Magic review!
What's going on, guys?
Welcome back.
I find my skelf.
(laughing)
I find myself scouring
the internet sometimes
looking for good magic, bad magic,
interviews with reptilian overlords.
Regardless of what the
YouTube algorithm brings me,
sometimes I like to go back to Reddit.
You guys aren't familiar with Reddit?
I don't know who wouldn't
be familiar with Reddit.
Actually, I don't really think anyone's
actually familiar with Reddit, okay?
Let's just put that out there.
No one truly understands
Reddit, that's my belief.
But it's there, and it has things,
and these things have names,
and this name is magic.
Today we're gonna be looking at
the magic subreddit on Reddit,
and reacting to some of
the most popular posts,
finding some of the most
cringeworthy comments,
and also, no, that's
about it, that's about it.
(clapping)
This is the Magic subreddit.
There are 178 people online currently.
Look at this video.
"This gimmick often gets
great reactions from laymen.
"What do you think about it?"
Let's go.
Whoa.
Wait, what?
I mean, I'm kinda really fooled.
That change in the
beginning, look at this.
I don't even know what
the hell's happening.
Look at this.
Zoom, that looks like actual witchcraft.
This guy, "I'm pretty much a layman.
"Fooled me."
"Same here."
Same here.
"I think it's a great effect,
"but the way you perform it here
"makes it look like a trick.
"It's not very natural and convincing.
"Maybe speed it up and try maybe to be
"dramatic with some of the moves.
"But really, much respect
for the effect here."
(gagging)
Please don't ever comment like that again.
Like, magicians are so fickle and snarky.
"I think the release of
your ring and middle finger
"are slightly too drastic,
"and bring attention to the release.
"Also, I'm only guessing
that's how it works,
"so if that's not
correct, then ignore me."
"Dai Vernon would say lose the death grip
"on the dangling deck that
isn't supposed to be there yet.
"#DougHenningLives."
(laughing)
What's this, street/drunk
magician, 134 upvotes.
He's already my favorite magician.
(laughing)
(shouting)
Oh, that's a nice touch.
That was great.
(humming)
How can we sort this by,
of all time, oh here we go.
"Pick a card."
"Dad!"
"To my son I leave the Queen of Hearts."
(laughing)
The reveal is in his will!
Whoa!
(laughing)
Get wrecked!
(laughing)
Oh, this little girl!
"Bank robbers: where's the safe?
"Teller.
"Bank robber: I said where's the safe?
"Teller.
"Bank robber: what the F?
"Penn: he always does this."
"No good teller would show
up to work without a penn."
When you practice too much.
(laughing)
What?
This guy, "A pen production idea."
Let's see it.
Oh, that's really clean.
Ooh, that's really, what?
Magicians are the best
at letting people know
that they know how it's done.
That is the bane of my
existence on comments.
It's like, I know how
it's done, great job.
"Looks great!
"I like how Shin Lim
does this with a coin.
"I've been practicing
that," you know what I mean?
"Excellent and innovative
application of a known principle."
"Yeah, this took me a
long time to figure out.
"Very cool, clean handling."
Yeah, we get it, you know how it's done.
All right, what's this here?
(laughing)
This is funny, "Magicians: ACR, Triumph,
"Ace Assembly, Travelers, ACAAN, Sandwich.
"normal people: card trick."
That's pretty accurate.
"I just really like that the
Ambitious Card is at the top."
That's a great comment, up vote.
"Are you sexually active?"
"A magician never reveals his secrets."
"No."
(laughing)
"How did you do that?
"Can someone link me to a tutorial?"
"My dog hates magic," let's go.
Aw, that was the best
reaction I've ever seen.
"Magicians are nothing
without their assistant."
Oh, he put it in the drink!
Oh, that's good, man, these guys are good!
I've seen these guys before.
Look at this, this is smart, look.
He just hands her the pen, so sneaky,
and look, this guy's like, boop,
right in the drink.
That is.
"Palm, simulation!
"Steal, misdirection!
"Load, misdirection, simulation!
"Looks simple, doesn't it?"
That's a Penn and Teller reference!
Oh, this, I saw this the other day,
probably my favorite thing I've ever seen.
Look at this, look.
Get the magic wand, ding!
Rabbit.
(gasping)
Gone!
(clapping)
The hands clapping makes it the best.
The snap change paradox.
Oh, that's funny.
That's actually funny.
Yeah, this is definitely like
a magician fooler, for sure.
Future pro magician, yeah, let's see it.
(laughing)
Oh, yep!
"She produced a bird," love.
What's going on here?
Oh my god, so satisfying.
Why is that so satisfying?
That is like, ugh, that's
the best thing we've seen.
That's really good.
Six way change, let's go.
One, two, three, four.
Okay, I'm just gonna
keep changing the cards.
All right, take 138, let's see it.
Okay.
Whoa!
Damn, this is also the guy that did
the water bending, I think.
I don't know if it is.
This magic Reddit, Reddit magic is lit.
"One of the best snap changes
I've seen, very subtle."
Actually not a snap change.
This is a snap change, there it is.
Good handling, man.
Very good, magic_janik, dude,
I like your style.
Your sleight of hand is impressive.
"Every time I see street magic."
"You sure you're not gonna be spotted?"
"Absolutely, my cover makes me invisible."
"Excuse me, do you wanna
see a magic trick?"
"Now no one's gonna make
eye contact with me."
(laughing)
Oh, that's funny.
(laughing)
That's actually great.
The first part, I'm like,
what, is this edited?
I gotta try that out.
"Truly bamboozled."
Oh, no, this is the dog challenge.
No thanks.
"When you're first starting out
"and you do the invisible deck
"in public for the first time."
(laughing)
"King of club, so, the
king of clubs, you're sure?
"That's the one you're thinking of,
"the king of clubs?
"Okay, king of clubs."
"Portal."
Is this portal by Dan and Dave?
Yes it is, one of my favorite little
sleight of hand impromptu magic tricks.
It's really nice.
Very well done, good sir.
"Looks really good, but one
of the problems I've had
"with Dan and Dave style of magic
"is the lack of consideration
given to real spectators.
"This is a great example of that use.
"While it's beautiful to watch,
"spectators have a hard
time appreciating the magic
"because very little time is devoted to
"letting them remember.
"My solution to their work is
to slow down the show phase,
"so that the reveal at the
end is more meaningful.
"When people are," please stop.
The kid's just trying to show you
what he's been practicing.
There is no spectator.
He's performing for the camera.
Let him live his best life!
Stop being a fickle magic troll.
"Dentist shows off magic," let's go.
Oh, I love D'lites.
D'lites is the most
magical thing for kids.
It's insane.
Look at this.
That is amazing.
Good for this dentis, man, using magic,
incorporating it into
something that he loves,
making people happy.
Ugh, right in the feels!
That concludes this
magic meme Reddit review.
All right, guys, well,
if you enjoyed this,
smash that button.
I'm gonna do more of these
if you guys are down,
if you wanna see some more reviewing.
Regardless, this was a lot of fun,
a little bit of a change of
pace from my normal videos,
which I get a kick out of.
I've missed looking at magic like this,
through the lens of the internet.
Anyways, thanks for watching.
We'll see you on the next video.
Mr. Beast collab coming up, by the way.
Stay tuned for that.
You're not gonna wanna miss
it, it's pretty insane.
Puts AGT to shame, just saying.
Little bit of a spoiler.
Peace out, guys, bye.
