Misled Bill

They say money can't buy happiness.

But it can be part of a pretty incredible magic trick.

Just take out a banknote, such as a $100 bill. Fold it in half and slide a playing card from your deck into the fold.

Invite your participants to watch closely.

Holding the card between your thumb and forefinger, slowly slide it into the bill. The card visibly passes straight through the material itself.

Unfold the $100 bill to show that it is completely intact.

Show the playing card as well, with absolutely nothing special to see.

This illusion is easy to perform, and the gimmick does all the work.
