Here is some simple sleight of hand and a little surprise. I know my handling is kinda sloppy. I'm working on it.
I shot some pretty awesome mentalism material with real spectators a couple days ago, but I decided to show you something else so people don't have to accuse me of using stooges.
My name is Miika Pelkonen and I will post a card magic related video every week for the next 12 months. That will make a total of 52 videos - just like there is 52 cards in a deck of cards. Check back every week for a new video and see how this project is doing. This is the original "365 project".

#36 Long Distance Trick
Lately people have wondered if some of these effects are setup, so I think that I should clear a one thing up. The reason why you can see the same people in some of the videos is that I film most of the tricks at a weekly magic meeting that I go to. The people you see in the videos are magicians and they are my friends, but they are never "in on it". There is always a method and I never use stooges, since I think that is the weakest solution to any problem.
So, no stooges here either. The lively fellow witnessing the trick this week is Sakari Wilenius, so thanks to him for helping out with this Long Distance Trick.

#35 Ennätystehdas
This is essentially what I did on TV earlier this year. A simple trick that is not so simple to do.
PS. I know I'm late with this one. New video coming tomorrow!

#34 Winrar
Here's a Triumph handling. We never have enough of those. This one is inspired by Dani DaOrtiz's beautiful effect Quick Triumph. Not only is this version here terribly titled, it is also unnecessarily complicated. Hopefully it will fool most of you when you watch it for the first time.
If not, then you are teh Winrar!
