fuck you man, the beauty of magic is that moment when you are in awe of what you see. A moment of wonder where all your ideas and preconceptions about life and what reality is are suspended. For you to come here and shit all over that moment for me and other is just a shame, I hope one day you will realize that you've robbed us of a moment where we can truly be ourselves.
"I steal his pants!" *rolls* "... well, looks like you just throw him up on the table, removed his pants in front of everyone, and he never even faltered in his speech."
They cheated with camera tricks to hide the secret. The Grifter stands in front of The Brains as he pulls the coat off, so we can't see exactly how he did it.
If you watch closely you can see the edge of the mirror he uses. There is a pulley system in the roof, and a spring loaded cable he attaches to the jacket to pull it out of frame. I have not figured out how he gets under the table, but I think there must be some kind of trapdoor. You can see he places the watch on the table as a diversion, so while your eyes are focusing on the watch for a brief moment he uses the distraction to steal the cash out of the wallet.
I watch this every morning, for the past 2 years. I've tried slowing it down, not blinking, keeping my eyes open with little sticks on my eyelids, but I still can't understand how he pulled off these grifts. I presume its some kind of editing trickery.
Nah, it just takes 7 years of continuously doing, what you are already doing to even he able to see the trick. Nobody can calculate, how long it takes to do the trick yourself
This is so damn good I love it. I really love how chill Zach is sometimes. Often on the podcast there's a silly easiness about him that let's him create great characters. I liked Mark's riffing about how he wasn't cold; and I like Broden.
What the people browsing the comments section didn't realize was that they were falling for a massive ruse, during which the greatest grifter ever to live distracted them with a long comment while he subtly siphoned out all of their blood.
We're on tour with 'The Album' atm (it got an aria award nomination btw no biggie). Catch us in Sydney (tonight), Canberra, Adelaide, Perth, Brisbane, Hobart and Melbourne.
Having to come up with enough dialogue for him to struggle to steal stuff all while still acting like he was still sitting in his seat the whole time and not laugh must have been hard lol
*steals tie from the muscle* Grifter: anything TIEING us together? The brains: oooo little bit of uh spot the difference hmm bit of uh spot the similarity are we playing hmmmm ooo uhh.wait a second...are you boy wearing his tiiiiiiiieeeeuuuuh... The muscle and the brain: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH *worlds best grifter music plays*
haha so funny. Your acting like you didnt actually see Zach take all of those things. I thought it was quite weird that Mark and Broden didnt notice their stuff being taken. Zach was actually really slow...
If you look at the extended theatrical cut or the behind the scenes footage you can see all the training he went through to get that good. You also see how Mark got into character for his challenging “Italian Thief #2” role
THEORY! Zach can enter a separate dimension to the one Broden and Mark are in which allows him to move freely while they can only see his interdemensional hologram.
Did anyone see how he took all that stuff from them? This is incredible, had no idea he was that good of a pickpocket IRL, I didn't even notice. Or there is some REALLY good special FX going on here.
Subscribe, or Zach will steal your shoes bit.ly/ADYTSubscribe
Wait where are my shoes???
Aunty Donna
My shoes went missing after I subscribed. This is bullshit!
Promise?
Jokes on you I don't have any shoes to start with
Damn he has skills
What a grifting machine, i blinked for only 45 seconds and that guys jacket was gone
He was trained by Bob Arno!
That's nothing. I didn't even blink at all! That's some serious misdirection
I always forget about this comment, so thanks for consistently taking me out every time I read this comment section.
if you change it to .25 speed you can actually see how Zach pulled off all those slick grifts. Gotta look close though.
And then he stole their hearts
and smart phones
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GODS!
And ours!
😢
And they didn’t even notice
You can see him do it at 1:19 2:27 and 3:37, keep your eyes on Zach.
So I see the watch and jacket, but how did he get the money out of the wallet *WITHOUT TAKING THE WALLET OUT OF HIS JACKET POCKET?!*
@@micahphilson A wizard did it.
John Chataway well spotted!

I didn't see anything wtf
How did he steal that watch? Was that visual effects? CGI? It has to be. No man is that good.
No, I'm almost certain they just hired a professional pickpocket like Bob Arno to do all the stunts.
It has to be CGI. I replayed the video 6 billion times and couldnt see anything.
Pause at 1:16 its hard to see but this is the exact moment he took marks watch
Guys, it's just a hidden edit, stop overthinking it. It's pretty obvious to see if you got a PhD in Grifter Editing Watching like I did
Hopefully Captain Disillusion will make a video on this soon
can this become a series where the brains, the muscle and the grifter do heists together?
OHHHHH FUCKEN OATTTTTHHH BOYS
I second this
I twenty-eightth this.
PLEASE
Last time these boys tried to put a heist together, they recruited Judas Iscariot and he never left.
When you roll a 2 on Sleight of Hand, but the DM rolls a -1 on Perception
"I steal his pants!"
*rolls*
"... well, looks like you just throw him up on the table, removed his pants in front of everyone, and he never even faltered in his speech."
Word for word I was about to make the same comment
The most underrated bit of this video is when Zach picks the wrong card at the beginning, i love it so much
Or after he steals the watch and the dude notices by checking the wrong wrist
@@jacksonesp100 watch on right wrist, he checks right wrist tho?
@@Whalebun248 That's unfortunate. Would've been a good gag
Its more the correct card even had a spare / trick card on top of it, and he still picked up the wrong card.
I'm confused how did he get his jacket off of him? I've watched it and rewatched it like 8 times and I still cant catch him doing it
Lower the video speed.
They cheated with camera tricks to hide the secret. The Grifter stands in front of The Brains as he pulls the coat off, so we can't see exactly how he did it.
Clearly just fancy editing, no way it's actually possible for him to do what he did
The power of editing.
If you watch closely you can see the edge of the mirror he uses. There is a pulley system in the roof, and a spring loaded cable he attaches to the jacket to pull it out of frame. I have not figured out how he gets under the table, but I think there must be some kind of trapdoor. You can see he places the watch on the table as a diversion, so while your eyes are focusing on the watch for a brief moment he uses the distraction to steal the cash out of the wallet.
It takes high effort to deliver Zach's seemingly low effort acting performance
Don't be fooled, this man can act
Don't remember this scene from Baby Driver.
Where do you think he learnt those skills?
Being a corporate spy
I think you'll find this is actually Mr Bull
Frank Stallone
Not from a jedi
I love when Mark says “the money you could make is exponential” because it makes absolutely no mathematical sense
The fall he does at 2:38 makes this video for me. The entire thing is good but that split second is just the cherry on top. Really makes me chuffed.

i like the part where Zac gives Broden a blowy without Broden even noticing.

Aww nuts, so that's why I just collapsed and died! You got me good, Grifty!

Aunty Donna holy crap I’ve been trying to remember the name aria Giovanni for three days and you just reminded me, thanks Aunty Donna
Come to Christchurch!!!!
Would be going to the show tonight except it’s 18+ 😪
Would be going to the show tonight except it’s literally roughly on the other side of the globe 😪
I bought’n tics for tonight show, can’t wait!
What it really feels like to play Skyrim
My favorite thing about this sketch is how much fun Zach is having with this character
Sure you can steal a bloke's watch, wallet, jacket...But can you steal their hearts...
sumaya iwaszkiewicz ...looking for something?
Joe Z fuck you got me
sumaya iwaszkiewicz yes
zach trying to bite off the watch while mark is looking at him dead on, trying to keep conversation with him is so fucking hilarious
Having to come up with enough dialogue for him to struggle to steal stuff all while still acting like he was still sitting in his seat the whole time and not laugh must have been hard lol
After Mark introduces himself, I was disappointed Broden did not take the opportunity to reiterate the fact that he is indeed muscle man.
At first I wasn’t too invested, but this quickly became one of my favorites from you guys
Best sketch for ages! You need to do more like this
When the guy picks his card on the left (which was prob his card), Zac reveals the middle card lol
This is like Ocean's Eleven but the ocean is actually Altona beach and the number is actually just a smudged picture of a bee.
Looking forward to the show in Hobart BBBOOOIIIIISSSSSSSSSS !!!
*steals tie from the muscle*
Grifter: anything TIEING us together?
The brains: oooo little bit of uh spot the difference hmm bit of uh spot the similarity are we playing hmmmm ooo uhh.wait a second...are you boy wearing his tiiiiiiiieeeeuuuuh...
The muscle and the brain: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
*worlds best grifter music plays*
how did you translate broden-speak into text?
two ties.exe
oi he stole my phone while i was watching this!
Hey guys, thanks for doing this one for me. I appreicate it.
Its fake, they used cuts and editing to get the watches and jackets off. Zach isn't actually that good of a grifter.
haha so funny. Your acting like you didnt actually see Zach take all of those things. I thought it was quite weird that Mark and Broden didnt notice their stuff being taken. Zach was actually really slow...
Are you kidding? They made it look like Zach was really fast. I didn't even see Zach move from where he was sitting!
If you look at the extended theatrical cut or the behind the scenes footage you can see all the training he went through to get that good.
You also see how Mark got into character for his challenging “Italian Thief #2” role
3:06 When you're trying to increase the word count on your essay... xD
the card grift is subtle but so good! guy chooses left card, but Zach flips the middle and says wrong
Zach shouldn't need to steal all those watches because of their MVMT sponsorship. Oh wait...
Were those MVMT's? These gentleladies are even more epic than I initially thought!
It would be so hard not to laugh while acting in this seane🤣
Wait was that Leigh Whannell at the start?
It’s like I’m watching someone pickpocket in a Bethesda game
Great to see you boys doing more one-offs!!
I love how Mark's laugh is identical every time
Now I know where Drax learnt his camoflague skills from.
This is my favorite thing on TH-cam, at this very moment.
Someone do a SCP entry for this. "The Grifter". Can steal anything from anyone without them noticing.
SCP 1504
Is this the Thieves' Guild quest line in Skyrim?
I just want you to know that I, both, love and respect you as people and as the boys who stole my heart.
1999 was the best set of sketches I’ve ever seen!
"With those eyes Zach actually steals my heart" - Miranda Kerr
I wish
This is genuinely the funniest video ever made and I say this with zero hyperbole
Well I, for one, am thoroughly impressed
full length feature film of this please
Zach's delivery in this one reminds me of Salad Fingers.
The absolute best bit is when Zach seamlessly removes Marks jacket. You have to look closely though, just a tip 😂
Had me worried 4 awhile boys this was fantastic
"but I rolled a nat 20 on sleight of hand"
I love listening to the podcast on long car trips
I had lost hope in Aunty Donna being funny again, but now this!
New Aunty Donna content and it's got me *CHUFFED*
This was a pretty subtle and entertaining tax write off.
2:06 the empty stare of Broden killed me.
Sleight of hand check: 4
Passive Perception: 1, every damn time.
When your Pickpocket skills is 100 in Skyrim.
Had to watch this 4 times to understand how the hell he got that jacket.. simply genius!!
THEORY! Zach can enter a separate dimension to the one Broden and Mark are in which allows him to move freely while they can only see his interdemensional hologram.
You could probably make an hour long vid of zach singing random shit
I love you boys, this is phenomenal
It's like an ode to the David Blaine parody, I love it. Haven't you done well, boys?
This sketch is criminally underrated
Hey!! When I started viewing this I had a watch on!! Oh, no...no, still wearing it..
Golly jee wiz boys another great video
One of their best skits
I watched this and now everything in my house was stolen.
"So Grifter... how did you do it?"
"Well you see....... KING CRIMSON!"
iS tHaT A JoJO ReFerANcE?
This one’s adorable. 💝
I live in geelong me and my friends LOVE your channel
I'm impressed.
Look up 'physical comedy' in the dictionary, and you'll find this TH-cam video staring back at you.
Oh you wonderfully silly people. Perfection!
Classic Donna, I love this
It's the gift of griving
Favorite Aunty Donny sketch
Could've used a man like him when you robbed the La Porchetta smh
I’ll come to your show but I’ll leave my wallet and clothes at home now
Did anyone see how he took all that stuff from them? This is incredible, had no idea he was that good of a pickpocket IRL, I didn't even notice. Or there is some REALLY good special FX going on here.
Mindfreak
1999 was the best series, need more stuff like that
I like to think that everybody has extreme nerve damage.
hello, please make a follow up video to this, my dad would love to see the Grifters heist
This is what level 100 pickpocket looks like
Hey look the boys finally got some use out of their MVMT watches
That bad J cut at 0:49 haha
I love this.
Elder scrolls in 100 years with life like graphics and the same ai.
Can you believe they did this all in just 1 take?
There is sadly a greater grifter and he used to be a president. Can you belive it.
This is the Oceans 14 podcast in sketch form
I think this is your best work
