WES THEME SONG: open.spotify.com/album/7qpQ0k... (By Eric Vanier)
Wes Barker is a Canadian magician and comedian doing funny tricks, and telling great stories. Watch here for hilarious magic, stunts, and pranks. I am the funniest magician that is also a stand-up comic, or maybe I'm the comic who is best at magic. Either way you get the idea. I tour all over doing colleges, comedy clubs, and corporate events. Catch the adventures and tricks right here. With this magician / comedian based out of Vancouver and Toronto, Canada. I make funny stuff. That’s my only rule. Everything has to be funny, from street magic to stage illusions, as long as there is a joke to be made. I do magic tricks, sketches, stand-up comedy, card tricks, mind reading, and tricks with naked people. I’ve been on America’s Got Talent, Penn & Teller: Fool Us, MTV Greatest Party Stories Ever, and Wizard Wars. You can find me pulling pranks on friends, gags on strangers, or just general sleight of hand, magic, illusions, and the occasional bar bet. Wes Barker also hosts a podcast with Chris Ramsay called Bottom Of The Barrel. Go check it out!

You just know that Jennifer has seen Chris do that trick like 5 times now.

[@Cyba_IT]

She played the part well looking genuinely embarrassed for him and then legit shocked when he finally got it. She is an actress though of course.

[@seanissomething]

Super impressed with Chris Pratt. The reaction he got from a boring-ass trick. Just shows how much difference it can make when you are a super engaging person.

I remember that a promotional thing for House With The Clock in The Walls had the on-set magic consultant get into a magic trick battle with Jack Black,

[@ohyeahitsthatguy9454]

Sounds more interesting than the actual movie.

[@Cyba_IT]

I just love Chris Pratt's one. The first time I saw it I was just awestruck by his charisma and perfect timing. Jennifer helped by playing the part perfectly as well. Not sure if it was rehearsed or not but the whole bit was just golden.

[@Zajarism]

Wes "so much panting" Also Wes (off camera) "stealing that sound bite for ... professional uses later, ya, ya, professional uses."

[@xixXxxXxix]

It might be because I'm also a Barker, but this is my favourite series on KZbin right now. Love your content man!

[@cristonsloan]

These particular videos are quickly becoming something towards which I truly look forward, much like one would look forward to a favourite TV show back in the day when new episodes aired once a week. Also loving the Wes and Chris collaborations - truly appreciate the unique and comedic way in which your minds work. Keep it up mate, lovin' it.

The gimmick in the first trick is something Paul Harris had released some years back based on an old trick that used to come in the TV magic set in the 1970's.

[@diegom7624]

The reason Harry is being exicuted is because he does magic! Neil Patrick Harris sounds like his doing karate and is constipated

To give some context to the Daniel Radcliffe clip, 1. It was a British Quiz show called QI, which is a panel show with 4 celebrities being asked questions by Stephen Fry (the guy in the hat). It's a bit more complicated than that, but the rest isn't really relevant. For more info visit en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QI 2. Each episode of QI has a theme. The theme of this episode was Hocus Pocus. 3. The trick was done at the end of the show after the main format (mostly trivia questions) was finished. All four panellists performed a trick. If I remember rightly, the other two panellists did the saw a person in half trick. 4. Stephen asked Daniel: "Have you finished the last two movies yet?" The episode was filmed in 2010, before the last Harry Potter film was released. 5. Graham says "He found Dorothy, now he's killing Harry Potter!" Earlier that year, Graham hosted a TV talent show to find an actress to play Dorothy in a stage show of The Wizard of Oz. 6. Immediately after the trick, the credits rolled, and they showed his head in a basket afterwards. They never confirmed that he was OK and he hasn't appeared in an episode since. (FYI - he was ok and you can look up how the trick is done online)

Stephen Fry the host in the clip where Graham beheads Daniel, he is a member/honorary member of the magic circle for his work with magic and that he has never told how he does the tricks.

[@soundninja99]

Actors and tv personalities should collab with magicians more often. You get expert performers and expert technical magicians... Basically NPH as a duo

[@Mardigrasman23]

Thes are some of my Favorite videos

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Season 4 Episode 5. The episode opens with a magic trick performed by Jadzia Dax (Terry Farrell) where she produces an egg. And then produces a strip of latnum from behind Quark's (Armin Shimerman) ear.

Daniel in Guillotine stems from the british comedy quizzy show QI Quite Intetesting and was taken from the episode M Magic, if I am not mistaken.

Correction: QI XL Hocus Pocus

Hi sir I think next video will be magicians doing magic😅😅😅lol

[@somerandomchannel382]

I'm just gonna go out on a limb here and talk about last clip with "Hulk". When you're an actor your purpose it not to sell a perfect trick, but a enjoyable performance. We all heard how Mark Ruffalo accidently had his phone on during a video premiere of none released movie. He is purposely goofy because that's what we like most. A perfect specimen is envied, a flawed specimen is likeable, because he level with us. This is why all actors ( in Disney ) act like overgrown Peter Pans.. because it is the energic adults with teenagers emotions that we enjoy most - based on statistics. "Mark Ruffalo Accidentally Live-Streams a Portion of 'Thor: Ragnarok' by Instagram Mistake" This is a not an accident. it is a "trick" - studios just got gold advertisement because now everyone knows about the movie. Seeing the last clip it reminds me more of a spoof from "The office" - after the trick, low claps, no music, it isn't an accident. it purposeful. Most humans has reactions triggering emotions, studios know what reactions they give us, and those spoofs are created by the top leading science, math and economics personals, and that is the biggest magic trick.

[@kepeekoala2351]

@Stephanie Hallberg one thing i wanted to point out is that mark ruffalo really seems not to view himself as famous at all, more down to earth, which is why im guessing he had less flare and spontaneity

[@somerandomchannel382]

@@kepeekoala2351 If you think so. Go back and watch his carrier from 1989 until today. He is an actor. He act outside the role. All marvel actors does this - it is so so obvious =) , and of course we love it.. i love that too. He is a nice guy outside the movie, and in public places, but im absolutely sure he is different in more normal scenarios.

[@abigaildespina4689]

He probably doesn't want to tell us all the magicians' secrets

[@dancole5795]

To be fair to Mark Ruffalo, his seemed a little more spur-of-the moment, whereas the others seemed to have had a little more prep time.

[@TheMarsuMan]

As a complete beginner magician, I was so bummed when you said you hated Chris Pratt's trick, because I love it :). I suppose it's probably easier to sell as a beginner because friends just expect you to fail miserably, and you appear to do so, whereas for a P&T fooler, people won't buy you messed up so bad. I'm glad you changed you mind at the end ;). I love these videos man, please keep them coming :D

[@WesBarker]

Chris Pratt as won me over on that trick. I thought it sucked but now I think it’s pretty great again.

[@kobypourciaux1066]

He wasn’t saying the trick was bad on its own, just that it’s bad by a magician’s standards since it’s usually one of the first tricks people end up learning when they first get into magic. The trick is obviously cool to people who don’t know anything about magic, but when u have years of practice with magic, u end up realizing how basic the trick is.

[@bolmy_official6013]

After doing that trick neil said suck on that David blaine...😆
