Im not sure if it part of the act, but the camera turns to the right and focuses on another "illusion".

The "lines" are actually a "fence" that stands tall and not flat on the ground.

Poor illusion, however, it to me a few secs to notice it.

Thats a bullshit trick, as he gets close the camera rotates about 90 degrees to a new position.

There's 2 set ups. One is already in position before the video is started. The next one he lays down for your view, which are pieces of cardboard that appear to look like a laptop, shortly after the camera man rotates and pretends to focus on the remote the 'magician' has pulled out. He then looks down as the 'magician' uses the remote to turn it on. As far as you can tell at first glance it looks like the same image but somehow it's been turned on. He waves his hands to make it appear to be as a 3d illusion and he grabs the lines around the 'boxes' and pushes them aside. The trick is that the only illusion is that the outlines are not actually layed against the surface of the ground but are standing up, he's simply waving his hands in front of and behind them and pretends to pick it up and slide it out of the way but it only looks that way because of the camera angle. In reality there's just a laptop behind some plastic outlines on wheels standing up. Sorry for the long explanation, it's quite simple, generic and I used magician in quatations because I feel it should be loosely used. You can replay the last few seconds if you don't see it. It's pretty damn lame. I was bored so there's a thorough explanation. Someone go shoot that guy in the face now please. Thanks.

Might I also say, you can see the stand and wheels when he pulls it out from under that carpet or wtf ever that is. Just looked at it again, this vid is dumb... I hate you TheSkanker. I really do.

of course the main thing to look for is the angle of the paving slabs he lines them up perfectly in the first one but look at the bottom when you reveiw the laptop .........
