Brain Magic – The Common Sense Illusion | Brain Games

there’s an old saying what goes up must
come down we all know that it’s common
knowledge but is there common sense
always that reliable well we’re about to
find out what’s up guys welcome to the
magical circle alright so uh so your
common sense is telling you that
something’s about to happen yes you’re
not sure where we didn’t tell you
anything
clap rearrange so I have to hear I’m a
half dollar she please examine it you
can examine the handkerchief and what
you’d examine the magician okay we just
don’t know so here’s what you do so I
look at a place that half dollar right
in the palm of my hand like this
I’d like you to place the handkerchief
on top of the coin just like so and make
sure you can see my skin there so I want
you to think I’m putting on my sleeve
now obviously your common sense is
telling you that that coin is definitely
underneath my hand it’s not because we
just put a cloth over it that I did
anything tricky correct let’s take it a
step further
can you reach underneath the cloth and
feel in my hand make sure the coin is
still there yes miss definitely still a
higher dude yes watch this watch
carefully here’s where I’m going to do I
just shake it like this
tight tight tight the coin should
disappear now your common sense are
telling you that there’s no way we’re
just as fair as possible can you slowly
pull off that clock is actually vanished
completely so I’d like to do it again
except this time again super super fair
here we go common sense tells you that
this hand is cleanly empty you can place
the scarf over it miss great can you
double-check reach underneath make sure
great
can you reach underneath yes sir reach
underneath empty wash carefully I just
shake it like this it’s done would you
mind sir the coin actual whose right
side that’s crazy that’s crazy now your
common sense is telling you that there’s
something probably else that’s going on
I’m gonna break one of the rules of
magic I’m actually gonna teach you guys
how to do this you guys want to learn
this you can use it your friends and
families okay you only need three things
you need a cloth you need a coin and you
need I like you
yes all right no you actually need a
secret helper this is my friend Jonathan
is my secret helper at the very
beginning so here’s what actually is
what you see you get a secret helper
he’s allowing the last one and the first
one to touch it right so all you got to
do is at first I like to do it myself
I cover the cloth I get everybody to
reach underneath to make sure it’s still
there so miss please go ahead
it’s still that now when Jonathan
reaches underneath he’s gonna say is it
still there he’s gonna say yes and I
come away talking so the focus is here
but really he took that coin oh you’re
mad so so again and then when the coin
actually disappears just like this he’s
like bro you stay with me all day you’d
betrayed me all right so so what I have
at the cloth like this again a Jonathan
has it in his hand oh we passed around
like this it’s not there it’s not there
it’s not there and when it’s Jonathan’s
turn he says is it there he says it’s
not there so I get to do my which does
nothing but common sense
your common sense tells you this is
where the magic moment happens and then
when you pull it away the coin actually
comes back and everybody freaks out but
obviously to make it disappear for real
it would obviously uh look just like
that
that’s common that’s common sense for
