<snip>
Harrison Ford, Star Wars celebrity and a man of few words, had a choice phrase for illusionist David Blaine after the magician pulled off a mind-boggling card trick in the American actor's own kitchen.
In a recently resurfaced YouTube video, the Brooklyn, N.Y.-born magician, who is known for his high-profile televised stunts and one-on-one sleight of hand, asked the actor to think of any card in the deck.
The segment, from the ABC special Real or Magic, was originally posted by Blaine in January 2014, but is enjoying a resurgence, thanks to social media.
The 72-year-old actor is shown fingering through the deck, looking for his card, when Blaine decides to change directions.
"Here's what we'll do, Harrison," he says. "Do me a favour. Grab a piece of fruit for me, one that we can open up."

(20,886 posts)12. That one I can't tell you
But almost every magician can do that one. So, he starts out with the standard "I know your card" trick, and then he ups the anti by palming the card and inserting it into the orange.
