Out Of This World is a classic card effect by Paul Curry in 1942. Many magic performers have performed their own variations of this trick. It has been billed as "the trick that fooled Winston Churchill."

Effect: A spectator separates a deck of cards into reds and blacks without looking at the faces of the cards.

The method, though simple, is well hidden, and is usually enhanced by the presentation of the performer.
