Real Magician Reacts to TV Show Magic!!

[@SparJar]

"She never once went over to his side of the table." Literally at the start of the scene she was there, lol.

[@madoniaart1744]

Yeah, and you can clearly see her hand on his wrist while she’s kissing him

[@taylorm8439]

18 seconds in she was over the table and you can see her touch his wrist.

[@prashil3k594]

Believe it or not. It's the seeing Phil do magic got me into Magic 4 years ago. Not even kidding.

[@WesBarker]

That’s incredible!!

[@LeclericShow]

Amazing

[@paperbackenthusiast]

Season 11, episode 4 is SO GOOD for magician Phil content, hope you do more of these reactions one day. Such a beautiful little bit in the show over the years

[@xandergrace9509]

I took your advice and tried the paper wadded up trick... totally worked! My 3 yo never had a chance!

[@WesBarker]

hahaha 👍 perfect

[@salomonvainstein8353]

Great video! Eric Stonestreet (the one who was drumming and did the ball trick at the end) actually does magic, so he probably helped with the effects.

[@WesBarker]

Aaaaah! Makes sense.

[@clare1927ellis]

The last trick is just bringing back Wes shoe throw memories from your college tours... Best everrrr

[@duckylolzor]

Wish Phil was my dad

[@thepug991]

My dads and grandfather are named Phil and we joke that we wish Phil was both my dad and his

[@Chicken_Done]

Wish Wes was my dad

[@LeclericShow]

HOW DARE you just stop and say 'UGH IM RAMBLING' when it was the part I wanted to hear the most! Damn you Wesley

[@WesBarker]

😆 it’s hard to tell what part people are interested in!

[@LeclericShow]

Hello! Big fan here! Love these videos! Please send me 2ND coffee! 🇮🇳

[@Andrew_TheReelDeel]

I love the series and all of your other videos you do. Wait correction I love the podcasts with Chris more but I still love these reaction videos!! You’re the best Wes and no doubt I’m gonna get some BOB merch when it comes out!

[@WesBarker]

Hell yeah! Thanks Andrew 🙌🏻

[@missmeow4658]

Really enjoying this series and your reactions. Also, i have to admit I fell down a rabbit hole one sleepless night and found your “greatish magic show” 1 hour video. DUUUUDE, you’re an awesome performer.

[@WesBarker]

Well thank you very much 🙂🙂🙂

[@propheticjoe]

The funny part about them using that wadded paper trick for me is that I just watched Wes' Greatish magic show where he literally does that trick to a guy on stage. Awesome.

[@anirudhkaimal5127]

You've gotta react to "Deception". It's a magic centric show!

[@jonmayer]

I love Phil's character. My favorite.

[@buzattopedro]

I fucking love this series so much!! Keep it up Wes

[@bge1234]

It's an awesome show. Hilarious at the right times, serious when it needs to be, and I don't think there's a week actor among the cast.

[@IsaacMasterson]

Penn is in another episode of modern family I think it's in season 7 and he does magic for phil

[@RichardTallent]

Modern Family is highly binge-able... we didn't get into it until at least a few seasons in. Great writing, incredible cast. And yes, Phil's love of magic is one of the most adorable things about his character.

[@winrajunus6879]

You really should watch this series. Phil is most probably the best dad character ever written for TV.

[@sanjayshetty5640]

You should also talk about past magicians like Doug Henning, Blackstone Jr and other great magicians.

[@jasonmarshall4966]

Hey Wes, great video as per usual, but I think you missed the first part of the first video. They do show her hand around his sleeve when she leans in to kiss him, before she sits. It's only a brief shot, and I'm not familiar with de-watching techniques, but if she had Blaine skills, I think the scene adds up if you rewatch it..haha

[@love.wildly.live.fearlessly]

The end whete he throws the paper ball I immediately thought about how you do this with your shoe and other props it's so funny.

[@WesBarker]

🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@Mendozer7502]

In the 1st vid. She definitely did do the quick change. If you look you can see her clothes under the table. Can even see her white shirt and overalls. 0:53

[@ZevEisenberg]

I’d love to see you team up with the crew at Corridor Digital. They do reaction videos for VFX and stunt work, and I think it would be cool to revisit some of the combination clips you’ve done (or some new ones) and explore where the magic ends and the CGI begins.

[@darss10]

You should watch the seen where Luke (Phill's son) is chained up to the seiling and is able to unchain himself in seconds!

[@xnohr4]

Will you review the magician episode of Rick and Morty??? Funniest magician cameos ever. Love this series and all your content!

[@fikanera838]

🖤 Love these! Thankyou for the fun clips & great responses. It's grand! 🎩

[@matejshirtslover6006]

Next time you could react to some magic and mentalism from the show Mentalist (btw i love the show its soooo good) ❤❤

[@JRMurdock99]

Modern Family is well worth your time. Brilliantly done show.

[@DadBodDrumming]

"No magician is ever doing that".. ummm on the Carbonaro Effect we did a smoke bomb quick change just like that!

[@coryandrews4177]

I'd totally like to see more!

[@kevsil616]

Had to know who the consultant was too. Awesome to see it was Ed Alonzo

[@buzattopedro]

Wes, you should do a reaction of a video about “demon magic”, where some asian dude produces a bread out of a dough. Of course most of the stuff in there consists on CGI bs and paid audience, but it’s so funny 😂

[@joshuadaniel9379]

Your channel is DA BEST! Love you, Wes, very funny !!

[@WelshPaulJames]

The guy in the phone box was never wet!!

[@christoffersvedbo7614]

Guessing double glass something something...

[@varmintdiego]

There is WAY more magic done in this show than this! Would love to see more.

[@zack3135]

Anything from GOB in Arrested Development

[@LeclericShow]

Wes! It's Eric Leclerc here, one of the FUNNIEST all time magic scenes in Arrested Development is when Gob is just chilling at home in his magic room reading a book, he's sipping a drink and casually goes to put it on the table, but it's a black art well table and he just places in INSIDE the trap.. soooo good

[@cindybirck3744]

Love these videos! So interesting finding out what's real & what's show biz! Modern Family is one of my faves! Keep 'em comin'! 👏👏👏

[@sanjayshetty5640]

There was an episode where he met Penn. You'd love it. Teller was on The Big Bang Theory.

[@tobiassauer6009]

I Love this kind of series. Keep it up. It's very entertaining 😁

[@LeclericShow]

IS NO ONE GOING TO ASK WTF IS GOING ON IN THAT BACKGROUND? WHO ARE THOSE PEOPLE? WHERE ARE YOU? DID YOU GET A DIVORCE!??! Seriously where are you..... Edit: Just finished the video... Listen, i'm sorry I over reacted earlier. I should of finished the entire video before commenting. But to be fair, you'd think Cole would have a better MIC at his place.... Sounded like we were in a bathroom together, you sitting in the tub and me listening to you with a motorcycle helmet on.

[@WesBarker]

Hahahaha surprisingly few comments about it

[@Nian...]

​@@WesBarker I was also confused at first, but then remembered your post on IG yesterday 👍 Distracting is the 1st thing magician do, and that's why 2nd is always better than 1st 😂

[@WesBarker]

Hahaha that’s fair. For some reason we used my mic 🤷‍♂️

[@solwenner22]

@@WesBarker ...I think that's because we finished watching the video before commenting, but seriously, I was feeling just like Eric

[@xcho20]

7:12 You 100% can do it! Just off the top of my head: you use flat screens (instead of windows) and play prerecorded video. They never saw him physically enter the booth, and nobody touched the booth afterwards btw.

[@toneknee6139]

Yes this what ive been waitin for

[@TheAguydude]

Instant wet->dry is possible. Perform trick as usual, but adjust as follows: 1) Wear a wetsuit that does not cover exposed skin. Optionally, wet suit can be removed before putting on costume at the end of the trick (but this takes extra time). 2) Avoid getting hair/face wet (a little bit of moisture is fine if you have a hidden towel. Coating the bottom of your face with aerogel will probably help. 3) Coat arms/hands in aerogel particles. This is mostly invisible to the naked eye, though it is probably noticeable if you shake someone's hand. Step 3 can probably be replaced with a decent towel, though the aerogel approach is faster since it can be done before the trick starts. Actually doing such a trick is probably not worth the hassle. Maybe if you were trying to fool a magician?

[@michaeldecock3952]

Still, a wetsuit is pretty thick so would be difficult to hide underneath your clothes. Also, the wetsuit would be wet so you'd still have to dry that off (or take it off completely before going into the suit like you said but those are very tricky to take off fast) But indeed, probably not worth all the extra work.

[@ayokay123]

Love your take on this!

[@seanmcardle8196]

Dude how have you not watched modern family it's soo good

[@connorwarren7727]

Wes you have to watch Modern Family. One of the best shows on tv in the last 10 years

[@RainbowDemon]

7:43 could be like two glass one where the water is and one where he is to give the illusion of filling up?

[@pyratemage]

Love watching your reactions! I don't watch the show, but I definitely will watch your reactions. Well, unless I'm busy watching this other channel I found. It's this charming, and oh so witty, dark-haired Goddess making killer drinks. Love the 3-drink minimum. Not sure why she keeps a head in the microwave..... 😂🤣

[@TUFRIDEGPGT]

There are a few more scenes throughout that series.. In one of the episodes in the final season, Phil actually uses an invisible thread.

[@WesBarker]

wow! I didn't know!

[@TUFRIDEGPGT]

@@WesBarker Season 11 episode 8. He also uses it to float a piece of bacon earlier in the episode.

[@jasperrrr]

This guy deserves way more subs, keep it going man!!

[@MrLvngscrfc]

I feel like the water one could have worked if there was a chamber between phil and the audience that filled with water while where he was actually stayed dry.

[@GodfatherActua]

That's what it looked like to me too. Only the side panels where filling with water. Inside is dry.

[@gutzi_muc8396]

Me: I’m going to bed right now. Also me: Oh Wes put up another video... I have to watch it right now. And again it’s a good one! 🎉

[@stevebennett7094]

Itd be so perfect if phil was the magic consultant :)

[@WesBarker]

So perfect

[@ValouT]

Modern family is one of the greatest show I’ve watched. You really really should watch it.

[@jacobdanielson8442]

Have you broken down Arrested Development magic scenes yet? I couldn't see it in your list of videos. The magic in it is utterly ludicrous but Gob is my favourite fictional magician because of how crazy he is. Also, their use of Final Countdown is amazing.

[@thefrogman-ol1yp]

Deception is a literally a show about a magician, it's loaded with magic. David kwong, who did now you see mes magic, was the consultant

[@Bwares0571]

Only 10% likes to views when i watched this....... that's crazy. Once again great content. Funny and chilled to watch. Definitely deserves more.

Spoiler At 5:27 I bet you that there is an extra pain of glass. And they have a pump and hose inside the phone booth.

[@Mottenbros]

I enjoyed how you thought the drum solo was part of the illusion. If you watch the episode it'll be clear why that happens and it is hilarious!

[@WesBarker]

Oh hahaha... better go watch now!

[@davidquikpic6823]

Love your videos! The Phil-In-A-Phone booth thing could work if the water is actually just between two panes of glass, making it appear that he's immersed. That way he'd still stay dry. Thoughts?

[@Lauren-zi7rg]

This show is hilarious and you should watch

[@rays5163]

You can coat yourself in something so you never actually get wet for that phone booth escape.

These are great Wes!

Well, does he need to be in the tank? The phone booth doesn't need to be the tank, the tank could be in the phone booth and he is behind the tank in the phone booth completely dry. The helmet and course fabric uniform prevents many of the "wet" tells that would show a person getting wet.

I think the water trick could work if he is not actually in water but instead there is a thin gap in the glass filling with water. However, looking at the video it appears he is actually in water but it was a little hard to tell.
