He's a witch! Burn him!!
This will be useful in future.
air Guitar Hero?
yes!!
actually, better than i thought it would be
To accomplish this you must realize the truth; there is no spoon.
Woah.
I absolutely see this guy doing TEDtalks next year or the one after.
Such a creative (call it weird or eccentric if you like) flair with music. Love it.
Big deal. Magneto has been doing this trick for years.
He's wearing a thick jacket indoors for a reason.
This is stupid. It is a magic trick. He's using an extremely thin invisible line. Look at his other hand, the one he's not using to "move" the spoon. You can tell he's holding the line. All he's doing is hitting the invisible line. Why is this interesting?
you sir, are a moron. No. It's not a magic trick. It's a tech demo. And no he's not making the spoons move with a invisible line. He's making them move with magnets. Under the table. Controlled by myoelectric sensors. He said so. And then showed it to us at the end of the video. wtfv.
i think he also has wiimotes in his sleeves and he's playing wii music
ahh whatever! bet they cant make a toaster dance like the Ghostbusters did........
NOOOOO! He lost his precious magic spoon in that useless machine!
I love the very end where the spoon falls down and he tries to get it as the machine still moves according to his hands.
Anyone actually make it through the whole video? The ball is on a string attached to the cup. Sorry, the rerun of Family Guy where Lois find out she has a brother that I've seen numerous times distracted me.
