The Gift
A freely selected card matches a prediction
A spectator chooses any number between 1 and 52 and deals to that card face up. The spectator themselves removes the lid from the box and removes the prediction inside which is unfolded and seen to be 100% correct.
What is great about the trick is that the spectator can open the box themselves and can see there is only a single folded paper in the box which they can remove.
An impossible prediction with a clever method which has fooled some of the top minds in magic.
Winner of the Trick of the Year for 2017.
