I'd like to start my performance by saying
90 percent of everything is crap.
90 percent of everything is crap.

Započeo bih nastup ovim riječima:
90 posto svega je glupost.
90 posto svega je glupost.

(Smijeh)
00:20
It's called Sturgeon's law,
and what that means
and what that means
2

2277
To je Sturgeonov zakon, a znači
00:22
is that the majority of anything
is always bad.
is always bad.

10426

kako je većina bilo čega
uvijek loša.
uvijek loša.
00:29
I have a giraffe here.
4
17447
1779
Ovdje imam žirafu.
00:31
I'm going to throw the giraffe
behind my back
behind my back
5
19226
2284
Bacit ću je iza sebe
00:33
and whoever catches it is going
to help me on this next thing.
to help me on this next thing.
6
21510
3204
i tko god je uhvati pomoći će mi
sa sljedećim zadatkom.
sa sljedećim zadatkom.
00:38
Sir, you caught the giraffe.
7
26474
3181
Gospodine, vi ste uhvatili žirafu.
00:41
I have a playing card in my hand.
8
29655
2306
U ruci držim kartu.
00:44
Freely name any card in the deck.
9
32806
3970
Recite bilo koju kartu.
00:49
Audience member: 10 of hearts.
10
37577
1652
Član publike: herc 10.
00:51
Helder Guimarães: 10 of hearts.
11
39229
1687
Helder Guimarãe: herc 10.
00:52
You could have named any card in the deck,
12
40916
2103
Mogli ste reći bilo koju kartu,
00:55
but you said the 10 of hearts.
13
43019
2276
ali rekli ste "herc 10".
00:57
Ninety percent of everything is crap,
14
45901
1929
Devedeset posto svega je glupost,
00:59
so there's this to prove that
Sturgeon was correct.
Sturgeon was correct.
15
47830
3873
a ovo dokazuje kako je
Sturgeon bio u pravu.
Sturgeon bio u pravu.
01:03

(Smijeh)
01:13
Sir, this is not your show.
19
61404
3193
Gospodine, ovo nije vaš show!
01:16
(Laughter)
20
64597
4336
(Smijeh)
01:20
Keep the giraffe for a moment, okay?
21
68933
3519
Zadržite žirafu na trenutak, može?
01:24
Jesus.
22
72962
1831
Svašta.
01:26
(Laughter)
23
74793
2091
(Smijeh)
01:28
Crazy people.
24
76884
1752
Ludih li ljudi.
01:30
Well, the truth is,
25
78636
3379
Kako bilo, istina je,
01:34
why is the majority of everything bad?
26
82015
4813
zašto je većina svega loša?
01:38
And my answer is: I think we stop
thinking too soon.
thinking too soon.
27
86828
4183
Moj odgovor glasi: mislim
da prerano prestajemo razmišljati.
da prerano prestajemo razmišljati.
01:43
I'll give you a clear little example,
28
91011
2020
Dat ću vam jednostavan primjer,
01:45
something that people used to do
around the turn of the century --
around the turn of the century --
29
93031
4133
nešto što su ljudi radili
na prijelazu stoljeća --
na prijelazu stoljeća --
01:49
not this century, the other one.
30
97164
2406
ne ovog stoljeća, onog drugog.
01:51
The idea was to take a piece of paper
31
99570
3004
Trebalo je uzeti komadić papira,
01:54
and fold it inside out
using only your weaker hand,
using only your weaker hand,
32
102574
5228
presaviti ga nedominantnom rukom,
01:59
in my case, the left hand.
33
107802
1855
u mom slučaju lijevom rukom.
02:01
Something that would look like this.
34
109657
4456
To bi ovako izgledalo.
02:13
By the way you reacted, I can see
your lack of interest.
your lack of interest.
35
121858
3609
Sudeći po vašoj reakciji,
vidim da niste zainteresirani.
vidim da niste zainteresirani.
02:17
(Laughter)
36
125467
1638
(Smijeh)
02:19
But that's okay, I understand why.
37
127105
2011
Ali nema veze, razumijem.
02:21
We stop thinking too soon.
38
129116
1676
Prerano prestajemo razmišljati.
02:22
But if we give it
a little bit more thought,
a little bit more thought,
39
130792
2136
Ali ukoliko to malo zakomplicirate,
02:24
like a paper clip.
40
132928
1368
npr. dodavši spajalicu.
02:26
A paper clip makes this a little bit
more interesting.
more interesting.
41
134296
5580
Spajalica to malo začini.
02:31
Not only that, if instead of using
my hand with the fingers,
my hand with the fingers,
42
139876
2991
Ne samo to,
ako umjesto ruke i prstiju
ako umjesto ruke i prstiju
02:34
I use my hand closed into a fist,
43
142867
2078
koristim samo šaku,
02:36
that makes this even a little
bit more interesting.
bit more interesting.
44
144945
3374
bit će još zanimljivije.
02:40
Not only that, but I will impose myself
a time limit of one second,
a time limit of one second,
45
148319
4891
I to nije sve, zadat ću si
vremenski rok od jedne sekunde,
vremenski rok od jedne sekunde,
02:45
something that would look like this.
46
153210
5030
a to bi ovako izgledalo.
02:52
Now -- no, no, no.
47
160170
2061
Da vidimo -- ne, ne, ne.
02:54
Sturgeon may be correct.
48
162231
3467
Sturgeon je možda bio u pravu.
02:57
But he doesn't have to be correct forever.
49
165698
2298
Ali ne mora zauvijek biti u pravu.
02:59
Things can always change.
50
167996
1218
Sve je promjenjivo.
03:01
Sir, what was the card?
51
169214
2077
Gospodine, koja je karta bila u pitanju?
03:03
The 10 of hearts?
52
171291
2119
Herc deset?
03:05
There's this to prove that things
can always change --
can always change --
53
173410
5163
Evo dokaza da je sve promjenjivo --
03:10
the 10 of hearts.
54
178573
2266
herc deset.
03:12
(Applause)
55
180839
3159
(Pljesak)
03:15
Secrets are important.
56
183998
3266
Tajne su važne.
03:19
And secrets are valuable.
57
187846
2560
Tajne su vrijedne.
03:22
And this is the best secret
I've ever experienced.
I've ever experienced.
58
190406
4484
A ovo je najbolja tajna ikad.
03:26
It starts with a deck of cards
onto the table,
onto the table,
59
194890
3091
Počinje sa špilom karata na stolu,
03:29
an old man and a claim,
60
197981
3158
starcem i tvrdnjom:
"Neću ni taknuti špil sve do kraja."
03:33
"I will not touch the deck till the end."
61
201139
4201
03:37
It doesn't matter who the man was,
62
205340
1688
Nije bitno tko je taj čovjek,
03:39
all that matters was that sentence
ringing in my head:
ringing in my head:
63
207028
5535
bitna je samo rečenica
koja mi neprestano odzvanja u glavi.
koja mi neprestano odzvanja u glavi.
03:44
"I will not touch the deck till the end."
64
212642
3834
"Neću ni taknuti špil sve do kraja."
03:48
Now, during all this time,
65
216476
1635
Cijelo to vrijeme,
03:50
he was holding a small notebook
66
218111
2340
držao je malu bilježnicu
03:52
that sometimes he would open
and flip through the pages
and flip through the pages
67
220451
2811
koju bi s vremena na vrijeme
otvorio, prelistao
otvorio, prelistao
03:55
and look at something.
68
223262
1603
i nešto pogledao.
03:56
But I was not really
paying attention to the book
paying attention to the book
69
224865
3624
Ali ja nisam pazio na bilježnicu
04:00
because I was paying attention the deck
and the claim he had made before,
and the claim he had made before,
70
228489
4587
jer sam pazio na špil
i njegovu prijašnju tvrdnju:
i njegovu prijašnju tvrdnju:
04:05
"I will not touch the deck till the end."
71
233076
3444
"Neću ni taknuti špil sve do kraja."
04:08
Now sir, you have the giraffe.
72
236520
1695
Gospodine sa žirafom,
04:10
Go ahead, throw it in any direction
73
238215
1690
sad je bacite bilo gdje
04:11
so that you can find
someone else at random.
someone else at random.
74
239905
2217
da možete nasumično
izabrati nekog drugog.
izabrati nekog drugog.
04:15
Perfect. Sir, you're going to play
my role in this story.
my role in this story.
75
243025
4132
Odlično. Gospodine,
glumit ćete mene u ovoj priči.
glumit ćete mene u ovoj priči.
04:19
The old man turned to me and he said,
76
247157
2124
Čovjek se okrenuo prema meni i rekao:
04:21
"You could pick a red card
or a black card."
or a black card."
77
249281
2397
"Izaberite ili crvenu ili crnu kartu."
04:23
My answer was ...
78
251678
1391
A moj odgovor je bio...
04:25
Audience member 2: The black card.
79
253069
1650
Član publike 2: Crna.
04:26
HG: Indeed!
80
254719
1311
HG: Uistinu!
04:28
It was a black card.
81
256030
1608
Bila je crna karta.
04:30
He said, "It could be a club or a spade,"
82
258194
2513
Rekao je: "Ili tref ili pik."
04:32
and my answer was ...
83
260707
1753
A moj odgovor je bio...
04:34
Audience member 2: Spade.
84
262460
1607
Član publike 2: Pik.
04:36
HG: Indeed! It was a spade.
85
264384
3435
HG: Uistinu! Pik.
04:39
He said, "It could be a high spade
or a low spade."
or a low spade."
86
267819
3135
Rekao je: "Ili visoki broj ili niski."
04:42
And my answer was ...
87
270954
1865
A moj odgovor je bio...
04:44
Audience member 2: A high spade.
88
272819
1698
Član publike 2: Visoki.
04:46
HG: Indeed! It was a high spade.
89
274517
2680
HG: Uistinu! Pik, visoki.
04:49
Since it's a high spade,
it could be a nine, a 10,
it could be a nine, a 10,
90
277197
2453
Kako se radi o visokoj karti,
može biti 9 ili 10,
može biti 9 ili 10,
04:51
a jack, king, queen or the ace of spades.
91
279650
2923
dečko, kralj, kraljica ili as.
04:54
And my answer was ...
92
282573
1845
A moj odgovor je bio...
04:56
Audience member 2: The king.
93
284418
1741
Član publike 2: Kralj.
04:58
HG: The king of spades, indeed.
94
286159
3052
HG: Kralj pik, uistinu!
Gospodine, budimo iskreni.
05:02
Now sir, let's be fair.
95
290275
1142
05:03
You selected black, you selected spade,
96
291417
3004
Vi ste izabrali crnu kartu i pik,
05:06
you selected the high spade,
and you selected -- sorry?
and you selected -- sorry?
97
294421
2590
izabrali ste visoku kartu i --
što je ono bilo?
što je ono bilo?
05:09
Audience member 2: King.
HG: King of spades.
HG: King of spades.
98
297011
2119
Član publike 2: Kralj.
HG: Pik kralj.
HG: Pik kralj.
05:11
Did you feel I influenced you
in any decision?
in any decision?
99
299130
2204
Jeste li imali osjećaj
da vas navodim?
da vas navodim?
ČP2: Ne, samo sam osjetio vašu energiju.
05:13
Audience member 2: No, I just felt
your energy.
your energy.
100
301801
2249
HG: Ali bio je to slobodan izbor, zar ne?
05:16
HG: But it was a free choice, correct?
101
304089
1842
Jer ako nije, možemo ispočetka.
05:17
Because if not, we could start
all over again.
all over again.
102
305931
2163
Bilo je pošteno?
ČP 2: Apsolutno!
ČP 2: Apsolutno!
05:20
But it was really fair?
Audience member 2: Absolutely.
Audience member 2: Absolutely.
103
308094
2545
HG: Starac se okrenuo
i postavio mi još jedno pitanje.
i postavio mi još jedno pitanje.
05:22
HG: Now, the old man turned to me
and he asked me one more question,
and he asked me one more question,
104
310639
3319
da kažem broj između 1 i 52.
05:25
a number between one and 52.
105
313958
3066
05:29
And the first number I thought of was ...
106
317024
2455
Prvi broj koji mi je pao na pamet bijaše:
05:31
Audience member 2: 17.
107
319479
1362
ČP 2: 17.
05:32
HG: Indeed! It was the 17.
108
320841
4077
HG: Uistinu - 17!
05:36
The old man only said one more thing:
109
324918
3059
Starac je rekao još jednu stvar:
05:39
"This is the end."
110
327977
2819
"Ovo je kraj."
05:42
And I knew exactly what that meant.
111
330796
4188
Znao sam točno što to znači.
05:46
I knew that he was going
to touch the deck.
to touch the deck.
112
334984
2637
Znao sam da će se uhvatiti špila.
05:50
Everything that you're about to see
is exactly as it looked.
is exactly as it looked.
113
338749
6428
Vidjet ćete kako je to točno izgledalo.
05:57
He took the deck out of the box.
114
345177
3571
Izvadio je špil iz kutije.
06:00
Nothing in the box.
115
348748
1849
Kutija je bila prazna.
Brojao je: "Jedan, dva, tri, četiri, pet,
šest, sedam, osam, devet, deset."
šest, sedam, osam, devet, deset."
06:03
He counted, "One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10."
five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10."
116
351726
9324
06:13
The tension was building.
117
361827
1889
Napetost je rasla.
06:16
(Laughter)
118
364092
2894
(Smijeh)
06:19
"11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17."
119
367758
8382
"...11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17."
06:29
And on the 17, instead of
the king of spades,
the king of spades,
120
377077
4479
I na 17, umjesto kralja pik
06:33
something appeared
in the middle of the deck,
in the middle of the deck,
121
381556
4051
nešto se drugo pojavilo na sredini špila,
06:37
that later, I would realize
was actually a secret.
was actually a secret.
122
385607
4755
a za to sam kasnije saznao
da je bila tajna.
da je bila tajna.
06:43
The old man stood up, he left.
123
391903
2840
Starac je ustao i otišao.
06:46
I never saw him again.
124
394743
1360
Više ga nikada nisam vidio.
06:49
But he left his notebook
125
397530
2932
Ali ostavio je bilježnicu
06:52
that was there from the beginning.
126
400462
1911
koja je bila ondje od početka.
06:55
And when I picked it up,
127
403031
2535
Kad sam je uzeo,
06:57
that was the best secret
I've ever experienced.
I've ever experienced.
128
405566
5584
bila je to najbolja tajna ikad.
07:04
We are defined by the secrets we keep
129
412230
4171
Definiraju nas tajne koje čuvamo
07:08
and by the secrets we share.
130
416401
2151
i one koje dijelimo.
07:10
And this was his way
of sharing a secret with me.
of sharing a secret with me.
131
418552
4865
A na ovaj je način on podijelio
svoju tajnu sa mnom.
svoju tajnu sa mnom.
07:15
(Applause)
132
423417
4653
(Pljesak)
07:24
Crazy shit! Now --
133
432430
1968
Ludilo! E sad --
07:26
(Laughter)
134
434398
2348
(Smijeh)
07:30
I believe that amazing things
happen all the time.
happen all the time.
135
438166
6409
vjerujem da se nevjerojatne stvari
neprestano događaju.
neprestano događaju.
Uistinu.
07:36
I really do.
136
444575
1667
07:38
And the reason why we don't see
them as often,
them as often,
137
446242
3178
No ne vidimo ih tako često
07:41
it's because we don't
place ourselves in a position
place ourselves in a position
138
449420
2946
zato što se ne stavljamo u ulogu
07:44
to search for those amazing things.
139
452366
2498
tragatelja za nevjerojatnim stvarima.
07:47
But what if we decided to search
for those amazing things,
for those amazing things,
140
455748
4754
Ali što bi se dogodilo da odlučimo
tragati za tim nevjerojatnim stvarima,
tragati za tim nevjerojatnim stvarima,
07:52
for those small coincidences
in life that are truly amazing?

za malim životnim slučajnostima
koje su uistinu nevjerojatne?

Imate žirafu,
07:58
So you have the giraffe,
142
466742
1613
08:00
go ahead, throw it in any direction
so you find one last person at random.
so you find one last person at random.
143

Gospodine,
08:09
do you have, with you,
a United States $1 bill?
a United States $1 bill?
145
477861
5336
imate li sa sobom novčanicu od 1$?
08:15
Audience member 3: I think so.
146
483197
1638
Član publike 3: Mislim da da.
08:16
HG: Yes? You see, a coincidence!
147
484835
2638
HG: Da? Vidite, slučajnost!
08:19
(Laughter)
148
487473
2704
(Smijeh)
08:22
Let's make sure you have it.
149
490177
1824
'Ajmo provjeriti.
08:24
Do you have it?
150
492001
1290
Imate li je?
08:25
Audience member 3: Yes.
HG: Yes! Perfect.

151
493291
2274
Član publike 3: Da.
HG: Odlično!

08:27
Now, I want you to do exactly the same
thing I am about to do.
thing I am about to do.
152
495565
2974
Napravit ćete isto što i ja.
08:30
I have a dollar bill here to explain.
153
498539
1791
Objasnit ću vam na svojoj novčanici.
08:32
I want you to take the dollar bill,
154
500330
1739
Uzmite svoju novčanicu,
08:34
and fold the Washington part
inside, like this.
inside, like this.
155
502069
3530
presavijte dio s Washingtonom - ovako.
08:37
So you get this kind of big square, okay?
156
505599
2980
Dobijete ovaj veliki kvadrat, dobro?
08:40
Now, I want you to take the bill
and fold it like this, lengthwise,
and fold it like this, lengthwise,
157
508579
3956
Sada je ovako presavijte - po dužini.
08:44
so it becomes like a rectangle,
158
512535
1519
Dobit ćete pravokutnik.
08:46
and then again --
really fold it, really crease it --
really fold it, really crease it --
159
514054
2519
Opet je dobro presavijte,
neka se poznaju nabori --
neka se poznaju nabori --
08:48
and when you have it,
160
516573
1484
kad to učinite,
08:50
please fold the bill again
into a little square like this
into a little square like this
161
518057
3476
ponovno presavijte novčanicu
u kvadrat poput ovoga
u kvadrat poput ovoga
08:53
and let me know when you have it.
162
521533
2328
i javite mi kad uspijete.
08:56
Do you have it? Perfect.
163
524708
1228
Jeste li? Odlično.
08:57
Now, I'm going to approach,
164
525936
2365
Sad ću vam prići
09:00
and before we start,
165
528301
1499
i prije no što počnemo
09:01
I want to make sure that we do this
in very, very serious conditions.
in very, very serious conditions.
166
529800
3297
želim da radimo u jako,
jako ozbiljnim uvjetima.
jako ozbiljnim uvjetima.
Najprije nam treba marker i spajalica.
09:05
First of all, I want to ensure that we
have a marker and we have a paper clip.
have a marker and we have a paper clip.
167
533097
5595
09:10
First of all, take the marker
and go ahead and sign the bill.
and go ahead and sign the bill.
168
538692
3457
Sada uzmite marker
i potpišite se na novčanicu.
i potpišite se na novčanicu.
09:14
And this is the reason why:
169
542149
1726
A evo i zašto:
09:15
later, I'm going to be doing
a bunch of stuff on stage
a bunch of stuff on stage
170
543875
2631
kasnije ću svašta raditi na pozornici
09:18
and I don't want you to think,
171
546506
1518
i ne želim da pomislite
09:20
oh, while I was distracted by Helder,
172
548024
2455
"oh, dok je meni Helder odvlačio pažnju,
09:22
someone came onstage and swapped the bill.
173
550479
2079
netko je zamijenio novčanice."
09:24
So I want to make sure
it's exactly the same bill.
it's exactly the same bill.
174
552558
2475
Želim da budemo sigurni
da je to ista novčanica.
da je to ista novčanica.
09:27
Now not only that, I want you
to take the paper clip
to take the paper clip
175
555033
2499
I to nije sve, želim da uzmete spajalicu
09:29
and put it around the bill.
176
557532
2200
i stavite je na novčanicu.
09:31
So even if nobody comes onstage
and switches the bill,
and switches the bill,
177
559732
2606
Čak i da nitko ne dođe
zamijeniti novčanice,
zamijeniti novčanice,
09:34
I don't have enough time
to go open the bill and close it
to go open the bill and close it
178
562338
3279
neću imati dovoljno vremena
da je otvorim i zatvorim
da je otvorim i zatvorim
09:37
and see what I don't want to see.
179
565617
1639
da vidim ono što ne želim vidjeti.
09:39
Is that fair?
180
567280
1161
Zvuči pošteno?
Vratite mi marker.
09:40
Now you can give me the marker back.
181
568441
1787
Tako, jako jednostavno,
09:42
And just like that, very clearly,
182
570228
2260
09:44
I want to make sure that
we place this in full view
we place this in full view
183
572488
3019
želim da je postavimo tako
da je svi mogu gledati
da je svi mogu gledati
09:47
from the beginning of this experience
184
575507
5186
od početka ovog doživljaja.
09:52
and to make sure that everyone
is going to see it,
is going to see it,
185
580693
2481
Da budemo sigurni kako
je svi mogu vidjeti,
je svi mogu vidjeti,
09:55
we're going to actually have
a camera man onstage.
a camera man onstage.
186
583174
3765
postavit ćemo kameru na pozornicu.
09:58
Yes, perfect, so that you can see.
187
586939
2310
E tako, da svi možete vidjeti.
10:01
That's your signature? Yes? Perfect.
188
589249
2290
To je vaš potpis? Da?
Odlično.
Odlično.
Za ovo ćemo koristiti špil i čašu.
10:03
Now, we're going to use
also the deck and a glass for this.
also the deck and a glass for this.
189
591579
6992
10:11
And we're going to put
ourselves in a position
ourselves in a position
190
599151
2818
Stavit ćemo se
10:13
to search for an amazing coincidence.
191
601969
2884
u ulogu tragača
za nevjerojatnim slučajnostima.
za nevjerojatnim slučajnostima.
10:16
Do you mind, can you help me with this?
192
604853
1940
Možete li mi pomoći?
10:18
Go ahead and take some cards and shuffle.
193
606793
2654
Uzmite karte i promiješajte ih.
10:21
And do you mind, can you
take some cards and shuffle?

Ako vam nije problem,
možete li promiješati karte?
možete li promiješati karte?
10:23
You can take some cards and shuffle.
195
611993
2031
Uzmite karte i miješajte.
10:26
You can shuffle cards
in a variety of ways.
in a variety of ways.
196
614024
2078
Možete ih miješati kako god hoćete.
10:28
You can shuffle cards like this.
197
616102
1532
Ovako.
10:29
You can shuffle cards
in a more messed up way,

198
617634
2181
Ili malo čudnije.
10:31
something like this.
199
619815
1055
ovako nekako.
Možete ih miješati na američki način.
10:32
You can shuffle cards in the American way.

Budući da sam Portugalac,
mislim da vas nemam pravo tome učiti.

10:34
As a Portuguese, I don't feel entitled
to teach you guys how to do it.
to teach you guys how to do it.
201
622913
3333
Najvažnije je ono što slijedi nakon
miješanja karti,
miješanja karti,
10:38
But the important part is
after shuffling the cards,
after shuffling the cards,
202
626246
2452
uvijek ih presijecite i popunite kartama.
10:40
always remember
to cut and complete the cards.

Možete li to, gospodine?
10:44
Please cut and complete.
205
632663
1196
Presijecite i popunite.

And when you have it,
place the cards up in the air.

206
633859
2662
Kad to napravite, podignite ih u zrak.
10:48
And you too, cut and complete
and up in the air.

Vi isto - presijecite,
popunite, podignite.

Špil karata što ga je promiješalo

10:56
Now, very clearly, I'm going
to gather the deck together.
to gather the deck together.
210
644403
4561
Sad ću ih jednostavno spojiti u špil.
11:02
And just like that.
211
650494
2739
Tako.
11:06
I'm going to search for a coincidence
in front of everyone.

6182
Tragat ću za slučajnosti
pred svima vama.
pred svima vama.
11:15
I'm going to try.
213
663955
1523
Pokušat ću.
11:25
I have some cards that maybe,
214
673490
4199
Imam neke karte koje možda,
11:29
maybe they don't mean anything.
215
677689
2283
možda ne znače ništa.
11:32
But maybe that's because
we are not paying close attention.
we are not paying close attention.
216
680904
2771
Ali možda je to zato što ne pazimo.
11:36
Because maybe, maybe they mean a lot.
217
684734
3583
Možda, možda znače jako puno.
11:40
Before we start,
sir, you gave me a dollar bill.

222
699174
3257
kako otvaram vašu novčanicu
11:54
and reveal a small secret that we created.
223
702431

i otkrivam malu tajnu koju smo stvorili.
11:59
And the secret of this dollar bill
is the serial number.

12:05
Madam, can you take the dollar bill?
225
713357
2923
Gospođo, uzmite ovu novčanicu.
12:09
In the serial number, there is a letter.
226

Sedam.
12:20

Ali to bi mogla biti samo slučajnost.
12:23
What is the second number?

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Helder Guimarães - MagicianUsing a deck of cards and other simple props, Helder Guimarães gets up close to play with your perceptions and preconceptions.
Why you should listen
Helder Guimarães slips and slides cards on a table, wowing you with invisible technique, unorthodox psychology and fresh humor. As a close-up magician, he's won international awards for his elegantly thought-through performances, which merge a nuanced stagecraft with good old how-does-he-do-it sleight of hand. He is the world's youngest-ever World Champion of Card Magic. He reflects on his craft in the enigmatic out-of-print book, Reflections.
His appearances at LA's Magic Castle led him to be awarded the title of Parlour Magician of The Year, in 2011 and 2012, recognition that drew hours-long queues as audiences (and fellow magicians) flocked to the simple and astonishing act. Also, in 2012, he co-created a show called Nothing to Hide, with Derek DelGaudio, which opened at the Geffen Playhouse, directed by magic superfan Neil Patrick Harris. In 2013, the show was taken to Off-Broadway where it stayed for a very successful held-over run of 110 performances.
