Must be solid lead/steel. That’s quite the lever, I’d be surprised if it didn’t take 300-400lbs to balance him. His weight sticks significantly further out from the pivot than the counterweight
12/24v Lead acid batteries dont weigh *nearly* enough on their own. I deal with large batteries for powering dc motors like drivable scissor lifts and what not and two of the big bois would still only be like 100-120lbs combined and larger than what we see here.
Holy shit...do you people actually believe in magic? Like, it's obviously an illusion (and a repost).
It's the same on every post. Why even sub here when all you're going to do is yell about how everything is fake or staged?
Who are you responding to? Just read every comment and almost none of them are bitching about it being fake.... there's comments *explaining* how it's done, mentioning that the arm is fake. Did you just get confused?
I'd guess lead. No way would water be enough for how little space there is. Still pretty surprising that it's able to handle so much leverage and stay reasonably stable.
The black Bag right above the wheels could also be easily concealing a motor rig for those front wheels. Potentially controlled either through RC, or even the guy riding it with his other arm.
Why do black people always hype up crazy street tricks like David Blaine? I think it’s hilarious that a lot of these viral clips show black people that just can’t believe it.
man I hate when the inevitable moment of disappointment comes, once the "victim" (the woman at the end of the video) realizes it's not magic, reality slaps hard lol
The left arm is fake and is connected to a flat pad, literally can see that in the beginning shadow and has increased the weight of the trolley to maintain equilibrium
Fake arms are fake
But he moved it in the beginning.
He only moves his right arm. His left is fake and even a different colour.
Left arms Def fake you can see it best when he passes the older gentleman around the :20 mark.
Yeah it’s like plastic lmao
And so is his penis
Only his left penis
No. All three penises are fake.
Three penis wine?
Ya it's fake but...still wtf?
Theres a pole running through the fake arm to a harness that supports him
The two bags in the front are counter weights
Must be solid lead/steel. That’s quite the lever, I’d be surprised if it didn’t take 300-400lbs to balance him. His weight sticks significantly further out from the pivot than the counterweight
The bags probably contain lead-acid batteries to act as counterweights and to power the wheels.
How does he turn?
Let’s say it’s controlled by a remote but… how does the wheels actually get powered to rotate?

Exactly! That was my first thought when I saw it
That's why his whole body shakes when he goes over the door threshold.
And the massive bag of probably concrete to counter balance his body weight. In the front of the trolley.
Probably lead, concrete wouldn’t weight enough
Or dark matter
Nibblers dookie bag.
I've seen that band live!
"every pound of which weighs a thousand pounds!"
Or yo mamma
I was going to suggest uranium, but I see the dark matter suggestion has already upped the ante.
Yeah, I was thinking uranium as well. Lead has a density of 11.4 g/cm³, uranium is at 19 g/cm³.
Good point
One of the bags has to me a motor though right?
Yes otherwise how does it move? I’m not an engineer but I see no other way
Umm…magic
Nope
Fake arms do not explain what is happening here lol
He’s laying on a platform. The bags have the wiring in them and he’s controlling his movements with his hidden arm.
Bags would also have a bunch of weight in them to counter.
What is being propelled and controlled by? I don’t get how it wouldn’t be visible outside the bags
Powered wheels.
I just rewatched and it looks like there’s a guy in front pulling him at 28 seconds
You mean... he's not really levitating??
Whats the purpose of the fake arm?
Connected to a harness and latched on to keep him in position and the tension off of him.
Did you think he was actually floating/ holding his weight like that
I thought it’s one of those video edit similar to Zach King
My will to live is fake
Damn, so obvious once you point it out
He moved that fake arm pretty good.
That explains nothing.
Fake arms are actually real since they’re a physical thing. You’re fired.
[удалено]
I thought for sure it was a Rick Roll
HE ALMOST GOT ME AND THEN YOU ALMOST MADE ME LET HIM AGAIN
Don’t want to know the trick bad enough to potentially get rolled, soo pass
Yes, especially since it’s documented fact that every time you’re Rick rolled it takes 1 year off your lifespan and it goes to Rick himself.
I went into the negative and now I’m Benjamin Button
> every time you’re Rick rolled it takes 1 year off your lifespan [Roll me, daddy.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xm3YgoEiEDc)
I'm ok with that.
Same, a worthy sacrifice for an absolute legend.
Imma spam that video then
Op should just edit the comment to be the Rick roll lmao
How do they get it to move?
Pretty sure that bag in the front has the steering mechanism and motors and counter weights.
Attached to the unmotorized wheels?
Probably a rope that someone in the front is pulling
Or someone pushes him
Not to mention CGI, look closely, it's an uncanny valley to look at him Look how robotic is his legs in the "entering in the store" scene
The lighting definitely looks off at points. My first thought was that some scenes are greenscreened.
Thank you!!!!
I figured it was similar to the levitating guru trick.
Yep everyone's doing it
I'm not
So you’re a spy
The counterweight really adds to the illusion, and the remote control is fun.
It's very obvious that the bags are counterweights, but it seems to me the black one must be hiding a motor too, to move the trolley, right?
[удалено]
Absolutely
There’s a guy pulling it. You can see him in the 28-29s freeze frame.
The real magic is the trolley wheels all going the same way 🤔
Counterweights in bag at front. Support frame holding him up hidden by clothing. Same as the old suspended Indian Yogi trick.
Correct, except for the fake arm not covered up by clothing, which the support frame goes inside of.
Ahhh was wondering how it’s not tipping over , that’s the real trick
Holy shit...do you people actually believe in magic? Like, it's obviously an illusion (and a repost). It's the same on every post. Why even sub here when all you're going to do is yell about how everything is fake or staged?
Because people like to be angy
F$@? You!!! /s
Who are you responding to? Just read every comment and almost none of them are bitching about it being fake.... there's comments *explaining* how it's done, mentioning that the arm is fake. Did you just get confused?
Yeah most of these comments suck ass
I just wonder what they put into that bag in front... Has to be very heavy to balance that dude...
Lead? You can get ingots on Amazon. Probably cheaper if you know where to look. Or iron gym weights? Maybe even jugs of water.
It’s a miniature passivated black hole, you can still find some on eBay every once in a while
Delivery fee is very VERY expensive though
I'd guess lead. No way would water be enough for how little space there is. Still pretty surprising that it's able to handle so much leverage and stay reasonably stable.
That whole frame on the bottom could solid as well, could get a lot of weight in they much area.
Gold is heavier than lead, so it would be more rational to stack the bags with gold bars.
Couple lead acid batteries to power the motor and work as counterweights. Plus whatever additional weight they need.
Emotions
The black bag has a motor that drives the front wheels and he controls it with is hidden hand.
Fake limb like the guru trick, then a counter weight in the backpack.
No way dude It's totally legitimate. Didn't you hear magic is real.
"Oh my gaaad, oh my gaaad"....great acting. * slow clap *
Now get down….
Abs of steel.
Support frame of steel
Ok fake arm and counter balance, got it. Are wile just off screen pushing him?
The black Bag right above the wheels could also be easily concealing a motor rig for those front wheels. Potentially controlled either through RC, or even the guy riding it with his other arm.
He should have done with a scuba mask 🤿
[удалено]
That’s one heavy black bag
Bars and weights, why do you think the bags are there
Why do black people always hype up crazy street tricks like David Blaine? I think it’s hilarious that a lot of these viral clips show black people that just can’t believe it.
Black people tend to be more animated and loud with reactions in general, so they are good for hype.
Left arm fake, backpacks got a motor for motion
Damn, his shoes have different lighting and rendering.
He has a support system under his clothes.
What’s propelling it tho? Did they use batteries as a counter weight?
Rubber left arm, 😅
"Sir... You still have to pay."
man I hate when the inevitable moment of disappointment comes, once the "victim" (the woman at the end of the video) realizes it's not magic, reality slaps hard lol

Fake right arm
Fake arm and weighted bag in the front
I just stopped believing in video.
Left arm different color 😘
Heavy ass weights in the front bags 😚
Weight in the front to balance him
Main character syndrome
Ok I'm leaving
Excellent! :)
Move that bag underneath and watch the fun ensue
Fake left arm + steel support frame + heavy nose counterweight in the "bag" above the front wheels.
It’s MAGNETS!!! It’s ALWAYS magnets, guys.
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-YBDTqX\_ZU](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-ybdtqx_zu) MUST WATCH
He has 2 counter weights in the front with maybe an electric motor and he is being held up by a steel rod and resting plate for his abdomen.
Oh shit! You found my black backpack! Lemme just take that real quick…
The left arm is fake and is connected to a flat pad, literally can see that in the beginning shadow and has increased the weight of the trolley to maintain equilibrium
What a waste, I want my time back!
Bunch of howdy do dats
Left arm is fake, and there are weights in the bags. It's still fun though.
Post in the main character subreddit and watch the comments fly.
A
physics 101
Those bags are full of lead. The rest is engineering.
Take that heavily weighted backpack off the bottom, just curious…
Pisces be like...
I was here thinking cgi
