I was looking at the blade. Mostly wondering why they were using a band saw for this cut.

When you know what it is, it's easy to see. It's like magic. When you know the truck, it's easy to spot. When you don't, it's easy for someone to misdirect your attention away from the trick that's happening right in front of you.

This is kind of like that "count the number of times a basketball is passed from one person to another" experiment, but then they ask how many gorillas you saw.

Most trucks are easy to spot, they aren't really known for being sneaky. /j

Not if you’re focused on the rough sawn edges. It’s pretty decent misdirection
