It was over a year ago, during the shoot for "Senses" when Chris and I sat down to dinner and he said, "Oh, you might like this."
He pulled out a deck, I selected a card, he had me place that card halfway into the deck and he placed everything back in the box. I held on to my card as he started rambling about something about Arthur and the Sword in the Stone. I didn't know where he was going with the story until he started to slowly pull the box off of the deck. I knew that the card would spill everywhere, but he told me to just hang onto my card. I watched as I pinched my card and the rest of the deck was just suspended in air with nothing more than my two fingers gripping a single chosen card. He went on about the story of Arthur and how the sword could only be pulled from the stone by the chosen one, at that time, he told me to concentrate on breaking it free as he reached out and gently spread the deck into a slow, beautiful fan and my card was freed. It was a great moment, unexpected and refreshingly different. See for yourself below. Murphy's Magic Studios is very proud to have been chosen by Chris to produce this great effect and I personally have gotten a ton of mileage from it over the past year. Hope you will too. //ARTHUR// By Christopher Wiehl "Chris showed me this effect and I instantly loved it. The deck was solid hanging from my fingers, then melted like butter in Chris' hands. I wanted it immediately!" - Justin Flom “How the hell doesn't that happen Chris? What are you, Satan's Spawn? Fooled!” - Jack Carpenter “It's not often I feel that intense need to buy a magic trick, but that feeling quickly came back to me in full force when I first saw Chris perform this trick. There are so many untapped possibilities and routines with this deck I can't wait to see what people discover.” Chris Mayhew "A solid fooler" - John Guastaferro

I was fortunate enough to witness this little miracle in person..
Words cannot describe that moment I felt when I held onto the card as the deck was suspended in mid-air.. My magician brain wasn't even trying to figure it out or look for methods. I was caught in a moment of pure wonder and excitement. I can only imagine how a layman would feel! I was fooled! And the routining was beautiful! The story was great. Definitely a worker, and absolutely amazing! I love it! Highly recommended.. Good job Chris!!! -Dustin |

Could this be done with a business card?

Can you explain more of what you are asking sean? You can replace the card with a business card if that is what you are wondering.

The video for this looks quite amazing, Chris. Can one use the deck immediately to do something else? Can the deck be handed out at any point for examination?

This is by far one of the greatest pieces of magic I have seen in a while. I was fortunate enough to watch this bad boy effect grow into something extremely clever and unique. Congrats Chris on its release! If this doesn't sell out.. I'd be surprised!! U know what would be killer?..being able to lap a whole deck without spilling any cards on floor;)

Thanks, guys.
I typically do not follow this trick up. For me, it is one of my most powerful tricks and its a sure fire closer. I can and will use the deck prior to the Arthur presentation as there is some good flexibility with the deck usage. I will then leave it on the table, do something else, then go into Arthur. If you have questions please contact me! I will love to help yall

Looks great. What will happen if they shake the whole thing up and down? Will it hold?
