They don't come up with the tricks. The magician's do. They have to hire; train their assistants; do the presentation; interact with the audience and market themselves.
The magician is essentially the diversion for the audience, who'll spend far more time looking at what the magician is doing than what the assistants are doing.
I watch these videos each night, before going to bed. Just for the beautiful assistants. Love 'em. It's a pity, we never see them more of them in any other show or serials / movies.
Val Kent I’m trolling? when you’re clearly looking at their bodies? Nothing to troll about... simply saying your question “don’t you like looking at pretty girls?” Really translates into “don’t you like checking them out and objectifying them”
Ironically, he's more famous as the Masked Magician. When this series first aired on television over 20-years ago, the final episode was him revealing his true identity, and everybody was like, "Who?" and then almost immediately forgot about him. That's probably why he resumed his Masked Magician persona to record more episodes, because that's where his real fame and fortune was.
I think initially he swung the 2nd and 3rd rods a little bit when he inserted them into the barrel, and we can already see the trick there. He could be more careful.
Honestly I would love to see the behind the scenes of this. It would be so interesting to see how they build the props and in some cases the outfits (the hoop skirt that was red in that one episode) btw 2019 anyone? Lol
At 1.04 the second rod bends, and at 1.16 the third rod bends. Bizarre how he only shows how the ends are solid. Because they are. It's the middle 2 rods that are flexible enough for the assistant to bend and squeeze through! .. I'm like 2 minutes in and i already know how it's done!
Guys, guys...your're missing the point - of course the magician's assistants are pert and scantily clad, that's to divert your attention while he's hiding something !
I missed something. Whose fingers grab the first red hanky? The assistant is already on the other side waiting to push her second hanky through the hole.
The magician places bars which protrude from the top and can be seen clearly. When she passed from one barrel to another through the spring-connected bars, why did we not see these bars, that are protruding move down and bend?
Pretty assistants is key point to get audience from trying to figure out all the tricks that goes on while the trick is performed. If they used someone with a face that looked like an unmade bed, no one would look at them. I hope they get paid faitly, as they are the ones tha makes the magic happen.
I was thinking twins because they didn't show you the other barrel being empty. She could have just tucked the second red hanky back in her pants and they should have shown the other barrel empty.. that would have been even more convincing.
While the Masked Magician is fantastic, let's not forget to give credit to the one young lady assistant, who without her, most of these illusions would not be possible
does the girl use both her hands, one hand in each hole at the same time for the red handkerchief? That looks quite difficult to do. She also has to be very fast. I wish you'd done the reveal with transparent barrels.
I don't understand how we see her take the red hanky and then instantly see her show it in the other barrel. Those are her fingers in both barrels, right?
Houdini never performed this illusion. Probably confusing this with the swallowed and threaded needle trick - one of Houdini's signature effects. Someone needs a class in magic history.
the assistants in tricks like these really deserve more credit
oh they absolutely do ... they are the ones that make the magic work and they often need to train like athletes to do it
The lovely debbie mcgee
They don't come up with the tricks. The magician's do. They have to hire; train their assistants; do the presentation; interact with the audience and market themselves.
@@Mitjitsu what does that have to do with saying "the magicians assistants deserve more credit"? lol
@@lanadrawssomestuff9367 think that person meant they dont need credit cause the magician did all the work or something
Even with the secrets revealed, the assistants themselves deserve a lot of credit for the kind of flexibility and agility needed to pull this off.
They are the true drivers of any illusion. :)
@@TheGachaGourmand Nope, It's called Teamwork.
@@Cartoonman154 That is another way to put it.
I used to watch this when I was younger and I think I understand now why my parents dissaproved of the narrator xD
So you were shielded from the real world by your parents. Hate when that happens
the assistant's really are the entire show, i've done magic shows and it's insane how much the magician isn't doing the real work, it's all us!
The magician is essentially the diversion for the audience, who'll spend far more time looking at what the magician is doing than what the assistants are doing.
If only the magician didn't force the assistants to work for them in perpetuity. Oh, cruel world.
Daisy Birch:honest question:Were there any transsexuals in the mix back in the early 2000’s?
Well, you could always get a group together then design, build and finance your own magic show....sounds like a lot of work....
Defqon okay highness
As the audience is distracted by assistants, I mean assistants spinning the barrel..🤣🤣🤣🤣
Narrator👌👌
WOW
They are prettyyyyyyyy
The narrator is so elequent..he is the same person that narrators for cheaters
The narrator should receive a raise. 🤑 💰 💵
🖤🖤🖤
I am lucky enough to have this show in my generation
I watch these videos each night, before going to bed. Just for the beautiful assistants. Love 'em.
It's a pity, we never see them more of them in any other show or serials / movies.
“He’s had her in more tricky positions than this”?! Thought this was about magic lol
John Cook jhjhjk
It is (kinda) magic, John Cook. It's colloquially called "hide the sausage" 🤣
@@PurplePinkRed Keep it in your pants, bro.
Lol
@@PurplePinkRed bahahaha
It's a great trick. Imagine watching it in Houdini's times. It sure did look like real magic!
i never noticed how pervy this show was wth
What's so pervy? Don't you like looking at pretty girls?
What is normal admiration of girls is considered pervy nowadays?
Val Kent wow... I can’t believe you actually just said that lol
Val Kent asked that lol with the obvious hidden agenda you checking out their bodies
Val Kent I’m trolling? when you’re clearly looking at their bodies? Nothing to troll about... simply saying your question “don’t you like looking at pretty girls?” Really translates into “don’t you like checking them out and objectifying them”
Most stage magic shows boil down to "there's a trap door and the girl is small and limber."
Really? I thought it was real magic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111
Let’s just give credit to that lady she really worked hard to make this trick work
Always *"beautiful assistant"*
Addicted to.... Pretty assistants!!
lOoKs trUe..
XDDDD
What
👽💀kkk kkkkkkk
The narrator is a dirty, old man
"Looks like a barrel of fun" Lol
Emmanuel James 7
I'd like to give it a try....
The commentary is the best part
Are you stuck young assistant??
At least he didn't say he's Frito lay.
i like to watch that episode when masked magician revealed his identity........

"Looks like a barrel of fun" MY GUY 😂
Everyone crying about the narrator, as if he's not reading off a piece of paper someone else wrote lol
Ikr
Yeah everyone knows that. It’s still funny to joke about.
@@esdiary6710 э⁹
The best thing about the entire show is the narrator.
@@DjVortex-w Well, I wouldn't say "the best" thing.
the Narrator is just amazing. it elevates the trick into another dimension
I Just Love His Drama With his Little Hand Gestures. The Woman Do All the Work.
All I can do is clap 👏🏾 👏🏾
That reveal was even more impressive than the trick!!
Wow
I think initially he swung the 2nd and 3rd rods a little bit when he inserted them into the barrel, and we can already see the trick there. He could be more careful.
Don't think he was upset about letting us in on the secret.....
Hit like for the pervy narrator :D
This is a video about magic? I was just watching the assistants
It’s part of his script dummy
Superb I love this magician Mr. Valentino
wow this one was fun and like a real magic trick. I almost regret seeing how it was done 😂
That narrator lol when I was a kid I didn’t think he was so pervy 😂
Assistant did the hard work ... i applaud her...
Honestly I would love to see the behind the scenes of this. It would be so interesting to see how they build the props and in some cases the outfits (the hoop skirt that was red in that one episode) btw 2019 anyone? Lol
Me!
More like 2023
The wobble in those two middle rods is evident if you look hard enough when they are put in
I love the narrator (no homo). He should be given more credits
He’s kinda perverted
The assistants are magically beautiful ❤
1:04 Watch the second rod bend.
The 3rd one bends @ 1.16 aswell lol!
Funny how he only shows us the 2 end ones are solid. Because they are. It's the middle 2 that are flexible enough for her to bend and slip through x
Terrible
Wait…where did the hand from the first barrel come from when she “grabbed” the handkerchief?
she passes between the barrels feet first. She has one had in the original barrel grabbing the red handkerchief from the magician.
@@dchenkin02 I’m wondering how she does it so fast
At 1.04 the second rod bends, and at 1.16 the third rod bends. Bizarre how he only shows how the ends are solid. Because they are. It's the middle 2 rods that are flexible enough for the assistant to bend and squeeze through! .. I'm like 2 minutes in and i already know how it's done!
Little wiggle
Astute observation...
I thought I was crazy when I saw the second rod move when he put it in the thingy... Never mind....
It's a hard rod and she had a firm grip on it
Epic dramatic, satisfying theme ending music.
This was actually really clear from the start.
Plz revealed new and dangerous magic tricks
Next, he'll show you how he escaped from Wuhan without getting infected!
I have been watching this for more than 4 years I love it
Narrator, formerly "Assistant director Skinner" from the X-Files
Can you make one of your Show Girls magically appear in my room ???? Plz
Cee Jay what the hell
Ok
Cee Jay lol
XD
How in the world will he do that then?...
Guys, guys...your're missing the point - of course the magician's assistants are pert and scantily clad, that's to divert your attention while he's hiding something !
does that trick work on (straight) women audiences?
@@lostn65 If it was an all-women audience, the assistant would be probably be some young poser in satin peanut smugglers.
The mor I watch these videos the easier it is to figure them out.
The engineer of these gimmicked props are the real magicians, the second rate hookers just follow the schemes
Amazing👍👍👍👍👍👍
You could see the second and third rod wiggle while he was inserting them at the beginning
this guy is my childhood
I like the double entendres in all of these videos
I love this chanell because the magic tricks are awsome and the secret are revealed.
I missed something. Whose fingers grab the first red hanky? The assistant is already on the other side waiting to push her second hanky through the hole.
The retro narrator is more than half the fun ..
The magician places bars which protrude from the top and can be seen clearly. When she passed from one barrel to another through the spring-connected bars, why did we not see these bars, that are protruding move down and bend?

If they used someone with a face that looked like an unmade bed, no one would look at them. I hope they get paid faitly, as they are the ones tha makes the magic happen.
And years later still distracted by the assistants.
As the audiece were distracted by the asistants, I mean, by the assistants' spinning the barrels.... LOL
This scares me with the mask and the music and lighting
Great magic trick wow.
These shows from the 1990's were great! The narrator is Mitch Pileggi...Assistant Director Walter Skinner from the X-Files...golden TV days!
I was thinking twins because they didn't show you the other barrel being empty. She could have just tucked the second red hanky back in her pants and they should have shown the other barrel empty.. that would have been even more convincing.
Val Valentino is the Masked Magician.
Spoiler alert
Yeah anyone with internet can Google it. Why are acting like its secret
Why are you*
Now name the girls
this was on my recommendation! i used to watch this show back then lmao
While the Masked Magician is fantastic, let's not forget to give credit to the one young lady assistant, who without her, most of these illusions would not be possible
It reminds me of Zoe Bell. On the set of Xena: Warrior Princess, she called Lucy Lawless her "acting double."
The commentary is the best part
I'd have anxiety attack inside those barrels
"The barrel of fun" 🤣
does the girl use both her hands, one hand in each hole at the same time for the red handkerchief? That looks quite difficult to do. She also has to be very fast.
I wish you'd done the reveal with transparent barrels.
Awesome video and thanks for sharing 👍 💚
I was expecting a twin with out of camera entry. Nice solution though
I'm surprised 2:03 wasn't cut and redone because he straight up shows the bullseye cutout lol
You could see both middle rods bend while he was inserting them.
Yep. They were flopping around like rubber bands.
Yup. My rod also bends when I insert it. There seems to be a systemic malfunction with magic rods.
Great Assistance
Can you make a video on quickly dress 👗 changing plz
That assistant that goes in the barrel is the star of the show she always does the assistant tricks or it's the black haired one
Unsung heroines! Would love to know more about them. Beginning with their names.
The real Magic’s in the Assistant’s. Like when you notice😂
Stop
-Who else used to watch this as a kid?!-
A glorious time before pc culture the girls and narrator are absolutely amazing. Miss those days
she is so beautiful!
Thanks for sharing very useful information 🙏
I don't understand how we see her take the red hanky and then instantly see her show it in the other barrel. Those are her fingers in both barrels, right?
I used to watch this show many times
Even more charming 😂
Even before the end you knew there had to be something wrong with those " solid " steel tubes and those " solid " steel plates.
I just remembered this used to be on Netflix
I love magic i love magic
And tbis program i like very much my father also liked
how could anyone even fathom this? 😦
SHELLBACKS CLUB 🐢 Auf b NOTTE
NOT ... B
A SO VIEL
Beautiful
He is doing magic and he is revealing his secrets tooo
Masked Magician 💪💪 OG GOAT 💯🔥
I’m like wow that’s so cool and tricky.. my claustrophobia is like haha you funny
I suspected the bars were rigged. I thought that they collapsed into one another. Spring idea brilliant.
This is just a re upload
Marty Mcmarty I knew how it was done seen it before
Why would they bother with hiding the red handkerchief back into the first barrel?
2:09 I don't like where this is going.
Isn't the part about putting the red cloth into the other barrel in the end completely pointless ?
Very nice Sir
Nice magic
How did she rotate for her feet to get first into the other barrel?
Her feet are already facing the other barrel
Now I'm older, I pretty much understood that I clearly didn't understand the narrator's hidden agenda 🤣
If I buy the wine barrels is the girl included?

Keira’s Club! It was a joke... So I am gonna assume your comment was also a joke.. He/she basically complimented the girl
Houdini never performed this illusion. Probably confusing this with the swallowed and threaded needle trick - one of Houdini's signature effects. Someone needs a class in magic history.
Someone get the narrator a box of tissues and a bottle of lotion.
assistant are more interesting than the bad tricks
Awesome video 😆😆😆😍😍😍
Love listening to Mitch Pileggi
