I'm gonna read your mind today.
through the screen.
Get ready.
Three mind tricks.
We're starting with the first one.
and what's really cool, is at the end of this video,
I'll tell you how you can read your friends' minds, too.
So the first trick.
Think of a number between one and ten.
Got the number?
Good.
Multiply that number times two.
If you need your phone calculator right now,
If you're pulling it out, that's totally fine.
Okay, add 8 to that number.
plus 8.
Now that you're caught up,
Go ahead and divide by two.
*nods head*
Now, take your current number, and subtract the
original number that you thought of.
the one through ten number.
The current number minus the one through ten number.
Okay, so that leaves you with an alphabet correlation, so
the first letter, A, is number one. Nineteen is S. Does that make sense?
good.
Go find your number that correlates to the letter.
Take that letter and think of a country
any country that you can think of that starts with that letter.
good. Got it?
So go ahead and take the second letter
of that country's name, and think of an animal
that starts with that letter.
Got it in your mind? Good. Think of the color of that animal.
So, if I did my mind reading correct,
You were thinking of a gray elephant in Denmark
*elephant sound*
So, if I was correct, go ahead and comment below
If you were thinking of something else, let me know what
you were thinking of
an eel, an eagle.
I won't tell you how the trick works right now
we'll talk about that at the end
let's jump to our second mind trick
here's trick number two and it requires some fire so don't do this at home we've
got six cards I need you to pick one of the cards and focus on it say it ten
times in a row you've got your card and you're focusing on it now I'm going to
shuffle these up here but even if you want to be fun go ahead and comment what
your card was in the comments below I'm gonna shuffle these and this is where
we're getting fire you're still got your card look into my eyes and say what
your card was okay I've selected a random card to be burnt so let's go
ahead and burn this card while you're saying your card that you
picked. Three. two. one. oh okay so while your card is burning here I'm going to I'm
going to put the other cards down really quick and let's see if we burned your
card correctly your card's missing. whoa so don't do that at home at all please
your parents will kill me. Do it some other way. This is our third mind-reading
trick and it's another math type trick but you get to pick any two-digit number
so my example would be picking twenty-three. Take a two-digit number and add those digits
together so if I picked twenty-three I would add two plus three. Got it? So
you've got your new number here and I need to take your original number
twenty-three minus five, does that make sense? So take your first number your
two-digit number minus what those digits add up to be so minus my example I get eighteen
so now you're going to take this chart if you're not with me pause the video do
the math correctly because when this works is really cool so we've got a
chart here so you have your number and it correlates to one of these symbols
down here I want you to tap the screen on your symbol when you find it
correctly. Tap the screen. When you tap the screen on your symbol I was able to
sense from your home to where I'm at right now and I can tell you what your
symbol is. Question: did you end up with the magic bunny ears coming out of the
half symbol? Because if you didn't you probably did the math wrong no no you
actually did do the math wrong because I'm going to explain the trick this
trick works just because it's multiples of 9 you have 9, 18, 27 and if you look at
closely on the chart actually you could kind of see that they all lined up it's
any of these multiples of 9 here with the magic bunny hats the math just works
that's why it's an awesome mind trick to play on your friends.
Let's go back to the card trick.
So your friends are going to love this card trick
because they're going to be mind-blown, they're not going to know
how you did it and it works with multiple people thinking of different
cards because all of them get replaced here's how it works you know five of
clubs for diamond King of Diamonds it doesn't matter what
cards you put out here as long as you have the duplicates to five of spades
we have the eight of clubs in the 8 of spades we've got the King Jack to the
four they're just different suits same number same color different suits as the
magician you want to have your friends focus on their card so hard that's why I
had you repeat it ten times at least so you forgot all the other cards that you
saw and didn't realize that they got swapped out now I randomly removed one
of them the fun thing you can do is hand out the deck have your friends pick a
card but they can't look at it put it off in your pocket throw it away
whatever make sure they never see that card again because you're going to lay
out five cards and magically you're going to say the one that's missing was
the card that they picked or that you selected this mind tricks similar to the
last one we did it was masked and it's almost always going to work you have
like a 90% chance you haven't think of a number between 1 and 10 you have a
multiply it times two you have them add eight you have them divide it by two and
then you're going to take their current number and subtract from the original
number they thought of the 1 through 10 number and then that's going to
correlate to this chart the alphabet 1 letter represents a random 26 is Z and
everyone is going to get to 4 based on the math now you're going to have them
think of a country with D so most people think of Denmark there's also Djibouti
and there's also the Dominican Republic I apologize if you live in those
countries but most people just because of their mind you're forcing them to
think so quickly they don't think of those other options so now they're stuck
with Denmark you ask them for the second letter of Denmark which is e or one way
you can also do is say go to the next letter in the alphabet
it's e think of an animal that starts with that letter most people think
elephants and if you're going quickly you just say what color is that animal
and you say, "Are you thinking of a gray elephant Denmark?" Most of time you're gonna get
people who say "what?!"
The second guess you can guess is an eel they're going to say
it's a green eel or an eagle, a brown eagle.
I'm going to read a random piece of fan mail that came in this week
