CallMeKP YourLeader To me the best part is that he had this ready when some random customer came in that day looking for a 12 foot instead of a 6 foot.
CallMeKP YourLeader. Y do u think it's fake? Is it because it's on tv or just mainly trutv or r u just giving a reason to make yourself look good or r u jealous
Austin Thurston lol im not sure if you are tring to insult me, or what...but mainly because it is obvious that the magic is fake and set up i did amateur magic back in high school plus its on trutv it's been known for awhile now that they script their shows
First of all I was sent there by my employer who was in on it. They asked me to run errands and make a few returns. The first return was to the hardware store to return extension cords. I was on the clock being paid by my employer and was unaware of what was happening. Bit then again I owe you and no one else an explanation. When I left the store I was approached by the cameras and crew and informed that I was apart of a new TV how. It was on TV, my friends and family love it.....and I don't know you.....
That was visibly awesome. She had no words to express what she saw but a million things in her brain asking how, resulting in her face reaction. Great.
How long did he have to wait until a women came up with 2 6 foot cords but wanting a 12 foot? That seems like a pretty specific problem. I bet you could stand at a hardware store like that for days and not have anyone come to you with that problem.
+Johnny Threefour Not wanting to think this was staged, a possible way to do this is that her boss, who sent her to change the twoo cords was an accomplice to the show, because yeah, it would be too specific. Maybe one of people of the show crew went to the office or store where this chick works and asked the boss/owner if he could help them trick one of their workers assigning them this task. Because if your boss asks you to do something like this on your working hours you would do it without question.
I love how he always turns something that makes absolutely no sense if you read it in text and make it sound like it's the most normal obvious piece of information that everyone should and does already know. Lmao
She's so lovely - Hope that little bit of magic during the day brought a smile - for having to go out and do everyday stuff. Would be amazing to see a magician work on a helpdesk for a day to see their versatility in all the gags they can pull.
I haven't decided if Michael's way of avoiding questions is a honed skill or psychopathic trait. I honestly don't know if I'm impressed or afraid at his ease.
Nobody: Terminator: “ "I'm a cybernetic organism. Living tissue over a metal endoskeleton." This guy:”It’s interchangeable. It’s a universal interchangeable cord.”
Somebody (like her boss, or something, who knew beforehand that the trick was going to be played on her) probably asked to go to the store and get a 12-foot instead of 2 of 6
The woman in the video is elsewhere in the comments. She explained that basically her boss was in on it and sent her to return the 2 extension cords for a longer one. So it was planned, but she wasn't in on it.
Her employer was in on it and asked her to return the cables at that store. It's also a very "easy" trick, you can see when he drops the ends of the two cables on the ground is when he switches it for a 12ft cable, they put the camera on her prob when he does the actual switch, but you can see that after he lifts the supposed ends off the ground at around 0:47 he never takes his hand off of one specific spot, which is where the 12ft and the tiny cable are already entangled and he has to hold it there.
I've seen this trick done... with rope and not cords, but it could easily be done with other such materials. So to me, it is plausible that this is real.
+Jonah Kirk So he had to wait in the store until someone came up to the counter with TWO six foot extension cords and ask for one double that length? C'mon man... You can't be that gullible. I love this show, but it's clearly staged af.
A manager, coworker, relative stages it. The show is notified and Michael plans when to arrive. Sometimes it's easy enough to just sit there and present the trick to anyone who walks in the door, like when he asks someone to do something for him or just has the thing already, but other times people are sent there by people they know who have helped stage it. Those people who enter don't have to already know what's going on. They're just confused why they were sent there by their relative/coworker/Manager. They accept it and go there, but don't presume there's much up. Hey, if your friend/manager/ whatever insisted you to go in and have someone look at the cords as they didn't have time and you accepted it would you have expected anything suspicious? Sure, not everyone insists, so perhaps other persuasion is needed. What would it be for you?
+Sottosorpa > "Staged" and "fake" are two separate things. If this girl's boss sent her in to return these items, and she has no idea she's being filmed, then it's a legit hidden-camera trick. Candid Camera used to set up employees this exact way 50 years ago.
About 20+ years ago, a magician similar to Michael Carbonaro was doing a stage show at a local prison. One of the prisoners came onto the stage for a magic act and had a similar reaction as this women. He was dumbfounded for a few seconds, then he shouted in fear *"Oh hell no. I ain't into this voodoo black magic sh*t!"* and hurriedly walked out.
I love how he says 'it's a universal interchangeable cord like that explains everything 😁
Only if you find the pressure points.
I've sadly gotten a few of his bs explanation mentors for real when I needed actual help 🤣 love Michael he's a treat can't wait to see his live show
😂😂😂🎉
I love how he explains things away as if they're so obvious. That fucks with their minds even more!
Michael is really good at giving explanations that make no sense
Indeed 😆
He's a master at misdirection. As a magician should be.
He should be a politician!!!! Wait! a politician on my side!
That's because he was talking when he answered the question, that's how things are explained now. It's the carbanaro effect I think.
Yeah it's intercahagble universal pressure points
to me the best part isnt the trick but how he talks around people when they ask about it
CallMeKP YourLeader To me the best part is that he had this ready when some random customer came in that day looking for a 12 foot instead of a 6 foot.
Tim-J.Swan we know its fake its trutv everything is staged that's not the point
Ikr, lol....that really is the best part, I thought it was just me!!
CallMeKP YourLeader. Y do u think it's fake? Is it because it's on tv or just mainly trutv or r u just giving a reason to make yourself look good or r u jealous
Austin Thurston lol im not sure if you are tring to insult me, or what...but mainly because it is obvious that the magic is fake and set up i did amateur magic back in high school
plus its on trutv it's been known for awhile now that they script their shows
I am the woman in the video. Was NOT scripted
I've never heard of this guy, but it was a pretty cool trick. Buy the way you are a very beautiful lady.

Should be top comment :)
Brandy brown Is that really u?

Verty
"How did you do that?"
Michael: explains why she needs 12 feet chord that she already wanted.. 😂
He always answers the how with a why.😂
They have pressure points 'cause they're universal
They are ALSO interchangeable!!!
What does that even mean!? 😂
2:26 "Sometimes you need to move the coffee pot a little closer to the toaster, and you just need the _little_ extra"
Had me rollin
Love her reaction, & her little confused smirk-half smile❤, the magic tricks he does is incredible & ridiculous 😂
i need to go to bed
Noel Boldwin same I've fallen into the deep hole of the carbonaro effecf
Yup 2am over here.
Noel Boldwin same
I need to go to another country😄😁✌️
Addicted to the Carbonaro effect, eh? Lol
Now I can move the coffee pot closer to the toaster.
'cause some people just need that little extra.
Don't do that. I did that and they mated and the house exploded. Just Google "house exploded" and you'll see. That's my house.
MayonR
Can I move the toaster closer to my bath tub?
Can't believe i've never heard of this guy before. He's incredible
Your ass is grass and i'm a lawnmower
"You just had two cords"
"This is 12 feet now."
LMAO
I'm surprised he didn't say that he still does and hold up the little one.
That was visibly awesome. She had no words to express what she saw but a million things in her brain asking how, resulting in her face reaction. Great.
Every answer he gives is a brilliant dodge of the question's real meaning.
1:26 her reaction is so adorable
+Va K She has adorable cute face.
+bluntgent U must be into thick babes :)
+Va K He was talking about her face, and it is adorable.
yup
That's the universal mind fart look
His BS reminds me of how I was answering science exam questions back in high school if I didn’t study for the exam ...
"It's a universal interchangeable cord"
Right. The lady thought there are some tricks involved. That's just a universal interchangeable cord.
How long did he have to wait until a women came up with 2 6 foot cords but wanting a 12 foot? That seems like a pretty specific problem. I bet you could stand at a hardware store like that for days and not have anyone come to you with that problem.
+Johnny Threefour i was wondering this myself
Those are Home Depot brand extension cords too, and they are at an Ace.
+Johnny Threefour She says her boss sent her there, so maybe her boss is on it.
+Johnny Threefour He must be friends with the boss. A lot of the people who appear on his show are temps.
+Johnny Threefour Not wanting to think this was staged, a possible way to do this is that her boss, who sent her to change the twoo cords was an accomplice to the show, because yeah, it would be too specific.

His way of manipulation is amazing both visual manipulation and also their questions manipulating his own words but making them believable.
I love how he always turns something that makes absolutely no sense if you read it in text and make it sound like it's the most normal obvious piece of information that everyone should and does already know. Lmao
🎉😂🎉😂
I love how he always explains what just happened with intelligent sounding nonsensexDD
She's so lovely - Hope that little bit of magic during the day brought a smile -
for having to go out and do everyday stuff. Would be amazing to see a magician work on a helpdesk for a day to see their versatility in all the gags they can pull.
Love how he double talks his answers to their questions.
“They don’t have pressure points because their universal” 😂 what does that even mean! His explanations for things are so hilarious.
I haven't decided if Michael's way of avoiding questions is a honed skill or psychopathic trait. I honestly don't know if I'm impressed or afraid at his ease.
Man no matter what that phone was staying in her hand 😂
I like it when Michael start explaining incomprehensible nonsense making sense where there isn’t.
Bruh the explanations he comes up with 😂😂😂😂
Michael is simply amazing !!!
“They’re interchangeable”
I love how he makes up an explanation.
I love how explains things, " ya because theyr interchangeable ".
He is the master of keeping a straight face.
I love he just goes into explaining something completely adjacent to wtf just happened lol.
Michael what you do is indescribable. Awesome lotta laughs.
It's funny how he keeps on explaining like anyone can just easily do it. 😂😂😂😂
Love the politician answers he always gives when they ask him questions about what just happen 😂
So funny to see the exact moment when her mind was blown. "I'm not crazy!"
Nobody:
Terminator: “ "I'm a cybernetic organism. Living tissue over a metal endoskeleton."
This guy:”It’s interchangeable. It’s a universal interchangeable cord.”
..."and you need that little extra" === hahahaha
His explanations are hilarious 😂😂
haa, he got her thinking real hard
I like how he adds useless information to the conversation
If I had a dollar for everytime I wanted the coffee pot a little closer to the toaster 😂
@Eliseo Palestina creep
"This is 12 feet now." 😂
Michael Carbonaro is literally me. I make up completely *nonsense* to my friends all the time and they believe me bc it's too confusing 😂
People can believe just about anything. I love it.
this is insane!!! we want more
This lady is sweeeeeet!
This woman is holding onto her phone like it was glued to her face.
I like the way he distracts her with the short cord
I did it at home. Works perfectly fine. Thank you for the instructions
We love you Michael may you live forever!
“You don’t have to lock it in because they have pressure points on because they’re universal” 😂
mans doing real life magic casually
It's funny when people's minds are so blown that they accept the impossible as reality instead of calling BS
I do want my coffee maker closer to the toaster. Thanks again.
Hmmmmmm. These are the bits where I'm like damn he made a prop for when someone comes in to return two extension cords
+Card Index Did he ?
Somebody (like her boss, or something, who knew beforehand that the trick was going to be played on her) probably asked to go to the store and get a 12-foot instead of 2 of 6
Exactly my point
Its fake.
The woman in the video is elsewhere in the comments. She explained that basically her boss was in on it and sent her to return the 2 extension cords for a longer one. So it was planned, but she wasn't in on it.
"When you need a little extra" that was epic!!
Tape measure on the hip is a nice touch lol
These videos are addictive
He got her to stop looking at her phone.
Her employer was in on it and asked her to return the cables at that store. It's also a very "easy" trick, you can see when he drops the ends of the two cables on the ground is when he switches it for a 12ft cable, they put the camera on her prob when he does the actual switch, but you can see that after he lifts the supposed ends off the ground at around 0:47 he never takes his hand off of one specific spot, which is where the 12ft and the tiny cable are already entangled and he has to hold it there.
her expression are so cute ❤️
"Then you can use this for whatever you need it for..."
Now I understand what it sounds like to talk tech to an old person
1:10 her brain broke
Her mind was blown, but not enough blown to put the damn phone down.
Her: How did you bend and the break the laws of physics?
Him: Yea, 6 + 6 = 12.
This is THE FIRST carbonaro trick i have figured out😂👌
man he is so good...
Lol he pulls it while your looking right at him lol hes good
HDX is Home Depot’s brand and she’s Returning it to ace?🤔
if i could do magic like this, after my tricks i would straight up just wink at people, tell them im the devil, and leave.
her confusion is so damn cute!!
Those were Home Depot extension cords (HDX) clearly written on the packaging and they were at a completely different store lmfao
That would've freaked me out. But on a side note I could really use that little cord for my computer.
“...and you just need that liiiitle extra.”
This makes my frontal cortex tingle for some reason
CeeLo got mind blown hahaha 🤯🤣
she's sooo confused😂😂
Well its interchangeable... Ah of course 😂
I would have responded just like her...lol
She so cute btw
I laughed and enjoyed every "victim" of the magic trick but come on man, I WAS STILL CONFUSED
People can't put their phones down for a second. lol
That was beautiful.
6 years later and I too need to go to bed....
yes, it's universal and it is interchangeable too and it's universal also
This trick was so mind blowing it turned this woman into a man named cee lo green and started singing "I think I'm crazy"
He like so serious
How'd you do that? They're interchangeable. How'd you do that? They're interchangeable. How'd you do that? Lol
She was a good actor 👍
I'm hooked on these videos, should have discovered them earlier
I've seen this trick done... with rope and not cords, but it could easily be done with other such materials. So to me, it is plausible that this is real.
he switched out the cord as he handed her the ends. it's quite a simple trick compared to some of his better ones.
Doesn't matter how simple it is to do. It matters how well one can be fooled by it.
+Jonah Kirk
So he had to wait in the store until someone came up to the counter with TWO six foot extension cords and ask for one double that length? C'mon man... You can't be that gullible. I love this show, but it's clearly staged af.

We need this guy at best buy.Would solve so many problems.
Ha! In just a couple weeks, we're going to air segments that Michael filmed at a Best Buy.
The camera cut effect
They're interchangeable.
