REMOTE TELEPATHY
At a party, bar or any kind of
gathering, you approach someone and
ask them to "pick a card, any card."
It helps if you have a real deck, but
in the event that you don't, you can
use an imaginary deck of cards.
Whichever method is used, be sure and
play it up, use a little flash. If you
are using an imaginary deck, act as if
you have a real one. Make your victim
actually pick a card from the "deck"
that you just flushed and fanned.
Have the person who picked the card
announce it to the crowd or even write
it down.
You then go to the phone, dial a
number, and ask to speak to "Glablock
the Great," or "The Wizard" or "The
Sorceress."
Whatever.
You then say, "Sorceress, there is
someone here holding a card." Hand the
phone to your victim and watch their
face as "The Sorceress" tells them
their card.
If you want to really impress them,
make it a long distance number that
you dial.
I've watched people look for hidden
microphones and bugs, check for extra
phone lines etc, trying to figure
this one out.
Here's how you do it.
For this one you need what is called a
"Confederate." A confederate is a
friend who knows the routine. You can
be confederates for each other and
reverse roles whenever the opportunity
presents.
You use a very simple code. When you
ask to speak to "Glabock The Great"
(or whatever name or title you agree
on). Your confederate starts counting
down the cards . . . "Ace, King,
Queen" and so forth. When they hit the
number, you say, "Glablock The Great,"
at which time they start counting
down the suit, "Spade, Heart, Club,
Diamond." When the correct suit is hit,
you quickly say, "I have a person here
holding a card." You then hand the phone
to the victim who hears a mysterious
voice say "You have the Jack of Hearts."
Or whatever the card was. They then
hang up.
You're simply AMAZING!!
Get this down pat and you can apply it
to different things. Such as furniture
in a room etc. Just don't use more
than two variables in your code and
remember the KISS principle. Keep It
Simple Stupid.
One hint; Try to pick a confederate
that is home or by a phone on a fairly
reliable basis.
