Ellen DeGeneres was really excited to have David Blaine on The Ellen Show and raved about how good his special was. She was so excited in fact, that she quickly asked Blaine to do some weird stuff on the show.
Blaine pulled a deck of cards and asked for an audience member to help him with the card trick. He picked an audience member and asked DeGeneres to mix the deck a bit.
He gave DeGeneres a sharpie and asked her to take one out but not to show anyone. Blaine had DeGeneres put her card back and the audience member had to guess where the card was in the deck.
The magician then said he liked the trick so much, he was going to watch it from the audience. The audience member guessed that the card was 13th from the top of the deck and when DeGeneres counted, it wasn't actually her card.
Blaine explained that when she put the card in the deck, he took it, folded it in four and flicked it under her watch. He asked her to check her watch and from underneath it, she pulled the card.
