WATCH VIDEO | THIS MAN HAS BLOWN AWAY THE INTERNET WITH AN AMAZING CARD TRICK

Since it's highly contentious,  it would be fitting to say that magic may or may not be real!

But the tricks and stunts magicians spend their lives practicing in order to entertain us, come pretty close to convincing us. While it's all smoke and mirrors, but because we don't exactly know how they do the things they do, we can allow a part of ourselves to simply be enchanted and amazed by it.

And that's exactly how people are feeling about a recent trick from close-up magician Eric Chien

The young man, who hails from China, put on an incredible performance at the FISM World Championships of Magic back in July, going on to win the award for 'Best Trick'.

Now that a video of his infamous 'Ribbon' magic peformance has surfaced online, viewers have been left speechless. In the six-minute video, Eric takes a ribbon and some playing cards out of a box and people watch as he somehow manages to change the colour of the cards from red to blue, before making cards vanish into thin air and reappear.

As if this wasn't enough to play around with your mind, he also changes the colour of his vest and seemingly cuts a card in half, before putting it back together again and transforming the cards into silver coins.

In a post on his YouTube channel, the magician said: "I am really excited to share my FISM Act with everyone.

"I am really excited to share my FISM Act with everyone. Though winning FISM is a big accomplishment, it is also just the beginning for me. I've been behind the scenes for most of my magic career and it's finally time for me to be on stage performing," Eric wrote in his post.
