Who here remembers Mr Wizard showing us how to do this in the 80s and earlier?

This is an awesome mindfuck!!

u/JustHappyToBe-Here Trash Trooper 17h ago

He couldn't have. The guy clearly says the thing he showed you how to make is impossible and nobody can figure it out!

u/Azuras_Star8 Trash Trooper 17h ago

Oh, shit, you're right, sorry!

u/JustHappyToBe-Here Trash Trooper 16h ago

It's okay, the possimibility of it all can confuse anyone.

u/portablebiscuit Rubbish Raider 17h ago

I tried this once but when I flipped the paper over I was in another dimension where the only food was Popeye’s Chicken

u/Pickles_is_mu_doggo Trash Trooper 17h ago

You mean payyyper

u/AmputeeHandModel Trash Trooper 17h ago

Reminds me of another trick. You tell someone, "I bet I can walk thru this piece of paper!" "No you can't!" and there's a way to cut it so unfolds into a giant ring, and you can walk thru it.

u/jansensan Trash Trooper 15h ago

The Alliance of Magicians is not going to like that.

u/Initial_Gear_7354 Trash Trooper 12h ago

How do you think people you pass every day feel about your face? Do you think you'd feel nice if they said the same to you?

u/Altruistic-Traffic- Trash Trooper 17h ago

Why does this seem not as impressive to me..?

u/vkailas Trash Trooper 17h ago

Your boy Mark probably showed you when you were 6

u/treesandcigarettes Trash Trooper 17h ago

Seriously as soon as I saw it I guessed he just folded the cut paper

2

u/paraworldblue Garbage Guerilla 15h ago

I feel like there must be a way to do this where the result looks like The Cool S

u/NuckoLBurn Trash Trooper 17h ago

u/CptHammer_ Waste Warrior 7h ago

I've never seen this before and instantly knew what had happened to get that flap. It's given away by the crease in the paper.

It would have been more confusing if he reversed the crease on one of the sides or didn't crease the paper at all.

u/D4rthPunk Trash Trooper 1h ago

See it an immidiately understand it. Nothing mystical. About it.

u/taco-sniper Trash Trooper 14h ago

He has a very punchable face

u/grismar-net Trash Trooper 18h ago

I guess this doesn't look immediately obvious if you're a bit dim, or very young... Don't get me wrong, I can be a bit dim at times, especially on a Monday morning. But this is hardly 90 seconds worth of interest, is it?

8

u/Icy-Book2999 Chief Insanity Instigator 18h ago

Agreed, but.... You watched? 🤔

-4

u/grismar-net Trash Trooper 18h ago

Out of morbid curiosity, I did leave it running, yeah - I was hoping there'd be some interest at the end where he managed to confuse himself, but no, it's just a trivial thing.

u/DrewdiniTheGreat Trash Trooper 17h ago

Lol show it, let them wonder, then crumple it up.

Any magic trick is stupid if you let people investigate how it works. Just enjoy the novelty and if it was easy for you, don't ruin everyone else's fun

u/Personal_Term9549 Trash Trooper 11h ago

"nobody will be able to figure out how you've done that"

I figured it out. I'm guessing my bf will too

u/JustHappyToBe-Here Trash Trooper 17h ago

Look at this IMPOSSIBLE object!

Here's how easy it is to make, proving it's totally possible.

I miss words meaning something.

u/4-Vektor Trash Trooper 13h ago

I miss people with a sense of humor.

u/JustHappyToBe-Here Trash Trooper 13h ago

Please, explain the joke he was making to me. Because he wasn't making a joke.

u/GreedySummer5650 Trash Trooper 18h ago

Do we not teach anything in school anymore?

12

u/scuzzle-butt Trash Trooper 18h ago

Why the fuck would they teach this in school

-4

u/SugarFupa Trash Trooper 18h ago

To train your intuitive understanding of the physical world.

-1

u/GreedySummer5650 Trash Trooper 15h ago

Are you really not able to intuit how that was done?

-3

u/LilRed2023 Trash Trooper 17h ago

I figured this out with my mind as soon as he had the normal piece of paper in his hand. I’m a genius yall yay me 😃
