I love how Sam is the resident wiseman and wizard, and yet he is always so taken by these Jake Bond classics. Wren’s reaction was one of my favourites though 😂💜
@@DarthBiomech LOL his brief "look away" couldn't have been timed more perfectly in this. @edgedg look up corridor crew ALL the magic/magician episodes, muffyncrumbs is right. Reminded me of the magic trick with the monkey video
I think the reason Wren's worked so well is because another car drove behind the van like 2 seconds afterward making it feel like more genuine traffic. Having another car following every time as misdirection would've helped sell the other shots even more. Either way that was AMAZING. I was laughing my ass off haha love these videos guys, Keep letting Jake be Jake.
It was also just good timing. Jake started moving at the perfect time in that shot, whereas he started to jump a little too early in some and we could still see him
This series needs to conclude with Jake being chased by the whole office in a nerf hunt and him getting a week to set up elaborate vanishing acts to turn the tables on his hunters.
In the movie In the Line Of Fire they have John Malkovich disappear when a bus drives by. If you look closely under the bus you can see his feet running along with it.
@Jaap Scherphuis so funny you mentioned this. I just saw that movie for the first time last weekend. And I noticed the feet too lol. I figured maybe they left it in the movie to make him vanishing seem more realistic
I think what makes this work the best is when there were multiple vehicles, it looked less staged. Also, having them at a higher incline so they couldn't see feet under the van would make it work even better.
Wren is such a golden retriever. He gives the best, most excited reactions to everything. I don't care if it's over the top, or sometimes exaggerated. It's still fun to watch him experience everything with such wonder
@@jocelyndeguise you say it's "always overdone", but if he's always like that, wouldn't he be... always like that? How would you know if he's faking it unless you know him in real life? In fact, I know several people in real life that are as excitable as Wren, and they're never on camera.
To be more inexplicable, you should be moving in the opposite direction of the trajectory of the van. 6:59 Like if you are standing in the road when they spot you, and then turn toward the direction the traffic is coming from to walk back toward the sidewalk as if the get out of the path of the van. Looking over your right shoulder as the van passes just behind you moving left. Or not looking at all. You apparently VANISH like a super spy (actually falling backwards onto some cushions in the van.) And the REAL Jason Bourn could do it with a short little golf cart.
It also seemed (at least on the first watch) like they should have had him standing on a curb so that his feet wouldn’t have been visible under the van so they wouldn’t have needed the mat hanging out the door of the van to conceal his feet.
yes. In the original clip from the jb film he is moving the opposite direction of the tuktuk. its a small difference but i think its significant as you say.
@@OnTheShangriLa I agree, it's small...but it makes the viewer expect you to continue traveling in that direction. A secondary visual obstruction (like the pedestrians perfectly timed to cross in the foreground in the Bourne movie at the exact moment he subverts expectations) also makes a big difference.
It is common at least in Citites, but even outside big cities it's common to see Homeless holding signs for money too, My Parents always told me when I was growing up to never give them any because they'll just buy drugs with it. Which not sure if that's true but to be honest I know it's fucked up and definitely makes me not a bad person but my first thought when I see them always does jump straight to assuming they're junkies even though logically I know not everyone in need is dealing with, it's just that's where my mind goes and so I automatically just ignore the Homeless and pay no attention
I'm a little jealous of the few moments of surrealism this would cause. That's just a special thing you don't actually get to experience in normal life. I feel like I'd understand what happened almost immediately, but that wouldn't make it any less fun. This is definitely my favorite Jake prank :P Also, the little turn away from the van right before it passes by definitely sells the stunt way better. Nicely done!
This is one of the funniest videos y'all ever put together. I'm gonna be honest i thought it was gonna be lame but legit had me laughing the whole time. This was so good.
7:16 should have used the line from the film. "I need to speak to X" "What if I can't find him?" "That's easy, he's standing right next to you." 😂 Would have really freaked them out!
Lovely reaction from Wren and Jan - like an inner child, not calling right away what has happened, but a pure amazement how cool and slick it looked. Like Wren said, it feels a bit special to be able to witness such a trick in real life after so many (often cheesy) scenes in action movies :) Reactions for Nick emerging from the tent were great too :D You'll need to change the formula, seems that all the crew is already used to Jake doing these superhero/prank tricks and I can't blame them ;)
This one of your best performances yet!! The fact some people turned around when the van went by, so you just vanished, and they went to check the area was pure gold!!
Wow these looked good! But at 7:44, when you started walking from left to right as the van moved right to left THAT disappear and one that followed really looked the best!
I never noticed the shoulder and the shuffling feet! But that just makes me appreciate how they went through the trouble of doing it for real. This can also be done with the proper SUV. Hop on the side secret service style.
The scene would be more intense if he just stood there menacingly, feet apart, and avoided walking/turning around before the van comes along. But please, more "Jake'on Bourne"! I love it!
If you pulled the blanket up as soon as he got into the van, it would have worked perfectly. The times when he turns around really conceal him running to get into the van. If you could pull it off with the van going twice as fast, no one would think he could have gotten into the van. Plus, if there wasn't anything whatsoever he could have been hiding behind, it would be an even better illusion.
I've done this with my friends before, hide besides a moving van (slow moving van) when we were crossing and I crossed first then pop up 30ft along the road. The look on their face is priceless
I’ve done it too with a Transit, then I sneaked around the park they were sitting next to, then crept up behind them and made them jump so bad, it felt so cool
Sam and Wren's reactions were pretty great. Especially Wren who always reacts in such over-the-top ways. Sam only worked because he looked away at the crucial instant. The hilarious part was that shot at 7:37 where you can see Jake's feet tipitap behind the van. I think the set-up would've worked better if the sidewalk was taller, as to not need the tarp coming down from the van, so that you would never see Jake's feet while the van was driving in front of him.
0:29 I like that there's an auto time stamp tool in comments on RUclips now. It only took since 2005 when I was manually timestamping comments and checking the time then going back to it etc..... 😂 Pretty sure back in the original days of RUclips actually writing the timestamp didn't used to produce a little link that you could click that would move the video to that time!
The anticipation is really good but the climax can be a lot better. Just imagine if there're multiple vans/cars passing through and for the first few vehicles going pass him you can still see him just standing before he vanished to thin air when the last van passed Jake's position.
As always, Wren is the one that gives the most satisfaction. Jan is a close second though, that reaction was awesome! Side note, it's kinda sad that people living in LA don't even notice a tent on the sidewalk
Something you guys missed out on apparently is that Matt Damon didn't jump onto the car or anything like that in Bourne, you can clearly see his feet moving as he runs alongside the car and even stands up at the end of the shot.
This was so hilarious and exhilarating to watch! Every time Jake disappeared and Bourne soundtrack "reeeeeeee" sound played 😂 And I absolutely share Wren's excitement, his reactions are always the best 🙂
The sad part about this video is that none of the crew reacted to the tent in the street, I'm guessing they see homeless so often they've almost become blind to it.
i think one way to improve this is having Jake walking in the opposite direction of the van. so the viewer's eyes naturally follows him in that direction while expecting to see him reappear after the van passes but he's not there. that's the key of the jason bourne disappearance scene.
Great video you guys! As usual! Love the concept. Just one note: Honestly the test runs looked way better and more believable than the initial real runs. The fact that Jake starts walking in the same direction the van is driving makes his jump into the van seem WAY more obvious. It works way better in the later runs with Austin for example when Jake turns the opposite direction the van is driving before jumping in. The effect might sell even better if Jake isn’t moving AT ALL before the van drives by.
It's kinda sad that they're all so used to it at that point that they immediately expect some crazy stuff to happen. You need to prank someone outside the crew!
Next time you do it you should mount a mirror on the underside of the vehicle at a 45° angle so that it reflects the road and you can't see the feet of the person behind it. Would be interested to see how much cleaner that makes the shot. 👌👌
I think this video just elevated the whole series. Just think about how many practical shots you could do in front of people to confuse the hell out of them. This could become a much bigger project IMO. I’d love to see the shot from The Matrix at the end where Neo flies away. Use that bridge with some rigging from a distance and have him bend down and then put some exploding dust bags on his shoes and have the dust shoot out and away right after the rig starts hurling him up and over the top of the bridge. Tip: do it on an overcast day if possible and paint the rigging light gray and put it on a swing arm to quickly get it out of the way. Or have them come walking up underneath the other side of the bridge and have it hanging way off the side and then quickly hoist him up and then swing it out of the way so when they run over they don’t see any rigging.
I love Jake's sleight of hand videos! I get the biggest kick out of him doing deep dives into the psychology behind these moves as well as everybody's reactions when he blows their minds with them.
We need more videos like these, please make more of these they are so cool! In my opinion I find the reaction ones kinda boring, but when ones like these come out, they always wow me!
@@linecraftman3907 Ikr, people can actually notice the little things. I feel like something new and shocking aka drama is what people are into and want to see. I mean if there were no drama, what would the point of living be? Humans a born to find and deal with drama, that's why we have to get a job, eat, go to the toilet, argue with others. Life is basically one big competition, although it's like chess, no matter where you come from, everyone is balanced and equal. I am sure you can argue back and you probably will, but that just proves my point. People love drama. We dig it.
@@linecraftman3907 Oh. Well I wasn't really specifying hiding and tricks. I was actually talking about the fact that it is new and original. Like they could test theories of different movie stunts irl to see if they are possible like myth busting.
Best part of the video is noticing that Jason was just hiding behind the little truck. You can even see the shadow of his feet running next to it. Now I'll go watch the movie just to see if I can spot every time he disappears.
I think this works best when there is a natural flow of cars driving by, f.e. at 07:00 where behind the pick up van there is another. Just elevates the credibility in general.
Since the corridor guys are friends with Gavin Free, my headcanon is that someone listened to last Wednesday's episode of F**kface where he brought it up and decided to make a video about it cause the timing is impeccable
The movement walking before the van blocks their view gives it away. If he was standing still until the last moment and jumped in then it might work better. Once he starts moving you're already expecting him to leave so him disappearing is less of a surprise and your brains already figured it out. If you're not expecting them to leave at all and they're suddenly out of view your brain might lad behind from the shock and be more mesmerized. Still great work, great video, and a very funny prank! :D
The illusion is made more impactful in the movie by the fact that he starts walking in the opposite direction before the vehicle drives by.
Yea, your head and eyes are going to waste a second or two continuing tracking Bourne in the direction he was going.
And the speed of his gait too..
This also would keep his feet in the shadow, not in the light like when he was walking with it.
It'd be hilarious if the little truck just stopped like 4 feet after he hopped on it. Master escape plan: foiled!
@@TheRealAlpha2 "HEY! What you doin' there?! Get off my truck, weirdo!" :)
Wren's reactions will always be the best
Sidenote: it's actually wholesome to see how excited they were at Jake just being there
Jake has just developed a talent for vanishing at this point I swear
They think it's cool. Unless he does it while they're all out and the check comes.
You mean... Jakesin?!
I think my dad taught him
He did train under Batman the Master of Stealth and Illusion
I can't tell you how much I love these videos.
I love how Sam is the resident wiseman and wizard, and yet he is always so taken by these Jake Bond classics. Wren’s reaction was one of my favourites though 😂💜
Wren is easy to impress, and it honestly just makes his reactions that much more entertaining.
The magic trick episode with Wren is incredible
I can't find the other episodes of this kind. There seems to be no playlist.
IDK, his reaction in the Batman one was clearly a fake "ok just gotta roll with it I guess", but here it feels genuine.
@@DarthBiomech LOL his brief "look away" couldn't have been timed more perfectly in this.
@edgedg look up corridor crew ALL the magic/magician episodes, muffyncrumbs is right. Reminded me of the magic trick with the monkey video
I think the reason Wren's worked so well is because another car drove behind the van like 2 seconds afterward making it feel like more genuine traffic.

@@shaneh7519 definitely! A Lightning in a Bottle moment haha
fancy seeing you here 🤔
@@iLLFaith 😂
I was hoping that one of those takes, the van itself would be misdirection and he'd just be standing behind the cement pillar XD
10:09 I love to see that even after all these years Jan still uses the 3d printed finger Wren made for him. It just absolutely warms my heart.
Has it really been that long already?
Yo that felt like 3 months ago
oh that's cool
That finger is in another color. Jan has lots of fingers now
That actually got him into 3d printing. And now he has all sorts.
This series needs to conclude with Jake being chased by the whole office in a nerf hunt and him getting a week to set up elaborate vanishing acts to turn the tables on his hunters.
"Hi... Jake here... it's time to put all my learned skills to the test..."
Some traitors among the office secretly working with Jake would also be interesting.
@@David-um8tb Some would have to for it too actually work
I really would like for him to incorporate these vanishing acts with the John Wick disappearing reappearing from the dark act on Chapter 3
Thsi series needs to never conclude.
Sam looking away right as the van goes past and missing the entire trick is just peak Sam lmao. He really misdirected himself
The running feet visible under the van is funny af 😂
at least they put there a small black curtain
@@rudolffatransky581 It's just cuz Nick is sitting in a tent, the people standing up couldn't see it
In the movie In the Line Of Fire they have John Malkovich disappear when a bus drives by. If you look closely under the bus you can see his feet running along with it.
They should have filmed it downwards at an angle, where the van is at a lower elevation
@Jaap Scherphuis so funny you mentioned this. I just saw that movie for the first time last weekend. And I noticed the feet too lol. I figured maybe they left it in the movie to make him vanishing seem more realistic
Jake's creativity is SOO underrated we NEED MORE OF THESE
It's absurd that a tent just sitting on the street doesn't even look out of place.
@@samholdsworth420I think that was his point.
@@samholdsworth420 Sucks to say but theres a lot more cities than just LA where this wouldn''t be out of place.
Land of the free... to sleep on the streets.
Same in Berlin
@@Xfacta12482 And all of them run by Republicans.
Oh wait.
I don't know why but Jake gets me so freaking hype, his videos are my favorite!
I think what makes this work the best is when there were multiple vehicles, it looked less staged. Also, having them at a higher incline so they couldn't see feet under the van would make it work even better.
Also he needs to be already walking.. preferably in the opposite direction to the van..
The feet are visible from camera point of view which is lower that the onlookers.
The timing of Jake turning around was also important - it looked much better when he seemed to walk away from the van.
Yeah, the second vehicle immediately following really help selling it better
Totally fcing agree 🔥🔥🔥
6:58 the 2nd car sold it even more since it made it appear that the van couldn't wait for the timing
It's insane how normal a tent on the sidewalk is over there.
That's actually where Nick lives. He's so dedicated to Corridor. He's never late to work.
@@SethVoid vagabond nick

I love these episodes when Jake tries to fool them
With all his training of vanishing I honestly fear Jake, he could be the most dangerous person alive today
It's so common for a tent to be on the street outside their studio that Nick is completely hidden...

I was thinking if people saw a tent on the street here in Eastern Europe, it would raise a few eyebrows, but it just blends in in the US
Specifically LA and other large cities (Austin, NY, Seattle, etc.). Where I live (rural Midwest) a tent on the street is also suspicious.
Yeah, don't put this on the US. This is in major cities in the US, primarily mostly-liberal cities.
Only time you see tents in the streets around here is in the run-up to July 4th and they're filled with fireworks.
Depends on what part of the US. Where I live a tent on the side of the street would certainly raise eyebrows
Vancouver, Canada. They’re a regular site downtown here as well.

The fact that you can hide in a tent in the middle of the street in LA, and not be suspicious speaks volumes 😂
😢

gotta love Wren's reactions, so wholesome.

This was really good and the black cloth hanging under the van helped hide the feet perfectly. Another hilarious video. Well done
0:18 you can see running with the car
I think Jake liked all the farewell wishes when he vanished to Texas, and now he’s just milking that feeling by vanishing over and over again.
0:40 omg you can see the shadow of his feet as well
I love that no matter who they did it to, they were thoroughly entertained.
These kind of videos with Jake have become one of my favorite things CC is doing right now
The sad part about this video is that none of the crew reacted to the tent in the street, I'm guessing they see homeless so often they've almost become blind to it.

I love Jake's sleight of hand videos! I get the biggest kick out of him doing deep dives into the psychology behind these moves as well as everybody's reactions when he blows their minds with them.
I love how the director chose to have the two people walking passed to make it seem like a camera wipe. Very fun shot.
We need more videos like these, please make more of these they are so cool! In my opinion I find the reaction ones kinda boring, but when ones like these come out, they always wow me!
Well if you do it too often people are gonna catch on lol
@@linecraftman3907 Ikr, people can actually notice the little things. I feel like something new and shocking aka drama is what people are into and want to see. I mean if there were no drama, what would the point of living be? Humans a born to find and deal with drama, that's why we have to get a job, eat, go to the toilet, argue with others. Life is basically one big competition, although it's like chess, no matter where you come from, everyone is balanced and equal. I am sure you can argue back and you probably will, but that just proves my point. People love drama. We dig it.
@@HypeRatt i mean if you were getting tricked everyday, surely you would start suspecting unlikely outcomes in ordinary things
thats what i meant
@@linecraftman3907 Oh. Well I wasn't really specifying hiding and tricks. I was actually talking about the fact that it is new and original. Like they could test theories of different movie stunts irl to see if they are possible like myth busting.
Well... Wren never disappoints 😂
Best part of the video is noticing that Jason was just hiding behind the little truck. You can even see the shadow of his feet running next to it. Now I'll go watch the movie just to see if I can spot every time he disappears.
When he starts walking BEFORE the car covers him, that makes it less cool, to be honest.
These videos of Jake are quickly becoming my favourite!
Listeners of the F**k Face pod?
There's no chance it's a coincidence
I think this works best when there is a natural flow of cars driving by, f.e. at 07:00 where behind the pick up van there is another. Just elevates the credibility in general.
Since the corridor guys are friends with Gavin Free, my headcanon is that someone listened to last Wednesday's episode of F**kface where he brought it up and decided to make a video about it cause the timing is impeccable
I ehvent seen the video yet, but I know how it goes.
But I love how this is becoming a series with Jake its so much fun
The movement walking before the van blocks their view gives it away. If he was standing still until the last moment and jumped in then it might work better. Once he starts moving you're already expecting him to leave so him disappearing is less of a surprise and your brains already figured it out. If you're not expecting them to leave at all and they're suddenly out of view your brain might lad behind from the shock and be more mesmerized.
Still great work, great video, and a very funny prank! :D
Wren's reaction was priceless!
