There's plenty of mentalism among these videos. In fact, think of a number between 10 and 19, then, starting with the trick at the top of the list (Chris Westfall's "Cheeky Triumph"), count down that many tricks. Don't forget to keep your finger on whatever trick you land on. Now add the two digits of your chosen number together - so if you chose 17, you would add 1 and 7, which equals eight - then count that many tricks back up the list. I'm guessing your finger will land on a mental effect.
