Axel Hecklau – Perfect Moment – close-up-version (English and German)

This routine is the little brother of the perfect moment with jumbo cards (K016).

Not for the stage, but for a performance in a small private circle at the table or at the bar.

After a “prelude” (Bonus Routine by Paul Vigil), a spectator has “proven” that he has a connection to you.
He chooses a card, which is memorized and returned to the deck.
The spectator sets his cell phone timer to a duration between 20 and 50 seconds and starts it and switches the screen off.
After a short time, even the spectator no longer knows exactly when the timer will ring.
The performer now places cards on the table one by one and stops at the exact moment the cell phone rings.

At this exact point – oh wonder – is the location of the chosen card.

They actually stop at the exact spot as soon as the cell phone rings (no trick technique is used when dealing the cards) – the spectators can watch very closely.
Approx. 45 minutes of video explanation (online or as a download) together with my great colleague Tobias Dostal
Including bonus trick (excellent psychologically preparation for the perfect moment ) by Paul Vigil
You can put together the deck of cards used for this trick yourself from your own card collection or order it here.

A card trick could hardly be more exciting.
