Shin Lim Americas Got Talent Champions - EPIC MAGIC CARD TRICK Revealed

In this video, I teach how to perform Shin Lim's Americas Got Talent The Champions final card trick. This is a very popular effect that has been around for years. It doesn't take long to learn either - however, you will need to practice in order to learn this card trick!

Shin Lim is a very talented magician who has greatly inspired me to become a better magician myself. I think it's amazing how he has the ability to captivate and hold an entire audience with nothing but a deck of cards.

This trick involves some key principles in magic including a card palm and double lift. Both of these require practice and misdirection. If you find them hard and want some tips, please ask me in the comment section below.

Stay magical,

Oscar

*DISCLAIMER*
Of course, revealing anything on the internet is controversial. Whilst I think that YouTube tutorials are great, revealing other peoples creations online is most certainly wrong unless that trick/slights is in the public domain. However, this is a very popular effect that is in the public domain. The other parts of the effect are not allowed to be revealed and so I have not revealed them in this video.

Easiest trick in the world.He teleports to the future and sees exactly what she will pick, then teleports back to pull this cheesy magic trick.Teleporting machines sell for 5.99 at Walmart.

What you guys need to understand is that knowing the trick is simple but permorfing it like shin lim takes years of perfection and confidence

[christopherblackwell]

This trick in my opinion is one of the absolute greatest in modern time.

Comment section needs to chill out. Remember people! Magic is NOT real. So of course, other people will know how to do the trick as well. Why did you click on the video if you are going to whine about the trick being revealed?

Shin lim foes not claim to be a magician.. he said many times he just worked hard on his tricks.. I am not sure why you didn't go to Agt.. if you know all his tricks...

[rogemontilla]

If his card tricks are easy to figure out, how come he’s two timed fooler in penn and teller show?

[daywill]

Now everyone knows this trick but not everyone is SHIN LIM....
The PRESENTATION is what that matters....!!!
There is a reason why he is the winner of agt !

(NOTE: The time stamps in my comment are for another video, not the one above, so you can't click them.) With regards to the Queen/2H switch and how he got the both 2H's together, if you watch the official AGT video on YouTube slow it down/stop it while he is showing her the deck to prove the cards are not all the same (around 2:17). This is a common thing magicians do. They are not doing this to prove that the cards are not the same, they are doing it to look for cards. He is looking for the 2H cards. At 2:19 notice the 2H. He pulls that card in very quickly, tucks it away out of sight, and keeps going. At 2:22 look at the deck and, oh my, there is another 2H (right by the 10S)! He splits the deck at that point making that 2H the top card, and puts the rest on the bottom (10S bottom card). However, he still has that other 2H tucked away and that goes on top as well. That's how he got both 2H together. Nifty.

I’ve been performing French Kiss for a long long time and I still get insane reactions to it. This is just one method as it’s the one I use. I think Shin used the top change instead of a double lift bc he’s so clean at that move and it allows for a more free handling of the selected card. Great job as always though Oscar Owen!

[markpointer]

Great tutorial. I know it isn’t to EVERYBODY’S taste, but I love your style, drama and ‘theatre’. Such a nice change from the usual, (nearly always AmericanI) monotone, garbled, emotion-less script. I think it’s great!
The only bit I still have problems with is the bit around 8:30 - 8:35. I can do it, but getting iit off smoothly, is mighty hard! Anyway, great work!!

[sherlinjeberzhiah]

[kaidenrattan]
