Uncover The Truth Behind World's Most Famous Magic Tricks | David Blaine | Penn and Teller

a great magician is the one who relies not just on the tricks itself but also the other artistic elements which makes a seemingly impossible feat look real and that's what makes their magic acts a marvelous viewing experience so be it the magician dynamo lighting up an entire river or Criss Angel's terrifying steamroller trick hello and welcome back and today we'll uncover the secrets behind world's most famous magic tricks so let's get started the first trick move the ring magic act of the famous Penn & Teller show a magician named Adrian Cara Tala performed a magical ring trick in which he first borrows a ring from a beautiful lady and calls her on stage as a volunteer he then puts her ring inside a silk cloth and tells her to hold it with her right hand thereafter he tells her to let go of the ring as he instantly catches the silk cloth the ring disappears into thin air and it's nowhere to be seen finally he brings the ladder on center stage climbs a few steps and then shows her that her ring has magically teleported onto his shoelaces so how did he move the ring all the way down onto his shoelaces well here's the secret after Adrian borrows the ring from the lady and makes his way up onto the stage he already has a loop of shoelace wrapped through the ring the loop is gimmicked and the ends of the loop are magnetic so when he's holding the ring in his hand at this moment he has the loop of a shoelace hidden in his fingers now when he puts the ring into the silk cloth the ring actually goes into a secret pocket in one of the corners inside the cloth also that corners folded inwards to the center of the cloth during the time when the lady holds the ring in her hand so she's in fact holding it through a few extra layers of silk adrián then plucks the silk away and it appears to everyone that the ring has vanished but actually it's in the bottom corner of the silk still hidden inside a little pocket now if you observe carefully the camera cuts to the camera at the back of the giant screen yes this is the moment where he makes the actual ring transfer here you can see him holding the silk in his right hand by the top corner at knee level this awkward position also brings the bottom corner of the silk very close to the shoe level now during this moment the shoelace with the ring attached slides out of the silk pocket and sticks onto a small powerful magnet at the top of his shoe also if you listen to what he says at this moment people usually appear now is your turn he seems to be rushing through his words maybe because the ring is now fully exposed on his shoe and the audience can see it so he wants to get to the end of the trick finally the latter prop is used just to make everyone present they are wondering about the ring here some of you think how does the lace thread through the ring when she takes it out while the lace is only the top loop part of a fake lace that sticks to the top of the shoe that's why he unties it so carefully so as to not pull the fake bow off the rest of the shoe while the lady gets back her favorite ring the second trick the torn and restore card illusion David Blaine the magician known for his extreme acts once performed an amazing card trick where he tells a lady to choose any random card from the deck and then sign on it he then tells her to place her signed card back into the middle of the deck the signed card magically jumps to the top of the deck in the next part of the trick he takes her signed card from the top and visibly rips off and scrunches that card into pieces of small squares with a little rubbing the chosen signed card is then found restored on the top of the deck so how did he perform this amazing card trick well here's how he did it in the first part where the lady randomly selects the two of clubs card here he actually forced that card onto the lady using a technique called under spread card force so after David spreads the cards he brings his desired two of clubs from the bottom of the deck and pulls it underneath the spread at the exact position where the lady picks the card and then she proceeds to sign on that forced card for the second part of the trick how did he tear and restore her signed card back well there was also a duplicate two of clubs card used for this part of the trick and David already knew her name before the start so he had already written her name initials on that duplicate card and it was placed on top of the deck now he holds the deck in his left hand and riffles them and tells the lady to say stop wherever she wishes when done he pretends to cut off half of the deck and holds it deep into his left hand and during this moment he secretly removes the topmost duplicate signed card using his right hand and moves it away quickly thus keeping that one card concealed away from the ladies he then offers her the rest of the deck and tells her to put her signed force card into the supposed cut which is in fact the topmost position David then quickly brings her right hand back drops the to placate card on top and riffles it back into the deck this creates the illusion that he is replaced half the deck on top of the chosen card when in reality the duplicate signed card is now on top of the chosen signed card thereafter he performs a double lift and shows her that her chosen signed card has jumped to the top of the deck while they talk he turns both cards over again and this time around only takes off the topmost card which is the duplicate card and proceeds to rip it off into pieces now while rubbing the pieces onto the top of the deck he gives the deck to the lady folds the pieces tighter and makes the magically disappear here he only pretends to transfer the pieces into his left hand and actually keeps it in his right hand using which he then disposes the torn pieces into his pocket finally the torn pieces vanish as the signed card is magically restored back at the top of the deck the third trick lighting up the river illusion dynamo the magician known to perform some incredible looking acts performed one such wonderful magic trick on the holy Ganges River in India during this magical act dynamo ignites a flowing lamp in the middle of the river using just his magical gestures thereafter he lights up the entire river with hundreds of lamps which amazes everyone around so how did he do it well before revealing the secret if you haven't subscribed to our channel yet make sure to subscribe and hit the bell icon so that you get instant notifications of our new video uploads now let's quickly get to the secret out of all the lamps which dynamo lights up only the first one is real and all the other lamps are electric ones yes since the first lamp he lights up was in close view of the audience so here the lighting was done using the chemical properties of sodium and water and the lamp had sodium present inside it since sodium is an alkali metal and when you mix it up with water you get a highly reactive exothermic reaction which turns into fire and lights up the lab dynamo then places the first lamp into the river thereafter the lamps which lit up one by one were all electric lamps already set up before the trick had started his assistants controlled the lamps using a remote device and were lit up on dynamos gestures which made this amazing looking trick possible the fourth trick smoke from a banana trick there's no one like Mario Lopez when it comes to bringing humor in any magic act known for his amazing cigarette tricks here's what he did in this act he takes out a cigarette and then consumes half of it thereafter he takes out a lighter lights up the banana and what do we see he magically produces smoke from his mouth by lighting up a banana how's that possible well here's the secret behind the smoke considering a scenario in which some of you would think that there's a cigarette hidden inside the banana and it's that hidden cigarette which produces the smoke but that's not the case here and such a setup seems a bit too far-fetched so the banana here is just a prop in the act and the smoke is the result of something else now there are various ways to produce smoke from your mouth one such way is using candy cigarettes there are some other ways like vaping inhaling and exhaling and using the right technique of props anyone can create a smoke like vapor or dust in the air that will fool others into thinking the person's actually smoking but here the above props aren't used and instead the cigarette which Mario eats here is an edible frosty cigarette the frost is made with the use of liquid nitrogen which is capable of producing a lot of smoke so after he lights up the banana the smoke which comes out of its mouth is all because of that frosty cigarette so finally one of the most amazing magic tricks on our list the terrifying steam roller trick if it's not terrifying then it's not a Chris angel trick such as Chris's talent that anyone watching his magic acts are in awe of his performance in this famous trick performed on the street you can see Chris walking across a pile of broken glass he then shockingly holds a plank on those broken glass just to test it and lies down on it finally a huge steam roller runs over him but to everyone's surprise chris is all fine and manages to survive the powerful Packt so how did he perform this scary stunt well here's the secret first he shows the real ones for examination but the rest of the pieces on which he walks and lies are fake pieces also the blood which you see from his body at the end is not real and is only a red colored liquid shown to dramatize the moment so let's now focus on the steamroller part if you notice there are blankets hanging from both sides of the steamroller which makes it difficult to see what's going on and conceals the secret part to figure out how the trick is done some of you think either the rollers of the vehicle are made up of flexible material or there's something hidden underneath the carpet well they are actual rollers and the carpet you see forms the key and is present there to hide what lies beneath it yes there is a hole in the ground under the carpet and that's where Chris's legs and body go when the steamroller runs over it also the hole is filled with some kind of foam which enables Chris to lie on it now when the roller goes over him the impact causes his body to adjust accordingly with the foam as soon as some pressure is applied since the roller is larger than the hole the ground sustains the heavy machine when the roller goes back his legs are gently pushed upwards by the foam as he comes back to his initial position so the audience cannot see there was a secret hole finally all Chris had to do is scream like he's actually getting crushed to make the trick appear more dramatic so guys hope you got the secrets behind the world's most famous magic tricks which one of the five tricks did you
