  • some videos are cut, and the pencil was replaced as he lays it back, he holds it out of the frame while putting back, why does he move his arm that far of the screen? The tricks are simple. Everybody can do it, but he has good ideas ;)

  • nice check out my tricks

  • Your really good, I like the way you present your tricks too.. its original

  • u cheating cuz first u had a little pencil the with u hands u change and u get the other 1...idiot

  • thats not magic.. thats garbage... i can do that...

  • He Extends a lot his arms, and then he grabs the big pencil.. cool trick anyways

  • the first pensils erasor is white the other one's is pink

  • No actually the erasers were both the same color and size

  • he extends his arm to far so he switched it i caught it the first time without reading comments

  • Pretty basic, when he first picks up the pencil to "write" he switches it off camera, when hes finished "writing and places it back on the table he once again switches it off camera. Very cute trick, but cmon!!!

  • when it turned big and was laying in front of the camera, it was exactly same size as it was when it was first laying in front of the camera

  • Your all wrong. The pencil grew up.

  • no look again ok see the pencil first the eraser is white then its pink

  • he change it when he is putting down the pencil.. lol

  • Not me now I know what to look for in his tricks everytime his hand goes off screen he makes switches

  • yep

  • there's a shadow on his shirt when he switched the pencil.....lame.

  • What the fuck about people bitching how they figure out a trick after watching it dozen of times.

    ITS A TRICK morons, IT IS ALL ABOUT HOW IT CATCHS YOU OFF GUARD THE FIRST TIME THAT IMPORTANT.

  • just like with the umbrella and the cube and ball!!

  • he didnt write that.. its all prepared lol

  • yeah its like those dinosaurs that you put in water and watch them grow before our eyes, he obviously learned how to speed time up without us detecting it, having a glass of water off to one side where the cam cant see it put the small version of the pencil in the water, leaped into time bout 1 hour and and viola!!! simple...

  • He switch it...

  • nice

  • cool video.

  • all fake watch between 00:30 to 00:40 u can see a shadow of a guy helping him to put the pencil at his left arm very fast plus he also takes his all his arm off the scrren so the guy can put the big pencil for him

  • when he goes to put the pencil down after he writes he takes his hand out of the frame he probly grabs another pencil or something

  • he obviously has one of those pencils which grows

  • Why is evryone 'explaining' the trick.. Ofcourse.. the trick is easy.. don't get why this guy is getting so muchs props

  • i know how he does all his tricks

  • Then you are the best, nobody knows ;)

  • Ahahahaha i watched that shit like 3 times and i still didnt see what was so magical about it...i guess i should've watched the whole thing...

  • no comment

  • i know how he did that hahaha

  • clever tricks but looks were is hand is at 0:35-0:36 notice how much smaller his hand gets or who ever hand that is

  • lol caught me off gurad at first but then i was paying attention to the technique. Clever.

  • no coments

  • You rock dude. Forget what I have said in the past. Your awesome! Clever.

  • wow!!! great man!!! i love it!! do it more!!

  • thats easy when u moved it out of the veiw of the camera u swiched pencils. i had to watch it twice to figure it out, it was a funny trick !u roc!

  • When the pencil is close to the camera the first time it's "grown" then when he's holding it, it's the normal size. Then goes back to the "grown" pencil.

  • not so good.. he moves his arm so far from the place the pencil is... that pencil was already there.. another person put that big pencil took out and then put back there. then he finally get it... -.-

  • He has help. someone takes the oversized pencil off the table as he begins to write...then they hand it back when he finishes writing

  • Its easy to know how he did that but its just awsome !! The illusion worked very well.

  • i seen how he did it, u cud see he hasd someone by him and he swaps the pencils

  • Please : more magic tricks with your hot asian friend !!

  • the big pencil is on the table to begin with.

  • so saw it.

  • how did Marco tempest do that??? i tryed with my camera phone.

  • he left the screen, it was amazing how he did that, very cool, even though it was a big trick

    thank you, respect the Elder

  • i so the guy too the one on the shadow

  • Its very obvious how hez done that..other tricks were ok..

  • fake !!

    have a "cut" on the video... after he write in the paper...

  • Why does the eraser change sizes?!?! THAT'S AMAZING. Very good stage hands btw.

  • i like it

  • easy, but use the same collour at the end of the pencil netxt time :)

  • easy to pick up...on the 2nd time, but entertaining!

  • good trick.but...

  • yah, this was his worst one, sorry marco

  • very nice, i think the cut is at 27 sec

  • You can tell he passed switched the big one for the small one with somebody off camera.

    I still like your enthusiasm though, keep it up! ^_^

  • I didn't know how you did it at frst, but I figured it out the second time, because I wanted to watch one part again. Thats really awesome though.

  • Just Great! Five stars.

    I put my video as a video response. Can You do as I do with the pencil?

  • nice! to know its really bogus watch closely between 0:35 to 0:36. You'll see. ;)

  • this one was easy!!!

  • Saw it the first time how u did it :) If you didnt notice he shows the other side of the paper not the side where he wrote to. Pay attention to the moment he puts the pen away, the pen goes outside the screen and you can easily see how marco swaps it to the bigger pen. :) Hey marco stop doing these too obivious tricks ^^ More tricks like the run by car & brooklyn bridge/Tokyo tower.

  • fun to work out how he did it

  • you guys dont find out how it happens cause ur not really looking for it... you want to be fooled... that is from the movie the prestige and it is true... just look at his hand when he is approaching the pencil... he dont want his hand seen by cam because we will find out that the pencil is already big... then guess what....

  • you always see the big pencil.. when he goes to grab the small pencil the other partner picks up the big pencil..

    very nice.

  • I see how you did it.

  • haha i thought it was real i like his acent

  • i think i kno how you did it, but its still awesome

  • it is not a matter of if you can figure it out; nobody asked you!

    Even if you know the secret it takes talen, skill and YEARS of practice to execute any illusion with accuracy and split second timing!

    Nobody cries "ohh, ooh I know how it's done!" when watching Michael Jordan dunk from the foul line.

    TOO MANY HATERS!

    Marco ROCKS!

  • pretty easy to find out but good work =)

  • You can actually see the switch of pencils when you put it down the second time around - someone by ur side hands it to you. The fraction of hesitation gives it away. I'll give you 5 for trying.

  • nice

  • :) this one's good, easy trick but he pulls it off very stealthily

  • mmm...

  • I love what you do Mr, Tempest Its lots of fun, but "I see the 2 different color" hoho hahaha hoho hahaha mini me.

  • Gd video, if only most videos on here are as gd as your magic tricks. OK they may be obvious to some people, but I can't be arsed to try to work it out, so to me it just looks gd lol

  • oh.... finally figured it out...

    he grabbed the pencil from behind the camera, or off the side, because his hand goes out of the frame, and another person grabbed the big pencil off the table,

    then after he "writes" on the index card, he threw away the pencil, and the person puts the big pencil back

    oh, and he had already written " Did you see it grow?" on the index card, because he only showed one side of it before he starts writing, and the side he wrote on wasn't the side that was shown.

    :D

  • Soo lame

  • nice trick :D very talented

  • k this one wasnt hard to figure out.

    the pencil was always big its a perspective thing.. cool trick tho

  • i dint notice it the first time! nice one!

  • wait if these ARENT camera tricks, then what are they?

  • how the hell do you do that its amazing

  • nice

  • You're so great at this stuff, but I'd like it more if it was something where I couldn't just think "Well what did he do when his hand went out of the shot?" Love what you do though

  • i love the way his hand goes out of the pan of the camera for just long enough, great trick

  • lol the first time i wasent watching your left hand as you set the pencil down the second time i was lol but i enjoyed it

  • look at the shado ,,

  • Would have been better if we couldn't see the shadow of the dude that was switching the pencils out. Nice trick though.

  • Good entertainment mate... keep it coming.. ;)

  • good job, but the umbrella solution also gives this one away

  • lol, not too hard, but still cool.

  • very well done...it did take me twice...his use of perspective is good.

  • brujo !!!!

  • LMAO WTF

  • i like this ;]

  • easy

  • no phone i know of has that kind of audio or video quality and how is it focused so good when most phones are hard as hell to get framed around something unless you are right behind them?

  • i think than you like your cellphone XD

  • hey you guys were supposed to appreciate how's he's able to pull it off not hack it. Everyone knows how it's done, so please, just sit back and enjoy and compliment.

    stop posting "i know how it's done" "i know i know i know"

  • yea you can tell. But you have to watch it twice. It's a lot of fun to try to figure out how he does this stuff!

  • Yeahh...its cool to try to figure out how he does it.

  • damn, what kind of phone do you use..that's good quality

  • he's using the nokia n73.. the camera on that phone is brilliant... although only 3.2 megapixel.. its has some of the best quality.!!

  • this one is a bit obvious but the others are well good!

    x

  • yes, little obvious on this one..but the others are great. very entertaining.

  • He is very entertaining and should have his own show on tv.

  • first time i didn't realise, very good trick :)

  • Quiete cool trick but...

    The ruber of the big pencil is red. The little pencil has a white one ;-)

  • lol? noob

  • it was very good, it was'nt very difficult to find out how you did it, but i like it

  • how did he do his trick?

  • It's the same thing exact thing as the umbrella trick!

  • Marco, this is hardly magic, remember that your audience is watching on video, they can pause at any moment , so I guess this says that slight-of-hand is not for the video medium. By the way: casino rule is that the cards never leave the table. In your case: leave the pencil in frame at all times, please...

  • haha neat idea

  • Its so funny you dont even rite anything on the paper you simply flip the card over. lol

  • simple man there r two pencil.. smaller one with which he wrights has got which colour eracer... bigger one has got red eracer.. observe carefully

  • yea it was obvious but it was cool, rock on!

  • lol i get it now lol

  • worst thing about camara phones they don't see everything ;)

  • seriously everyone knows how its done... but the amazing thing is that its hard to find new tricks... so i think its nice trick..

  • after greeting please can you tell me how this trick is done . I am begging you please teach me how its done.

  • that was crap

  • lol...he just hang them on something when his fingers where out of view

  • that's beautiful man :)

    looking forward for your futur works

  • simple! I like it!

  • AttPro: you had to ruin it for everyone tht was cool untill i read the coments

  • so obvious but quite funny first time

  • stupid trick if you see it twice you will see the trick

  • you're funny.

  • he doesnt write anything eaither lol its already there

  • Dude this is not really magic cos u couldn't do it to a person

  • bad one...

  • ohhhhh.... i get it .... i think...

    anyways dat wuz so kool....

    keep up the good work!

  • lol bit simple

    but fairly amusing so wahey!

  • doh.. would have been less obvious if you didnt show the shadow of the person swapping the pencil when you went to put it down :P

    very nice though :)

  • Lol funny how no one noticed that the side of the index card that he scribbled on wasn't the side that said "Did you see it grow".

  • can you say cheeze!!!!

  • Wish I had a job srewing around with my cell phone all f*&king day.

  • no matter how obvious it was... or how its done he does it so smoothly and nicely^_^ if i could do any simple trik on my phone like he does it, id be happy enuf:D

  • cool :)

  • It was two hands, if you notice he grabs the pencil that he is using from behind the camera. Another person had actually grabbed the "grown" pencil off the table. Then the other person puts it back on the table and then the pencil he used is probably just tossed aside. So it appears that he grabbed a small one and put down a larger one.

  • yes, exactly.

  • I saw dat to

  • stop showing off that you found out how he did it -_- its freaking annoying.

  • Yeah ur right i noticed the other person shadow lol.u got good eye.

  • you are so funny!

  • no if you look real close that is not his arm putting down the pencil as you can see that when he reaches out side the camra view another person puts down the big pencil to make it look like he put the pencil down and thats the big pencil at the start

  • no one likes it when someone spoils a trick i hate it dont do it

  • I liked it.  Simple, clean.

  • ...

  • I saw when he did the exchange *nod nod* The only one so far that's been completely flawless has been the umbrella one <3

  • more practice to make it perpect.can u share me some of ur magic trick.

  • Weill probably know how he did it after 30 hours watching this clip, awsome vid though.

  • i saw it grow at 0:36

  • Had me going there for a while!!! nice trick!

  • if u did tricks to actual people on the street,and get their reactions then it would be twice as good, half the fun is in the trick, the other lies with the audiencs' reactions

  • I have to agree, although your tricks are pure genius, this one was abit obvious, but great trick anyway. Just thinking this stuff up is a telent in itself.

  • woa

  • wow, you write very fast!

  • I enjoyed the video Marco. Looking at the comments i suppose it's true that magic is best to perform for those who try not to find the trick behind everything. Keep at it:)

  • soo lame u can see he puts his hand out of camera ovausly two people standing there swapping pens.. .

  • obvious

  • Yeah most of the stuff is done with another person just switching sutff off camera.

  • ich weiß den trick !! i know it ! er hat den, als er ihn nach dem schreiben wieder ginlegte, doch außerhalb der kamera gehalten kurz! Und da hat der schatten (muhaha) den stift gegen den großen ausgetauscht!!!

  • that one was pretty obvious even i got it :p still great though

  • dude it looks like someone swiched the small pencil for the big one when it went off screen.

  • Look hard and you can see the shadow of another person swichin the pencils

  • 0:19 when he puts the camera down, the big one is already there.

    0:26 when his hands go outta sight, he switch the big one (that was already there) for the lil' one.

    nice perspective trick.

  • Great job. I immediately saw the trick, when u put ur pencil back on the table :p... Nobody reaches out so far when u put back a pencil :P. But it's still a good job. :P

  • for the 58 seconds of my time that it cost me to watch this, thank you Marco, it was a good investment. Magic on dude.

  • A little obvious, but nice anyway

  • he never changes pencils,what he does is he shows the small pencil first then he pretends to put it back, but really is the giant pencil, then he pretends to pick it up again but he doesn't. and he never writes anything.

  • Although some of your illusions are easy to see through, as least you DO something that is interesting, unlike the masses who just sit and bitch about how they saw through your trick and thought it was boring. Your illusions give me ideas on what to do next time I can entertain someone with a camera. . .

  • nice trick. either you paused it and switched your pens when it went off screen or someone on the side took it and swithed it becuase you hands always went off screen when you went for the pen and brought it back towards you...normal eyes wouldn't notice but none the less that was a great trick

  • its an optical illusion, its not magic. thats why its cool

  • Different Pencils :)

  • yea get rubbers that are the same colour next time ^_^. nice stuff tho

  • you can sadly see the shadow of the person who puts the large pensil, on his shirt. Good trick, otherwise.

  • you switch pencils off camera,you need to work on that sir.same with the coin,ball trick.

  • Exactly word by word what i was goin to say...

    :-)
