    We are at the point where even in my small gym, I have to do a quick double take on any new people just to be sure they aren’t Magnus in disguise.

      The year is 2025. Magnus in disguise videos have taken over UA-cam. I visit my gym to go climbing with my brother. He has tried a handful of times and I finally convinced him to join me. As we sign in at the front desk, I notice a new staff member. A small man with glasses and bleach blonde hair. My Magnus senses are tingling... his accent sounds Scandinavian but does not match his tanned skin. "Magnus?!" I shouted. They all looked at me with confusion. It wasn't even him. The paranoia is getting to me.
      "Nevermind.." I say to my brother as we put on our shoes and begin to climb. During the warmup he wears gloves and mixes liquid chalk with powder. Once we get climbing, he improves at a superhuman rate. 'It cannot be' I thought. Then he flashes 8C. It wasn't my brother, it was Magnus.
      Distraught, I called our mother. "Mum, did you know about this? I was expecting my brother and instead I'm with Magnus Midtbo." The gym was loud, I found it difficult to hear her on the phone. Through the noise I detect an unmistakable accent. "Of course I knew son.... it's me." My fears were turning to reality. Magnus had replaced my Mother. Nobody was safe.

    The figure 4 bit had me laughing so hard and the liquid chalk in the chalk bag and the gloves and the jumping and goofy parkour; the way you were trying to convince everybody to do it and actually succeeded with the figure 4. It was hilarious. Just the right character in the right gym, with the right instructor and the right students. This was my favorite pretend beginner video of yours by far. The instructor was a perfect wingman and the specially selected other students had great reactions.
