      I believe the guest is legit and he says "throw the pages" with enough of a gap in between "on the count of three" so that most people will throw them and look silly.

    The page is on the sword before you stab into the pages I slowed it down and it's on the sword before the sword even gets close to the rest of the pages, explains why it's all folded up and you stand with your back to us, you have to hide it at the perfect angle and it fans out a bit because the paper in a phone book is so thin

    • @JacobReid

    • @TurkIsAwesome
      @TurkIsAwesome Před 7 lety

      poss. page break, he stops at the page he planned on. also for the other dude, its too fast to see the page on the sword before it hits the other pages.

    • @petermeier2695

    go to 7:08 and use the "." and "," keys on your keyboard. Watch the magic....
    It still doesn't explain how he knows which page to use. The only method I can think of is a "force" but this was disproven on Penn & Teller. So honestly.. I have no frickin' idea how.

    • @Ink_Addict93
      @Ink_Addict93 Před 5 lety

      When he tells him to pick a page number he holds the book in a manor to where you cant see his right hand, he slightly alters that page with that hand so he has a reference. In this scenario he used the “getting the chair” action to take a peak at what page was altered. Now he knows what page it is and in the end he simply bluffed that he caught the right page. Which is why he doesn’t let anyone verify if it is the actual page.
