Martin has a knack for creating the most unfathomable magic and mentalism, His 'Any Card At Any Number' is just one example of this. There seems to be no explanation for the outcome, because the performer NEVER touches the cards and every choice is truly random.

Martin T. Hart's Perfect ACAAN

The first truly performable 'hands off' Any Card At Any Number demonstration, created by Martin T Hart. This trick has caused much controversy and disbelief. So, Martin took it to the live stage in New York, to perform the trick to a a sell-out crowd.

Martin's first perfect ACAAN was performed by Rebecca Herrera using a shuffled deck. Every choice is random, the spectators are real. This version caused magicians to shout 'fake', when in fact, what they were witnessing was a real performance.

Martin took his perfect ACAAN onto the hit American TV show 'Penn & Teller Fool Us', again performed by Emily Robinson-Hardy. Two genuine spectators named any card at any number. A jumbo size deck was used and Emily never touched them.

The trick was performed under the very strict conditions of the show, in front of a live theatre audience of over 500 people and two of magic's most respected magicians, Penn & Teller. None of the show's rules were broken and everything you see in the video is what happened live.

A Perfect ACAAN - Live Stage Performance

This performance, of Martin T Hart's Any Card At Any Number, was witnessed by a sell-out audience at the Players Theatre off-Broadway, New York. What you are about to witness is real. There are no stooges, no pre-show & no gimmicked cards are used in this demonstration. Here is Emily's Journey.

Martin took his perfect ACAAN to the live stage off Broadway, performed by Emily Robinson-Hardy using a jumbo size deck.
"The spectators really do freely name any card and any number between 1 & 52 and the cards are genuinely never touched by the magician. Once the card and number are called, the count down begins and the named card is there, at the chosen position. It's as clean as that" explains Martin.

"If you use pre-show or a stooge, there is no trick, but there is a trick, and it's a really really good trick" (Penn Jillette)

The secret to Martin T Hart's perfect ACAAN is currently not for sale, as it joins the ranks of his other mind-blowers, Rebecca Herrera's 'Seeing with your ears' 'The Vanhargen Twins Speed Telepathy Performance' and his many other miracles. ​

Martin says, "It's good to keep a little mystery in the world of magic. YouTube can't have all our secrets".

That said, Martin is planning a global lecture tour around Magic Clubs & Societies where he will reveal his methods in private. If you would like to add your club/society to the list, you can do so here.
