Richard Turner, self-styled card mechanic, can count and manipulate cards with unbelievable precision by feel alone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwFIJyWKs1

  I'm not sure "self-styled" is quite right here, he is a card mechanic, that's the term for someone who cheats at card games by manipulating cards, and he demonstrates exactly those techniques.

    Ah, thanks. I didn't know that was a common term.

      To illustrate just how common it is, the first deck hold most card magicians learn is called the "Mechanic's Grip" [0] [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanic%27s_grip https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanic%27s_grip
