A splendid climax for the Rising Cards Through the Air if you are performing on a stage and have two assistants.

Same as for Rising Cards Through the Air. Then as last selected card rises from deck and remains suspended in air, performer passes his hands around card to show no connection. At command, card rises and drops and finally drops almost to the floor. Then it comes up again to performer's hand.

How it is done

The method, 3 drawings and all it needs, inside the library.

Check back on December 1, 2026 to join the waiting list.
