    Actually, now that I think about it, doesn't this trick only work when you have water dripping from a consistent spot, like a faucet? Rain drops are distributed randomly, so even if you used a strobe light, unless every next raindrop happened to fall in the exact same place with the exact same timing as the previous ones, the effect wouldn't work...

There is no possible way in physics with the random motion of air and water turbulence to have thousands of water droplets at different position in space to all synchronize in drop rate . Also the biggest thing is if they use a rain machine, the only thing they need to do to stop the rain is to stop the machine lol no need for some kind of trick with strobe light lol

    It's been a while since I've seen the films, so maybe it's already been done, but a scene like that could be interesting, where it looks like one has been caught mid-trick, but in reality that was also another trick. Like if he opened it and Thaddeus was crouched there, he grabbed him by the collar to yank him up and just yanked up a suit with nothing inside and he was gone. It feels like something they either have done and I forgot, or they should have done just to wind up people who want to complain about minor things. *cough* sins of the cinema variety *cough*

    The piranha tank trick is slightly more plausible to pull off. Piranhas aren't inherently that agressive so they probably wouldn't attack her just for entering the tank. Then all you need is a bubble/wirlpool effect, sone red dye and a trap door at the bottom of the tank for her to escape from and you're good.

    In the banana trick, the banana literally just vanishes between frames, effectively the same as the firepoker and curtain tricks during the first film. Therefore, Jack Wilder is capable of opening rifts between dimensions and easily travelling through the fabric of timespace, but that is still not as impressive as Merrick twitching his eyebrow and knocking a man unconscious

    the fact that they never outright confirmed if those were "real magic" or just super cool tricks themselves was one of my favorite things about the first movie. all the explanation in that one were just done by thaddeus, meaning that they're pretty much just speculations since we never actually saw the process happen outside of his point of view. I liked how ambiguous everything was, showing that even in the end, the magicians never revealed their tricks. them just retconning all that bummed me out when I saw the sequel

So basically his wife is completely frozen and can't move and has to live through her memories being sold.

But with his luck and skills as a performer, he hilariously managed to convince everyone he's a talented wizard so much that he's seen as the chosen one who'll fight some ancient evil or something.

If king Kong is a bad example just replace it with the hulk. I don't understand when people are amazed by a fictional entities strength. Like it get it might surprise you or something but..... otherwise just wait till the end of the movie or whatever, and just take the whole story as it is, there's not really anything "amazing" when the topic being discussed is just being made up with no limitations applied from the start.

    The Pirannah trick is actually pretty explainable when you realize that actual piranhas don't eat people, so you swap her with a body double with a trick tank of some kind, start flailing for drama, light up a few blood packets, and the actual magician hides in the audience. The hardest part would be when and how they did the swap, but considering actual magicians have found ways to do similar things, so it's workable.

    The piranha trick could work like this in real life: LED screen on hydraulics. blood capsules. and trap door. The top tank has water in it with an led screen that makes it "look" like it's a see through container, but its not. When it opens up the water covers the front of the glass container for a bit that faces the audience, masking her for a bit. When this happens it turns on the led screen on hydraulics. It comes out of the floor behind the glass, but the tank actually has its own section built into it that is see through but has a top and second layer of glass behind it so that water can't get in. (Think of like those mugs that you put in the freezer that have liquid in them already) The water covering the front part would mask any inconsistencies in positioning between her in real life and her pre recorded video. She then squeezes the blood capsules to match the video. Then, while its playing, she is actually sent through the trap door at the bottom to then reappear in the audience. There never were piranhas. 😎 And you wouldn't even need a body double. 👍

So she goes down into the inner tank, the fish start moving, she flails around to work up some bubbles and sets off the blood pellets for drama, and then she slips out the trap door and into the crowd in the chaos. Even if the water drained out from the inner tank, you wouldn't really be able to see a difference because there'd be water in the outer tank, as well, I think.

    Something a lot of grand illusion magicians attest to is being able to simply walk through the crowd and nobody notice them at all. In the tricks where they disappear from stage and reappear in the crowd, they quite literally do just walk into it and nobody notices because everybody is distracted. Also, piranhas have no desire to eat living things unless they are starved immensely, and really won't eat at all if they're already full. Also I'm pretty sure they were implying the driver of the truck was already hypnotized to fall asleep when he saw Merit. The rest of the movie and the sequel is pretty much impossible.
