  • the screen shoulda jumped to some island or thirdworld country

  • The actual footage from Camera 4 would be easy to cut and swap it for some prerecorded footage. What I'm more concerned about is where the actual goddamned camera itself went!

  • Notice: When the small screen is all Pre-Recorded.

    At 0:20 you can see the camera fully but on both the bottom corners of the box there are small oblong panels, they hold the mirror but at the start of the trick its a see through mirror with a seal but at 1:09 the front part of the wooden box is closed that's were the camera man pulls the seal off and wraps it round the camera in a square shape and at 1:28 the front of the box explodes off showing the camera man in front of the mirror.

  • lol 0:50 pre-recorded footage for sure, look at the right arm

  • i found the camera. is under my bed :D

    bazaar but plausible.

  • @Porkularpie Award for most bizarre explanation goes to you . LOL.

  • Only the cameraman and paul must know! I say we hunt them down and find out! :D x

  • @Porkularpie I believe you on that

  • Where is poor thing camera ? huh ?

  • this guys awesome, check him out on the ali g show...good, funny guy

  • Do you really want to know?

    There is a minicam concealed in the box. It provided the feed (note the quality and the barrel distortion). At the end in the reveal it remains hidden behind the wooden surround at the top which does not collapse.

    The camera is on a platform and tilts back as soon as the box is closed and goes off into a trapdoor concealed by the stairs. Because of the tilt, it can be half the height of the camera and the joints of the trapdoor are concealed by the staircase.
