literal tears when I heard saw that part..

Kills me. Slays me. Every time.

[@jollycooperators9580]

Just realized I saw this man when I was on vacation in Denmark as a kid. Never knew who he was or saw anything of him since, until now. He made me cry with laughter. Cool to see him again, over a decade later!

[@SicketMog]

Yeah pretty funny guy (can't stand most magicians; this man keeps it light). He's been doing a show at Liseberg , Gothenburg for many years (not nowadays though).

[@dafreekofficial3427]

Yeah at Zulu comedy galla 🤣 this guy almost killed me, cause i couldn't breathe by laughing so hard 🤣😂 i don't really like magicians but this is fucking magic! 🤣😂

@@dafreekofficial3427 I recommend these ones as well: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qIO7eJqrbbSVndU kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGSTn4FsiLajfM0 Not as good I would say but saw him live at Liseberg a few years back (both of these were in his act) and the best part for me was that it was a daytime show and he made multiple small children in the audience cry and leave immediately during that first part; not doubt scarred.😂

[@rsguitar335]

I was fortunate to see Carl-Einer 18 years ago at a TAOM Convention. I had never heard of him, but have not laughed as hard at a magic comedy act since! Excellent entertainer!

[@CarlEinarHackner]

[@_BAD_MERC_]

His whole presentation and humility is absolutely hysterical. I'm getting the impression he's never listen to the cassette tape.

[@olddriver1402]

I took a massive gulp of water just as he took out the "bandana" and was trying so hard not to laugh and spit the water out. I failed 😂

[@PeterOlin]

I have seen this clip tens of times, and cry from laughter every time still.

I saw Copperfield do this trick on TV in the 80s when I was a kid, but Carl's presentation and personality just add to the hilarity.

[@TK-er2tw]

Do you know where the banana went?? 😅

[@imbetterthanyouis]

i remember that too , it was the great wall of china illusion special

[@privatename5788]

@@TK-er2tw In Copperfield's version, he was just holding it behind the purse he pretended to put it in. With this one, it's harder. I suspect a hidden pocket in the bandana. Makes sense why he mutilated the banana so badly until it was just a peel. It needed to go flat.

[@DjKorppi]

Oh this is so good

[@ChromeArty]

How refreshing this was! Wholesome and funny! Are rare combo really.

[@salcinicus9537]

Dont think Ive seen anyone walk a thinner line than this man. Impressive.

[@Tehkenny1]

I agree to that. I hate cringy stuff but he somehow pulled out the cringiest stuff without it being cringe.

[@AMARBHAVE]

The banana is STILL in the cloth. The cloth has a subtle and hidden compartment in which he put the banana and pressed it. Notice the cloth when he opens it and waves it towards the very end of the video before it puts it down on the floor. The cloth has a slight but visible thickness in the middle.

[@Zerbey]

The trick is something you can find in any magic shop, it's the presentation that's genius.
