The way he always lets you think that he did something wrong (like here with james birthday) and then just blows your mind with something even better...
Lior is so amazing!!! It took years before he made this magic or coincidence to show all his past performances and made it a full circle! Bravissimo! 👏😊
To all you skeptics, I was at a show of his recently and he brought me on stage, let me tell you, It's completely real (and even more mind blowing in person), It was months ago and im still shocked of how he did it. If you have the chance you should definitely go to his show.
Bull crap, I was pull on stage at a David Copperfield magic show in Vegas. And I can assure you it's all a load of bull. He had a group of us on stage running though tunnels to end up on the other side of the theatre, and him and his assistant quickly told us to play along. All these Vegas act magic/mentalist acts are all just illusions to trick the brain as fast as possible so you can't come up with an answer of how it was done. He just made you FEEL like it was real, it's all an illusion.
So you're saying EVERYONE was in on it ..... the audience.... Owen and Goldblum .... and the people with the numbers lined up in order .... OK sure ...
There is a weird cut between 8:21 and 8:22 where things don't quite match up (bill note in James' hand, his head position, Lior's movement), he must have replaced the note in James' hand
YES, that is extremely disappointing. A blatantly obvious continuity mismatch in the scene cut transition where there should be 100% continuity to keep it convincing.
Yep, at 8:21 and 8:37, which tells me that they reshot a section and slid it in there. It honestly could have nothing to do with the trick at all, they just wanted to get a better angle. Unfortunately, I don't feel like that's a giveaway because editing is so prevalent on this show (watch any interview on Corden's show and there are sometimes edits for time).
You can tell he wanted to reveal the second 8 after the first one to build up expectation. But he said "second from the right" and that was misunderstood since these guys were facing him. But he covers it up so smooth and so quickly. This was a fun performance. I'm curious to know how it's done.
I caught that too. He also told everyone to pick a number from 1 to 10, he said 1 to 10 multiple times throughout but the last girl had a 0 as part of it?
It’s pre-show work. Him or his team tell you what he’s going to ask and tell you to write it down somewhere without showing. But they have ways of knowing what you wrote before he ever calls you on stage.
SPOILERS BELOW FOR THE ENTIRE ROUTINE!! in chronological order: it's all preshow work. he used a svengali pad with random numbers on one set of pages and 2's only on the other set of pages to force a 2 to owen and jeff, individually. they are just reciting the number 2 they picked earlier, live. but to them, they think they picked the number randomly when they opened up the pad to the forced 2 so they have no problem reciting it the word prediction is just again preshow work with the words he wants forced on audience members. svengali pad with words on them, so people pick what they think is a random word but it's forced. then he has them all write down the last 3 digits of their bills and then does a perfect center tear to sneak a peek at the numbers while he claims to destroy the sliips of paper. the girl he forced "birthday" as her word, he goes and remembers her 3 digits and he has packs of fake $1 bills that you can just print the serial number on the spot to ensure james corden will pick the bill corresponding to the "birthday" girl's. and then he does a word choice force on both owen and jeff preshow. or he can also just sleight of hand take an actual, legit $1 bill from birthday girl preshow and switch it out with his 022 bill. give the 022 bill back to the girl and she's none the wiser. for the audience number card one, same thing as before. had each audience pick a number but it's actually forced by svengali pad preshow, and then told to stand in a certain order. thats why they know where to go immediately when he says switch places. note that he doesnt say pick a new number from the cards..he says pick out the number in your mind. (i.e. the preshow number). now after he INSTRUCTS them to PUT THE REST on the floor...the participants only have one card to hold up...ensuring they have to hold it up and can't think of a new number on the spot. so when suchard says in a subtle semantic twist "what is the chance they all THOUGHT of the same number"...well they never thought up this number. they were told to keep the same number from preshow. not like they would object and disagree aloud at this point, because they're convinced this suchard hack has mentalism powers so they won't even notice or object to him slightly changing the accuracy of his wording the audience here looks to be like 300 people or something so the likelihood of someone having 22 at the end of their bill is 1/100. the 3rd digit, 0 from 022 is irrelevant. if he gets unlucky and doesnt have someone with a 22, he can just not include the "birthday" bill girl at the end and instead just reference owen and jeff's 2 and 2. to someone not in on it, this is sufficiently random and impossible to set up...but now you know! so you too can be a charlatan mentalist!
This kind of stuff always blows my mind!!!!! It’s not like magic where you know there must be an angle you don’t know. A mentalist is just wacko crazy!!!!! Very cool. Boy am I going to miss James when he’s gone. I watch almost every night.
@@EmpyreanLightASMR that's how he's able to trick you. Darren Brown kinda does the same. He'll say something to influence you and by the end you've forgotten that he even did/said that thing in the first place.
@@beckscald3855 the weird thing is I was playing along and wasn't influenced at all :( I thought of "leaf" instead of "day" or any other words. and my number was 6 instead of 2. anyway apparently the whole thing was kinda rigged anyway.
Also that pad of paper he flipped in their face has a 2 on it, you can see it after he puts the pad down so it might have ended on the 2 or it was upside down or something to make it stand out.
@@pabloboswell there's a few ways to force that.. one way I can think of is the ones blowing around are all the same number and he either slight of handed some of those bills with different numbers in at the end or he just read fake numbers to James and knew he wouldn't see them in time.
That is a strange edit and camera angle switch. It's possible that they cut, swapped in the correct dollar bill, and then continued on with the performance. Since show business is known for having uncompromising integrity, this would never happen on a late night talk show made for entertainment. I guess it will remain a mystery.
Yeah magic on the telly is rubbish...it's all staged an edited to make it look continuous . You cannot believe what you see. Everyone is in on it except you.
are we just gonna not talk about the edit at 8:37, where James already has his bill open and smoothed out, but then the very next shot shows it crumpled?
Let's understand what happened here: One chose the word birth. The second chose the word day. TOTALLY RANDOMLY!!! Before the show, the entire audience gave a dollar bill to the production. Everyone remembered the last 3 digits of their bill. A person enters a glass box, a fan is turned on and blows all the bills in the air. The person manages to grab one random bill!!! Bill number 022. Lior Soushard asks whose bill it is. A girl says it's her bill. And what word did she choose?? Birthday!! Is there anyone in the world that can explain this phenomenon scientificlly?? What is going on here, and where are all scientists to suggest a lab experiment to check it once and for all? How the heck is it working?????
I can explain it scientifically. It's a tv show. It's rehearsed, scripted and staged. Mindreading and psychics have been debunked again and again and again. The late James Randy put up a $1m prize in 1964 for ANYONE that could do anything like this for real under strict conditions. It hasn't been claimed in 58 years and James died without ever having a single person prove their ability with thousands applying.. This is theatrics. Magic doesn't exist, the entertainment comes from the performer. I'm not saying it isn't entertaining, just that what your seeing is an illusion.
Why would scientists waste time on a mentalist trick? Lior himself admits he is influencing people in some extend, using sleight hand in other parts of the show...It is not some kind of miracle...It is just a good show and there are tons of explanations that someone can give ( you really think the "dollar" james caught in the box was the one that was used by lior ?)
look at the cut at 8:35. The bill was forced/swapped out somehow. That had the number 22 (plant in audience to say birthday), and James' birthday number in reverse. How he got everyone involved to choose the words/numbers they did is beyond me, unless they are all plants, which is possible but kinda lame.
the power of suggestion in those double snaps just before he asked for their numbers......and then the praise for them complying to the suggestion when he said PERFECT! he established compliant cooperation a master manipulator in such a fun way
I mean, all notes in the cabin had the same number, right? Just reading two other notes from your pocket is not the proof that the other one's in the cabin have different serial numbers ^^ Edit: Oh, and now I see what you mean with the cut - they chose the lazy way of the trick and just replaced James' bank note?
Lior clicks twice at Owen and Jeff before they pick the number 2. Not saying he’s outright telling them what to pick, it’s usually done as more of a subconscious cue.
There's one part of the trick that I can try and think of how it was done - it's the selection of the bill. I think they all had the same serial numbers, (can't believe the entire audience had dollar bills - they were probably given bills), and then this part of the trick was done with old traditional slight of hand when Lior "picked up" the bills that fell from the machine, changed them with his own bills, and used them to "prove" to James that they had different numbers from his bill. All that being said, there are so many other layers to this trick that imo it in no way explains the rest of them, most especially the random woman James chose who selected "birthday".
If you go back to 8:30, you can see James has an unfolded bill while Lior is reading off other serial numbers, then there seems to be a continuity moment as Lior shifts to James' bill and it is screwed up again. My guess is they briefly stopped filming or something and the bill was switched then. However, I can't really explain the number selections later - maybe they weren't 'random', and he was able to influence the '2' onto Owen and Jeff at the start 🤷♂
In fact if I'm being really picky, the shot at 8:36 inside the box shows a clear note sticking up in the middle at the back, and then 2 seconds later, it doesn't seem to be there, but there's a 'tall' note on the far back right instead. Seems suspect to me anyway
@@SG1998h Thanks for the great insight but for that particular part of the trick - I have no doubt that's how it was done. If they did give you guys bills with different numbers which you checked (already suspect that they gave it to you), then somehow the bills that ended up "flying" in the box weren't those bills. The only way to do this is to have all bills with the same number and then as Lior "picks up" a few bills to prove the numbers are different - he switches them.
The only thing I can think of is it is both that, and all the participants were plants. I hope that wasn't it because that would be really boring, and not a trick at all.
@@ntdscherer unfortunately thats how all these "tricks"are. everyone is a plant or if you arent a plant they are manipulating you in a way you dont understand (like the lady above who said they were all given 1 dollar bills but in the show they made it look like everyone pulled the bills out of their pocket.)
LOL, look at Owen Wilson and Jeff Goldblum in the end like staring with a confused look. I'm Israeli and many years ago I sat in a coffee shop in the center of Jerusalem and saw Lior Suchard (I didn't know who he was then) reading the mind of the coffee shop worker 2 meters from where I sat. It was BEFORE he was well known. He walked around Jerusalem and filmed himself reading the minds of people. After I saw him guessing who the worker's first girlfriend was, I was blown away. I'm a skeptic but there was no explanation to what I saw. I approached lior and asked him to please tell me how he did that but he only smiled and said only if I agree that he read my mind in front of the camera, which I declined.
These are usually set-ups and/or manipulation. That being said... I LOVE THEM! It takes a lot of talent to do these types of things and it completely blows my mind. Bravo!
8:36 The bill goes from already being unfolded to being balled up in james' hand while Lior is tossing the bills back in the box... The camera cuts also and shows Lior tossing the bills a second time... Did James grab the wrong bill first? 🤷♂️🤷♂️
I think he may have done that scene at the end, to show to Corden to prove that the bills were actually all different. But they edited and inserted it for the flow of the video
Is someone going to point out how no one seems to be visually impressed? I mean this dude is performing literal magic, I mean like 1 in 100 trillion odds of pulling something like this off naturally and he is doing it and no one seems bothered. Im assuming the editing made the magic and it wasn't so flavorful in person.
I've seen mentalists explain how they're doing this kind of stuff (including him)... There is a pre-show (even when he explains the game), where the mentalist implant to your subconscious what he wants to write/choose... for example when he shows the papers with the number he holds the numbers he wants to you choose for just a little bit longer that you don't even notice, or the words appear somewhere in the studio, just slightly hidden that you don't really know you saw them but they influenced you.... things like that...
I don't believe implanting subconciously can be 100% reliable, with so many people, and magicians (Lior being one) will never risk something like that, unless they have multiple outs, and everything here was completely tidy and perfect
Yeah, I understand you can influence the choice of a number from 1 to 10, but here we are talking about hundreds of thousands of words they could have chosen from, and they picked the exact word they needed to, and it’s not only one person, all the 8 of them chose the right word. Also, what were the chances that in an audience of like 50 people, there was the exact girl who had the only one dollar bill in the whole world with James’s date of birth on. And don’t get me wrong, I love magic, and even if i know there is a trick behind it, thinking that some person thought of such a brilliant trick to amaze people really fascinates me, but this is clearly staged and I think this kinda blows the magic away.
ANOTHER THING I NOTICED❗️ WHEN THE AUDIENCE MEMBERS ARE TOLD TO “ CHANGE PLACES “ at 11:25 to 11:34 …….. YOU CAN SEE HOW EACH FAKE AUDIENCE MEMBER GOES TO A SPECIFIC SPOT ON THE RAIL….. EVEN LEAVING SPACES AVAILABLE FOR EACH PERSON TO GET INTO THEIR SPECIFIC ( prearranged spot). They are acting like they don’t know where they’re going to stand…… but watch it again….. rewind it…… and you will SEE them fall into an EXACT order…….. The ONLY THING LEFT TO FIGURE OUT IS : How he got that dollar bill to line up with CORDONS BIRTHDAY ❓ …….. the ONLY WAY IS: It’s a fake number printed on that bill. It’s probably not illegal to put a fake number on a bill as long as you don’t try to USE IT ❓ Printers today could pull off the green 8 digit number…….. and….. JAMES HAS TO BE IN ON IT BECAUSE THEY HAD TO PRINT HIS BIRTHDAY ON THE BILL AHEAD OF TIME ❗️ AND REMEMBER….. JAMES UN-CRUMBLES THE SAME DAM DOLLAR BILL …. TWICE ‼️ Come on JAMES🤬 And…….. same for JEFF AND OWEN….. picking 2 and 2 consecutively ❓ AND THE WORD “BIRTH”& “DAY”❓❓ ……. They didn’t see the birthday cake next to the stage hand BEHIND THE BACK STAGE CURTAINS❓ Pardon me for my French: BULL SHIT AND MORE BULL SHIT❗️ ………. Nicely done ✅ But nevertheless…. bullshit👀
You are absolutely right about the audience members having been prearranged to position themselves in two different and specific locations... there are several tells. Good catch. The bill, also, was most likely printed with those numbers as you say and then planted into the hands of a participating Cordon.

are we just gonna not talk about the edit at 8:37, where James already has his bill open and smoothed out, but then the very next shot shows it crumpled?
good find. Its easier when every single one of the production is in on it and not just a few.
Perhaps he crumpled it again?
Also, I don’t see any piano in the pic either.
He also planned on the word birthday when that cake was baked hours before the show
He also read the number from the left part of the bill but when you see the number it’s on the right.
I'm more amazed that they found/bought the bill that had James's birthday written backwards in the European way😂😂
Watching with my mouth popping open! Wowie!!
Everyone is looking at him like bewildered children 😄
I love how the advertisement comes in at the count of three 🕒
Love that Owen Wilson was having none of this by simply looking (un)disinterested.
Uninterested, *not* disinterested.
@@renejean2523 most people don't know this!!
He looks shook not annoyed

@@Drnaynay - Thanks, Naomi. No, they don't, and it drives me crazy!
Jeff Goldblum's hand up like what? and mouth agape and Owen Wilson's stunned look... both frozen for like 5 seconds at the end 😂
James is in on the shenanigans 8:36 open bill, 8:38 crumpled bill.
lol. Well of course. That’s how a trick like this is done. Some stooges, some carefully handed out cards, and showmanship.
Good catch
Yep. Makes no sense why aa they cut away for 1 second it would be crumpled.How many others were in on it?
You're such idiots. That's not how it works
... well... it's all a bit pathetic isn't it.
They cut the video at 8:37 and suddenly the open bill becomes folded... This means they switched the bill with a specific bill
Owen didn’t even say “wow”
😀😁😂
I know eh, I was waiting but it never showed 😢

Lior's energy is incredible.
Let's understand what happened here:
One chose the word birth.
The second chose the word day.
TOTALLY RANDOMLY!!!
Before the show, the entire audience gave a dollar bill to the production.
Everyone remembered the last 3 digits of their bill.
A person enters a glass box, a fan is turned on and blows all the bills in the air.
The person manages to grab one random bill!!!
Bill number 022.
Lior Soushard asks whose bill it is.
A girl says it's her bill.
And what word did she choose?? Birthday!!
Is there anyone in the world that can explain this phenomenon scientificlly??
What is going on here, and where are all scientists to suggest a lab experiment to check it once and for all? How the heck is it working?????
Thanks for recapping what we all watched
I can explain it scientifically. It's a tv show. It's rehearsed, scripted and staged. Mindreading and psychics have been debunked again and again and again. The late James Randy put up a $1m prize in 1964 for ANYONE that could do anything like this for real under strict conditions. It hasn't been claimed in 58 years and James died without ever having a single person prove their ability with thousands applying.. This is theatrics. Magic doesn't exist, the entertainment comes from the performer. I'm not saying it isn't entertaining, just that what your seeing is an illusion.
@@breakingaustin saying that they cheated is not "explaining it scientifically" 😂😂😂
Why would scientists waste time on a mentalist trick? Lior himself admits he is influencing people in some extend, using sleight hand in other parts of the show...It is not some kind of miracle...It is just a good show and there are tons of explanations that someone can give ( you really think the "dollar" james caught in the box was the one that was used by lior ?)
look at the cut at 8:35. The bill was forced/swapped out somehow. That had the number 22 (plant in audience to say birthday), and James' birthday number in reverse.
How he got everyone involved to choose the words/numbers they did is beyond me, unless they are all plants, which is possible but kinda lame.
James looked like his brain had left the building. He was completely flummoxed. As was I. Astounding!
@8:35 James bill is flat but at @8:38 his bill is scrunched up again ???? 🤔
Nice catch. Someone else mentioned you can see that the video cuts at 8:37
lol caught in the act
@koalapillars basically all the bills in there have the same numbers
the power of suggestion in those double snaps just before he asked for their numbers......and then the praise for them complying to the suggestion when he said PERFECT! he established compliant cooperation
a master manipulator in such a fun way
That got them to say 2. What about the rest of it?
@@Kukulkan_Tours I got nothing
I was blown away 😅
This man is INSANE!!! 👏👏👏
And I thought of the word…happy, as in happy birthday!
if you’re thinking about clicking away, just watch all the way through, it’s worth it
i love that owen is just left speechless at the end like hes questioning his own existence XD
GOOSE BUMPS! THAT was INTENSE! LOL 🤯🥳✌️
ua-cam.com/video/lBeThWDqZmA/v-deo.html
I can't stop imagining Owen saying "wow" 😂
Lior Suchard is AMAZING!!
Don't lose hope..You never know what tomorrow will bring.!!
Very True. Faith. Believe.
I read this at 1:23, thank for this message ❤
@Totally Random - So, what? It's 10: 44 for me, now.
@glennsrsox - "Faith" is _belief without _*_proof._*
Great effect. The only thing ruining it was the cut at 8:37.
I mean, all notes in the cabin had the same number, right? Just reading two other notes from your pocket is not the proof that the other one's in the cabin have different serial numbers ^^
Edit: Oh, and now I see what you mean with the cut - they chose the lazy way of the trick and just replaced James' bank note?
2 of the best wows in hollywood.
Owens face when James read the number 😂😂
Lior clicks twice at Owen and Jeff before they pick the number 2. Not saying he’s outright telling them what to pick, it’s usually done as more of a subconscious cue.
There's one part of the trick that I can try and think of how it was done - it's the selection of the bill. I think they all had the same serial numbers, (can't believe the entire audience had dollar bills - they were probably given bills), and then this part of the trick was done with old traditional slight of hand when Lior "picked up" the bills that fell from the machine, changed them with his own bills, and used them to "prove" to James that they had different numbers from his bill. All that being said, there are so many other layers to this trick that imo it in no way explains the rest of them, most especially the random woman James chose who selected "birthday".
If you go back to 8:30, you can see James has an unfolded bill while Lior is reading off other serial numbers, then there seems to be a continuity moment as Lior shifts to James' bill and it is screwed up again. My guess is they briefly stopped filming or something and the bill was switched then. However, I can't really explain the number selections later - maybe they weren't 'random', and he was able to influence the '2' onto Owen and Jeff at the start 🤷♂
In fact if I'm being really picky, the shot at 8:36 inside the box shows a clear note sticking up in the middle at the back, and then 2 seconds later, it doesn't seem to be there, but there's a 'tall' note on the far back right instead. Seems suspect to me anyway
@@SG1998h Thanks for the great insight but for that particular part of the trick - I have no doubt that's how it was done. If they did give you guys bills with different numbers which you checked (already suspect that they gave it to you), then somehow the bills that ended up "flying" in the box weren't those bills. The only way to do this is to have all bills with the same number and then as Lior "picks up" a few bills to prove the numbers are different - he switches them.
The only thing I can think of is it is both that, and all the participants were plants. I hope that wasn't it because that would be really boring, and not a trick at all.
@@ntdscherer unfortunately thats how all these "tricks"are. everyone is a plant or if you arent a plant they are manipulating you in a way you dont understand (like the lady above who said they were all given 1 dollar bills but in the show they made it look like everyone pulled the bills out of their pocket.)
I love this guy it always blows my mind!!
David blaine and lior suchard never fail to amaze me, the OGs💪🏻🔥 love this
David Blaine has never amazed me
@@fairamir1thats because your gay
@@fairamir1exactly
Fun fact; they filmed this 1978 times before they got one where all the numbers and words were actually a coincidence .
At minute 8:37 de bill is unfolded, and a second later the bill is folded... WEIRD!
Good catch
Nice
That's really weird
It explains something
I think we all tuned in to see if Owen said, "Woooooow!"
not Jeff's family name is written GoldBUM here lol
Oh, SNAP! Good eye. Somebody was asleep. Ha, ha! 😁🍑
Hey, *"Bro"* - Did you mean "Note," not "not"? 😁
Jeff and Owen hired existential detectives as soon as they got home
Owens just sitting there in the end still holding the number.. He's like What?!?
Owen's more of a "Wowww" guy 😂
One of the greatest act i have ever seen...
Owen wants to crack how that happened SO badly!! He's just like WTF happened here, man??😂🤯🤯
He taps in to something we all have.
“Waffle” is not a short, easy word.
LOL, look at Owen Wilson and Jeff Goldblum in the end like staring with a confused look. I'm Israeli and many years ago I sat in a coffee shop in the center of Jerusalem and saw Lior Suchard (I didn't know who he was then) reading the mind of the coffee shop worker 2 meters from where I sat. It was BEFORE he was well known. He walked around Jerusalem and filmed himself reading the minds of people. After I saw him guessing who the worker's first girlfriend was, I was blown away. I'm a skeptic but there was no explanation to what I saw. I approached lior and asked him to please tell me how he did that but he only smiled and said only if I agree that he read my mind in front of the camera, which I declined.
These are usually set-ups and/or manipulation.
That being said... I LOVE THEM! It takes a lot of talent to do these types of things and it completely blows my mind. Bravo!
That's insane! Great job!
8:36 The bill goes from already being unfolded to being balled up in james' hand while Lior is tossing the bills back in the box... The camera cuts also and shows Lior tossing the bills a second time... Did James grab the wrong bill first? 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Good catch
Thank you, I can sleep tonight
Nice spotting!
I think he may have done that scene at the end, to show to Corden to prove that the bills were actually all different. But they edited and inserted it for the flow of the video
Is someone going to point out how no one seems to be visually impressed? I mean this dude is performing literal magic, I mean like 1 in 100 trillion odds of pulling something like this off naturally and he is doing it and no one seems bothered. Im assuming the editing made the magic and it wasn't so flavorful in person.
Everyone who spoke in the video was in on it. They didn't edit anything. The studio audience saw the same thing you did.
@@Iffy50 nothing was edited? Ask that bill in James hand that shriveled up in shame...
@@Iffy50 check out 8:21 and 8:37 to see two edits.
Jeff would have written something far more existential than just day. I thought his 3 letter word would be God.
Owen was mind blown at the end 😂
I felt like he read my mind when he looked directly to the camera at the beginning 😂
I've seen mentalists explain how they're doing this kind of stuff (including him)... There is a pre-show (even when he explains the game), where the mentalist implant to your subconscious what he wants to write/choose... for example when he shows the papers with the number he holds the numbers he wants to you choose for just a little bit longer that you don't even notice, or the words appear somewhere in the studio, just slightly hidden that you don't really know you saw them but they influenced you.... things like that...
I don't believe implanting subconciously can be 100% reliable, with so many people, and magicians (Lior being one) will never risk something like that, unless they have multiple outs, and everything here was completely tidy and perfect
Yeah, I understand you can influence the choice of a number from 1 to 10, but here we are talking about hundreds of thousands of words they could have chosen from, and they picked the exact word they needed to, and it’s not only one person, all the 8 of them chose the right word. Also, what were the chances that in an audience of like 50 people, there was the exact girl who had the only one dollar bill in the whole world with James’s date of birth on. And don’t get me wrong, I love magic, and even if i know there is a trick behind it, thinking that some person thought of such a brilliant trick to amaze people really fascinates me, but this is clearly staged and I think this kinda blows the magic away.
Weird cut at 8:35 ? Did they re-enact the critical point where he swaps the Dollar bill? TV magic...
ANOTHER THING I NOTICED❗️
WHEN THE AUDIENCE MEMBERS ARE TOLD TO “ CHANGE PLACES “ at 11:25 to 11:34 ……..
YOU CAN SEE HOW EACH FAKE AUDIENCE MEMBER GOES TO A SPECIFIC SPOT ON THE RAIL…..
EVEN LEAVING SPACES AVAILABLE FOR EACH PERSON TO GET INTO THEIR SPECIFIC ( prearranged spot).
They are acting like they don’t know where they’re going to stand…… but watch it again….. rewind it…… and you will SEE them fall into an EXACT order……..
The ONLY THING LEFT TO FIGURE OUT IS :
How he got that dollar bill to line up with CORDONS BIRTHDAY ❓
…….. the ONLY WAY IS:
It’s a fake number printed on that bill.
It’s probably not illegal to put a fake number on a bill as long as you don’t try to USE IT ❓
Printers today could pull off the green 8 digit number…….. and….. JAMES HAS TO BE IN ON IT BECAUSE THEY HAD TO PRINT HIS BIRTHDAY ON THE BILL AHEAD OF TIME ❗️
AND REMEMBER….. JAMES UN-CRUMBLES THE SAME DAM DOLLAR BILL …. TWICE ‼️
Come on JAMES🤬
And…….. same for JEFF AND OWEN….. picking 2 and 2 consecutively ❓
AND THE WORD “BIRTH”&
“DAY”❓❓
……. They didn’t see the birthday cake next to the stage hand BEHIND THE BACK STAGE CURTAINS❓
Pardon me for my French:
BULL SHIT
AND MORE
BULL SHIT❗️
………. Nicely done ✅
But nevertheless…. bullshit👀
You are absolutely right about the audience members having been prearranged to position themselves in two different and specific locations... there are several tells. Good catch. The bill, also, was most likely printed with those numbers as you say and then planted into the hands of a participating Cordon.
@@markfilipas1763
Appreciate you double checking it all….
You know,
I’m a fairly busy guy….
I wonder sometimes, how I get sucked into these “ NOTHING BURGER “ examinations ❓❓❓lol
I think….. starting from this day forward……. I’m gonna be VERY WARY OF THESE TIME WASTING INQUISITIONS ❗️lol
Sadly….. this isn’t my first rodeo picking through a pointless investigation ! 🤷🏿♂️Lol
Hell Mark….. we could have waxed our cars and watered the lawn with that precious time ❓……
Well……
We will know better next time 👀
Have a great summer sir!
God bless🕯️
The words are all nouns.
Ok ok. How'd he do it?
they were all hand chosen in the audience!!
8:36 explains everything
This has got to be the most radical and impossible act I've ever seen!! Spectacular!!!
He honestly is great. His showmanship and presentation...... confidence..... ability to adapt on the fly...... he's a consummate performer.
Well done, sir.
Some mysterious cutting there when cordon looked at the number on the bill. First the bill was flat, then after the cut we see him unfolding it.
