This Belgian 15-year-old creates amazing optical illusions using his "cardistry" skills which he has been practising for seven months, five hours a day.

Ivan, who goes by @Ivan.magical on Instagram, showcases his incredible manipulation skills which give the illusion that the cards are moving when in reality they aren't.

Ivan told Newsflare: "I started seven months ago practising these tricks. When I was younger I was doing a lot of magic tricks with cards. Then one day while I was watching a magic trick video I saw in my YouTube recommendations, a 'cardistry' video.

"I was so fascinated by the video that I started to learn 'cardistry' wherever I could. I was reading old books, and I was also looking for tutorials all over the internet and that's how I started to learn.

"I suffer from hyperhidrosis, which means I have sweaty hands all the time, and this allows me to stick the cards on my fingers for some tricks."
