I watched Jon Dorenbos on AGT and it never gets old for me. He is so happy and so full of positive energy that I can't even fathom how he got here from where he came from. If you don't know his back story, it's worth a read. I just love what he does. Motivation, encouragement and magic.
Yeah, but she's smart enough not to want to be President. Someone tried nominating Oprah, remember that? Remember her reaction? Something like 'Oh, HELL no!' (I know she didn't actually curse). She was vehement about it. There are VERY good reasons for that. Mental health is one, physical safety of the nominee and their loved ones being another, and there are more. Ellen knows all this.
OK this is how he does it.... When you look back at 4:08 you can see that he's grabbing something from the back of the chair. And that's the paper saying all the things Ellen wrote on the boards. Meanwhile the person behind the stage writing it down and putting it in back of the chair and when he comes down from the chair you can see him put it in the envelope so it looks like he's taking it out of the envelope like it was there the entire time...
Because real magic doesn't exist so magicians call what they do "tricks" themselves. That's why we have fun and that why you don't reveal them because they're all playing with our eyes, we and them both know that :) so next time you watch a magic show, just try not to be too critical at the tricks. It's more fun that way.
This guy is so powerful and inspirational! I love his energy, I know some people says this is fake, but honestly just enjoy it. Sure most magician trick are fake, but does every magician give out powerful messages? Or just do tricks to entertain and get famous?
I don't wanna say it, but the words trick is so obvious, some people wrote those words at back stage, and stick it behind the chair, watch his hand, he tried to cover it with the envelop, the back of the envelop was cut, he took the sheet from his another hand behind the envelop.
its the sing, she chose the 6 of spades and he made it so that all of the other cards that had the same sing (spade) were the only ones facing up and in numerical order
the first trick is he somehow made the one card she said face up and then when she shuffled the deck somehow got the rest of the spades in order and face up
Every time he performs they make sure to mention he is Jon Dorenbos from the Philly Eagles. It's very much like how Barry from East Enders was introduced every time he showed up in the series Extras.
WOW! I remember this guy from agt. He awesome and great personality. I have to say his tricks are equal to Ellen's scares. In the matter of keeps you on the edge of your seat. Lol and worth an encore 👏👏👏🎉👍😄
I've been doing sleight of hand for seventeen years. Jon...How the hell did you run a Triumph routine like that? I saw no culls, no switches. You sir, are something else...
From a technical standpoint, grace is sub par. She sings the wrong notes, her voice cracks, and her ukulele playing is average at best. There is no doubt that her talent is unrefined. Even Simon pointed out the technical issues with her during one critique (semi-finals?). Make no mistake, Grace has potential, but the fact remains that she is CURRENTLY unpolished with an uncertainty as to whether her potential will ever really materialize because of her young age. Perhaps, many fans love her despite the said flaws, but it's certainly not inaccurate to say that she is not that great--especially when compared to the polished and refined talent that she beat for the top prize. It's really a shame because now that she's already won a million bucks and counting, and a mini superstar in her own right--there is no real incentive to get better unless it's a personal and internal desire to reach one's full potential. There is no way anyone could know what the future Grace will be. When people ask about the downward direction of music and the excess of crap and awful singers flooding the airwaves, I always point to the stans and fanatics with rabid dedication who are willing to bypass common sense and overlook mediocrity for the sake of fanaticism. Taylor Swift is one of the biggest stars today, but she couldn't break out of a wet paper bag when it comes to singing. I thought it was very telling when Simon suggested that Grace would go on to become the next Taylor Swift.
Imagine being this bitter about a 12 year old. Hiding behind an anonymous username to over analyze everything about a little girl who auditioned for a TV show for fun. Maybe you should listen to Ellen's message.
Zoey Grace--Maybe you should stop imagining things, learn how appropriately counter arguments you don't agree with or STHU. For the record, I'm neither bitter or bothered by Grace's win.
I know it’s old but did anyone else notice at 4:52 Ellen stopped the deck at the bottom quarter and he has Ellen actually pick from the top of the deck
At 3:30 he tells Ellen to write down a line that he himself chooses, this line he wrote down in advance on the paper in the envelope. Yes, it's Ellen's catch phrase but he picked it for this part of the trick. A bit too obvious. Still, his card skills are excellent!
Ahh I found a femenazi that does not support equal rights for all. Hillary supporters (generalizing of course) are hypocritical liars who are too brainwashed to understand the truth.
Ryan Clarke actually I think that might be another envelope, that's in case they would've said the words in a different order he would've been like, "i have an envelope under this chair" with the words on that order instead of getting on the chair to grab the other one.
If you don’t like spoilers don’t read this.....he grabbed a paper from behind the chair and then pretends to put it In a pre cut envelope. This piece of paper was put there by someone who wrote down everything the crowd Said backstage then probably came on pretending to move stuff around, another reason why they were performing the trick away from that area and as for the card trick at 5:30 it’s just a bunch of double lifts (grabbing two cards at once)
It's funny how some are trying to reveal and ruin magic tricks. Come on fellas they are not Wizards/witches of couse it's not real magic. Haha I hate some for being the know-it-all type of viewer, magic tricks are supposed to be enjoyed. 😂😂😂
first lastname You say I have no sense of humour,but I think that jokes nowadays simply arent good jokes.People talk complete BS and are like i was joking hahhah funny,oh you dont like my stupid joke,you have no sense of humor idiot
first lastname Its cool if he was joking,I misunderstood him cuz there is a lot of jelaous people who put others down to make themselves better,and we need more people like this guy in ellen who bring their positive and kind nature to the picture,thats all
Antonia Lehnert it's normally because of the audience, when the camera shows the audience the comments are sometimes enabled, I don't really know to much
He's so hyped and happy to be performing I frikkin love it xD
yeah haha watching him made my day!

He has SUCH amazing energy and kindness just radiates off him... we need more people like him in the world
He is so slick with the cards!
He’s so awesome. Never get tired of his positive energy.
He's a great magician. I'd love to go to one of his shows some day!
Ellen for president 2020!!! She already has a slogan... BE KIND TO ONE ANOTHER
Yeah, but she's smart enough not to want to be President. Someone tried nominating Oprah, remember that? Remember her reaction? Something like 'Oh, HELL no!' (I know she didn't actually curse). She was vehement about it. There are VERY good reasons for that. Mental health is one, physical safety of the nominee and their loved ones being another, and there are more. Ellen knows all this.
yesss she better than trump
devesh raval your soooooo rube
Someone Like You It would be hillary-ious

His showmanship is amazing!!
"your six goes right there" - in between the 4 and the 5

Ellen You are an inspiration to me , i watch your show and lifts my spirits up . You are amazing.
football players showing card tricks, Pretty great
Never a dull moment in any of his acts
OK this is how he does it....
When you look back at 4:08 you can see that he's grabbing something from the back of the chair. And that's the paper saying all the things Ellen wrote on the boards.

Nathan G
Good!
Can you explain the card trick?
Nathan G trueeeee thx
THen dont read it... after reading the first sentence, stop reading.
Nathan G
exactly !!! the back of the enveloppe was cut to lethim slide the paper inside!!
i don't care how he does it, as long as he's entertaining and inspiring
One of the most underrated magicians of all time.
You're a wizard Harry! Oops, meant Jon
Matt Elliott Harry Potter fan for life
Matt Elliott lmao
Matt Elliott difhfjccjfnz CB BCE comes can f
Tom Oh is your time to come over and do you want to come home
Damn you're good at it
Ellen!!! U r super amazing!!!! Love and respect all the way from Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹😘😘😘
He hasn't changed his shirt since the last time he was on the show. It must smell by now.
Mike Hermida don't you see it a different color of jersey? Idiot LMAOO
Be kind to another
Mike Hermida yea he did one of his jerseys are green and one is black
Ellen face is so confused haha😀
first time i'm seeing her making blurryfaces..
I've seen tricks like this so much!!! how is it done
youri1309 thanks bro
100's/1000's h = 1's/10's h = 1/10 h = 6mins. Don't have that much time for witchcraft.
IF you look closely at 4:52 you can see that he actually gave her a card, other than the one she chose
Pretty much any trick where the magician has the cards in his hands and tells the other person to say "stop" is a card force.
why do you ruin it
same in 0:31
Skye Halvorsen
It's why we can't have nice things.
Because real magic doesn't exist so magicians call what they do "tricks" themselves. That's why we have fun and that why you don't reveal them because they're all playing with our eyes, we and them both know that :) so next time you watch a magic show, just try not to be too critical at the tricks. It's more fun that way.
Everytime I see John I can't help but think about his story!
I love when he always has a smile on his face!!😍
I always find the comment section on an Ellen video to always be the kindest. Love it!
This guy is so powerful and inspirational! I love his energy, I know some people says this is fake, but honestly just enjoy it. Sure most magician trick are fake, but does every magician give out powerful messages? Or just do tricks to entertain and get famous?
I don't know if he's the best magician, I just know he's the coolest!
He has the energy as my gym teacher, I LOVE IT
I love watching these little videos
I don't wanna say it, but the words trick is so obvious, some people wrote those words at back stage, and stick it behind the chair, watch his hand, he tried to cover it with the envelop, the back of the envelop was cut, he took the sheet from his another hand behind the envelop.
I'll listen to you once you learn how to spell "envelope"
+Jolly St. Nick then you can get out now.
TheRussianGenius you're the best lol
lau victor i see i never knew your were there i tried looking at the audience to see if u were there

Happyness is not always a decision.
SixtySix when is it not a decision ? it's your emotion ,your decision

John Dorenbos...........you.....,rock
i didn't really understand the first magic trick but amazing trick and this guy is an amazing guy keep up the good work my man
Hydar Ail I didn’t understand the first one too
its the sing, she chose the 6 of spades and he made it so that all of the other cards that had the same sing (spade) were the only ones facing up and in numerical order
the first trick is he somehow made the one card she said face up and then when she shuffled the deck somehow got the rest of the spades in order and face up
This guy is my new spirit animal.
Every time he performs they make sure to mention he is Jon Dorenbos from the Philly Eagles. It's very much like how Barry from East Enders was introduced every time he showed up in the series Extras.
I love this guy's energy!!
I have never seen such magic
Superb
Someone else did the same trick with the audience on Ellen a while back. Don't remember his name.
Shawn Farqhuar
Leander ipad magician man

Wow Mind-Blowing is right good job
That girl at 3:26 looks like a character from SNL or something lol
Nicci Granacher lmfaooooooooooo
Biggest fan of yours love from INDIA...
OMG I swear that at 30 second when Ellen said "Stop", my wifi went off, so the clip actually stopped and I freaked out!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
I was waiting for him to say "hi billy mays here"
WOW! I remember this guy from agt. He awesome and great personality. I have to say his tricks are equal to Ellen's scares. In the matter of keeps you on the edge of your seat. Lol and worth an encore 👏👏👏🎉👍😄
I've been doing sleight of hand for seventeen years. Jon...How the hell did you run a Triumph routine like that? I saw no culls, no switches. You sir, are something else...
i totally love this guy.... very kind funny and awesome tricks
I can't quite follow him, but I love his energy xDDD
Did anyone notice that he put the 6 in between the 4 and the 5 , instead of in between the 5 and the 7 , btw great show, love u ellen
And he lost to a 12 year old singer who isn't that great?!
Math Lover Her voice is still young, it will change. Right now it cracks often and not in the good way. She sings through her nose.
Jody and Matt what kind of stupid comment is that
From a technical standpoint, grace is sub par. She sings the wrong notes, her voice cracks, and her ukulele playing is average at best. There is no doubt that her talent is unrefined. Even Simon pointed out the technical issues with her during one critique (semi-finals?).

Loveable dude!
He's a professional football player too? What?! That's amazing
at 4:53 you can see it doesn't matter what card she chose because he quickly changed the deck to a different amount
LOVE THIS GUY!!
I know it’s old but did anyone else notice at 4:52 Ellen stopped the deck at the bottom quarter and he has Ellen actually pick from the top of the deck
Ok, seriously. when this guy retires from football he has a future as a motivational speaker at schools.
At 3:30 he tells Ellen to write down a line that he himself chooses, this line he wrote down in advance on the paper in the envelope. Yes, it's Ellen's catch phrase but he picked it for this part of the trick. A bit too obvious. Still, his card skills are excellent!
FINALLY A VIDEO WITH COMMENTS NOT DISABLED
At 2:29 look where the yellow envelope is, and then at 4:00 . Compare and you'll see the magic.
I'm pretty sure he snorted a line before he came on stage
SphynxF onm 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nobody cares if you are early.. So I should stop commenting I'm early I guess
well thats fortunate, cos i'm always late.
if you know what I mean ;)
Babababa Tee yup
Babababa Tee I like being a person who makes a comment about being like 3 years late watching a video and has never seen it.
Babababa Tee
this football player number 46 got some serious Talent
Cool. Can u do the magic treak where Donald Trump desapears forever?
Shady Puta no magic trick can fix your spelling
Andrew Condra aaa WOW I FOUND A TRUMP SUPPORTER
😂😂😂😂😂😂 best comment so far
Ahh I found a femenazi that does not support equal rights for all. Hillary supporters (generalizing of course) are hypocritical liars who are too brainwashed to understand the truth.
..u made my day..
first thing is a triumph - routine, third one is an ambitious card. Love the endings of both tricks though
I think Ellen is amazing she inspires me every day
pause at 4:02 there's a second envelope under the chair
i think that's just the wood underneath the chair. also it wouldn't make a difference.
No look at his hand at 4:08, he's grabbing something as he's coming down, you can see he kinds struggles to grab it a little
That just looks like the bottom of a chair...
Ryan Clarke actually I think that might be another envelope, that's in case they would've said the words in a different order he would've been like, "i have an envelope under this chair" with the words on that order instead of getting on the chair to grab the other one.
Crispy Surf yah, you're right! the paper is not under the chair but it's on the backrest of the chair, the envelope must have a hole on the back.
If you don’t like spoilers don’t read this.....he grabbed a paper from behind the chair and then pretends to put it
In a pre cut envelope. This piece of paper was put there by someone who wrote down everything the crowd
Said backstage then probably came on pretending to move stuff around, another reason why they were performing the trick away from that area and as for the card trick at 5:30 it’s just a bunch of double lifts (grabbing two cards at once)
I frickin love the eagles
he is so awesome!
Ellen for president 2020!!! She already has a slogan... BE KIND TO ONE ANOTHER - wow Iona what an ideal thought.
It's funny how some are trying to reveal and ruin magic tricks. Come on fellas they are not Wizards/witches of couse it's not real magic. Haha I hate some for being the know-it-all type of viewer, magic tricks are supposed to be enjoyed. 😂😂😂
Kingpin Doyley IKR! High five!
Yes magic tricks are supposed to be enjoyed but I still like to know how they did it.
C foreal like "sorry do you want a cookie bitch?"
Some people enjoy the moment of realization
But I like finding out how they do it....to me it's better than the trick itself 😄
Jon Dorenbos you are the wizard
He really needs to stop doing Red Bull and Cocaine before shows.
Can't people be happy? Or must everyone be depressed like you or something
Hanicser
I'm a big fan of his work, I was just being funny (or trying to be funny in your case). I'm pointing out how nonstop energy he is.
first lastname You say I have no sense of humour,but I think that jokes nowadays simply arent good jokes.People talk complete BS and are like i was joking hahhah funny,oh you dont like my stupid joke,you have no sense of humor idiot
first lastname Its cool if he was joking,I misunderstood him cuz there is a lot of jelaous people who put others down to make themselves better,and we need more people like this guy in ellen who bring their positive and kind nature to the picture,thats all
omg I love this guy he is like so energetic!!😂😂
Did anyone else notice at 2:14 he put the six between the five and four instead of five and seven?
Its funny how easy to do the first trick was. Its just his presentation that really elevates the trick.
Literally right now, I JUST learned how to do the slop shuffle and it's SO convincing
If you pause correctly at 5:44 you can see another Queen of hearts on the bottom of the deck :P
Kushil Gunasinghe yes you can, for those wondering svengali deck their are 26 queen of hearts in it.
Damn he is good
This guys is amazing
Now that’s magic! Wow
Why do they sometimes disable the comments?
Antonia Lehnert it's normally because of the audience, when the camera shows the audience the comments are sometimes enabled, I don't really know to much
Antonia Lehnert Most the time they dont want people revealing the magic trick or figure something out
