Footballer Is Blowing People’s Minds With Incredible Storytelling Card Trick

Fulham defender Antonee 'Jedi' Robinson is stunning his teammates with a real-life Jedi mind trick. Check out the video below:

Everyone has a party trick, some are okay – like wiggling your ears, for instance – while others are outright fantastic, like Jedi's card shuffling skills.

The defender's teammates seemed thrilled after he told them a little story about his night out at 673 King Street.

To be clear this is a fictional night out and a fairly well-known card shuffling trick, but that doesn't mean it's not impressive.

As people were quick to comment on Twitter: "Class content lads keep it up just what I want to see ahead of the new season."

While another clearly wasn't a fan of the club but couldn't get over the trick: "Hate Fulham, but f***, that was good."

So, just how did he do the trick? Well the trick is originally by James Galea, an Australian magician, and while it seems pretty crazy it's actually a fairly simple hack.

All you need is a deck of cards and to remember the order of the story.

First things first, you're going to arrange the cards in the order of the story, which goes a little something like this: "Red Queen, Red Queen, Black Queen, Black Queen, Jack, 6, 7, 3, King, 2, 5, 2, 5, Jack, 7, King, 6, 7, 3, King, 6, 7, 3, King, 2, 5, 10, 10, 10, 10, Jack, 4, 4, 8, 8, 8, 4, 9, 9, 9, 9, 8, A, A, A, A, Jack, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6."

Then you take the bottom card, which should be a 6 and you're going to just bend the bottom corner.

That way, when you ask someone to cut the cards, you'll be able to see a little crease.

This is important as once you ask someone to cut the cards, you're going to use the crease to cut the cards again, putting them in the same order as before.

The next thing to do is to make sure you have the story down.

The real magic of this trick is how you tell the story - you want to make it seem like you really went on a wild night out, and the cards just so happen to be in the same order.

You can do that by rewatching Jedi's masterful mind trick and rehearsing alongside.
