Outta Sight is being released in the next few weeks. This was one of the most talked about effects from my recent lecture tour. A different handling on the tossed out deck that fooled many magicians, not only during the lecture tour, but at Mindvention as well. It was the best selling item on my lecture tour and totally sold out.

What makes this version different. The deck is examined and shuffled by anyone before it begins. The cards are freely shown to be different (no glued together cards). Once the deck is banded, the performer lifts up the various parts of the deck showing DIFFERENT CARDS as he explains what is to be done and how to peek at a card.When have you seen someone do that before?

The deck is tossed out and three people each peek at a card. Immediately and with NO FISHING, the performer correctly begins to divine each person's card correctly telling that person something about his card. Finally he names all three cards.

Those at my lecture can attest, this method floored the magicians in attendance and few had any idea as to how it was done until the secret was shown.

Here is a video from one of the lectures showing just how impossible this looks:

Sounds amazing and what a deal at that. This is a must have for myself.
2010 looks like it is going to be a good year for magic.

It is PRICED too low for the effect, but with the recession and dealers still having a rough time, I decided to keep it at $20 to keep it within the range of most performers. That is why my most recent release Dissolving Aces was only $10.00.

Those who know the method all think this is priced too low, but $20 is the price so take advantage of it.

Here is the updated official blog complete with the bonus effect:

OUTTA SIGHT by Devin Knight

This was one of the most talked about effects from Devin Knight's
recent lecture tour. A different handling for the tossed-out deck that
fooled many magicians.

What makes this version different? The deck is examined and shuffled
by a spectator before the effect begins. The cards are freely shown to
be different(no glued together cards)to the audience. Once the deck is
banded, the performer lifts up the various parts of the deck showing
the audience DIFFERENT CARDS as he explains how to peek at a card.

The SAME deck is tossed out and three people each peek at a card.
Immediately and with NO FISHING, the performer begins to divine each
person's card, correctly telling that person something
about his or her card. Read that again, you tell each person something about
the card, such as the value or color. Finally the performer correctly
names all three cards.

Those who saw Devin perform this can attest this method floored the
magicians in attendance, and few had any idea as to how it was done
until the secret was shown.

* ONLY ONE DECK IS USED
* NO SWITCHES!
* DECK IS ACTUALLY SHUFFLED BY A SPECTATOR AT THE BEGINNING

BONUS: UNGIMMICKED TOSSED-OUT. You will also learn how to do a
tossed-out deck using any regular deck. Yes even a borrowed deck. Toss
it out, let three people stand and peek at cards. You name the cards
and they sit down. A revolutionary method developed by the late Al Mann and Devin
Knight, based on a little known principle created by Ormond McGill. Do
it anytime you need to do a tossed-out deck routine and forgot to
bring yours.

COMPLETE WITH SPECIAL BICYCLE DECK AND DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS.

Just purchased this.Im really intrigued to see how the ungimmicked tossed-out deck works.By the way can the deck be used for other effects other than the tossed-out deck?

The tossed-deck can be used for other effects but none are explained in the directions. Many will find the ungimmicked version worth the price of the trick as the method is LITTLE known.

I will definitely get this.

Devin's thinking is always FIRST CLASS!

Sidenote: I'm not sure I got which McGill original principle was, but if it's what I guess it is... You are giving away all the store for the price of a sample, so to speak!
Then you'll rise right before my eyes, on wings that fill the sky, like a phoenix rising!

McGill's method is almost unknown. The basic idea was written up in the now defunct Hocus Pocus Magazine. He taught it in a few lectures he gave but that was back in the early 50s and most magicians don't remember it. Al Mann was lucky enough to know about the principle. We improved it, added some advance techniques and that is included as a bonus with my Outta Sight. Yes you really can do a tossed out deck routine using an ungimmicked deck with no duplicates. No fishing, you name the cards and they sit down. Probably only a handful of people even know the original McGill method and even if you do, you don't know the additions that Mann and I developed as they have never appeared in print and are being revealed for the first time in this release.

Does the magician have to handle the cards between each spectator's peek?

No, you don't have to handle the deck at all once it is tossed out. It can be tossed back to you after three cards are peeked at and you immediately put it in your pocket with out doing anything. I personally give the deck to other people, but they can toss it to anyone they like.

Thoughttheif10 - you purchased it? Why can't I find this at any of the typical places that sells Devin's material? Where can I find this?

Hocus Pocus has it, in a few days, other dealers will have it. It arrives at Murphy's on Monday and then will be sent to other dealers.
