    What I loved the most about this trick, was the fluidity especially when he stuck his arm visibly through the hole into the direction of us, the audience, to then turn around and without missing a beat present another ball. That moment made it complete for me. Very well done mate! Loved it!

Those are some strong fingers and impressive reach, and even getting the forearms involved? it took me a bit to notice that!

    it's a well done sleight of hand trick, but his execution was off during a couple of the parts, and you can see things moving if you know where to look. I think the multiple camera angles are partly to blame, but it's still an impressive display of dexterity, and Penn is 100% right that even if you knew exactly how it was done it'd still be worthy of applause.

    This is a great trick. Penn wasn't correct though, when you now how its done you're not as impressed, but even more impressed than when you don't know. Bet that took a lot of practice and confidence in your abilities to get to this flawless performance
