Maxello Magic

Removing a deck from its case, the performer explains that one card is endowed with the shadow of a previous being. A spectator, who the performer comments looks like an admirable channeller, nominates ANY card. She removes it from the deck while another spectator places the card case in the center of the table. The chosen card is now placed on top of the case by the first spectator.

Everyone is invited to place their hands flat upon the table, little fingers touching, seance style around the case. The performer has joined in, his fingers lightly touching the case and the adjoining spectator's little fingers. The ring of energy is complete. With attention so firmly aroused, the chosen card, with no perceptible trickery, floats eerily off the case. It floats up, twists and moves a little, then floats back down. Any spectator may now remove the chosen card. It is indeed endowed with special forces.
