The spectator chooses a card, which is lost in the deck. A magic pass, and a card mysteriously turns up face up in the center of the deck; but against all odds, it is not the one chosen by the spectator: it is the 5 of Hearts. The magician then counts the cards one by one from the 5, and the fifth one turns out to be... the chosen card. The four cards that were counted to get to the 5 of Hearts are turned face up... they're the four Aces! And as the icing on the cake, the magician shows that he couldn't have done it any other way, since the other cards in the deck are shown: they're all blank! A completely automatic trick, but devilishly effective! To buy: - a regular deck of cards click here. - a blank face deck of cards click here.

Alexandra Duvivier took part in the “Everyday Heroes” project. What's it all about? Let's hear from the documentary's producers, Underscore Films: « For that documentary, Everyday Heroes, we interviewed over fifty ‘heroes’ from every continent (aside from Antarctica). As the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic took hold of the world, we found ourselves overwhelmed with heartbreaking news. Amidst such sadness and uncertainty, we were yearning for positivity and connection. In light of this, we set out to create a film highlighting the positive stories coming out of the pandemic. In partnership with twenty producers from around the world, we were able to gather over 50 incredible stories. As the stories began coming together, we quickly realized that this film would not just be about positivity, but instead, about the humanity in people. The everyday heroes amongst us. We applaud you for all that you’ve done and are continuing to do for your community through magic, and we are so grateful to have had the opportunity to hear about the acts of kindness that you carried out during this time, as well as your wisdom and positive thinking :-) Many thanks and all the best. » Underscore Films This interview is available in 2 episodes.
