Brain Magic

Rating: *****

This Ted talk was very interesting and entertaining to watch. It shows us how our brain can do things that even we didn't know it could. In this video, Keith Barry performs "Brain Magic." Unlike other tricks, this doesn't involve trick decks or special boxes. He merely uses his hands and a few props. It was almost disconcerting how he pulled off the tricks. The one disappointment was that none of his tricks were revealed. What I mean by that is that the video wasn't very informative. The way he did things was interesting, but the audience never learned how the brain does the things that it did. I highly recommend this video to anyone who either likes figuring out magic tricks, or who likes to be impressed.
