A Card Performs An Amazing Escape From A Padlock

Escape tricks are always a fascination for many people. The video is of a card trick that utilizes 'Escape' as a pertinent method to entertain an audience.
A group of cards, each with a hole punched in them, are threaded onto a genuine padlock. One of the middle cards is raised above the others
before the padlock is closed. An audience member can retain the key. The free card is now pushed down to become flush with the others, and when inspected, is seen to be also threaded on the locked padlock. All cards now require the key before they can be released.
