The recipient was initially convinced his friend 'Pete' was behind the call but realised it was real when he went on FaceTime.
Sean then asked the guy on the phone to pick a random card, which amazingly was the same one the audience member chose, to rapturous applause.
"It's a brand new trick, I just thought it would be something to try to do and it's gone down really well," he explained to the Chronicle & Echo.
