Voleo bih da započem svoj performans
izjavom da je 90 procenata svega glupost.

00:20
It's called Sturgeon's law,
and what that means
and what that means
2
8149
2277
To se naziva Sterdženovim zakonom
i to znači
i to znači
00:22
is that the majority of anything
is always bad.
is always bad.

10426
4838
da je većina svega uvek loše.
00:29
I have a giraffe here.
4
17447
1779
Ovde imam žirafu.
00:31
I'm going to throw the giraffe
behind my back
behind my back
5
19226
2284
Baciću je iza svojih leđa
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 ko god je uhvati pomoći će mi
u sledećoj stvari.
u sledećoj stvari.
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 svojoj ruci imam kartu.
00:44
Freely name any card in the deck.
9
32806
3970
Slobodno izaberite
bilo koju kartu iz špila.
bilo koju kartu iz špila.
00:49
Audience member: 10 of hearts.
10
37577
1652
Član publike: desetka srce.
00:51
Helder Guimarães: 10 of hearts.
11
39229
1687
Helder Gujmares: desetka srce.
00:52
You could have named any card in the deck,
12
40916
2103
Mogli ste da izaberete
bilo koju kartu iz špila,
bilo koju kartu iz špila,
00:55
but you said the 10 of hearts.
13
43019
2276
ali ste rekli desetka srce.
00:57
Ninety percent of everything is crap,
14
45901
1929
90% svega je smeće,
00:59
so there's this to prove that
Sturgeon was correct.
Sturgeon was correct.
15
47830
3873
a ovo je dokaz da je Sterdžen
bio u pravu.
bio u pravu.
01:03

01:13
Sir, this is not your show.
19
61404
3193
Gospodine, ovo nije vaš performans.
01:16
(Laughter)
20
64597
4336
(Smeh)
01:20
Keep the giraffe for a moment, okay?
21
68933
3519
Držite žirafu na trenutak, u redu?
01:24
Jesus.
22
72962
1831
Bože.
01:26
(Laughter)
23
74793
2091
(Smeh)
01:28
Crazy people.
24
76884
1752
Ludi ljudi.
01:30
Well, the truth is,
25
78636
3379
Istina je
01:34
why is the majority of everything bad?
26
82015
4813
zašto je većina svega loše?
01:38
And my answer is: I think we stop
thinking too soon.
thinking too soon.
27
86828
4183
Moj odgovor je: mislim da prestajemo
da razmišljamo veoma brzo.
da razmišljamo veoma brzo.
01:43
I'll give you a clear little example,
28
91011
2020
Daću vam mali jasan primer,
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 početku ovog veka,
na početku ovog veka,
01:49
not this century, the other one.
30
97164
2406
ne ovog, već prethodnog.
01:51
The idea was to take a piece of paper
31
99570
3004
Ideja je da uzmete parče papira
01:54
and fold it inside out
using only your weaker hand,
using only your weaker hand,
32
102574
5228
i saveijete ga na unutra koristeći
samo vašu slabiju ruku,
samo vašu slabiju ruku,
01:59
in my case, the left hand.
33
107802
1855
u mom slučaju, levu.
02:01
Something that would look like this.
34
109657
4456
Nešto što izgleda otprilike ovako.
02:13
By the way you reacted, I can see
your lack of interest.
your lack of interest.
35
121858
3609
Primetio sam da ste reagovali
sa nezainteresovanošću.
sa nezainteresovanošću.
02:17
(Laughter)
36
125467
1638
(Smeh)
02:19
But that's okay, I understand why.
37
127105
2011
Ali to je u redu, razumem i zašto.
02:21
We stop thinking too soon.
38
129116
1676
Prestanemo da razmišljamo
veoma rano.
veoma rano.
02:22
But if we give it
a little bit more thought,
a little bit more thought,
39
130792
2136
Ali ako malo bolje razmislimo,
02:24
like a paper clip.
40
132928
1368
poput spajalice.
02:26
A paper clip makes this a little bit
more interesting.
more interesting.
41
134296
5580
Spajalica čini ovo malo zanimljivijim.
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, umesto da koristim
prste na ruci,
prste na ruci,
02:34
I use my hand closed into a fist,
43
142867
2078
koristim je zatvorenu u pesnicu,
02:36
that makes this even a little
bit more interesting.
bit more interesting.
44
144945
3374
što ovo čini još zanimljivijim.
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
Ne samo to, zadaću sebi vremensko
ograničenje od jedne sekunde,
ograničenje od jedne sekunde,
02:45
something that would look like this.
46
153210
5030
nešto što bi izgledalo ovako.
02:52
Now -- no, no, no.
47
160170
2061
Sad - ne, ne, ne.
02:54
Sturgeon may be correct.
48
162231
3467
Sterdžen je možda u pravu.
02:57
But he doesn't have to be correct forever.
49
165698
2298
Ali ne može biti zauvek.
02:59
Things can always change.
50
167996
1218
Stvari se uvek menjaju.
03:01
Sir, what was the card?
51
169214
2077
Gospodine, koja je bila karta?
03:03
The 10 of hearts?
52
171291
2119
Desetka srce?
03:05
There's this to prove that things
can always change --
can always change --
53
173410
5163
Ovo dokazuje da se stvari uvek
mogu menjati -
mogu menjati -
03:10
the 10 of hearts.
54
178573
2266
desetka srce.
03:12
(Applause)
55
180839
3159
(Aplauz)
03:15
Secrets are important.
56
183998
3266
Tajne su važne.
03:19
And secrets are valuable.
57
187846
2560
Tajne su i dragocene.
03:22
And this is the best secret
I've ever experienced.
I've ever experienced.
58
190406
4484
Ovo je najbolja tajna koju sam iskusio.
03:26
It starts with a deck of cards
onto the table,
onto the table,
59
194890
3091
Počinje špilom karata na stolu,
03:29
an old man and a claim,
60
197981
3158
starcem i tvrdnjom,
03:33
"I will not touch the deck till the end."
61
201139
4201
"Neću dotaći špil karata do kraja."
03:37
It doesn't matter who the man was,
62
205340
1688
Nije važno ko je bio čovek,
03:39
all that matters was that sentence
ringing in my head:
ringing in my head:
63
207028
5535
već je bitna rečenica koja mi
odzvanja u glavi:
odzvanja u glavi:
03:44
"I will not touch the deck till the end."
64
212642
3834
"Neću dotaći špil karata."
03:48
Now, during all this time,
65
216476
1635
Sve vreme
03:50
he was holding a small notebook
66
218111
2340
je držao malu svesku
03:52
that sometimes he would open
and flip through the pages
and flip through the pages
67
220451
2811
koju bi ponekad otvorio,
prelistao stranice
prelistao stranice
03:55
and look at something.
68
223262
1603
i gledao u nešto.
03:56
But I was not really
paying attention to the book
paying attention to the book
69
224865
3624
Ali zapravo nisam obraćao pažnju na svesku
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 se skoncentrisao
na špil i izjavu:
na špil i izjavu:
04:05
"I will not touch the deck till the end."
71
233076
3444
"Neću dotaći špil do kraja."
04:08
Now sir, you have the giraffe.
72
236520
1695
Gospodine, sada imate žirafu.
04:10
Go ahead, throw it in any direction
73
238215
1690
Samo napred, bacite je
u bilo kojem pravcu
u bilo kojem pravcu
04:11
so that you can find
someone else at random.
someone else at random.
74
239905
2217
tako da možete nasumično
da pronađete nekoga.
da pronađete nekoga.
04:15
Perfect. Sir, you're going to play
my role in this story.
my role in this story.
75
243025
4132
Sjajno. Gospodine, igraćete
moju ulogu u ovoj priči.
moju ulogu u ovoj priči.
04:19
The old man turned to me and he said,
76
247157
2124
Starac 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
"Mogli ste da izaberete crvenu
ili crnu kartu."
ili crnu kartu."
04:23
My answer was ...
78
251678
1391
Moj odgovor je bio...
04:25
Audience member 2: The black card.
79
253069
1650
Član publike br.2: Crna karta.
04:26
HG: Indeed!
80
254719
1311
HG: Tako je!
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:
"Mogao bi da bude tref ili pik."
"Mogao bi da bude tref ili pik."
04:32
and my answer was ...
83
260707
1753
i moj odgovor je bio...
04:34
Audience member 2: Spade.
84
262460
1607
Član publike br. 2: Pik.
04:36
HG: Indeed! It was a spade.
85
264384
3435
HG: Da! Bio je pik.
04:39
He said, "It could be a high spade
or a low spade."
or a low spade."
86
267819
3135
Rekao je: "Mogao je da bude veliki
ili mali pik."
ili mali pik."
04:42
And my answer was ...
87
270954
1865
I moj odgovor je bio...
04:44
Audience member 2: A high spade.
88
272819
1698
Član publike br.2: Veliki pik.
04:46
HG: Indeed! It was a high spade.
89
274517
2680
HG: Tako je! Bio je veliki pik.
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
Kada je veliki pik, mogla bi to
da bude devetka, desetka,
da bude devetka, desetka,
04:51
a jack, king, queen or the ace of spades.
91
279650
2923
žandar, kralj, kraljica ili kec.
04:54
And my answer was ...
92
282573
1845
I moj odgovor je bio...
04:56
Audience member 2: The king.
93
284418
1741
Član publike br2: Kralj.
04:58
HG: The king of spades, indeed.
94
286159
3052
HG: Kralj pik, tako je!
A sada, hajde da budemo korektni.
05:02
Now sir, let's be fair.
95
290275
1142
05:03
You selected black, you selected spade,
96
291417
3004
Izabrali ste crnu boju, pik,
05:06
you selected the high spade,
and you selected -- sorry?
and you selected -- sorry?
97
294421
2590
izabrali ste veliki pik
i izabrali ste... pardon?
i izabrali ste... pardon?
05:09
Audience member 2: King.
HG: King of spades.
HG: King of spades.
98
297011
2119
Član publike: "Kralja".
HG: Kralj pik.
HG: Kralj pik.
Da li ste osetili da sam uticao
na vas u bilo kojoj odluci?
na vas u bilo kojoj odluci?
05:11
Did you feel I influenced you
in any decision?
in any decision?
99
299130
2204
Član publike:
Ne, samo sam osetio vašu energiju.
Ne, samo sam osetio vašu energiju.
05:13
Audience member 2: No, I just felt
your energy.
your energy.
100
301801
2249
HG: Ali je bio slobodan izbor, zar ne?
05:16
HG: But it was a free choice, correct?
101
304089
1842
Jer ako nije, možemo početi iznova.
05:17
Because if not, we could start
all over again.
all over again.
102
305931
2163
Ali da li je bilo korektno?
Član publike: Apsolutno.
Član publike: Apsolutno.
05:20
But it was really fair?
Audience member 2: Absolutely.
Audience member 2: Absolutely.
103
308094
2545
HG: Starac se okrenuo prema meni
i postavio mi je još jedno pitanje,
i postavio mi je 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
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
I prvo broj na koji sam pomislio bio je...
05:31
Audience member 2: 17.
107
319479
1362
Član publike br. 2: 17.
05:32
HG: Indeed! It was the 17.
108
320841
4077
HG: Tako je! Bio je 17.
05:36
The old man only said one more thing:
109
324918
3059
Starac je samo 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
I tačno sam znao šta 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 dodirnuti špil.
05:50
Everything that you're about to see
is exactly as it looked.
is exactly as it looked.
113
338749
6428
Sve što ćete videti je upravo
kako je izgledalo.
kako je izgledalo.
05:57
He took the deck out of the box.
114
345177
3571
Uzeo 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
Tenzija je rasla.
06:16
(Laughter)
118
364092
2894
(Smeh)
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, umesto da kaže kralj pik,
06:33
something appeared
in the middle of the deck,
in the middle of the deck,
121
381556
4051
nešto se pojavilo u sredini špila,
06:37
that later, I would realize
was actually a secret.
was actually a secret.
122
385607
4755
što bih kasnije shvatio
da je zapravo bila tajna.
da je zapravo 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
Nikada ga više nisam video.
06:49
But he left his notebook
125
397530
2932
Ali je ostavio svesku
06:52
that was there from the beginning.
126
400462
1911
koja je bila tu od početka.
06:55
And when I picked it up,
127
403031
2535
Kada sam je podigao,
06:57
that was the best secret
I've ever experienced.
I've ever experienced.
128
405566
5584
to je bila najbolja tajna koju sam otkrio.
07:04
We are defined by the secrets we keep
129
412230
4171
Definisani smo tajnama koje krijemo
07:08
and by the secrets we share.
130
416401
2151
i tajnama koje delimo.
07:10
And this was his way
of sharing a secret with me.
of sharing a secret with me.
131
418552
4865
Ovo je bio njegov način da podeli
tajnu sa mnom.
tajnu sa mnom.
07:15
(Applause)
132
423417
4653
(Aplauz)
07:24
Crazy shit! Now --

Verujem da se fenomenalne stvari
dešavaju stalno.
dešavaju stalno.
07:36
I really do.
136
444575
1667
Stvarno.
07:38
And the reason why we don't see
them as often,
them as often,
137
446242
3178
I razlog zašto ih ne vidimo često
07:41
it's because we don't
place ourselves in a position
place ourselves in a position
138
449420
2946
je zato što se ne stavljamo u poziciju
07:44
to search for those amazing things.
139
452366
2498
da tražime te predivne stvari.
07:47
But what if we decided to search
for those amazing things,
for those amazing things,
140
455748
4754
Ali šta ako odlučimo da tražimo
te prelepe stvari,

07:52
for those small coincidences
in life that are truly amazing?

Želim da uradite upravo istu stvari
koju ću i ja uraditi.

I have a dollar bill here to explain.

08:32
I want you to take the dollar bill,

Želim da uzmete novčanicu
08:34

155
502069
3530
i presavijete deo sa Vašingtonom
na unutra, ovako.
na unutra, ovako.
08:37
So you get this kind of big square, okay?
156
505599
2980
Da dobijete ovako veliki kvadrat, u redu?
08:40
Now, I want you to take the bill
and fold it like this, lengthwise,

157
508579
3956
Želim da uzmete novčanicu
i presavijete je po dužini,
i presavijete je po dužini,
08:44
so it becomes like a rectangle,
158
512535
1519
da postane pravougaonik,
08:46
and then again --
really fold it, really crease it --
really fold it, really crease it --
159
514054
2519
a onda ponovo - da je skroz
savijete, zgužvate -

08:48
and when you have it,
160
516573
1484
i kada je napravite,
08:50
please fold the bill again
into a little square like this

161
518057
3476
molim vas presavijte novčanicu
još jednom u mali kvadrat ovako

08:53
and let me know when you have it.
162
521533
2328
i javite mi kad napravite.
08:56
Do you have it? Perfect.
163
524708
1228
Jeste li napravili? Sjajno.
08:57
Now, I'm going to approach,
164
525936
2365
Sada ću vam prići,
09:00
and before we start,
165
528301
1499
i pre nego 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 budem siguran da smo
ovo uradili u veoma ozbiljnim uslovima.
ovo uradili u veoma ozbiljnim uslovima.
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
Pre svega želim da budem siguran
da imamo flomaster i spajalicu.
da imamo flomaster i spajalicu.
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
Pre svega, uzmite flomaster
i potpišite se na novčanici.
i potpišite se na novčanici.
09:14
And this is the reason why:
169
542149
1726
A ovo je razlog 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 uraditi gomilu stvari na sceni
09:18
and I don't want you to think,
171
546506
1518
i ne želim da mislite
09:20
oh, while I was distracted by Helder,
172
548024
2455
oh, dok mi je Helder skretao pažnju,
09:22
someone came onstage and swapped the bill.
173
550479
2079
neko je došao na scenu
i zamenio novčanicu.
i zamenio novčanicu.
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
Ne samo to, već želim
da uzmete spajalicu
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 ako niko ne dođe na scenu
i ne zameni novčanicu,
i ne zameni novčanicu,
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 otvorim i zatvorim novčanicu
da otvorim i zatvorim novčanicu
09:37
and see what I don't want to see.
179
565617
1639
i vidim ono što ne želim.
09:39
Is that fair?
180
567280
1161
Da li je to korektno?
Možete li da mi vratite flomaster.
09:40
Now you can give me the marker back.
181
568441
1787
I samo tako, veoma jasno,
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 se postaram
da je ovo u prvom planu
da je ovo u prvom planu
09:47
from the beginning of this experience
184
575507
5186
od početka ovog eksperimenta
09:52
and to make sure that everyone
is going to see it,
is going to see it,
185
580693
2481
i da se postaram da će ga svako videti,
09:55
we're going to actually have
a camera man onstage.
a camera man onstage.
186
583174
3765
i zapravo ćemo imati kamermana na sceni.
09:58
Yes, perfect, so that you can see.
187
586939
2310
Da, sjajno, tako da možete da vidite.
10:01
That's your signature? Yes? Perfect.
188
589249
2290
To je vaš potpis? Da? Sjajno.
Za ovo ćemo sada koristiti špil i čašu.

Now, we're going to use
also the deck and a glass for this.

189
591579

And we're going to put
ourselves in a position

190
599151
2818
Stavićemo se u poziciju
10:13
to search for an amazing coincidence.
191
601969
2884
da tražimo neverovatnu slučajnost.
10:16
Do you mind, can you help me with this?
192
604853
1940
Da li biste mogli da mi pomognete
sa ovime?

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
10:38
But the important part is
after shuffling the cards,
after shuffling the cards,
202
626246
2452
Važan deo je da nakon mešanja karata,
uvek zapamtite da presečete

10:40
always remember
to cut and complete the cards.

Veoma jasno ću skupiti špil karata.
11:02

Samo tako.
11:06
I'm going to search for a coincidence

212
654163

Tražiću slučajnost ispred svih.
11:15
I'm going to try.

1523
Pokušaću.
11:25
I have some cards that maybe,

673490
4199
Imam karte koje možda,
11:29
maybe they don't mean anything.
215
677689
2283
možda ništa ne znače.
11:32
But maybe that's because
we are not paying close attention.
we are not paying close attention.
216
680904
2771
Ali je to možda zato što
ne obraćamo pažnju dovoljno.
ne obraćamo pažnju dovoljno.
11:36
Because maybe, maybe they mean a lot.
217

12:23
What is the second number?
Audience member 4: Nine.

731509
2622
Koji je drugi broj?

So after the seven, we have a nine.
233
734131

Dakle, nakon sedam imamo broj devet.
12:31
And after the nine?

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.
