Place the deck face down and start taking the cards from the top of the deck and counting off as you put those cards somewhere in the middle of the deck.Their #2 is now actually #3 because you have that one card behind them. You then slide the cards back down with the one lowered card still behind them. Let us suppose they choose the middle one which is, in your head, card #2. Ask a volunteer to choose one of the three cards that you have pulled up. They are really not the last three cards, because you still have that one that has been lowered back there. You pull up the last three cards of the deck and fan them out.The last card facing you and away from your audience has been lowered just a bit. You hold a deck of cards in your hand upright, as shown in the picture above.⌄ Scroll down to continue reading article ⌄ Note: They actually link when the snap occurs, but don’t reveal that. The paperclips will fly up into the air and land linked together. Now, hold each end of the bill with one hand and snap it straight.VERY IMPORTANT: The short side of the paper clip should be facing away from you this time, and the paper clip should be more toward the edge of the bill, not close to the fold. The second paper clip should be attached exactly the same way to the back piece of the bill and should also be over the middle piece as well.And be certain that the paper clip is toward the edge of the bill, not over toward the fold. VERY IMPORTANT: The short side of the paper clip should be facing you. Next, attach one of the paper clips to the front piece of the bill and over the middle piece as well.Fold a dollar bill, accordion style, in thirds, as done in the picture above.You are going to make two paperclips magically link in midair. The next time you need to go to a birthday or graduation party, and you have not had time to find the perfect gift for the occasion, try using a much larger bill for this trick and presenting that to the recipient afterward as their gift. There really is no magic to this trick, but no one will know that but you. Then quite casually, say, “I don’t think Denmark has elephants, except in zoos.” Pause and appear to be giving this some thought.Now, tell them to take the second letter of that country’s name and think of an animal that begins with that letter, but keep it secret as well.99.9% of the time they will choose Denmark (who’s heard of Djibouti?) Tell them to think of a country that begins with that letter, but not to say it out loud.Ask them to assign an alphabet letter to the number based upon A=1 B=2 C=3 and so forth (They will get D).Ask them to subtract 5 from that number (It will always be 4).Ask them to add the two digits of the answer.Ask them to then multiply that number by 9. Ask a single person to select a number between 2 and 9.That is the basis for this trick, and here are the easy steps: When 9 is multiplied by any number between 2 and 9, the digits of the answer will always add up to 9. Here’s a trick built upon a little quirk of math that not too many people know about.
