Duh... He's black.... Lol... The hood has a love hate relationship with magic...

I wonder if Questlove would feel more awestruck or betrayed if he was the participant for card mechanic Richard Turner’s performance.

hehe xD

Hang on brb I got a new message

perceptive!

Man, that is CLASSIC! I never saw it that way before! That's why it's always juvenile and he's fake-enjoying everything so much!

Genius level observation. #Respect

Hahaha, wow you're right

hahaha great observation

😂😂😂 so true!

Lmao 😂😂

He probably would’ve filled the box with cheez-its

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@CountDooku0 CHEEZ ITS! CHEEZ ITS! CHEEZ ITS! CHEEZ ITS! WHAT THE F?!

@@RyanMonty bruh that series killed me 🤣🤣

Had tickets and was gonna fly out from SD but covid happened and shut my plans down. Now The Nomad is closed for good...

RENATA CANTORE GROSS ha penn n teller FU

RENATA CANTORE GROSS there not really a lot of magic around is there

That is what he says.

@@jacksonjack7838 Dan White everybody

Do rubber crabs even exist????

Well they weren't feeling what we saw. They reached into a different compartment with something different. For jimmy it was a small spoon, for Quest it was probably like a rubber toy animal, like a turtle or a coiled snake or something.

@@TheDilligan Exactly!! I’m not totally impressed bye magicians who uses fake boxes

@@flyingisland7583 Me either but what about the phone in the yarn?

@@FoxyDrew He took his phone without him noticing and replaced it with a dummy phone before the trick started and formed the yarn around it. The phone quest thought he had wasn't really his phone the whole time. It's honestly a common trick for magicians to do, I wasn't impressed by any of this at all.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 omg

THANK YOU! A like minded individual. So many rubes.

yeah if you look closely at 2:07 you can see the invisible spirit of Nigrita exploding into the Golden Realm of Existence and beyond the Silken Veil of Illusion via his back pocket.

Nigga what?

You don’t have any content on your channel. But I wish you did!

Yeah it's a bit weird since Quest is consistently very skeptical during tricks & this is the only part of the trick that isn't obvious...

Chris Ramsay exactly what I thought !

But he never showed it's back side at the end

but what do the cards have to do with anything, they were inside the case so theres no way jimmy felt them

Chris Ramsay oh ya

Chris Ramsay : your videos are better.

Because there was actually a chocolate bar in the box, and jimmy was imagining being hungry, it wasn't that difficult.

Yeah he performed Well, mentalism is hard to do with such an active audience like that. The trick was fun still.

No shit Sherlock

He didnt expect anything, do you not understand what the trick is?

@bullsi20 Let me guess, you think mind reading is real. lmao get over yourself.

I agree that’s the only common sense explanation, but It seems like a huge amount of risk and work. I suppose you can know in advance what kind of phone and case questlove has, but what if he tries to use it after the switch but before the illusion? So the switch probably happened just before they went on air, most likely by a trusted band member or producer. On the other hand, he unlocked “his” phone, which adds another layer of complexity. I don’t know…?

The other part that’s interesting, I’m not sure if Jimmy Fallon cut in too soon, but what happened to the photo that Quest took? Seems like that should’ve been part of the act?

Y ain’t it go as plan the fone was in the yarn

It all went exactly as he planned.

He actually looks at both of the original items. Watch closely. First he looks to the yarn, then he looks to the ladle. I think it’s reasonable and normal for someone who is confused to look at other things that were involved in the confusion.

you nailed it. They always do this crap on Fallon and Jimmy has awful tells that he knows what is coming and Quest had an obvious tell for that one. These kind of tricks are BS

why

I thought that was a bit quick as well.

CrazyWedz i

Its not that, its just that the trick is extremely easy to do. Its not complicated, no slight of hand or anything. Just needs some prior set up and some good acting.

Brandon Buccella Magicians do tricks, they are all show. This being a show, he worked out a trick with Jimmy and Quest before hand. I don't see the problem. The people were entertained, that's the key. Honestly, I enjoy watching to see if I can figure out how its done but most video magic is done this way and its boring. That doesn't mean other can't enjoy it and I see no real need to point it out to people. If they didn't figure it out, that means they enjoyed it.

Jimmy needs to put on a dress, an assistant's dress.

yes, but this one was painfully simple and not at all misleading. I love magic shows and think that when done cleverly, can be mesmerizing. This was just not one of those tricks. Theres no wow factor, its "oh, they just pre wrapped his phone and gave him a fake one" theres no misdirection and relies purely on willingness and acting ability. I have seen better magic acts on AGT (America's Got Talent)

Same here :)

Lol same, then i felt dumb (back to reality)

At this point there's nothing Dana white can do to be more likeable. He's just a straight up ass.

His name? Do you remember?

Way too fast. In on the trick. Only way it's done...

Or, he knew what kind of phone and case Quest had, he wrapped a similar one up in yarn. Then he switches them out before he hands it to Quest? That was my initial thought

100%

That’s right.

I think Quest was in on it. It takes him less than a second to produce a phone when the magician signals for one.

Noconz0727 MC yes it can be either way

TazTalksYouListen had his hand in his pocket and grabs his phone

noL1Fe - Look at the amount of time between when Dan actually makes the cell phone gesture and when Questlove begins to grab for his phone. It is a wee bit too fast for something that should have been that unexpected.

Ryan Hatton ... B is not risky at all if the phone is lifted at the proper time, such as right before he went out for the night’s show. An identical phone, maybe even with an identical start screen pic, would then be replaced into his pocket. But sometimes people ARE in on it. Ratings. This is entertainment.

wow, very good!

If its a trap floor, what happens to it when he removes the cover for the audience?

Keith Segovia maybe it hinges up against the cover? I haven’t gone back to see if we always see both sides of the cover.

I immediately thought the same that's why he made noises to distract also whilst he was doing it

yea that part isn't hard to figure out. They only reach half way down, so its obviously a trick box that has the objects they feel in the top part, and the objects revealed in the bottom. You can see him when he lifts the front cover to reveal them he has his hand/thumb on the back side panel pushing in the hidden shelf/object as hes lifting the front cover. First on the right side (you looking) and then with the yarn, on the left side (sliding up his hand). He's pushing in the hidden side compartments at that point. The part with the phone. The ONLY way that could be done was if Quest was in the trick, OR he was told ahead of time he would need to have his phone for the trick. Otherwise, the trick wouldn't work if Quest didn't have his phone on him. What if quest didn't have a phone on him, the trick would have failed right there when he ASKED for the phone. The phone is thin enough to be pushed into the hidden side panels where the other spoon/rubber spider were hid. So he was either in on the trick and had "his" phone handy, or he was told he would need to give his phone for the trick and was ready with his phone. Otherwise, tap Quest on the shoulder, give the "phone" hand signal, Quest doesn't have a phone on him.. fail trick.

Can you imagine working with Jimmy Fallon every day?

And more fun

yeah i would say there was two phones...one already in the yarn and one that went in the box...no amount of magic in the world is gonna teleport a phone inside a ball of yarn...

That's true. And it wasn't there during the spoon part 🤔

It is just a white cover for the chocolate bar!

Max that still doesn’t explain how quests phone got into it though?

It’s TV magic. Different from real street magic. Most of this stuff is generally set up for the camera because the show is all for the live audience and the viewers, not the subjects being used for the trick. The phone was already in the yarn before hand and the one he gave was just a fake - he never showed the screen, only the back!

Max Is the bar a distractor while he slips off the platform 2 put it & the phone in floor's box?

luvvinallmusik 57 no idea, but that's just one thing I noticed about that trick

Max The bar not being in w the ladle is ok. We never see him put any items in, not even the phone. He just took one from Quest. Quest doesn't verify the phone's his when he gives it 2 the guy. Not that you'd care but it's my 1st time figuring out a magic trick.

he did not. Just two phones, the rest is all act. There is literally no trick here. Grab a phone, wrap into that thing before the show, go to Questlove say :"hey brotha, can you say that this is your phone?" aaannnd that's it ! you are welcome sir.

This clearly does look like a setup indeed. My only question is where is his real phone. I looked at his hands very carefully, and I didn't catch any movement. The walls of the container are too narrow for a slit such as quests phone. Any ideas?

Extra Awesome I think the phone would fit into the walls, the case doesn't look very bulky. There's probably an opening facing the guy on the bottom of the box and he's sliding the phone into the compartment with his left thumb. Then he slides the box to Jimmy to make sure the phone is in there. Then he tips the box forward to dump out the chocolate, but he's really making the phone fall to the front of the box so it doesn't fall out when he lifts it up. As for the chocolate, you can see the box it was under when he shows the yarn.

No way. I believe Questlove's reactions are genuine. It's much more realistic to think that White pickpocketed Questlove's phone and replaced it with a similar looking phone. He wraps up the real phone in the yarn and asks for the fake phone during the set. David Blane has done similar tricks before where he leaves a card or part of a card in someone's pocket before the set and then makes it look like he somehow magically got it there.

He flipped down the interior walls of the box to form a false bottom concealing what actually rested at the bottoms and holding a tiny object that they actually felt. This is clear because their hands don’t reach far enough to touch the actual bottom, and you can see and hear him manipulate the box’s walls each time he flips them down and back up. Very clever. As for the phone: The phone in the yarn was there the entire time, and, if Quest wasn’t in on the trick, another phone was made to look like his and swapped into his pocket or placed in the yarn beforehand. The magician could have checked with Quest beforehand to make sure he’d bring his phone on stage. He could have done this just before or some time before the bit under the guise of some preparation, especially seeing as the whole bit wouldn’t have worked at all if quest didn’t have his phone on him. He could have quickly, easily, and discretely unlocked the phone via FaceID and angling it toward quest or letting quest unlock it accidentally just by holding it out in front of himself before handing it over to “check that it’ll work” for the bit. He then could have taken screenshot of the home screen just by squeezing the sides and sent it to himself or an accomplice in under a few seconds without quest seeing or thinking anything of it. He’d also then get a chance to try to identify an approximate lookalike for the case. He could then create a duplicate that could fool Quest by displaying that screenshot full screen on another phone (either just as an image or via a custom app to make it behave more like a lock screen. When he places the phone in the box, he was careful not to show the audience the screen of the phone. For one thing, if he’d taken a screenshot for the clone, over a minute could pass between when he takes the phone and when Quest looks at it and the time could appear wrong. You can then see/hear him hiding swapping the phone for the candy bar hidden in the false wall of the box. When he reveals Quest’s phone at the end, he’s careful not to show the audience or quest the case, and has him just look at the lock screen to confirm that it’s his phone (again, which could just be a screenshot taken from before). If he wanted to be able to do all this on the fly, he could have loaded the clone phone in the yarn with an app that just idles, waits to receive a screenshot, then displays the sent screenshot full screen and stays otherwise unresponsive. If he wanted to be quick, all he had to do was get ahold of Quest’s phone for a few seconds, and check out the color/size of the case, angle it toward Quest’s face when he hands it to him, and send himself a screenshot in under 5 seconds while Quest is distracted. He could have several phones running an app with different cases that will automatically receive and display the screenshot (or if he has more time he just does this manually with one and fits a lookalike case on it), then puts the lookalike in the yarn and makes sure to hand it to Quest for confirmation without showing the back of the case.

Yo , what do u perform

That is a good pun. Excellent job there.

James Wise Magic well sure as fuck didn’t

First, it isn't "literally" everyone's comment, because some people have other hypotheses. 2nd: If someone was in on it, then why would originality be relevant? If someone was in on it, and I came up with something "original," then I'd be wrong. Unless you know how it's done, or can prove no one is in on it, then you can't rule it out. This is basic logic.

way too many people also say "i know how he did it.." we're all so proud of you guys
