Any magicians in the house?

This is REEEEEALLY bugging me. How did he do it?

Questions I'm wondering about it:

Was the guy inside doing something while the magician took off his shoes?

Why the paper on the window?

1. First. The paper is on the glass so you can't see how the trick is done.

I used to be a member of a magician's organization, and I think I know how he did it. :evilgrin:

2. Do you think at least one of those people watching was an assistant?

Like the guy who went in there with him?

I noticed he went in there twice. Once by himself for just a second and then again with the magician.

The paper wouldn't have prevented that guy from seeing how the trick was done from inside the room.

3. I think the shop owner was. The two people who held the paper to the

window. That video was not a one cut video.

4. That's the problem with doing tricks on film or t.v.

the very nature of those mediums is illusionistic and easily manipulated so the credibility is lacking.

Got to experience it live, imo.
