Harry was a genius and it's so wonderful to see him memorialized like this. Harry lives forever in or minds and hearts.

This is one of my favourite routines R I P Harry you were one of the best , Love the hat

[@dhorus28]

Saw him do this trick in 97 at the Comedy and Magic club . Great trick almost passed out watching it . He did it a bit different at the end he showed how it was done. You'll be missed Harry.

Harry Anderson is awesome.

[@Valkonnen]

This is one of the best illusions of all time, and it's so simple.

@nmarsh This is taken from his Showtime comedy special "Hello Sucker" (1986)

[@aloysiusbelisarius9992]

I SO remember that Showtime special, along with another time before this that he performed that trick. I would just love to learn that trick; it's such a shame that Harry is gone now.

An intelligent and likeable man with charisma

[@icbm7]

He did a version on SNL that was different but also good. Can't find it on KZbin.

[@OfficialMaxxxDevil]

@nmarsh this was shot at the comedy and magic club in Hermosa Beach , CA

[@Amastermagician]

He's like none other!

I met him in London

[@vanessahdepp1]

@TennantJunkie1993 Well...DT is someone I adore much...and Harry is a great Entertainer...so why not?! HAHA! GREAT!

[@cavalierfan1995]

lady:can you put it somewhere else? harry:dont ask a question you dont want here the answer to btw the bells make it more dramatic

[@stephenwoehr3116]

He had a better reply than I would have given. "I COULD put it through YOUR arm."

[@williammazion8047]

I know...I liked that.💯💯💯

[@terriemcnulty]

Tip to the video maker: lose the slow motion and the tolling bell. When you’re showing a film of a professional comedian, don’t mess with his timing.

[@squireob]

That's in the original special.

[@rzeka]

When is this from?

[@richardjoltes6653]

His 1986 special "Hello Sucker." Someone posted the whole thing on YT, so you can see the rest of the tricks.

[@vanessahdepp1]

@TennantJunkie1993 YOU TOO?!

[@daytonville]

It's an illusion. It's like the economic recovery. It could be happening...but it ain't. So fitting for right now. To all the magicians, I have a question: Is that Tina Lenert in the front row that takes the needle out of his arm?

[@SpaceMasterRahel]

This is going to kill me...... I am SOO curious as to how he did this!! Any ideas people?

[@brycetharp4057]

Notice how the two pins go into the same hole in the arm and no where else.

[@Valkonnen]

It's a very simple trick . The ball on the end of the special needle is a squeeze bulb that holds fake blood which comes through specially cut channels in the needle. He puts two lines of rubber cement on his arm and when pushed together the contact holds and you can't see a crease, even up close. He can then push the needle through the channel and on cue pump the blood. That towel that he wiped the blood off with also rolled off the dried cement in one shot and he showed a clean arm. Sorry it took 8 years to get the answer, but I just saw it now.
