Looks staged
[QUOTE=Tetsmega;52632289]Looks staged[/QUOTE]
I'm in the same boat, isn't it a magicians rule to orient the trick towards the viewer? The cube part had me wondering why he covered the cube from the camera and not the guy watching
as the old internet adage goes:
Fake and gay
Yeah, while some of them like the pen one can be simple prestidigitation, the really ridiculous ones (like the Rubix cube and the mints) look edited, as if they had him freeze, swapped out the object, and then spliced the footage together.
Also, for the first one, [sp]the cup is attached to the bottle by a string, you can tell because he subtly jerks the cup away as he hands it to the guy watching, disconnecting it and letting him drink freely[/sp]. And I'm pretty sure the cell phone one was [sp]100% staged, using a prop phone with a slit in the middle[/sp].
Still really well edited and put together though, especially for something that looks like it was shot on a cell phone. The ones that can be replicated live would probably go over huge at parties.
I was promised drunk people
Where are the drunks?

It's an excuse for their bad acting.
The only magic here is Adobe After Effects
How do people still believe some of this shit?
Dude puts his hand up to cover the rubix cube from the [i]camera[/i] while the dude on the other side of it has full view of it while it changes.
Some of these could very well be real, and a lot of them are. But... come on.
He's not actually magic.
This video comes to mind
