Sleight of Hand in SLOW MOTION - Is the hand quicker than the eye?! (Bad idea)

- Today I'm going to put Sleight of Hand magic to the ultimate test! I shot a few sleight of hand card tricks in 120 frames per second to see if, despite my skill, you could see how the card trick was done. Probably a terrible idea..

Your sleight of hand in slow motion looks like my Sleight of hand in normal speed 😅😅😅
Keep up Chris 💪💪
Hahahahaha me too
I just started playing with cards, and I feel the same. BUT! With enough practice, we all can do it x4 times quicker, just like Mr.Ramsay! Lets check back in !remindme 356Days to see progress!
same
So damn true...!
my thoughts exactly
*Shows it to us in .25, We watch his .25 in .25, outsmarted
Don't think you quite understand maths
5 times slower is .2x Mr Smarty Pants
Same here bro
I feel like everyone who replied to this didnt understand what this is actually saying lol
Or times two speed
You are one of the most open minded person I've ever seen. Please don't ever lose that. That's priceless 👍🏻💪🏻💪🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Upvote
yeah it was pretty good. pretty cool guy
It's as if he's super high and drunk, and I'm even higher and drunker than he is! XD
You are genuinely my idol. You've inspired me and have genuinely changed my life. Because of you and your videos I now perform magic and I'm able to take care of and provide for my son and I. I genuinely cant thank you enough Chris
Great story!! hope everything is going your way dude!!
😅😅😅😅
Let's see some videos
@@benjaminradigan9423 aye thank yall forreal. Ive posted random videos here and there but im officially launching everything next week. Yall should definitely check me out. All the support would be greatly appreciated
Come on BJ, are you being genuine?
The slow-mo just highlights how crazy difficult those moves are! makes me love them even more
Man, even slowed down I couldn't figure this shit out on most of them. Tour sleight of hand is awesome, sir. If anything, this video makes me appreciate the practice and effort you must have put in to develop your skill. You're a great sport and I am now subscribed. Keep it up, sir.
this video is a great tutorial on how to do these tricks, just gotta watch closer, and you will see how to do them all... then you gotta practice a butt load to get even a little bit close to how good chris is at them... the high frame rate is why it's so visible...
Wow ur stupid
@@XxOffTonexX well yes, however my comment was presuming a basic understanding of some slight techniques.... a total noob would obviously be missing that....
Fardeen Mahmood who? And why would you write this to anyone?
Exactly. :3
If you see every replay with .25 while he's doing .25 .... Now that is my slight of hand
I wanted to keep it real...so I played this video at double speed...but when watching .25 speed at double speed it was still only half of reality.
Yeh I did 0:44 in .25 speed and its fake he edited in.
@@pgamingbs no. You can see him move th far card to the back of his hand
@@jorgensenmj I did the same thing while running backwards down an 'up' escalator and I ended up back in 1976 listening to jethro tull records in my bedroom...
5 times slower is .2x Mr Dumbgon warrior
This is actually amazing
Regardless of whether people "know" how it's done, this is amazing stuff. It's like a movie. You know it's not real but your all about getting entertained.
I admire you for doing this. Without slowmo they all look perfect magic tricks
I always find the comments about 'Slow it down you'll see it's fishy!' to be weird; we all know that it's sleight of hand, not actual 'magic'. The amazing thing is how well it's done and how much work is put into making it imperceptible.
Cory Bennett true true
Perfectly said
Agreed I watch for the pleasure of seeing a display of sleight of hand not to say I know it's a trick !
getting turned on by that proper use of the semicolon, not gonna lie
Everyone knows it's not actual magic. Slowing it down is all about seeing where the sleight of hand occurred and how it was done. That's where the fun is. Unlike with big stage performances, sleight of hand tricks are just as amazing even after finding out how the trick was done.
Those tricks are still hard. Good work
Hard ASF!!!!
Agreed. Knowing how its done and being able to do it are two *totally* different things.
Bad idea? Naw - the art of magic is the experience and blowing away the expectation of the viewer. While I'm not even a noob when it comes to ever being able to pull off any of those moves was utterly blown away by the intro. Watching you break some of the moves down just makes me appreciate your art even more!
It’s not about being “magic” it’s about the skill it takes to do this stuff. Even in slow motion, your precision and speed is just crazy cool!
Yes please show more of these. It helps us to perfect our cardestry
That was a great idea tbh
Freeking smooth flashes, lol. Well done Chris
Chris, videos like these are why you will ALWAYS have an audience and dedicated fans.
Most people know that it isn’t actually magic, they know it’s done by sleight of hand. What is so enthralling is when it’s done so damn well and so quickly that it looks like it’s magic. We appreciate the skill of it all, and this video proves that! When you can slow your tricks down this much and they can still fool the eye, that speaks to how talented you truly are. In short, kick ass idea. Love this channel.
I love how critical you are of your art.
A true magician.
Slowed down, debunked or not, I’m still blown away by this
Great respect on making this video!!
Conclusion:
Yes slight of hand is quicker than eye
8:22
Me: "This is fascinating!"
Chris: "This is torture"
Have watched a few of your videos lately and finally subscribed on this one. I am not a magician, but love watching close-up magic. I have long maintained that watching a great magician is never really about the tricks, it's about the skill with which he or she performs them. Like watching a Jordan play basketball. We know how he's doing what he's doing, the marvel is that he put in all the time and practice to be able to do it better than we ever could. Love the videos, love your love for the culture of magic, and look forward to seeing more great content from you.
Your slowed down video just made me respect the actual talent and hard work it takes to do what you guys do.
Slight of hand 101: Have mad hand tattoos to distract the audiences attention.
[Slowed down video]: "Oh there it is, right there"
Me: What!? Where!?
This was awesome !! Sleight of hand is juggling, not magic. It is an amazing skill and a beautiful art form. If someone looks at it and sees something mystical then I am a little saddened by it. We know, that you are manipulating the cards so there is nothing wrong with knowing how you do it. Being able to slow it down to see the true juggling is far more impressive. I took forever learning to juggle like you took forever to do the sleights that you do. It’s not like some simple card trick that you can pick up in a few minutes. Chris, being able to slow it down yourself, helps you improve your craft. And being able to pat yourself on your back for a well done trick is rewarding in itself.
Thank you for your skills they are amazing!!
If anything it makes it more impressive that the human hand can be this dexterous.
Beyond learning a few coin tricks here and there and briefly studying the theory of magic, I'm hardly a performer 😁 but I felt I should question your perspective.
i was reading the Harlan Tarbell course some time ago and, from what I remember, it really emphasized on the patter and how magic must be kept as something of wonder, at least in the eyes of the spectator.
Don't you think that if more people start seeing sleight of hand as just manual dexterity, the "magic" of it will eventually disappear? (no pun intended)
@@nattybynature1262 Everyone logically knows that it is sleight of hand already, but our body and emotions work differently. They don't think, they merely perceive. That's where the magic effect comes from.
You know Chris I performed long long ago and you can show people slow mo over and over again, but at the end of the day anyone can do magic but not everyone is an Entertainer like you. Keep up the great work, and keep Magic alive.
Intro moves:
1.DPS
2.-a trick where the right hand card is produced and hidden every time the left hand comes which also has a single card and does not put in pocket.-(lol)
3.advanced snap change(I think)
4.card split using the snap change
5.Bertram change
6.C3 change
7.shape shifter change
8. Shake change
Some of them I have not included cause I don’t know and I have only done sleight of hand for 2 months so sorry if I got any of them wrong
What if I slow it down to .25 on this video. Wowowow
Big 🧠
i did that, it helps a lot. you can see even the ones he thought were good
i did it
That clip shift is so freaky in super duper slow motion.
You're sick!!!! 👏👏👏
Knowing how it's done doesn't make it easier to do. Keep up the good work.
Right. It still takes practice. Its like trying to follow a Bob Ross painting tutorial. Its probably not going to look great the first time you do it, even with knowing how its done.
This video shows your honesty and your insanity!
So this video made me become a new subscriber.
Brother, I watched David Blain do things with cards and knew it was about serious slight of hand, and doing magic card tricks for my friends, they were amazed. But I sucked. I was sloppy. I figured some things out and snap! You showed me how it was done. I snapped a card change and palmed and changed it back. Barely pulled it off. But, it’s about skill. Practice. Card control. Thank you for showing how it’s done. My friends think I’m magic. My hands are fast. I practiced for hours. Still, I’m no where near your skill. I fuck up a lot. But when I blow their minds it’s so cool. You are the best my friend, thank you. Aloha from Hawaii.
I've been watching your videos for a couple weeks now. This video epitomizes your teaching methods and personality. You uploaded this to scrutinize your own performance and shared with the rest of the world. My respect for you as a person, and your teaching methods just increased to whole another level. Thank you!
Seeing how this is done makes it even more impressive for me.
Wish everyone was like you👍
I can also make cards vanish in a video, the fact that you do it with your muscles and not Adobe After Effects is much more impressive.
0:37 That king turning into the 7 that was sandwiched between the two other cards was legit af.
I need to know what that trick is called do you know? Even the slowed down version in 5:46 looks impossible
@@plonker2819 a bit late but it's the c3 change. Quite practical when you get it right
@@valovanonym You're not at all I coincidentally was checking my comment replies lol, thanks
@@plonker2819 nice!
I'm an old guy who's played with this stuff on and off my whole life and never seriously. I'm doing it again because I want to be magical for my grandkids so this time round (it's been years) I've got UA-cam as a learning platform. The ability to see what's going on is in my mind at least a very positive thing. I film myself and slow down the motion so I can see where and how I can improve. As a result of having great teachers (like you BTW, CR) and the ability to evaluate not only my own proficiency but that of those that do the slights properly, I've improved 500% over my former ability in a very short time.
You're a great teacher BTW, I've seen MANY and I think you're brave to do a video like this and it shows great integrity as well.
Found your channel a couple weeks ago and you are pretty amazing man.
I like this video especially because you point out your own flaws and say that you can work to make them better.
That proves to me you're pretty good human being.
Thanks for all your videos and I will continue to keep watching.
Your presentation and illusion is excellent, and that is what counts.
Me slowing being wiped out of existence while watching the intro
Great job
To be honest, I've slowed down plenty of your tricks to .25 and still couldn't figure how the hell you did it!
I'm not the only one. Good.
cuz its magic
that's because UA-cam supports up to 60fps, and this was shot at 120fps so when you watch it at his perspective there are more frames to be seen
Only magician just smile what he doing . Because magician know it .
Doesn't matter how's its done. It's the yrs and yrs of sleight of hand skill and performance that blows me away. You see magicians on Penn teller fool us, fool them with no skill that anyone can do and upclose sleight of hand rarely fools them, but is awe inspiring. This is the magic I can watch all day. Making a plane disappear or walking through a wall is whatever. I can do that, this I can't. You're incredible dawg.
I've loved n been fascinated with magic for God knows how long ( before 10yrs old) I'm now almost 40 and am more fascinated by a performers skills and talent when I know the method. Without teachers students cease to learn and the art dies... Magic has lived for millennia and shell live for many more.
Im not here to learn magic but this is one of funniest videos I've watched in a long time! 🤣
Way to be a great sport Chris Ramsey. Well done.
Loved it bro magic is supposed to be enjoyable you make it look flawless 💯 keep up great work
My grandpa was quite a well-known magician who specialised in sleight of hand, and although I got to read some of his books from a young age, and learn some of the techniques, it never spoiled my enjoyment of watching a skilled magician pull off a good trick.
Wow. This was a great idea. Now I understand a few tricks, but this just made my interest in seeing more, unknown tricks bigger.
Impressive, what a very talented man. Bless up 🙏🏼 you need to perform
I mean...I still don’t understand how half of those works, so I’m still really impressed!
You’re amazing!✨
Don't be so hard at you. It's very interesting. I think you shloud include a slow motion exemple in your tutorials. I enjoyed each frame of this video. Honestly !
your openness, honesty and confidence is very respectable. You have a strong heart and mind.
Wow! That's crazy talented. Thank you for being bold and brave enough to do this!
That was awesome! Raw, well filmed, intriguing. What's not to like?
10:00 at .25 speed
Can't 'see' it huh
ShadowLight Gaming ur a genius rofl!!! I died!
I wanted to keep it real...so I played this video at double speed...but when watching .25 speed at double speed it was still only half of reality.
pa pa pa pa paaa paaa pa pa pa pa paaa paaa
Go to bed, you're drunk! XD
Lollllll
Im only at 4 minutes and this guy is hilarious.
Thumbs up!!!
I give you props for doing this video. Take as a teaching tool for yourself and others like me who are horrible at sleight of hand.
I know this is one of your older videos but I’ve been a huge fan of yours for about 4 years now I love watching your tutorials and have even started teaching my son some of the tricks I’ve learned from you I want to say thank you! And would be awesome if you’re ever in central Illinois if We could meet you!!!
9:29 @ .25 speed. Woooooaaaahhhh!
Listen to 2:38 at x0.25 speed
Its creepy
it's been 4 days and I am still waiting for him to finish
fffffffffffffffffiiiiiivvvveeeeee ttttttttttttttiiiiiiiiiiiiimmmmmmmmmes sssssslllllooooooooowwwwwwwweeeer
I will download the video, and listen to that part at x4 speed, cuz yt doesn't give me that option :/
LMFAO
brain: **satisfied but also hurt by this video**
also brain: *[confused screaming]*
Don’t beat yerself up, yer still human and everyone loves yer personality, charisma and everything that makes you you, including yer voice. Thanks for the great tutorial. The slo-mo really shows the areas of sleight one needs to concentrate on to make as seamless as you at regular speed. 🌵🤠
Your slo-mo looks better than I do in the mirror real time! I'm always inspired and defeated equally watching magic videos
Back to being a tutorial channel I see... lol jk
@@youssefmessai4082 Jesus calm the fuck down
0:27? Anyone Please

that's why clicked thought it was a tut lmao

Chris, you re a genius in this field. Sleek, clean, sharp and really fast.
woah were in 20018?
what am I in the past?!
20018?? What's the future like?
🤣🤣🤣
@@SuperSinestro Not good.
The magic is in the effect which is really awesome. Showing us the method, and at slo mo in this case, highlights the technical skill Chris has in no way detracts from the result.
As someone that wants to know the mechanics of things, I love videos like this.
"My sleight of hand is trash"
Oh puh-lease 😂
*i never slow vidéos ever i just enjoy it*
That's a bold statement
lmao
I smash a like. Because u said it. And now it broke my screen protector
Funny being back to this video after a while. It was recommended on Facebook and then it motivated me to find out more and get some stuff and now it's just appeared on my UA-cam. So yeah thanks Chris Ramsay!
Thank you for that super demonstration - It just reinforces my appreciation of how much time, skill, patience and dedication goes into your craft. Bravo!!
I think even @ slow motion, it simply shows how clean and smooth your skills are man; no one is going to pass the surveillance and technology levels that are available today.. just think what we're in for in another decade! Regardless; yes it does reveal more than we wish it would but I have to say aside from showing things that some may not have been aware how these illusions were done, show the level of skill, fluidity, and mastering of these techniques you've taken and perfected to the level of a master that you truly are man, so no worries Sir! Great video as always Chris!
Peace,
Nic
On his better halfs account
AAA+
👍👍👍
That VPS was a thing of beauty. God damn, dude.
That what bro?
The question is...
Is the hand quiker than the camera?
Ehhh no.
That opening soundtrack had me coming back. Bass is awesome.
what is that song called?
Great idea! Seeing the slow-mo and getting an inkling of how you made the trick work just made it even MORE MAGICAL! Because, it’s crazy how even knowing how you made it happen still doesn’t get me any closer to being able to do it. It’s gotta be Magic Hands!
Yes you exposed some tricks but it's what the people want to see. Thank you Chris Ramsay
If you look closely you can see him flash from 0:00-11:55
LOL!!
Yup
hahahha
DAMMIT! GODDAMMIT 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
If you recorded the sleigh of hand at 25 fps instead of 60, most of the flashing frames would be gone... pretty sure that's how penn and teller protect the tricks on fool us.
That is so true dropping the frame rate helps a lot
Man it doesn’t matter that we can see how it’s done now, the magic isn’t in being deceived it’s in knowing that something tricky is going on and we can’t see it. Nobody can see in slow motion, so it’s really just a testament to how much practice people put in to perfecting these in normal motion
*“One frame from being magical...”* - a cool magician
Now I can slow motion the slow motion lol
Hi guys ı love you and im from TURKEY
FLASH! Check 3:32
Thank me later.
Please guys, do the second part ! :)
Wes you mischievous pecker checker
FLASH at 0:12 also... left hand
Thanks Chris!
I really liked this video actually! I know you kept saying that it was a bad idea, but most of them I still had to re-watch just to make sure lol.
WES Barker s
Absolutely amazing. I still needed you to tell me what was going on during the slomo to understand
Even slow motion this is still amazing, glad I randomly found your page a couple days ago. Keep it up!
Nobody:
Him: That's like.. one frame
lol have a Like!
Rah!
Hi floss! A fan here.
CHRIS YOU"RE EXPOSING MAGIC... all the trolls in the comments below 😂
Awesome video. You are 100% correct, anyone can watch Shin's routines or anyone elses on Fool Us, AGT, etc. and "see" things you can't see in real time when watching on UA-cam. Been a long time magic lover, and I don't think this detracts from magic at all, it gives you a great appreciation at just how fast and dextrous you guys are, so many hours of practice. As evidenced by a few of your tricks that are virtually undiscernible even when slowed down, very impressive. Thanks for doing this and having fun with it, enjoyed it immensely!
I dont think the tricks are diminished at all by the fact that you see how they are done. I def agree with you that the "magic" is the total package, not just the mechanics of the sleight. It's what you make your audience believe. It's how you control their perception and your trick montage is SICK. The fact that we can see how it's done just shows the amount of skill you have and gets new ppl into magic.
Thanks for the tutorial, Chris.
7:03
laughed so hard!! the most epic poker face ever!
5:33 how it's done is there any tutorial on you tube
Watch in slowmo and pause at 5:19
you know what's better 0.25 the part that is already 0.25🤣🤣🤣
I always knew i could slow videos down to see how things are done but, and I might be the only one, I don't want to ruin the mystery for myself. It was a great idea for a video, Chris and I enjoyed every bit of it. The dexterity - I bet your missus loves you!
I am a fellow Canadian artist. (Musician), and because of these videos, I have been inspired to try card tricks, and my friends enjoy what I can do for them. That's what it is all about. Thanks for the slow motion. Now I can begin to....begin....ha ha
