a true magician has the ability to distract you from the truth and bring out a sense of wonder in doing so he convinces the world that he is in fact carrying with him a secret so be it the famous floating table trick or dynamos amazing football magic hello and welcome back and today we're gonna figure out the secrets behind the world's top 10 famous magic tricks so let's get started at number 10 of the football magic Brazilians surely know how to play football but when dynamo the famous magician is in town even the best footballers are dumbfounded by his amazing skills after the player passes the ball to dynamo here you can see him magically levitating the ball in air and then completes his move while everyone seems to be in total disbelief so how did he magically levitate the ball in the air well here's the secret the ball which he lifts up in the air is another identical gimmick ball which he had prepared before the trick when the dribbler passes the ball to dynamo now just before this moment the camera cuts away yes during that time the exchange of the ball took place with the person behind him also notice how this person hides the original ball and once he realizes that he's on camera Pete runs away from the view coming to the gimmick ball it has strings attached to it obviously it's impossible to attach the string straight up as this would interfere with his head or chest so the strings are attached this way held on to that ball now dynamo stretches the strings to lift the ball up here he pulls the strings outwards as the ball starts levitating upwards finally when he snaps the string an impulsive force acts on the ball and the string simultaneously breaks which makes it seem as if the ball was indeed levitating in midair at number nine the card through window trick this incredible magic trick has been performed by magicians all over the world here you can see David Blaine asking a spectator to pick a card without him seeing the face of it and then asks him to shuffle the card back into the deck David then smashes the deck at a glass window and what do we see the chosen card is seen to be sticking to the glass window what's even more amazing is that the card is not on the outside but on the inside of the window so how did he do it well right from the start the trick lies and making sure the spectators are facing away from the window also David's assistant is carefully positioned and hidden behind the window and has an identical pack of cards with him now once the spectator shows the chosen card which faces the window the assistant secretly peeks into it and takes out a duplicate card from his deck he then quickly applies the magician's wax to the duplicate card which made the card to stick inside of the glass so now you must have got it when David smashes the deck onto the window his assistant quickly sticks the card on the inside and runs away thus revealing the chosen card to amaze everyone around at number eight the floating table trick Dirk Lysander is one such magician who surely knows how to float things up in the air on the famous Penn & Teller show you can see him floating the table in midair with such ease he even lights up a candle in one of his moves finally he covers the table with another cloth and then magically vanishes it all together so how did he do it well the secret lies on the table itself the table is made out of a very light material and it's quite easy to lift up there's a thin metallic wire or something along his arm that he uses to make it float he hides that wire inside the cloth and uses it most of the time to float the weightless table in the air in one of the moves the candle which is magnetic just barely lifts the table at one point when he lets go of the wire but how did the table vanish at the end the table is also collapsible and here you can see him activating the mechanism where the springs pull it together under the cloth to make this amazing illusion possible add number 7 coin through your arm trick now this one's an easy trick here the magician picks up a quarter and rubs it on his arm all of a sudden the coin disappears and goes right into his elbow in another version of the trick the magician places the coin near the arm and magically inserts it under the skin so how did he do it well in the first version the trick lies in the sleight of hand skills during the moment when he picks up the coin and holds it with his right hand fingers here he didn't actually transfer the coin into his right hand all he did was to pull the coin back with his thumb into his left hand so the coin never left his hand which he then instantly hides it behind the shoulders now he rubs it with his empty hand to make the illusion possible in another version of the trick he never inserts the coin under the skin it was already there and prepared using a latex material used in Hollywood movies for makeup he then only had to place another coin above to conceal the prepared skin now using an adhesive applied on his palm he makes the above coin stick onto it as he finally reveals the terrifying illusion of inserting a coin under the arm at number 6 the disappearing train illusion David Copperfield one of the greatest illusionists of our times performed a trick in which he first tells his assistants to encircle the train car by holding each other's hands the assistants then cover the car with a huge cloth and hide it from everyone thereafter he makes the train car to float up in the air and then pulls up the cloth cover as it falls onto the ground but to everyone's shock the train car magically vanishes into thin air 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 the trick behind this famous illusion lies in the fact that the car is pulled out of the cloth and is rolled off on the railways behind few light towers also the railways are built in midair and concealed from the light towers but then how does the cloth remain hanging up there you'd ask well the huge cloth was placed onto a large metal frame which is the same shape as the roof of the car the metal frame was then held in the air supported by strong cables the frame was designed to fit exactly on sat the top of the car and this frame was the one covered with a cloth while the car moves under it finally the cloth has pulled onto the ground while the frame remains hidden away from the lights to make this famous illusion possible at number five the melting cart illusion in this trick as the name suggests the card is seen to visibly melt through another playing card the magician performs this trick up close to the spectator to make it even more convincing so how did he do it well to make a card melt through another one the magician uses a gimmick card and here is how the gimmick is designed he first cuts off the bottom part of an extra card and applies a glue on its face near the edge of that bottom part he then lines up that piece of card onto another card to make it look as if it's a single card now this forms the gimmick for this trick the magician then starts his trick by placing three cards with the gimmick card placed on the right the blue card is the one which he's going to melt he then picks up the gimmick card and places another card on top of it now the real magic happens he picks up the blue card and slides it between the flap opening of the gimmick card to the spectator it seems as if the blue card is placed at the bottom of the two red cards now to create the melting illusion he moves the blue card in a circular motion finally he slides the card up to release it from the gimmick and makes this amazing effect possible at number four the magic broom trick ever wondered how Harry Potter flies using the magic broom sounds fictional isn't it well not so much for the famous digital magician named Zach king who can be seen flying on his magic broomstick thereby replicating the amazing Harry Potter scene so how did he manage to do it well if you notice there isn't any harness attached so he is not hanging also he's flying just above the surface of the road which makes us think is there an involvement of a roller skateboard yes that's correct here you can see how he flies on his magic broomstick which he himself reveals at the end of this clip he holds a mirror on his left side with a fake leg and goes around on the skateboard from the front it seems as if he's actually flying in air at number 3 shadow box illusion this trick is one of the most deceptive yet captivating illusions the magician rolls out a mysterious box closing the front side of the box is then rotated completely around proving that it is indeed empty the light staff is that inserted into the top of the box thus lighting up its interior suddenly the audience can clearly see shadows appearing twisting and turning from within until it finally takes on a human shape the human form then bursts through the front door made of paper as the magician's assistant is revealed to the amazement of the audience so how did he perform this illusion well here's the secret the assistant has already hidden inside the box when the magician brings it out on stage now there's a secret door made out of paper at the back of the box through which she slips out from the view every time he opens up a side now once he puts the light staff in place and closes all sides of the box the assistant slips in from the backside the hand movements of the assistants are perfectly synchronized with the magician using the musical cues finally an assistant comes out of the box to amaze everyone around at number two the levitation vanish trick Criss Angel the famous magician once performed a trick in the deserts where he levitates a long way up in the air takes out a white cloth covers himself up and then suddenly disappears into thin air so how did he disappear above the desert floor in broad daylight well let's see the answer he never disappeared in air he was simply concealed to make the illusion look real here's how he did it to levitate Criss up in the air he was hoisted up using the invisible cables from a crane now the disappearing part was performed using a green-screen technique when Chris was hoisted up in the air behind the white cloth a green screen effect was implemented to conceal his presence this was done using a video editing software where the green screen was removed and that part was filled up with a blank footage of the background where Chris was missing now when Chris drops off the cloth the effect creates the amazing vanishing illusion so finally we'll end our list with an easy one the famous smoke from fingers trick many famous magicians have performed this trick where they magically appear smoke by rubbing their fingers so how do they do it are their fingers really smoking in this trick well for the fact smoke is just fine particulates of carbon that are visible in the air in this trick the particulates are phosphorus the material that matchbox striker strips are made from the striker strips are made from red phosphorus which after burning rearranges its molecules into white phosphorus so the magician places this unstable white phosphorus in between his fingers now when he rubs his fingers the white phosphorus is oxidized by the oxygen in the air into phosphorus oxide and appears as white smoke to create this amazing effect so guys hope you got the secrets behind some of the world's most famous magic tricks which 1 out of the 10 tricks did you like the most
