+Angelo Robledo If you are a native English-speaker, you may not know it, but actually English is a language which is extreeeeemely easy to learn from scratch, at least when it comes to acoustic understanding. Especially in a rich, European country like Austria, chances are high that even an average 16-year-old would be able to understand at least 80% of this, the sarcasm and humor in it included. I guess the real problem with this performance in Vienna is, that not everyone can really appreciate its very dry humor, me included. In Germany and Austria, we are unfortunately used to a much "simpler" kind of comedy, to put it nicely. ^^ And the combination of a good, but rather unusual comedy-act and somewhat impressive, but rather unfunny magic tricks is a little bit problematic. So, I think these could be some of the reasons why the audience wasn't freaking out like hell. But it had most likely not much to do with the language. (:

You missed the most beautiful and blatantly in your face slight of hand XD - When Ball #3 is revealed under the right hand cup and Lime #1 is placed underneath, first he did a fake pass again (like before): Ball #3 is still in the right hand, which then grabs the pen while he talks about making the other ball appear. Nothing goes into the pocket, but the Lime #2 is taken out. - Ball #1 is revealed under the left hand cup. The pen is dropped to allow the right hand's index finger and thumb to pick up the cup while Ball #3 is still inside the right hand. The cup is passed to the left hand and the right hand picks up Ball #1 to distract from the left hand placing Lime #2 underneath the cup. At that moment there's both a hidden Ball #3 and a visible Ball #1 held by the right hand. Now here comes the great part: - Ball #1 is passed to the now empty left hand. There's one ball in each hand, Ball #3 still hidden in the right hand. - He throws the visible Ball #1 up to lead all attention to it and to prime the throwing motion. - He catches Ball #1 and _places his thumb on it to secure it!_ - In a throwing motion, all attention still being on the left hand, _he simultaneously fake throws with the left hand and throws the hidden Ball #3 up from the right hand_ The move is executed beautifully and even on camera it's hard to catch! xD Ball #3, now visible while Ball #1 is hidden in the left hand is caught by the right hand again. The switch is made! :D After this he moves the hidden Ball #1 to the right hand in a move that is unfortunately not caught on camera, and with both Ball #1 and Ball #3 in the right hand he can do the mitosis trick, revealing that what seemed just one ball were actually two! In my opinion this was the most beautifully executed part of the whole performance. Better than the three limes even.

Poor guy's hands were shaking the whole time. Weird to see someone so talented and seemingly confident be so nervous. Very humanizing.

People say that "when you learn how the trick works the magic disappears" but for me the magic starts the moment I know how the person did it. Especially when it involves Sleight of Hand. I'm fairly confident I could see every move he did to achieve the final moment, since this is a very simple trick, and even though I know this I feel even more amazed than if I didn't know it.

But I realized that the most important thing about magic is confidence - the guy never shows any hesitance, you never notice he's even doing something with those cups because he just doesn't show that he attaches importance to the small gestures, like when he takes the balls or lifts the cups etc. Absolutely genius, I've learned a lot.

That was when I noticed the moments when he put the balls and limes under the cups. :) And bit by bit I figured out almost all his tricks with the balls and cups.

The crowd is quieter due to the editing for the video in reality the crowd was much more cheerful and laughing alot Source: some people who went to watch this irl

I've seen him do this routine of his at least 4 times (over multiple years) and it's still great, because it's funny. Modern magic is less about the trick and the unbelievable and more about the show and the jokes. And he's still funny :)

The essence of this presentation is really his sense of humor, wonderful stage presence!!!

For the first trick, you just have to look closely and observe. There seems to be some kind of weight attached to the on the other end of the string. As soon as he lifts, the stick up, the weight falls back and the thread retracts.

His name is Connor. He is the android sent by Cyberlife.

TED talks are a portrait of humanity: starts off with the ambition to change the world through knowledge, ends up with magic tricks for the oi polloi.

Rewatching it in half speed. First couple tricks are easy to catch on and then even with half speed I can't see it, really impressive.

first trick a classic one, inside the sticks is a weight so every time he lifts them up, the weight pull back the rope, second one also a verry common in every city square, usually performed with 3 cups. Kyle, good technique and performance !

I totally relate to his sense of humor :D

The mitosis joke gave me flashbacks of a magician in a restaurant coming to my family's table to entertain us (He was made to go from table to table and repeat his tricks, it wasn't a place designed for entertainment). I doubted every single thing he was doing, until he brought out a tiny sponge rabbit. He did a few tricks with it, I wasn't particularly impressed, then he asked me to hold out my hand, and he gave me the rabbit. He told me to cup it between my hands, and I did so. Continuing his jokes, he said "But be careful. Rabbits are known to multiply". And in that instant, I felt my hand fill rapidly, and I parted my hands to find about a dozen tiny tiny rabbit sponges. The original was still there, among them. To this day, I cannot figure how he did it.

that was amazing. The whole thing. performance, deliverance everything. Truly shows how blind we can be. My respect for this talented showman.

@De Day: Why should the audience member have been premediated? As he says, the choice A or B does not matter, it is just about what happens after that. You choose A: He goes on like in the video. You choose B: He says something like: "So we make ball A disappear and bring him to his friend B" He did not say what he will do after you made your decision. That was just pure PR bla bla stuff to interact with his audience. As he said the choice did not matter!

Personally penn and teller showing the trick added more to the trick for me. The real magic for me is knowing how its done and the amount of practice and skill it takes to do tricks. Its like chop cup. Thats cups and balls with just 1 cup and one ball. But if the person is good enough they can fool you even if you know all the moves. Now this guy isnt as smooth with cups and balls as ive seen many other be but its such a simple trick and like he said it shows blindspots. Even if you know how a trick is done you just sometimes cant catch it. Obviously his moves were noticeable but not on a large stage lol.

@billpuppies

Yeah, I was disappointed to see it was nothing more than "cups and balls" with a one paragraph summary of an old psychology study that is actually unrelated to the trick. I was looking out for a "surprise" and still did not miss a single time he slid a ball/lemon under the cups.

I love the way this guy talks. He probably has tons of girls that love him too. I would love to date someone like him. His intelligence is the perfect mixture of humor and beauty. He creates master pieces just by opening his mouth.

His humor is amazing, almost as much as his magic skills.

Greatly enjoyed watching your presentation and flawless performance on the tricks. I ultimately received your overall message and appreciate your time on stage. Thank you for sharing. May God wish you many more wonderful moments to share ❤️.

O.K. great, he took the opportunity to display his talent to get recognition because logically TED talk is for people who do research, meetings, write books or want to share their experiences but a magician can best do magic so he did that. No hatred but still his talk did not reveal any new idea or even share any preconceived idea that is unknown to people, he just amused us. He just talked through the magic to make it look more consistent with the stage, that's it.

Give this guy a Netflix special already

I love this guy, his humor is wonderful, and I dont care how many times I see the tricks or hear the jokes, I am always entertained.

I love how the audience is unsure whether they should laugh during his patter. At times their hesitation is excruciating as one person laughs and fades out as another starts to clap and they to slowly fade out. 🎉

I have seen the cups and balls tricks so many times and in some many variations that i was following to perfection and predicting everything that was happening. At the end, i was convinced that the cup in the left had 2 balls, the one had something bigger (impossible to know which kind of prop are they using until they show). No idea where the third one came from. This guy is good.

This is the best TEDx talk i've seen in a long time.

He's an amazing presenter.

The best intellectual product produced by this act was exposing the fact that too much focus on intellect can mske people cold.

I have loved Kyle since he was on Penn and Tellers FU. Just a great delivery.
