To be a good magician, you need to be good in magic
To be a great magician, you need a Wren in your audience

Niko is literally a Mythological hero. Knows wizards, can do the Odyssey axe shot, and has a beard.
Don't forget. A master of illusions (albeit digital but still).
And he’s the boss of the group, he’s literally young Gandalf
Now I know I'm about 9 months too late. But your comment makes me wanna draw Niko as a mythological hero. You know what? As soon as I'm done with my current project next will be Niko as a Mythological Hero!

@@mrroboshadow haha sure!
I’m glad he paid special attention to Wren, he’s like a little kid lol so cute
Agree
You're all fucked.
As a magician what he did there is a common practice, take the one audice member that is felling it the most, these are the people who are there to have fun and they won't screw something up intentionally too, also a little mental trick, by playing more with a person so "loud" as wren it speaks to the others too
420th like 👌
agreed
You can just see Wren's faith in logic and reason fade away over the course of this video.
He's literally screaming 'NO! NO! THERE ARE RULES! REALITY HAS RULES!' in his head.
mine as well
@@Devonimp "I know there's a trick to it, but how can there be a trick to it?!"
legit, he was computing 😂 then
The rubber band trick:
magician: "im not going to snap this at you don't worry-"
wren: "I trust you."
magician: "-i dont know why you would do that but okay"
2 Dudes & a Nerd so you are most likely a bot
Either that or you just tried to advertise your TH-cam “channel” on random comments
@@travisimon3269 its number 2 I think because they did reply to other people
that's exactly what I thought!
The thing is, I watched it on slo-mo, and can tell the moment SOMETHING happens...but I STILL couldn't explain it or work it out, for the life of me!
@@andrewsparkes8829 I am pretty sure I know what he does with his fingers and his rubber band to change the topology. But to pull that off without anyone noticing is the trick! As he said: 95% is the presentation and performance. Plus a LITTLE sleight of hand.
He knows his audience. For Wren he treated it like he was showing an excited kid and with Sam he made it out to be a demonstration and more of a conversation and that was cool to see the adaption
100% Those two give themselves away with their body language so fast tho. I was dyin' looking at Sam at the beginning. Quick analysis by the magician paid off so much.
Can we have a compilation of Wren freaking out?
Lol, fan-based submission of everything that involves Wren

+WASP I'm waiting
lol thx for keeping us updated
I actually practiced cards manipulation for a while, there's no big secret about all these tricks:
It's all magic.
All of it.
Magic is real.
Well duuuuuh, pretty sure that's common knowledge, I mean how else would we explain Santa Claus?
did you try magic or just card manipulation?
+Wajih bec It's my understanding that card manipulation is a type of magic.
weasel1001isawesome i see card manipulation as trick that trick the eye with fast hand movement and other things like the last trick where he made them think that 4 different cards are jst the same 2.
Sleight of hand that can be applied to magic tricks, such as controlling a card through a deck, palming cards etc. It's really fun (:
02:37 Wren is in the classic child-so-excited-but-trying-to-contain-it pose 😂
ahahahaha .. that was the one of the most interesting thing in this video,, his reaction
watch this video.. i did a reaction to ERIC chein .. check out his tricks ,,, completly mind blowing

Think about a guys it should be mentally impossible to interpret someone else's thoughts or intentions just to unveil those two said person in real time it is impossible right? Why do we look at magicians like they're just really good at what they do they're not necessarily practicing these things guys it's it's a lot more complicated the greatest musicians that ever lived doing performances that are impossible physically and both mentally are not 100% human this should be obvious by now considering that how the f*** does that person know what your card is. Notice how he says make sure you say it over in your head over and over and over he's telepathic probably has reptilian DNA and is able to interpret thoughts.
@@TheDivineCallingofJesusChrist Judging by your videos I'm guessing you genuinely think this shit is real. Yikes
So no visual effects....so there was no.....Wrendering?

Also. with apologies to Hostile who does these better.

I have failed you, but more importantly, I failed myself.
:-(
+Hostile You're fired.
+Niko noooooooo!
That was really fun; Wren's reactions are priceless. I'm even more impressed to see that this isn't even Brian's full-time gig; he's also an engineer at Oracle.
Awesome i love engineers/programmers.
Mahlen Morris can he fix Oracle? Lol we use an oracle program at work and it’s a headache.

Let just say, I know the secret
Wren is legit the cutest human being ever
Ikr he's adorable
Yes he is
Inés SA #hyperbole
*S I M P*
He really is. I too am a magican and if I show some tricks there is always this one person like wren in the audience,being super curious yet reacting totally wild to the simplest of moves. Wren really is a perfect spectator. That the magican picking wren from the audience to mak ethe rubber and trick in his hands was a really great move.
Haha omg, when Wren stands up "I'm Wren!" you can just see he's well aware that he's about to just get lost on a magic ride into the unknown and unpossible.
And I'll bet terribly.
Impossible****
Sounds like LSD with more steps
Eek barba dirkle somebody's gonna get laid in college
But even he doesnt know how i made my lost guitar picks disappear and reappear after 5 years even after changing houses. Now THAT's magic.
guitar picks clearly aren't from this dimension, thus they don't follow our normal laws of physics.
Newton's 4th law of motion: fuck you, your pick does not exist.
I once saw my jim dunlop jazz III Kirk Hammett signature pick (which is very pointy and cornered) roll into our kitchen. How??????
@@rangamsarmah2061 Magic \I*-*I/
@@piggles1019 Same with socks.
The rubber band trick is 10% prep and 90% practicing that damn trick over and over and over.
That was the one trick I knew exactly how to do, it's actually really easy, but so mindblowing if you don't know how it works.
The rest of it made me really happy, I love magic tricks I can't wrap my mind around!
Even watching the clip frame by frame, and sort of seeing how he does it, it still is hard to grasp.
Theres no prep needed, just any 2 rubber bands will do
If you want to learn it it'a called Crazy Man's Handcuffs, there's plenty of tutorials on youtube
It's just insanely good sleight of hand. Nothing else to it.
Being a card magician myself, I knew how a few of these worked, even Crazy Man’s Handcuffs, even though that’s with rubber bands. Does it mean I didn’t enjoy watching him? Of course not. Magic is only about 5-10% the secret. The rest is in the story and performance. For me, it’s enjoyable to see someone else’s routine on an effect (e.g. The Linking Rings or an Ambitious Card routine) and seeing new ways to do what is in essence the same performance. There are even some routines I’ve seen that, even knowing exactly what is going on, still fool me a little because the moves and slights are so smooth. I personally think knowing the secret can help someone appreciate the art of the performance more.
Orion Pax I think this is articulated really well. Even with the “older” style of magic, it’s still so enjoyable to watch performers who have years of experience and performance.
(BTW, the Crazy Man’s Handcuffs was so smooth! I definitely can’t do it that smooth lol).
I think when you know how the trick is done, it almost let's you appreciate how it's done even more
@@nicky2575 Yeah, the tricks that I have learned how they work, I have always been just as astounded at just how skilled the magicians were as I was when I initially saw the trick. Magic really is an art, and one that can often be most impressive.
I loved watching this because I too have been learning card magic and knowing how it is done, also knowing what to look for showed me how good he is. Its the best when you can't see some of the techniques used.
I really enjoyed the trick with the Zarrow Shuffle. That was well done.
"I trust you"
"I don't know why you would do that"
Lol
Me
that's when he did the switcheroo, he just said that to distract us I mean look at his hand and the way he stuttered as if he was concentrating on something o_O
@@wantdatcadpat44 great call, you're right watch that exact moment at like 0.25x speed. You can see his rubber band snapping out of the one Wren is holding and how he places it back on top at the same time to stop the sling motion of Wren's rubber, incredible.
@@100Peterll yep u can see his finger clearly, how he changes the "grip?" on the rubber amazing ... just practice guys:P
@@donspiff8649 all of magic is simply practice, some take a week, some take years, it's all misdirection, practice and muscle memory. :)
Aaaaaaaaaaaand Wren's officially lost his shit
I was sweating
that happened a long time ago
+Orande ye
Dude I lost my shit. How the frick did he make all the cars bee face up in the second last trick he does? HOW?! (I should read books.. nah ill stick to youtube)
Chazmaster777 THAT WAS FRICKIN YEARS AGO
Can't take this serious knowing this is a VFX crew with a magician...
look for Shin Lim @YT
It’s real I’ve seen most of these before
He does his slight of hand really well. I particularly liked how he got around trying to hide a pass by simply cutting the cards a couple times and shuffling. It’s a nice subtlety and doesn’t feel out of place.
I doubt wren could fake those reactions
True
Wren is precious and must be protected at all costs. He's the type of human that keeps the magic alive. If he ever has children he's going to be an amazing dad.
Sam was planted, the only reason he was apart of corridor digital for so many years was for this very moment
Figured one out. As for the rest, prepare the pyre we have a witch to burn.
+oishisakana But Jake doesn't draw from the bottom. O.o
*witcher
+Flecks Foit Was that meant to be a joke or are you being serious
Questioning the choice of who to burn? PREPARE THE SACK WITH STONES WE HAVE ANOTHER THAT NEEDS TESTED!
A little bit of both I guess.
Joking about the correction like it matters how he calls it. But witcher is actually the correct male version of witch.
Derived from the german terminology the female form: Hexe = witch and the male form: Hexer = witcher.
I love Wren's reactions, it's just a wonderful combination of pure joy and amazement, with a dash of "I so want to know how to do that!".
6:55 on quarter speed. Especially Wren's dopey "I trust you." is great :)))
INFACT YOU CAN SEE THE TRICK HAPPEN HERE, HE USES HIS THUMB TO TWIST THE BAND AND YOU SEE IT FLICK BACK
During this time, Corridor Digital's bank account was emptied out. All thanks to their power of imagination.
uh...
LOL
xD
Now you don't
lol.... now u see me
Just saw this awesome magician last night at the Magic Castle. He is a great guy and his tricks are even more amazing in person! Not gonna lie, I flipped out just like Wren did.
Nice to meet you, Max! Glad you had a good time!
Max Ramirez Strange question, but is the „bridge“ in you profile picture in Barcelona?✈️
7:05 I saw the magician snapping the rubber band out of his finger and then catching it and stretching it again but on the other side. It's super subtle, but you can even hear the snap
Damn. You're totally right. The sleight of hand there is insane
i just went 0.25x XD
It's all tricks
I liked his answer when asked why magicans don't explain tricks. He could have been all mysterious about it or something but he actively encouraged people to go and find out.
he's a really good talker
You need to be. As he said: Magic is 95% presentation. And talking is absolutely part of that presentation.
+RaketenKuhGewehr yes, I can see where it happens in a few of them; but, if I was there I wouldn't have because I would been focused on his story. He was a very smooth talker.
I think I'll take two chickens.
昊 talkers make me thirsty
I want to reveal that his pin on his lapel shows that he is a Magician Member of the Academy of Magical Arts.
You monster!
*Shhhhhh that's confidential.*
7:09 god wrens little “nu...” is hilarious.
Those tricks are so basic, but the way he presents them are sooooo good! It really does add to it, regardless of knowing the method or not
I sort of half figured out some of these, but 75% of good magic is presentation, and man this guy's presentation.
Jk he said 95%. I'll take that too.
dude are u sure u figured it out? often people think they got it right, but they dont (btw i know every routine in this video)
Tamtam Not all of it for sure, but some of it or at least alternative ways to do it. Again, the presentation is what makes the performance, and this man is absolutely incredible with his presentation.
Tselel
true
i know every one of the tricks except for the first one
"Im gonna use the 6 and the 9..."
niceeee
😂😂😂😂
TONIGHT WE GET THIS TO 69 LIKES
@@pleasestop104 there's always that guy that ruins the number smh
I'm not sure you know how silent letters work
I thoroughly enjoy not knowing how they're done, and don't want to know. I like imagining that it's actual magic.
That's why magicians do macic. To take the spectator out of this world for a brief moment creating something that the spectator will never forget
Wren is a amazing person. He’s so enthusiastic happy and funny all the time but at the same tine he’s smart and great at acting. I freaking love that guy ❤️❤️
I love spotting sleight of hand tricks. I saw how he did several of these, but the really impressive part to me is to be able to perform these 100% accurately almost 100% of the time. There's no room for error in these or else you give away the trick, and that's why I love these guys.
Raccido
Conversely, having an alternate ending should you mess up/be caught. Even better, having a back up to your alternate ending.
I’ve done this numerous times. However, when someone feels “big”/“cool” for catching you out, play into their ego before performing your alternate ending and regaining control of the situation.
Fun stuff 🙂
As Jon Wayes said, magicians sometimes screw up. The idea is to plan for contingencies. The spectator has no idea how the movie ends, so to speak, and those who are quick on their feet can quickly write a new one, or have an alternate ready. This is called an "out". The reality of performing for real people live is they're unpredictable.
With that said, sometimes even better magic happens and gets invented because of quick thinking and if it was improvised, it's new to the performer too. Everyone wins in those moments.
The trick there is the spectator has no idea that they just saw something brand new or not originally intended.
the one where he got wren to decide which card he used different phrasing for whether he wanted to stay or go
Slight of hand tricks under the guise of card tricks.
@@teeroux imho card tricks that rely heavily on logic and mathematics can be interesting and thought-provoking, but dirtier performance-based tricks can result in more magical outcomes. Being a magician is about taking advantage of our limited human perception and attention to distort and elevate reality. The exact methods used aren't as important as the impact those methods have.
HAVE BRIAN MARKENSON DISH OUT THE CARDS IN AIRSOFT TTT!!
you won't know until you die :V
imagine how good that'd be, everyone would become an innocent, and nobody except him would know, and then, when everyone but him is dead, pof, he's suddenly a traitor and wins!(although that'd be cheating)
That would actually be a hilarious thing to see, if they actually did one round, where everyone is inno, but nobody knows about that (except some guy who isn't part of the game)
I have actually done something similar in a similar game, except I made everyone a traitor, and everybody thought that there was only one traitor. It was hilarious.
YYYYYYYEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!
YES
Wow! Brian was a dorm floormate of mine at uni in the early 90s. We used to hang out and he always did these cool tricks and blew our minds with his brain teasers and other games. All the energy and enthusiasm from that time is still there after all these years. GO BEARS!
Rule #1 in debunking magic tricks:
Never believe what the magician tells you
Jason Rule #2: As soon as the magician says “let’s begin,” the trick is already done.
Wren looks like a little kid haha
He's a kitten
+BeggerStager he's a kidden...
Kill me
hes so triggered
He's the perfect victim for this :D Priceless
-Do you want to see a magic trick?
-No!
The End
No it’s more like “GET YOUR MIND GAMES AWAY FROM ME. I WILL NOT YEILD MY MIND OVER TO A COMMON SORCERER!!!!!!!!!”
I fucking hate when that happens. There really are lots of people out there
Who come here after the part 2?
After 6 years later
The "double dove" was so perfect on the rubber bands. He definitely deserves to be in the club
I've learnt the rubber band one before, but that was smooth af
its practice practice practice ....... these guys spend hours on a daily basis to perfect there trick

I see a lot of faces I don't know, mainly because they're rarely featured in these videos. Could you do a video where we meet everyone?
I think some of them work next door, so not actually a part of corridor crew
The other half of faces we don't know are from Stress Level Zero, which is Brandon's gig next-door.
I just came across this during quarantine, and even before I watched it I thought, _Having someone perform magic, _*_specifically for these guys,_*_ is a fantastic idea for a video._ And it was great to see how much they appreciated it.
Wren was ready for his mind to be blown, but it got disintegrated instead.
Wren's receptive to magic, that's so cool to perform for this kind of people !
How he presented the performance, was so elegant and professional. Kinda brings you down to Earth, you know?
the fact that i remember watching this video at the beginning of highschool, and here i am still watching sam and niko when my university application is literally due in three weeks... wow. thank you guys for everything
Wrens reactions are so wholesome. Bless that man.
Good thing Sam didn't draw a red card. Magician doesn't know how close he came to death.
What?
Node jokes
+Taylor Stephenson traitor.
Node joke for when they play Trouble in Terrorist Town
he's just as deadly as a detective.
Watching Wren's mind get blown is sooo entertaining :D
I Love how he does simple tricks, on a mechanical point of view , but the way he presents the trick is what makes it awesome.
I really didnt expect to watch this til the end but it's mesmerizing. This guy is crazy talented.
Wren, your reaction to all these tricks completely made my day.
I loved doing rubber band magic tricks in school and the one he performed (Crazy Mans Handcuffs/Quantum Bands) was one of my favorite's because you always got a great reaction, I was so happy when I saw that this trick was going to be performed to everyone, know wat a great reaction it would receive.
i always love Wrens genuine reactions to magics & tricks
I love how these are simple tricks but his performance makes it so much better
analyzed every single frame of the video. I should go to sleep now...
Probably should
Hey wren...
Do you believe in magic?
In a young mans heart
How the edits can free him
whenever it starts
And it's magic
if the wrender is groovy
It makes you feel happy like an old time movie
I'll tell ya about the magic
It'll give you direction
but it's like trying to tell a stranger 'bout colour correction
If you believe in magic, don't bother to choose
If it's an indie film or the youtube blues
Just go and see
It'll start with a smile
that goes a way for a while
But comes back again when you fit export movie!
Your fingers start tapping
And you can't seem to find
How you got there
So just blow your mind
If you believe in magic
Come along with me
We'll edit until morning, just you and me
and maybe, if the effects aren't right
I'll meet ya tomorrow
so late at night
We'll do some edits' baby then you'll see
all the magic's in the moment of the new movie, yeah
Do you belive in editing magic? Yeah.
Believe in the edits in a young mans soul
believe in the edits that make the video roll
Ohhhh, talkin' bout edits
Do you believe like I believe?
Do you believe in edits?

I'm rewatching this in 2019 just for wren's reactions
I love the wonder in Wren's face every time haha!
This is just so wholesome. Love it.

this man is so wholesome. It warms my heart and I rewatch this video every now and then
This has really inspired me as I have been doing magic for a while and some of these simple tricks I do, but the way he performs them clearly enhances the reaction which is what I love about magic: amazing people
Had a smile on my face during the entire video! very fun to watch
That guy was amazing! Props to Niko for bringing him in.
I stopped performing a few years ago, this guy reminded me what it's like to see magic as a lay person again. kudos
I love the fact that him and other magicians choose to let the applause go towards the person involved with the trick.
Card College is one of the best book series on card manipulation and slight of hand. Great stuff.
A lot of new faces... Can we get a video showing EVERY corridor member?
It will took them one entire video just to show us all the Peter clones they have made
I think there's also some SL0 folks in the video.
Knowing how the tricks are done makes many of them even more impressive. I know what card moves he must have made for those tricks, but the fact that even watching for them I can't see him do them is a testament to his incredible skill.
That rubberband trick with wren was incredible talent with slide of hand. It's so precise and quick, I love it.
I'm looking for the switch at 5:10, this is insane
The only explanation I can think of is he has the 2 cards in his hand at 5:10 (the 5 and Sams card) and drops the 5 when he taps it onto the top of the deck briefly before he hands Sam his original card back.
It's not a switch, it's a different technique, but I'm not going to spoil it to you unless you really want me to.
It's a double lift, he didn't switch it, he just turned it over. :)
Hint it was the second from the top
i can explain if you REALLY want to know
Magic is actually fucking dope...
no, you've commented on too many video
Magic isnt real lol fucking idiot
This guys slight of hand is fantastic.
You guys make magic all the time, but it was a real treat watching you all light up for real magic. Lol
13:20 you can see in his eyes that this guy absolutely LOVES doing magic and being a magician.
who the F wouldnt ... you can see the excitement n people's face on a daily basis.. its sooooooo satisfying

This made me smile with such innocent awe! Brilliant video guys!
I do watch this episode once or twice a year, just to see the pain and joy fused together in Wren's face on every trick
This made my day, thank you.
This guy has some sick ass finger speed, i cannot for the life of me see where he changes fingers for the rubber band trick
I found it pretty easy to spot/figure out when replaying the video in both cases, but it's certainly way too fast to notice on the first try (mainly because you can easily narrow it down both backward and forward when replaying).
***** i genuinely can't see the moment the rubber band switches fingers, i know exactly when it is but i cannot for the life of me see the bands moving.
The funny thing is, we know how he do it, but yet we can't see it. That's when you know the guy is good
I watched it in slow motion.... it's hilarious to watch and still not see what's going on entirely.
You can clearly see when the band changes sides (earlier than when the 'magic' is supposed to happen), but how the heck does it hop back onto his finger?
I saw it the second time that he did it without pausing the video. I paused it to make sure and I was right. :)
Although I know some of the tricks they still look soooo well done. He's right, 95% is all about performance
The true magic is the execution and presentation.
I use to practice magic tricks and showed them to my friends and teachers at school. Some of the tricks he did are the ones I use to do. I stopped practicing eventually but I do still love to watch magicians perform even if I know how many are done.
The rubber band trick is so damn cool... my friend's brother-in-law is a magician and it's the first trick he showed me. SO DAMN COOL
7:05 watch closely. you can see when it happens. The last time he pulls back, he lets the band go of one finger, then catches it again. Very fast.
He timed it right after that joke so the audience was distracted. Very clever.
still my favorite corridor crew video, this guy is insane
This guy was so good. His performance is next level. Great job to the magician :)
