Tonight on The Hour: Tricks of a Mentalist

[McClinchey09]

u clearly see he had switched it and he puts the other coin down his sleeve the first coin was never in her hand.

[MrHoudini666]

This guys hands are GIGANTIC.

[israelifaggot]

what an easy trick to do

[israelifaggot]

what an easy trick to do

[karmaVSL]

1.26 I think the guy on the right of the performer says "It's a differenet c...(oin)? And then he realises that he shouldn't say that and says "You totally bend that.

I won't comment o the performance...I just think that part was funny...

[FatalPixels]

Wow, that was SO badly done.

Terrible way to frame the trick

[WarBeanz]

When he is rubbing her hand he changes the coin & the heat of the coin is caused because you hand is warming it up. Try it.

[goveiac]

At 0:08, he takes the coin in one hand and puts it in the other, at 0:10 he switches back with another coin and puts the old one in his back pocket..

[greem5385]

Check out at 27 you can see what he does with the coin.

[arm4life87]

at 11 seconds he reached at his back pocket and then looked at the camera like did any one notice and then switched what ever was in his hand in to the other hand with the legit quarter.

[Infineon77]

thinking about you LS

[joe65968]

hate to say it but its a fake.. why did he make that unnessessary action towards his back pocket. and why is he hiding the coin when he puts it in her hand.

[jamesjohnking]

It's fake?! Oh my God!

[canadianmaple09]

Watch George's face from 0:28 until 0:34 . You can see that he sees the switch.

[85wayner85]

dude your so right,good catch man i didnt even notice until i was reading the comments and i clicked ur link.

George also baits Hiam out @ the end with saying "wow its another coin",what a dope.

[gODfall]

fake.

[Infineon77]

Paytonaqesd....what are you gonna do when they take the "You" out of Youtube & replace it with "Hulu"?

[kronker]

This "Mentalist" is a joke. The same day this was aired, they had a random person, do the same trick to impress Ed Aisner on The Tonght Show with Jay Leno(I'm talking about the spiked cup trick).

Not to mention I saw this trick on youtube over 6 months ago, and who knows how much longer it has been around in magician circles.

George should stick with The Amazing Kreskin.

[titnut4]

i like Mr. Georges first reaction: "Its a different co...."

Then he realizes he should just go with it lol.

[DrunkAtheist]

haha yeah

[lilchineseman9]

she was looking at the coin though...she probably would've seen. even still, if you see his other stuff it's pretty good.

[James17930]

Yeah, that was pretty obvious.

Lame.

[ramona7609]

he did the ole switcharoo

[betabenja]

after he closes the hand, watch his fingers - he slides the coin out with the index finger of his left hand, and slips another in with the index of his right in a swift movement

[bonnieblue1122]

wtf?

[pornfartin]

is it slide or slight of hand, that's the real mystery.

[chopin65]

It looks like a coin trick to me. He reaches around to his back pocket! Big mystery! LOL.

[Unhallowlaw]

metal is bendable by human hands if you can direct you body heat towards the coin and put pressure on it... all he was doing was tricking her into believing her hand was getting warmer and that the coin was magical bending... reach for the documented act of people getting burned with ice cubes while in hypnosis

[alexzanderhill]

its still impressive

[Unhallowlaw]

never sad it wasn't... mostly i just want to explain the possibility of it not being fake to the people who instantly call out fake.

[DemonmachinE]

It's not exactly impressive. It's simple sleight of hand that this guy isn't so so good at.

[Quannon1992]

i wish the show wasnt on so late, i really wanna see this one :(

[lesmcluffalot]

you can watch whole episodes after the fact on CBC's website.
