A playing card is selected and returned to a deck of cards. The cards are shuffled face up into face down making a mess of the cards. A random card is handed to the spectator, they wave this card over the deck. The deck is now completely corrected, all cards now facing the same way and the spectator is holding their card. Everything is now as it was at the beginning of the effect. (expert tips on the slop shuffle)
A wine bottle appears from nowhere. A coin too large to fit the neck is struck against the glass — and impossibly, it's inside. Trapped. Solid through solid, with nowhere to go.

Michael Ammar has opened with this routine for over 30 years, and one watch tells you exactly why. See it today.
A card is freely selected, lost in the deck, and cut as many times as the spectator likes. Then the performer asks a simple but personal question: who sits on your shoulder and influences your life?
