The Magician’s Trick
A magician was performing at a crowded party. He got up on stage, and with a dramatic flair, he said, “Watch carefully, everyone! I’m about to perform the most amazing trick you’ve ever seen!”
He pulled out a deck of cards and shuffled them with impressive speed. Then, with a flourish, he asked the audience to choose a card. After a few moments, he performed a quick sleight of hand, and the card was gone.
He grinned and said, “I’ve just made your card disappear. And now, it’s back in the deck!”
The crowd clapped, but one skeptical guy at the back shouted, “Hey, you didn’t really make the card disappear! I saw you put it back in your pocket!”
The magician, looking surprised, said, “Well, I guess the real trick is convincing you that it disappeared.”
The guy, unimpressed, said, “I could do that. You just need a good audience.”
The magician smiled and said, “Ah, yes. And you need a good act to perform. Have you considered being the one who heckles? You’ve got the perfect talent!”
