How To Perform The Alternating Back Card Trick

Perform the Alternating Back Card Trick. Learn how to do this simple card trick from magician Christian Lee. It's bound to be a hit down the pub.


Step 1:

You will need

  • 2 playing cards
  • a little magical know-how

Step 2:

The trick

Take one card in each hand and hold them facing each other so the backs are facing outwards. Blow on them and they have flipped around. Magic! Or is it? No.

Step 3:

How it's done

Hold each card at the edges between your thumb and middle finger. Then blow on the cards for magical effect. This also distracts your audience from what you're really doing.
What you're really doing is clamping one hand around the edges of the card in the opposite hand. As you blow, bring one card over the other so that they swap places.
Repeat the same action to return the cards to their original positions.
It has to be quick enough to go unnoticed by your audience. Once you've got it just right, try impressing the ladies.

Try impressing the ladies. . . just make sure they are throughly drunk to where simpily standing up straight looks like magic. Does this guy ever come up with a trick that could fool a sober person?

im a professional magician and yes the trick is basic but if you're any good you can use it for a whole load of other tricks. but hey who am i to argue with the guys who think this trick is poor, after all they are performing all across europe to thousands of paying punters every night!

he bends them as he does it, and again it stands out like a sore thumb, he may be a 'magician' but he needs to work on perfecting his technique
