Size Surprise by Tenyo Magic

Created by: Tenyo Magic

Size Surprise is a visually stunning close-up magic trick that plays with perception and logic. The magician shows five cards (Ace to Five of Clubs) and asks the audience which is the biggest.

This trick is perfect for family-friendly performances, as it’s easy to perform and highly engaging. It’s ideal for magicians who want a quick, visual effect that requires minimal setup and practice. However, it relies on a gimmick, which may limit creative variations for advanced performers.
