Predict any freely chosen playing card, and the prediction is simply printed on the card box!

Imagine you ask a spectator to name a random playing card.

The choice is entirely free.

Next, you show that you predicted in advance the position of this card in the shuffled deck.

And the most special part?

The prediction is right on the card box!

Meet Outside the Box by Thomas Badar, a particularly clever and practical magic trick that allows you to perform an impressive card prediction.

Without difficult techniques, without complicated calculations, and without having to memorize anything.

An incredible prediction

You show a standard deck of cards.

A spectator is completely free to name a playing card.

Whichever card is chosen, you can show that you predicted the position of this card in advance.

The prediction turns out to be on the card box.

When the cards are checked, everything turns out to be exactly right!

A particularly strong effect, precisely because the spectator's choice seems so free and the card game is completely normal.

A regular deck of cards, without special cards

One of the biggest advantages of Outside the Box is that you do not need a specially prepared deck of cards.

You just use a standard deck of 52 different playing cards.

No duplicate cards.

No special gaff cards.

No specially marked deck of cards.

The spectator can simply examine the cards afterwards.

You can even use your own favorite deck of cards.

Thomas Badar recommends Bicycle Standard Playing Cards for this.

Please note: a deck of cards is not included. You will need a standard deck of cards yourself.

No sleight of hand or complicated techniques

Outside the Box is designed to be particularly easy to execute.

You don't need to master difficult card techniques.

You also don't have to memorize long sequences of cards or perform complex calculations.

The method is almost automatic.

This allows you to concentrate fully on the presentation and the interaction with your audience.

This makes Outside the Box interesting for both beginning magicians and experienced professionals looking for a reliable and practical prediction trick.

Ready for use again immediately

Outside the Box has an automatic reset.

That means that after performing the trick, you are immediately ready to present it again.

You do not need to carry out complicated preparation between different performances.

A major advantage is when you perform at multiple tables or constantly meet new people during an event.

Ideal for close-up magic, walk-around magic, and professional performances.

No table needed

You can perform Outside the Box entirely without a table.

That makes this trick particularly practical for magicians who regularly perform standing up.

You only need the necessary tool and a standard deck of cards.

This makes the trick easy to take along and present at virtually any desired moment.

And when will you be finished?

Then you can just continue with your other card tricks, because the card game is completely normal.

A universal tool for your repertoire

Outside the Box is more than just a single card prediction.

It is also a particularly handy tool that you can use as an alternative to other card tricks.

In the world of magic, this is also known as an 'out'.

Imagine that during another card trick, you don't end up exactly where you had hoped.

With Outside the Box, you can still present an impressive prediction.

This allows you to turn an unexpected situation into a powerful magical moment.

Just like with the well-known Invisible Deck, such a feature can be particularly valuable during professional performances.

Three different routines

With Outside the Box, you don't just get an explanation of the basic routine.

Thomas Badar teaches you three different presentations, so you can adapt the trick to different situations.

1. The classic prediction

The basic routine where a spectator names a random card and your prediction turns out to be on the card box.

A direct and powerful card trick that you can perform almost anywhere.

2. The interactive iPhone or iPad version

A special presentation using an iPhone or iPad.

With the help of a special Keynote presentation, the audience can play a role in the performance in an entertaining way.

You don't need a separate app for this.

The special Keynote presentation is part of the trick.

The iPad version in particular offers interesting possibilities for larger performances and stage presentations.

3. The fast version

Sometimes you want to perform a strong card trick without an extensive presentation.

Therefore, Outside the Box also contains a short, direct version.

Ideal when you want to quickly show an impressive effect.

Also suitable for the stage

Although Outside the Box is particularly suitable for close-up magic, you can also use the effect during larger performances.

With the special iPad presentation, you can adapt the routine for a stage setting.

This makes Outside the Box a versatile tool for various types of performances.

From the professional repertoire of Thomas Badar

Outside the Box is not a trick devised solely for a demonstration.

Thomas Badar uses the effect himself during his solo performances.

That makes this creation particularly interesting for magicians looking for material that is also highly practical.

The combination of a strong prediction, a standard deck of cards, and a simple method creates a particularly practical effect.
