  • nice

  • What's the trick? They made a nest for birds and they are flying out of it?

  • Well the 1 way exiting but total lack of entering pidgins leads me to think much much simpler. Big ass cage of pidgins inside the building, small concealed tunnel from the room to the billboard, and a minimum wage slave or broke ass magician slowly releasing pidgins one at a time. To impressive this would need 2 major things, 1. A full 360 shot of the sign, and 2. a scale of timeframe. Constant pidgins for a minute, boring, a month, impressive.

  • Illusion, Michael. A trick is something a whore does for money.

  • @BigTimStrange or cocaine

  • What's the song?

  • The hat is full of bird seed.

  • @serpechia Yes definitely. That explains why birds are constantly flying OUT of the hat, and not in. And it's not that they only showed us the right parts of the video, because if that were the case then nobody would find it impressive or interesting in the least if it were just a constant exchange of pigeons flying in and out.

  • @fatdewd911 Wow. Snarky. Sarcastic. And no offer of a solution? Maybe it is a one way hat. The birds come in the bottom attracted by the seed, and can't leave the same way they came due to a ramp that closes the exit when their weight hits it (Like most wild animal traps) so they have to go out the top. Have a nice day you thoughtful, genuine, kind, improbably gracious human.

  • @serpechia Alright, I'll admit my comment was a little overly peevish. I apologize for that. It's just that the shortness of your comment made it seem like you were trying to belittle the effort put into making this illusion work. As for your one way trap, it would be difficult to place an entry point in such a place so that not only would be hidden from passer-by but would also be a short enough tunnel to the hat so the pigeons could find their way over (they're not very bright).

  • @serpechia Also, the bird seed brings up the question of how the illusion is kept up (whether or not somebody periodically comes to replenish the supply or what) and many pigeons would also be quite content with sitting in the hat eating birdseed all day without feeling the need to fly out and create the spectacle we saw. I didn't provide another possible solution because I couldn't think of one, not because my sole purpose was to be snarky.

  • @serpechia Lol really, Captain Obvious?

  • @serpechia Well, mostly bird shit now.

  • very clever :)

  • Now that is just cool!

  • that being said, i love the attempted creative solution.

  • hardly cheap and who the hell is going to notice birds in the city on top of a billboard?

  • Music?

  • @pilsenaxa music is: ''Michel Legrand - Di-Gue-Ding-Ding''

  • bird seeds

    saw the same technique in the panadol (?) commercial. the one with the headache

  • low cost + effective : brilliant!!
