Wes Barker is a Canadian magician and comedian doing funny tricks, and telling great stories. You may know me from my TV show Big Trick Energy (truTV, HBOmax, Netflix). Watch here for hilarious, ridiculous, and unfiltered ideas with magic, stunts, and pranks. Either I'm the funniest magician who is also a stand-up comic, or maybe I'm the comic who is the best at magic? Either way you get the idea. I tour all over doing colleges, comedy clubs, and corporate events. Catch the adventures and tricks right here. With this magician / comedian from Vancouver, based out of Toronto, Canada. I make funny stuff. That’s my only rule. Everything has to be funny, from street magic to stage illusions, as long as there is a joke to be made. I do magic tricks, sketches, stand-up comedy, card tricks, mind reading, and tricks with naked people. I’ve been on America’s Got Talent, Penn & Teller: Fool Us, MTV Greatest Party Stories Ever, and Wizard Wars. You can find me pulling pranks on friends, gags on strangers, or just general sleight of hand, magic, illusions, and the occasional bar bet. Wes Barker also hosts a podcast with Chris Ramsay called Bottom Of The Barrel. Go check it out! - Zábava
Loved doing this with you buddy. xo
You were so good on the pencils and so bad on the water one! 😂 Thanks for being down buddy.
That’s wild. You just solved it and I still have no idea. Lmao
Content content!
You would have blown up New York! 🤣
I love seeing you guys doing videos together. 👍🏼
Eric, you were on the right path for another solution with the liquid one when you said “what about the overflow?” If you fill the 500ml once to 300, then again to 500, you’ll have 100ml left in the small cup. Then empty the 500ml cup. Dump the 100 in the big cup, fill the 300 and then dump that 300 into the big cup. 400
Lol, loved this episode the 3gal/5gal or 300ml/500ml thing also has a second solution. Fill up the 3, dump it into the 5 , fill the 3 again, again dump it into the 5 making the 5 gal full and leaving 1 gal in the 3 gal bucket, dump the 5 completely. Then put the 1 from the 3 gal bucket into the 5, fill the 3 one final time and then dump it into the 5 for 4 gallons..
You can also do what Chris did and get 200, then fill the 500 and dump the 100 into the 300, filling it leaves 400.
Even I thought the same
@@talongaudio939 that’s why he said there is a second solution
@@talongaudio939 Thanks sherlock
The simplest solution is to halfway fill both containers and then pour it all in the 5 container.
"Oh, you do puzzles??" 🤣🤣
The first straw solution is correct. The second solution is iffy - in theory, the blue and red straws are at a slight angle and might not touch the pink and green straws.
Alternate solutions to the 400ml puzzle: Fill the 300 and pour into the 500. Fill the 300 again and pour 200 into the 500, leaving 100ml. Empty out the 500 and pour in 100ml from the 300. Fill the 300 and pour into the 500, making 400ml.
the solution isn't iffy you can try it yourself
@@virtualmartini Take your own advice, try it yourself, he is correct, the second solution doesn't work. You can't lay one pencil on top of two so that it's touching both of them and the other end is touching the table at the same time, unless you bend them.
Eric to Chris - "Oh, you do puzzles?" 😂...
Great video Wes - the lads did great 🤘 (the water one hurt my brain 😂)
#2ndtonone
The water one is a classic problem they often bring up in entry-level position interviews in CS
Loved Die Hard with a Vengeance. I’ve always remembered that riddle since then.
And also: “Kits, Kats, Sacks, Wives, how many were going to Saint Ives?”
haha yeah that one is stuck in my brain too!
On scientific american in the 60es they published a solution for SEVEN instead of SIX cigarettes. 6 were arranged in a sort of flower, 7th would be at center vertically. This also gave an extra solution to the SIX cigarettes riddle which was already well known back then, with one of the two solutions showed here.
Good one... Big hello to all of you... Love you all... And Wes please give me my money back... 😂😂😂
So cool. More of this please. Just having fun.
I might have been shouting the answers at my monitor, a little.
😆
Oh how much I love it when you’re doing videos together! 🥳😍
Although Eric would have blown up New York 🤭
The 400 puzzle is fun and nostalgic to me because it was in KotoR 1. Playing through it for the light side I had to do that puzzle and I remember stumbling into the correct answer without understanding what I had done
You can also stack the golf balls one on top of the other, but it is very difficult.
I don't have pencils here, but I'm sure, the 2-2-2 shape is not solving it at 3:38. It seems like it is, but there is a tiny gap between blue and green pencils. They all have to be on parallel planes for them all to touch. 3-3 solution seems to be legit though.
I noticed that too. It would be more obvious with larger objects like paper towel tubes or something.
I originally subscribed to Chris' channel, but find myself watching more of Wes' fun hijinks and thought provokers.
He's less douchey and doesn't dress and talk like a teenager. Satisfyingly dope bro
4:51 Funny enough, there's a Oldschool Runescape quest where you do this water puzzle. You solve it exactly the same way.
Super fun Wes. I love when you guys challenge each other on things
Common games in point and click games. Love it
"Pencil crayons"🇨🇦
"colored pencils" 🇺🇸
Did the water puzzle thing when I was a kid. It was one of the games you could play on a website from the show called cyber chase.
“Oh you do puzzles?”
You could also:
- Pour 300 from the small glass into the big one
- Refill the small one and pour only 200 to completely fill the big one. Now the small one contains only 100.
- Empty the big one, pour the 100 from the small one into the big one.
- Refill the small one and pour the whole 300 on the big one. The big one now contains 400.
XD
Another round of great puzzles. I look forward to these videos They’re so much fun to watch and I try to solve them as well. I’m not good at solving the puzzles but I’m better than I was when I first started watching y’all. Have a great day everyone.
Clearly Chris owns Wes's channel so he can shout out whatever he wants 🤣
Fun. The pencil one was new to me. Great BoB segue too!!
That was great!
@3:00 i'm guessing the answer to the pencils is to make an overlapping triangle with two pencils/straws on each edge.
Always the best! Love all you guys! "Content content" lol ✌️❤️
OMG He admit it! Eric Loves his mother-in-law!
Similar to those riddles there is with coins. If i remember it correctly, i think 5 coins can be arranged so that each one touches all the others
Good fun!
Such a fun video. 💚💚💚
The water one, that was the more complicated way.
1. Fill 300 and pour into 500.
2. Fill 300 again, pour to fill 500 and stop with 100 left in 300.
3. Empty 500. Dump 100 in 500.
4. Fill 300 and pour into 500.
Bam 400
Can't see the pencil solution beyond something with a triangle 😞
Glad they were able to pencil ✏️ you in for this
😉🙃
Alex Boyer got you a cameo in Corridor Crew latest video as "Blurred Dude" 😂 gg WES! Love CCrew channel. Thought you should know ;)
If you fill the cups half the way you will get 400. (250 + 150)
How to know they are half full? Tilt the mug so the water level hits the bottom and the top of the cup, like [/]
Assuming it's round ^_~
@@GeneralChangOfDanang
Exactly =)
These are awesome brain strainers, very cool!
whens big trick energy szn 2 coming out?
Cup one. Fill the 300, dump into the 500, then fill the 300 again, dump into the 500 until that is full. You have 100 left in the 300 cup, so dump out all the water in the 500, dump the 100 into the 500, then fill the 300 and dump it into the 500. You have 400 at that point.
cool stuff
a more direct, but less precise, way to solve the last one is just fill each cup halfway
Yup and by filling each past halfway then slowly pouring out on an angle you can get a fairly accurate measurement when the water is even / a straight line from the base opposite to the rim where the water is being poured out
I guess the video should be called "Confusing My Friends (And Myself) With Easy Riddles" ;)
Pencil crayons? 🤨
The bottom of the barrel shoutout was a good call. You really do seem to be scraping it. ;P
The rules for the pencils.. is it any part of the pencil or specifically the wood? Could you draw intersecting lines on a peice of paper because the graphite, part of the pencil, would count?

You could create "Wes coins" with a weird symbol and make title like : WIN 10 000§ if you can solve these riddles and give bills with your face on it.
3:40 I'm calling BS on the pencil one. That green one won't be touching the red one because it's angled upward over the pink one. Green probably also isn't touching blue or the other red for the same reason.
Cups thing was too much. Get it to the 200, then pair up the other class with the same amount of water by eyeballing it. :)
Thought it was ryan Reynolds on the cover
300 ml will be cup A and 500 will be cup B...
fill cup A with water. pour water into cup B. fill up cup a again and pour the rest into cup B leaving 100 ml in the cup... empty cup B and pour the remainder of cup A into it. then simply fill cup A again and pour it in giving you 400 ml.
Wow. You guys are adults.
Is it not woke to call them colored pencils anymore? Or are pencil crayons a Canadian thing?
Must be Canadian. I’ve never heard them called any other thing.
@@WesBarker From Virginia, I had never heard them called pencil crayons. But in our neck of the Appalachians’ we call the majority of shit by the wrong name.
Regardless, felt like a perfect opportunity for a half-assed woke joke. Cheers!
