So you're saying every video ever made of someone doing magic tricks is edited?

Okay.
.

Tv magicians are, even the audience is in on it.

 

[Gary]

Tv magicians are, even the audience is in on it.

YouTube videos too?

All edited?

 

[quinntar]

YouTube videos too?

All edited?

Anything that's pre recorded can be edited later, even if it's a pre recording of live events.

Anything can be edited. I know that. Do you believe they are?

 

[quinntar]

Anything can be edited. I know that. Do you believe they are?

For the most part yes.

 

[Gary]

For the most part yes.

Okay.

 

[KevinK]

Explain that flag "trick".
.

What would be the point? Gary, do you really believe that common magic tricks performed by professional magicians are based on supernatural forces? And if I can't personally come up with a logical scientific explanation, it proves that it's supernatural (or whatever you want to call it). I hate to interpret or paraphrase; can you state your beliefs at this juncture so we all know where we stand?

 

[quinntar]

Okay.

Gary, what made you think magicians like dynamo were performing by the power of satan.

 

[Gary]

Gary, do you really believe that common magic tricks performed by professional magicians are based on supernatural forces?

Yes, I actually do. Does that surprise you?

[Gary]

Gary, what made you think magicians like dynamo were performing by the power of satan.

Research.

 

[quinntar]

Research.

How and what did you research to come to that conclusion.

 

[quinntar]

Yes, I actually do. Does that surprise you?
.

A little.

 

[KevinK]

Yes, I actually do. Does that surprise you?
.

It does. Haven't you watched shows like the Breaking the Magician's Code: Magic's Biggest Secrets Finally Revealed where popular illusions are exposed as to how they're done? Or just pick up a book on how to do magic. It's just hard to believe you're this naive. Are you just trolling?

 

[Gary]

It's just hard to believe you're this naive.

Thanks man.

 

[KevinK]

Thanks man.

I'm not trying to put you down. I just don't know how to deal with this.

 

[Gary]

I just don't know how to deal with this.

It's quite simple actually. You just walk away.

 

[KevinK]

It's quite simple actually. You just walk away.

Is that what you want me to do? I'll walk in a sec. I'm going to take a crack at the illusion, first.

 

[Gary]

It's complicated.

 

[Gary]

You do as you please.

Gary, you can't be serious. Stage "magic" is not magic, and there is nothing spiritual about it.
It is just entertainment. Given the secrets and enough money to build the sets, any of us could do it.
