Unliftable Blue Light-Heavy Deck by Iñaki and Javier Franco

The Unliftable Blue Light-Heavy Deck

Place the blue Unliftable deck on a suitable, smooth surface and invite a spectator to lift it. The specially prepared deck resists their attempt, while you can lift it yourself. The effect is designed to be easy to set up and perform.

How the gimmick works

The method uses a vacuum effect, not glue, magnets, or electronics. For the best performance, use a completely smooth, clean, non-porous surface. The gimmick can be removed and transferred to another deck.

The cards can be handled and examined by spectators, though a magician inspecting the deck may notice it is specially prepared. Instructions explain which surfaces work best.
