Take a look.
I'm mentalist Kevin Viner here to show you
that the unbelievable magic featured in
can be done in real life.
So we're going to try a little psychological experiment.
Okay.
Stick this in one of your pockets.
What I want you to do is just make me some random
drink, barista's choice.
This is a latte with vanilla
and honey in it.
And you felt like this was a free choice?
Yeah.
You still have the envelope?
Yeah.
How much would this be by the way?
$4.75
So there's exactly 25, 50, 75 cents...
...and one, two, three, four dollars.
So, $4.75?
[LAUGHS] Yes.
Now I know there's probably a few drinks on
the menu that might be $4.75, right?
With everything in there? But this was
a vanilla latte with honey and that's exactly
what I was hoping you'd make for me...
"Make a vanilla latte, add honey"
Typically people tip you, right?
Always tip the barista?
Yeah.
So, I mean, this is exactly $4.75. I don't
want to leave you with just nothing extra.
Okay.
Watch the dollars really carefully.
What the...?!
$100, $200, $300...
Barista: Who are you?!
Four hundred dollars
I think you deserve that.
Thank you.
Seriously, keep the change.
Wow.
Have a great day.
Enjoy your latte.
Kevin: I will.
That was - that was a one dollar bill just now,
I swear to God.
Kevin: Put your hands up, like, "Ahhhh!"
I'm going to snap an image. Close them into two fists
and let's rotate everyone this way.
And if I can have you stand right over there?
Put one of those behind your back right now.
Whatever I do to the screen will effect you in real life. Chelsea, close your eyes.
Don't say anything, but pay attention to any
kind of sensation you feel and if there's
more than one, remember both.
Keep it in your mind.
All I want to know is a "yes" or a "no".
Keep your eyes closed. Yes or no, did you
feel me touch you?
Yes.
Where was the first place you felt the touch?
Can you point to it with your right hand?
Barista: Oh, God.
Kevin: Okay, and did you feel a second touch?
Yes.
Kevin: Where?
Open your eyes, open your eyes. Tell her what
just happened. She's not going to believe
it coming from me.
He touched your face on the photo in the places
that you felt.
Nobody was actually touching you.
What?
Now here's the thing, you can put this hand
down. Leave your left hand out here. I want
you to be able to see what's going on. If
I draw just a little "X" on your screen, okay?
Is that going to come off?
I hope.
Here's what's crazy, take your right finger
and I want you to imagine – good choice
– imagine that you're pushing that "X" through
the screen. If you do that, it becomes a part
of the photo now.
What?!
You can push it straight through the image.
Does Apple know about you?!
Now, look, I told you that whatever I do to the
screen would effect you in your real life,
right? When I touched the screen, you felt
it. When I draw on your hand on the screen,
it also effects you in real life. Take a look.
Oh my God!
Whaaaaaaat?
What's your name?
Kira.
Have you ever been hypnotized?
Not that I'm aware of.
"Not that you're aware of"? That's a good answer.
And you'd recognize that handwriting, right?
Yes.
Can you show it to the camera? Can we get
a close up so we can see?
Now hold your right hand for me, palm up.
Okay, close it around
the coin really tightly. Now I want you to
look straight at me. I want you to imagine
that when I move my hand over your face that
this arm is becoming an iron rod that you
won't be able to move.
Stare at me, look at me.
[SNAPS FINGER]
Now, did you feel that tense up?
Yeah.
Kevin: Okay. Now here's what's crazy, you're going
to find that if you start to try to bend that
arm, it's going to want to stay exactly where
it is. You're going to find it's very hard
to move. It almost seems immobile.
You feel that, right, Kira?
Yeah.
And look, here's what's crazy, the harder
you try to bend it, the less it's going to
want to go. You're going to find that, right?
That arm doesn't want to bend. You can't bend it.
It's completely impossible, isn't it?
Yeah.
Isn't that nuts? Doesn't that feel bizarre?
Here's what's really crazy, you know your
name, right? What's your name?
Kira.
Kira, look, the moment I touch your throat,
it's going to leave you instantly, right there.
[FINGER SNAPS]
Look, you're going to find that it's at the
tip of your tongue, right? Try and say it.
Try and say it out loud.
It's not wanting to come out, right?
Ok, good [FINGER SNAPS]
Now it's back
Go for it. What's your name?
Kira.
Kira, good. Now I want you to look straight
here at your arm and I want you to focus on
that and I want you to start bending it...
[FINGER SNAPS]
...as hard as you can right now. Look at me,
look at me, look at me, bend it, squeeze that
fist, squeeze that fist as tightly as you can.
Good. Take a look at what you did to your coin.
What? Shut the [BLEEP] up!
I'm Kevin Viner and I hope you enjoyed that
coffee shop magic. If you thought that was
great, wait until you see
"Now You See Me 2," in theaters June 10th.
