I was really impressed with his performance. How in the heck did he do that? :shock:
Were you also subject to the annoying 2 minute and 41 second commercial prior to being able to view the magic trick? Sometimes I think that the forced ads are just too much. I wouldn't buy that electrical thing if it were the last item on earth. :evil:
Agree, no clue how that was done! Very, very good!! Thanks for sharing!

After some short period of time (10 or 15 seconds?)something appeared at the lower right side that allowed the viewer to skip the rest of the ad. It is common for many of the youtube.com ads.
Very impressive video of a magic trick. I have no idea how he did the last trick. There has to be something about that "glass" table, but it was well hidden. The other ones were not too difficult to figure out.
FYI: This trick is done with careful editing. At one point everyone freezes, the recording is stopped, the glass is removed & replaced with another piece with a hole in it. Then after he removes his arm it is stopped again & the solid original pane is replaced. Everyone in the video is in on it. All the surprised expressions are just for the viewer. Very well done, but not really slight of hand or "magic", which can be performed live.
Wow, unbelievable illusion , thanks very much for that

Lauren...you might consider using "AdBlocker Plus" to eliminate YouTube ads...works great for me. It's free.
I'm amazed...never can figure these slight of hand tricks, and this one was stunning! Thanks for sharing it!
Kept my attention. Including that beautiful little thing the green dress. :( :mrgreen:
Just watch his left hand . It is pressed tightly onto the glass and concealing a hole in the glass and he slides the glass around to the position of his right hand . After the " Trick" he slides it back. Simple really

Exactly, but that's not all of it. The film opens showing the glass intact. The first (cut) splice is done during the close up of the hand when the camera angle changes and when he slaps the table, the act performed, and then the full sheet of glass is replaced. Then the full table is shown without the hand covering the hole, because the glass with the hole has been removed.
This trick has been done before the same way, with the magician climbing through a large window.
It's all in the editing, and all the people in the audience are part of the act. A great trick to watch, but you will never see it in person unless you are part of the show.
Watch it again with this in mind & it will become clear.
