There is something up with this video?

or is it supposed to be all slow, and laggy?

Never mind it was a background virus scan on my box.

Blown, my mind is.

At about ~10 seconds in, you can clearly see the red ball in his left hand. Then it disappears. What happened? Doesn't look like normal sleight of hand to me...

It's probably just an edit. The middle cup changes to a sticker with a sticker ball under it too, so I'm pretty sure this has to have been edited together. Fun though!

God? Yeah, I'd like to report a bug.

Am I completely missing something? What is so amazing?

Hooray for stop motion and camera's perspective..

Great editing, for one thing.

Also, I love how the magician dude wear a top-hat, even though it's not in the scene. What a classy fellow.

Meh, add me to list of shruggers.

It starts simple, and ends simple. Is this video really that spectacular with todays video-editting technology?

^It's not about spectacular video editing. This is not a CGI tour-de-force.

It's a piece of art.

Art is subjective, but IMHO this is a really nice creation because of the feelings it evokes in the viewer.

I get the art aspect. It's a nice-looking piece. But I don't get where the mind-blowing stuff is coming from.

Well, the background isnt really how it appears, its made up of carefully positioned stands - for instance the radio is actually made up of two halfs which when the camera is positioned in front you cannot tell. The 'peeling back' of reality to reveal the jumble of different layers starts with the middle cup, which wasnt really a cup at all but rather a large sticker on the table in the last 'revealing' shot, then pans to the side where you see all the stands that made up the illusion of a room behind. Its a neat trick but having said that, I wouldnt say its awesome.
