This easy-to-do stunner from FISM-Winner Mortenn Christiansen is one of the fairest and most impossible predictions you’ll ever see.

“Mortenn’s Jumbo Card Trick” is the perfect example of why many consider Mortenn to be one of the most creative magicians in the world. You’ll be smiling from ear to ear when you see how deviously simple the method is. It gives you full freedom to focus on your presentation and enjoy the type of interactions that make it impossible for an audience to forget you.

You hand a completely normal deck of cards to the audience to be shuffled. A jumbo card is also introduced and placed somewhere that will remain in full view. Once the audience is done shuffling, the deck is retrieved and you invite someone (or several someones) to help you choose a card in the cleanest and most direct way possible.

The deck is split into two halves. Your audience selects which one you will toss away (no equivoque). This is repeated until you have just a few cards left. These cards are spread and someone chooses the exact card they want. Despite how impossibly fair this whole process was, both the selection and Jumbo cards are turned around to reveal they perfectly match.

“Mortenn’s Jumbo Card Trick” uses an ingenious gaff that is self-contained within a custom-made jumbo card. This gimmick makes the routine easy to do, allowing you to put all your energy into creating an entertaining and memorable experience for your audience. If you don’t want to use the “toss away” selection process, you don’t have to. You really are just using a normal deck of cards. So you can have the card picked in any way you want.

Each set comes with a ready-to-go, professional gimmick crafted out from high-quality Bicycle cards, as well as expert video instructions that teach you everything you need to get the most out of this routine.

“Mortenn’s Jumbo Card Trick” works in nearly any environment from parlor & stage shows, to dinner parties, backyard BBQs and even close up. Get it from Vanishing Inc. today!

Note: You don't need a hat to perform this, although it does look pretty cool.

It was great thanks

I was curious about Mortenn's Jumbo Card Trick and knew it wasn’t included in his masterclass on Vanishing Inc., so I decided to purchase it—and I’m glad I did! This prop is a wonderful addition to any magician’s repertoire.

The trick is simple to use, making it accessible for magicians of all skill levels, yet it delivers a big impact. I recently used it as part of a routine at my residency, and it was a hit with the audience. The jumbo cards are eye-catching, making it perfect for parlor or stage performances. This shouldn't be done close-up.

One of the standout features is its practicality. The prop is well-made, with durable, high-quality materials that will hold up to repeated use. It also packs flat, which is a huge bonus for performers on the go. It doesn’t take up much space in your case, yet it plays large, commanding attention and creating memorable moments for your spectators. I was able to get everyone in the bar/venue involved!

If you’re looking for a versatile, audience-tested effect that’s easy to carry and perform, Mortenn’s Jumbo Card Trick is a fantastic choice. It performed well in a bar full of adults having beverages if you know what I mean!

I'm always looking for funny and magical effects that pack small and plays big. This checks all of the boxes. Very clever and easy to perform. At first I thought that it was a bit overpriced, but actually I'll gladly pay $40 to add three or four funny magical minutes to my act.

 

Duvaul

Awesome and simple. Im excited to try this out in front of people. The presentation may need to be adjusted as the creators humor is not my style at all but it has the same feel as bill abbotts smart ass deck but it can be done with a non gimmicked-deck. It seems like a trick that can be added in at any point in your show but i will prob do it first to introduce my character.

 

Edward

Definitely fun to perform. Using the gaff takes a little practice (a few hours for me) to perform comfortably and keep imperceptible to the audience. It packs small and the cardboard case it ships in protects the product.

So simple and yet so baffling. What a great idea. This will please everyone who gets it.

 

Shep

This trick is everything that is promised in the description... Packs small (and flat) and plays big... Easy to do... AND SO IMPACTFUL!

It's quick, visual, intriguing, and strong. It gets the audience involved without them having to join you on stage. And it's a fooler! I LOVE THIS!

 

Tjark

I really like this one.
I had no idea how the effect was accomplished (I'm not the most experienced Magician, so I often have no clue when watching a trailer), and I am very happy with the the method.
It is easy to learn and very practical. This will 100% go into my Christmas show for the family.

 

Brandon

Very easy to perform so it allows you to focus on your presentation. Also, the fact that it packs supper thin makes it a great addition if you are traveling by air with your props. While it is great for stage, it is easy enough to reset that it could even be used while strolling tableside. Wouldn't recommend it for a cocktail party situation as you have to watch your angles slightly.

 

Jeffrey

But this now. I was able to pick it up during Black Friday for $10 less; however, it’s worth the full price if you weren’t able to purchase it on sale.

Simply, yes but it is a fantastic effect you can use for Parlor or Stage. You can’t find a cheaper effect with such a strong effect for these platforms.

 

Scott

This is perfect for a comedy break. Excellent and simple to do. Thinking of picking up a card from the floor, (bend over, change your mind, stop halfway,switch cards) movement deception switch. This is simple and a great fooler.

 

Simon

Very Simple great trick

 

David

Clever principle, - I think - , although I could tell immediately from the way it was demonstrated in the promo video exactly what was happening when his hand adjusted the chosen card behind the prediction jumbo card. So I didn't buy it to learn the secret. I like the pocket version better than the hat version as the method seems less obvious and in practicing I found it a lot easier to accomplish the secret without making the adjustment noted in the promo and the instructional video. I plan to use this. I like the comedy of throwing away the unchosen cards and the totally free choice. But I don't want to lose a deck of Bicycle cards each show. So I may try to make it up using cheapo decks from Dollar Tree.

 

Chris

SO simple. SO fooling. SO brief. Excellent for those times when you have a very brief appearance somewhere.

 

Peter

Love it - a beautifully simple method that is almost invisible, combined with a very entertaining delivery. Maximum entertainment for minimum work - my sort of effect!

 

Jack

I saw Mortenn lecture this effect at The Session 2023, but the lecture notes where it was mentioned had sold out by the time I had gotten over there. I'm so glad I've finally purchased this, the method is so simple yet so clever, the routine is like a joy to perform and it's a fun, exciting and engaging trick that fits nearly everyone's personalities. This is going straight into my acts.

 

Neil

This arrived today and I've already watched the tutorial. Whilst the mechanics are super simple this is also the beauty of the effect and means you can focus on any presentation you wish. This really is the definition of packs small plays HUGE! 1000% recommend you buy this if you're a parlour/stage performer. Now I just need to find a hat! 🧢

 

Paul

Great routine

 

Russell

This is a great effect, HOWEVER, both of the jumbo cards that I received were cut substantially different than the jumbo card Mortenn uses in the demo/instructional video. Many thanks to Vanishing Inc.'s excellent customer service for replacing the first jumbo card. Without exposing the method, suffice it to say that both Mortenn's Jumbo Cards that I received cannot be used in a close stand-up environment for people with good eyesight. It would be quite easy for the spectators on the front two rows to see the method. I am giving this four stars, because I like the trick and should be able to make one that is cut better and will be safer to use without the chance of exposure.
