell him to say stop when he
reaches 20.


5.All the magician has to remember is the number 7.
When you start tapping tap randomly all over the clock
until you reach seven taps. On the eighth tap place
the pencil on 12 and tap counter clockwise until the
spectator says stop. I he is honest and can count, it
will be his number.


6. This trick works best with 3 people watching. One
with his back turned and two watching so you cant pull
anything funny when the spectator says stop he can't
tell if it his # or not and will keep him more honest.
And the other two will be amazed big time!!
