We're back with Robert Steve Spangler.
He has one more experiment for us.
What is it?
>> It's actually a trick.
You love magic.
>> Uh-huh. >> I grew up in a family of magicians.
I told you a couple times ago that- >> Yep.
>> And so I thought why not do a card trick?
>> Right. >> So this is your card trick.
I could have you pick a card like this, but you would see all the cards.
So what I want you to do is you're gonna pick a card, but I don't want the audience
to see it and I definitely don't want the cameras to see it.
So you pick yourself a card.
>> All right. >> Excellent, good, you take a look at it.
>> All right. >> Got it,
can you put it in your back pocket cuz I want to be able to see it a little
bit later on?
>> Mm-hm.
>> All right, so
the only thing that's different about this is that most card tricks are all the same.
Is that you pick a card, and
then the magician finds some way to tell you what the name of the card is.
The only thing that makes it fun is kinda the in-between, right?
So here's the in-between.
I took a five gallon bucket, and I put a hole in the five gallon bucket, okay.
So that doesn't seem like it's super special.
But the best part is this, is that I'm gonna tape
up the top of the five gallon bucket like this and like this.
So now here's where the fun part comes.
You are gonna hang on to the bucket, okay?
Now could you bring down the rope?
So they're going to bring down the rope here.
So here watch this.
So here's this rope.
And now I'm gonna hook you on to, no, no, no, I'm going to hook this here.
So now, would you guys open up the doors?
I've got another way to launch the cards, all right.
So we're just gonna push the cards up into the air.
So here's what we're gonna do.
Good.
So what I did was this, is I have these buckets that are here, and
we took 10,000 cards.
We're gonna go this way, yeah, there you go.
We took 10,000 cards.
See, the cards that are here, and I divided them up into spades, hearts,
diamonds, and clubs.
>> Okay. >> So the idea is this,
is that with some help, so I have some helpers, okay?
And what we're gonna do is we're gonna put the cards down inside here.
And then we're gonna push them up into the air, and
hopefully one card will show up in the bucket.
Got it? >> That sounds great.
>> Good, so you should probably stand over here,
just because this is kinda your area.
>> Okay. >> And if I were you,
I would probably put those on instead, good.
>> Okay.
>> And these will be for me.
There they are.
See this is Brian, Carly and Jeff.
And you should probably just put those on, I'm just gonna say.
It's not a big deal but I'd just put them on.
They're thought protectors.
Okay, can you hear?
>> Yes. >> Is everything okay?
>> Yes. >> Okay, good, all right, perfect.
So now watch what's gonna happen.
I think you're gonna like this.
All right, so here we go.
We got a cap for, nice.
All right, so Ellen, this is liquid nitrogen inside here.
So it's nothing dangerous.
Well, yeah, it's very dangerous.
So don't try this at home.
Don't even try it at a friend's home.
We're going to cap it off in just a second.
Then we drop it in the bucket.
And we're going to pour the cards on top.
Got it, guys?
All right, you ready?
Okay, cap it off nice and tight, really tight.
Drop it in, good job.
Now let's pour these on top.
There we go.
Okay, now good.
Now Ellen, it's expanding inside,
that gas is- [SOUND] >> See how it?
Yeah, that was a good one.
This is the simplest way in order to do a card trick.
All right, but stay here.
I'll be right back, all right.
>> All right.
>> So hang on.
>> All right.
>> Hold on, all right.
Bring down the bucket.
I can only hope.
[NOISE] All right, all right.
I've got tape on it, like this.
All right, so here's what happens.
Would you do me a favor?
I want you to just reach into your pocket, get the card out.
>> Uh-huh.
>> All right, let me take the tape off of this,
good, and get the tape off of this, good.
Show the audience the card.
>> Four of hearts. >> All right, here we go.
Reach inside.
There's one.
Nice.
>> No.
My god!
>> Yeah.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> My first card trick with you.
>> My god!
>> I love it!
>> [APPLAUSE] >> It's so simple!
You just carry around a lot of this stuff.
>> My God!
