When conspiracy nuts start spouting their bollocks, the best answer is "That's what they want you to think".

Decent slight of hand in the first one. Second was well done. Don't find find magicians very entertaining though.

Funny if people really believed he had turned back the time on all their phones.

Good one...

Yes that's a pretty good trick. It would be better without the presenter and her hysterical voice.

Not very impressed.
Why not? I think it's a pretty good trick.

Too obvious how it was done and quite clumsily done I thought. Why were the people standing with their legs apart and avoiding stepping in the middle of the boxes? Why did both boxes shake so much once the covers were up? Did the spin look realistic?

Examine a lot of tricks and it becomes obvious. But if you are not looking too carefully you’ll miss all that

For Sriram’s benefit, they used twins and secret compartments in the boxes, which I think were very well hidden.

Didn't have to look carefully with this one though, hence why I wasn't impressed.
