Description & Effect
Revolutionize Your Invisible Deck with an Emotional Connection
The Invisible Deck has long been hailed as one of magic's most powerful secrets, yet it often suffers from a subtle flaw: a lack of inherent emotional attachment. While playing cards are familiar, they rarely evoke a strong personal connection. Imagine if you could harness the undeniable power of this classic effect but infuse it with a subject that resonates deeply with everyone – travel and dream destinations. Introducing 'Magic Video - Visa Versa' by Michel Huot, a groundbreaking digital download that transforms the traditional Invisible Deck into a truly unforgettable experience.
The Ultimate Vacation Prediction
'Visa Versa' takes the core concept of the Invisible Deck and elevates it to new heights. The magician presents a novel premise: a 'souvenir' deck featuring various countries. A spectator is invited to mentally select, or even call out, their ultimate dream vacation spot. Perhaps it's the romantic allure of Portugal, the vibrant energy of Japan, or the serene beauty of New Zealand. No matter their choice, when the magician spreads the deck, only one card is inexplicably reversed – and it perfectly matches the spectator's chosen country. This isn't just a trick; it's a shared moment of wonder, tapping into universal desires and personal memories, making the reveal incredibly impactful and personal.
Beyond the Basic Reveal: Enhanced Mentalism and Versatility
Michel Huot has ingeniously designed 'Visa Versa' to offer much more than a single stunning prediction. Each country card isn't just a name; it's packed with additional, subtly coded information like the country's capital city, population, and other intriguing facts. This opens up a wealth of possibilities for advanced mentalism routines. Imagine not only predicting the country but then revealing a specific detail about it, adding layers of impossibility to your performance. The best part? All this information is easily accessible, coded directly onto the card case or the cards themselves, requiring absolutely no memory work on your part. This allows you to focus purely on your presentation and audience engagement.
Perform Anywhere, Anytime
Whether you're performing close-up at a cocktail party, engaging small groups while table hopping, or delivering a compelling routine via a virtual Zoom show, 'Visa Versa' is perfectly suited for any setting. Its universal theme of travel instantly connects with audiences, making it an ideal icebreaker and conversation starter. The routine is designed for clarity and impact, ensuring a strong reaction every time. With Michel Huot's expert video instructions, you'll quickly master the nuances of this unique effect, adding a truly original and emotionally resonant piece to your magical repertoire. 'Visa Versa' isn't just a trick; it's an experience waiting to be shared.

The invisible deck is one of the strongest card tricks ever created. There is just one weakness: people are not emotionally attached to cards. But, people are attached to countries they want to visit or that they visited before (example: imagine how people are attached to the country they went for their honeymoon)
Effect
- Who loves to go on vacation, the magician asks? OF course, everyone. The reality is that even though vacations are fun, it is a major case of stress in families before, during and after the vacations. According to a study, vacations are the 5th reason why families argue. One of the things they argue about…the location. Where do we go next year? Well in my family, it was a nightmare. Now we found a solution. We bought a deck of cards with lots of countries on it. Each year, my 6-year-old son takes the deck, hides it in his back and turns a card upside down.
- Then, many weeks after that, when we decide when we will leave, we take the deck out and look at the card that was randomly reversed by my son. Neat right? This way, we have incredible surprises.
Sir, if you would choose a country, a place to go on vacation with your family, where would you go?
- Portugal
- Portugal…wow! That’s a place I would surely enjoy. Remember the deck I talked about? Well, tonight is the night. I brought it here and we will together discover where I will be going this year with my family.
The magician opens the deck. A different country visa is printed on each card. In the middle, only one card a card is reversed.
- Sir where was your dream vacation again?
- Portugal!
When the magician turns the card over, the card reads PORTUGAL.
- Well, I guess we will meet again this summer sir…
This effect is ideal for cocktail, table hopping OR zoom shows. Pimp-up your Invisible Deck with Michel Huot’s Visa-Versa.
In addition, each card has additional information like the country’s capitol, the population etc. Every thing is coded (very easy) on the card case or on the cards themselves (no memory work needed).
You can also use this deck as a normal deck that you would have bought at the souvenir stand at an airport. BE creative, lots of possibility (especially mentalism routines).
