You jot them down on a whiteboard using a red or black dry erase marker as they shout them out (the louder, the better). Meanwhile, there’s a manila envelope clipped to the back of the board, completely visible the entire time. (No sneaky hidden tricks here!)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou detach the envelope, whip the whiteboard around to confirm the numbers match, and then, with all the flair of a seasoned magician, you pull out a single 6\" x 4\" index card from the envelope. Turn it over, and voilà! Written in large, bold numbers with black crayon is the correct prediction—a staggering 1 in 10,000 chance! If real magic existed, this is what it would look like (minus the rabbits, of course).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis clever system can predict answers to any question posed by your audience. It’s especially fab for small words, names, or numbers. The only limit?

He needed an engaging audience participation trick for a bustling plaza. He throws out a trivia question to the crowd, and those who answer correctly take a giant step forward. After a couple more questions, he counts the number of people still in the front row, which becomes the basis for a four-digit number that matches the prediction in the envelope, which has been in plain sight all along (no smoke and mirrors, just good fun!).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a reliable routine that’s been polished through hundreds of performances.","brand":"Philly Magic Tours","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56477087367492,"sku":"BIGPRED","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0943\/1826\/4644\/files\/79862-full.png?v=1783056004","url":"https:\/\/www.handpickedmagic.com\/products\/the-big-prediction-writer-by-robert-malissa-1","provider":"Hand Picked Magic ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
