Tell the guy what card you want and he'll pull it out. How he reads then so quickly is really fantastic.
The What the Hell card was 7 cards below the 6 of Spades on the spread. The royal flush was on top as well as the jack. He managed to undo the cuts and use the pre sorted deck for the story.

Watch it. Freeze it 20-30 times like I did. He is good because he is fast and well rehearsed. There is nothing special beyond that.

I haven't figured out the arm thing yet.

Arm thing is a mind-blower.

The arm thing was easy. I just did it to my wife. Watch the end when they cut to the audience and come back to him, his arms are positioned differently. Still love the card trick!

I thought I caught that. If the camera had been on him the whole time I think you might have still missed his re-positioning. But you have to have some pretty good shoulder rotation to be able to do the 2nd position. I can't roll my hands a quarter turn fingers locked. I'll give him that.

watch his bi-cep before he turn to thumps up. He probably let go and switch while talking (not in video).
