I wanted to vote for this cause it had NPH. I did vote for it cause it shows exactly why he's so flippin awesome.

yeah simple magic trick brilliantly executed. this is what derren brown talks about in 'the devil's picturebook'.. showmanship.. entertainment.. mystery..

Big up vote for Neil Patrick Harris!

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!

^Idiotic reaction => excellent showmanship

"Neil Patrick Harris mystifies Jimmy with a card trick."

To be fair, you could mystify Jimmy with a lit match.


But still nicely played by NPH

NPH never fails to amuse.

i think that card is marked with a diagonal bend

OHSNAP!

and i think jimmy might be in on it, he gives the card a little bend in the same direction right before he gives it back to nph

no, it seems like i may have been completely wrong

or maybe, you are meant to focus on the bend on the card so he can put an identical one in his shoe. That trick had me spinnin, videosift- just spinnin!

Yayyy! I'm so amused! I want to clap like an idiot!!

HE'SAWITCHBURNHIM!

Who doesn't love NPH?

I honestly thought he was just going to keep pulling envelopes until he got that card.

Hey Videosifters! After being a regular visitor to the sift for the last year or so, I actually registered here today JUST to be able to comment on this.

He's not using a Svengali deck, and Jimmy Fallon isn't helping him out. NPH is actually an accomplished magician, and currently sits on the board of directors at the Magic Castle in Hollywood (where I work). Ta-da! Just good old fashioned slight of hand, my friends.

Brine,

Sweet that you've joined the club, you should post some of your favorite tricks would probably make for good sift bait.

Neil Patrick Harris...make love to me

lol thats what i thought too

Maybe just me but the video would not play. I watched it here:
