Magic Trick Explained…
DO NOT WATCH THIS VIDEO if you want to maintain the mystery of the trick shown in the previous post. The video below does not specifically address the previous trick, but it does demystify a quite similar trick. Pretty cool, but definitely disappointing to those of us who want to believe in magic.

The secret is almost always disappointing. The is the wonderous thing about magic. Suspending belief and believing in the impossible for that moment is a wonderful thing for the spectator and the magician. I’m an amateur magician and there is nothing like sharing that same feeling you get when you see that illusion for the first time.
Well put, Brandon.
