In fact, I'll go ahead and spoil the trick It's pretty basic, so I think no magician would mind. (SPOILERS BELOW) He conditions us by actually moving the coin to the other hand. The repetition then helps hide that he didn't transfer the coin the last time.

Look at his left hand. It looks relaxed, but look at his pinky and ring fingers. They're curled up. You can easily hold something that way. And he's very careful not to move his hand where you could see the other side. Compare that to how he moves his hand when it is definitely empty. It's actually a fairly common hand shape that magicians use. Once you learn about palming, it's hard not to notice.

One dude tried to do level 7 on me on the street - honestly he almost succeeded, I noticed the movement of my phone, held on to it and the thief retreated promptly. It was done so smoothly it took me a minute to process what was going on after he was gone.

He's extremely good at making the touch feel natural. I would also bet a lot of the places he touched the participants, they wouldn't be able to recall, since he kept redirecting their focus on other things, and the brain can't focus on all things at once. His charisma, social skills and good looks help make people be more relaxed around him also, so more touch is 'allowed'. Lastly, a key principal shown in level 2, he often directs their focus on what he is about to steal, and touches the thing, to make it less obvious, by actually making it seem 'too' obvious that he would do such thing. Think of hide and seek. If you are allowed to move around wile hiding, you drastically increase your chances of not being found, if you go to a place the seeker has just checked. They generally won't pay attention to that place again, before they've been to every other place.@@santiv4

@@TheCatMurgatroydit won’t happen where stealing could be xpected.. I drop my phone on counters all the time 🕰️ and Ofcourse I always have my eyes on it but if someone walked upto me real close I’d seek out my phone first cos I seee how this kinda theft is possible.

@@SupremeCyril same... I always check my pockets. But it will also happen where stealing is expected. My mom got her purse stolen in Barcelona... yeah, no kidding... she let it out of her eyes for a second and it was gone. That could've been expected.

prolly the most effective one, also the easiest apparantly.

Thank you for the tips dude! Going to use them in my next one for sure. 🥰

Thank you for the tutorial

The best and mind-blowing part of this video is the part where he stole other things alongside the tie without consenting or giving his audience prior notice. That's pure class. Dude pickpocketed our attention.😅

Instructions unclear, I'm in prison now

This guy came to my college to perform. He's quite literally amazing.

This man's talent to catch people off-guard is otherworldly

It's one thing to have the skills and dexterity to execute these moves, but to combine these with charisma and quick wits is honestly impressive.

thanks man, my career realy took off big time thanks to your tips and tricks

Thanks for tutorial ❤

8:40 I love the script where he is saying "watch" and is actually stealing the watch.

This is actually a science, and it is fascinating. He talks with so much knowledge and wisdom. A blessing, it would be, if we all could have this much passion for a subject.

Thank you so much for sharing your talents. I’m going off to Rome shortly and am preparing for the pickpockets there. You shared great ideas about theft proofing pockets and items in clothing.

Why does KZread want me to become a criminal?

This was wild and so entertaining to watch 😂 Wired always has amazing guests :0 I don’t know how he pervades such confidence whilst having to concentrate on so many things at once, it’s beyond impressive 😮

14:08 - Ben: "You've gotten this far in the video, which means that you know what all of that means..." Me: * feels for wallet * ..... "Oh no!!"

Thank you for this video.. It's really effective techniques.

What a great pick pocket tutorial! It helps my career a lot. Thank you very much.

sorry, would u mind to explain what that means? people seem to find it funny but i dont get it since english isnt my first language

What an interesting selection, WIRED. I enjoyed it

Thanks for the tutorial

Thanks for the tutorial! I might try it out tonight!

So is level 10 when you hold an active conversation with them and swap clothes without them noticing? Did pretty much everything else there 😂

2:41 love that moment of recognition 😂

Thank you for teaching me this valuable stuff

Thank you for giving me a new past-time activity in the city
