Tossed Out Deck is a mentalism effect in which a deck of cards, held together by a rubber band, is tossed out to the audience for them to peek at a random card. After three or more people have selected a card in this manner, the mentalist can name all the cards selected.

Developed by David Hoy as "Dr. Faust" in 1963.

Was known to be performed by Orson Welles.
