Free Magic Trick - Easy Mind
Reading

With this free magic
trick the magician asks a member of the audience, a series
of questions, that are unique to that person. The spectator
then writes their answers on a piece of paper and places the
piece of paper in glass. At the same time, the magician is
seen to be concentrating deeply, appearing to use his magic
and psychic powers (a bit of acting required here) writing
his prediction on a separate piece of paper that he also
puts in another glass.
After the last question has been asked, the magician's
predicted answers are compared with the spectator's answers and
are found to be the same. This normally gets a great reaction
and makes the magician look as though he has amazing powers and
can read thoughts by magic.

Secret of this FREE
Magic Trick. The spectator is asked a
series of questions and asked to write them on a piece of
paper and place the piece of paper in a glass . After each
answer has been placed in the glass by the spectator, the
magician asks the spectator what answer they had given. The
magician acknowledges that he had also predicted that answer
and placed it in his glass.
Really, the magician writes the spectators answer one question
behind. Even though he writes the answer to the question one
question behind this is called a the one ahead principle. The
spectator has told the magician, the answer to the last
question asked which the magician will write and put in his
glass after asking the next question.
When the first question has been asked and the spectator
reveals his answer, the magician has placed his supposed
prediction in another glass at the same time. What he has
actually written on his paper is 'carrot' which is the most
probable answer to the final question that the spectator will
be asked shortly. This will allow the magician to write each
answer as the spectator reveals it. The spectator will be
unaware that the magician is writing his answers one question
behind. Take out the papers from the glasses and pair up the
answers. Stand back and watch the amazed expression of your
spectators as they are amazed by your magic prowess by
performing this magic trick.

You should find that most people will choose carrot as their
choice of vegetable, however this will not always be the case.
If they choose another answer then the audience will still be
impressed that you have predicted the other answers. If they do
choose another vegetable just claim that they were not on the
same wavelength or that you used up all your powers predicting
the other answers.
A lot of the magic atmosphere in this magic trick is due to the
presentation by the magician.
Be sure to practice your patter and act but make sure it is
also entertaining.
