1
00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:04,080
Speaker 1: Welcome to a very special edition of the Fitzing Weapon podcast.

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:06,600
Speaker 1: Not that special, to be honest, extremely special. Just the

3
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:09,640
Speaker 1: podcast and it's just behind the scenes of your magic trick.

4
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 1: It's not often that a magician, a professional, is prepared

5
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 1: to share his techniques with a wider community go on YouTube.

6
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 1: He does it regularly. Now he didn't get in first

7
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 1: for that one. Don't worry about that. I mean. The

8
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,520
Speaker 1: other levitating trick I heard the other day is where

9
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 1: you just put water on the ground in a circle

10
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 1: and then you stand back about a meter and take

11
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,160
Speaker 1: a photo. It looks like you're hovering above that water

12
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 1: that mark. Don't worry about that. We're not. I have

13
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 1: had so many questions of how does he do it?

14
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,520
Speaker 1: From who oh God? Look at the comments on Instagram.

15
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,479
Speaker 1: You were asking, then Jess in the studio was asking.

16
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,199
Speaker 1: That was something to do with the Sorry, is it

17
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: wrong to reveal how I did it? So many people

18
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 1: want to know. The question started when people saw the

19
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: footage and said, why do they have those baggy pants on?

20
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 1: Why is he wearing the old bog Catcher trackie decks?

21
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 1: You know, they didn't look great, wasn't flattering on my bum?

22
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 1: It didn't look natural, and that's why, unfortunately, I think

23
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 1: that the magic trick sort of fell fell. I think

24
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: it was a really strong trick. Ignore the feedback. I'm

25
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 1: trying to reveal how it was done. So what happens

26
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: to reveal this magic trick is when Jess walks in

27
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 1: and says he's going to levitate onto this box. It's

28
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: me standing in front of the box. Now what I

29
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: do is in my right leg the track suit pants

30
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:31,199
Speaker 1: of mystery, I have a split right down the middle.

31
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: So when I walk out, you see me from behind

32
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: and you think both my legs are in the track

33
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 1: suit pants or open inspection for a townhouse. When I

34
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,040
Speaker 1: first felt, you know, I thought that's what it was,

35
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: not the size of a townhouse. So what happens then

36
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: is when I go to levitate, I take my right

37
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: leg out of the pants, threw the split down the middle.

38
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 1: I put my feet together my shoes that are connected

39
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: with magnets built into the soiles of them, right into

40
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 1: the side of them. This is this is magic reveal.

41
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 1: So then I put my foot out of the split

42
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: in my pants, I step up onto the box. My

43
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 1: other leg connected by my feet with the magnets in

44
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 1: it lifts the shoes up and down the tracks of

45
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 1: pants from behind. Looked like my leg is in there,

46
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: but it's actually out on the box. Why I simply

47
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: step up and down from the box. I'm still confused.

48
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 1: You would be really tricky to get the pants right.

49
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: There was confusion on the night jests Explain to her

50
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: fits why you needed the ones up the top. The

51
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 1: ones were an art of distraction, all right, another magic

52
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: secret real clicking his heel back as he was trying

53
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: to get his foot out of the shoe, kicking back,

54
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 1: and you could see the whole trip. I didn't want

55
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 1: to reveal if you got the audio there jest of

56
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: me trying to get my pants right. There was some

57
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: panic backstage before the big moment, absolutely real panic. Crowns

58
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:07,119
Speaker 1: where's wallet? So first you forgot your pants? Know where iut?

59
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 1: And then he brings the pants back in. Keep in mind,

60
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: what did you makee poor Hughes you do up on

61
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,079
Speaker 1: the stage. I tied him to do a tight five

62
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 1: that turned into a tight ten. Every joke he had

63
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: and then this is what happened when we tried to

64
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 1: put the pants on. How would you be stock? I

65
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:44,119
Speaker 1: start with in two seconds, budd, it'tle bit hard to see,

66
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 1: but there was panic about where the legs should be

67
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: when I start the trick. So what you what you

68
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: see from behind? It looks like two legs floating above

69
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 1: the case. It's really only one carrying an empty shoe

70
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: and an empty leg of tracksuit pant. Is that it? Genius?

71
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: Is that it? Well, don't say, is that it? You

72
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: didn't do it. Don't look at a piece of art

73
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 1: and go, I don't get anyone can do that because

74
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 1: he didn't do it. Nobody else did it? Give me

75
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: more clues? Some would say fits the real magic trick

76
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 1: was getting him into kmart pants. Yeah, twelve dollars kmart pants.

77
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 1: I don't reckon. I level wear a trackie again, thank god.

78
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 1: But I'll tell you what. I asked the community not

79
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 1: to lash out at me for sharing the genius that

80
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: went into that trick. I asked you to embrace my

81
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: celebration of magic. And like I said last night, guys,

82
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: I want to make sure everybody else believes that there's

83
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 1: magic within themselves. You too can levitate, just like Whippers

84
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: and Whipper
