6. Wow!
That was very impressive.

And I'm still completely puzzled by the hand thing in the beginning.

9. I've got the hand thing...I think
Turn you hands to HIS ending, hands fully clenched position. Now twist them so that your thumbs are face down. It's a bit harder and tighter to do, but doable nonetheless.

At dinner I figured he must make a move somewhere, and upon getting home, sure enough he does.

He's doing it the way he tells US to do it until roughly 1:10. There, w/ camera pulled way back, he says, "Like this mate," ostensibly showing someone who is having trouble how to do it. Here he makes the switch, as his hands come apart to "re-demonstrate." Note that everyone else is already locked in; there may not even really be a guy having trouble and it's just his excuse to pull his hands them apart.

At least that's what I'm figuring.

Now as for the card trick. Holy hell. Never in a million years.

10. If you like that sort of thing
...and I do, no one is better than Ricky Jay. Get as close as you like, climb in his lap if you want, you'll never catch what he's doing.

Here Ricky does something equally twisted, without the patter. Just silence and the sound of the cards:

11. Very entertaining!
This reminds me of a scene from the movie
Brother from another Planet.
