This video reveals the secrets behind three scary magic tricks.
1. The Mentalist Sword Trick: The Brotherhood Trio performed this trick on Britain's Got Talent, where they jumped onto boxes, avoiding the one with a sword. The secret lies in the magician's earpiece, which receives information from an assistant backstage about the location of the sword. The envelopes used to select the boxes also had a gimmick, with the magician using sleight of hand to ensure the correct numbers were chosen.
2. The Supernatural Table Lift: Sacred Rihanna performed this trick on Asia's Got Talent, where a table lifted off the ground and floated in the air. The secret involves three assistants who are in on the trick, using a steel rod hidden in their sleeves to lift the table. The table is also made of lightweight material, making it easy to move. Rihanna also used mentalism to predict the judge's biggest fear.
3. The Cut-in-Half Illusion: Kevin James performed this trick on America's Got Talent, where he cut a patient in half and then joined them back together. The secret involves using a torso double, an amputee who plays the role of the patient. The lower half of the body is actually an assistant hiding in a secret compartment. The joining part of the trick involves switching the torso double with a fully functional assistant.
