    How'd he get the little ball though

    • @AzNightmare
      @AzNightmare 10 ปีที่แล้ว +94

      The little red ball is a small squishy sponge ball (classic trick ball), that he just has squeezed in his right hand the whole time. Notice how his right hand is in a fist like he's holding something until the red ball is revealed. And he only uses the thumb and first finger to hold the black cloth.

      Actually it would have been easier if the ninja girl dressed in colours that blended in better with the surroundings, like a real ninja would've done. =P
      She should've been wearing beige clothes and white boots or something like that.

    The red ball is collapsible foam and was in his right hand.
