Subtle Secrets 2 by Thibault Ternon

Introducing Subtle Secrets 2 - The Impossible Trick

Most of us are familiar with Dai Vernon's "impossible trick," but let's be honest, how many people actually perform it?

In this 30-page booklet, Thibault Ternon takes us behind the scenes of this unique method. While previous writings on this effect have focused on just a few pages in French literature and boiled down to a simple "you have to improvise," the author provides concrete ideas on how to master this concept.

You will learn how to use luck to your advantage, master chance, and perform real miracles with a borrowed deck that has not been prepared and has been shuffled by the spectator themselves. There is no purer trick than this effect when presented correctly, since most of the time the magician does not even touch the deck during the trick.

Imagine: a prediction is given to the spectator beforehand. A deck of cards is given to be shuffled, and the magician never touches it. He simply asks the spectator to shuffle and cut the deck as many times as they wish. When they are ready, the spectator stops and turns over the first card that chance has placed on top of the deck. Then prediction will match...

This effect is one of many possible with this method, which is as crazy as it is daring, yet incredibly effective when done right. This booklet is here to give you all the keys you need to perform miracles like this yourself.

Warning
This booklet provides food for thought and ideas for paths to take, but the real work will be applying them and daring to perform this trick. If you don't agree with the idea of having to work on an effect a minimum amount before presenting it, if you want a trick that is "ready to go," don't buy this book. If, on the other hand, your mind revels in these kinds of slightly underground methods from the "Subtle Secrets" series, then this book is for you...
