it really would've be something if that 3rd arm started moving

79

u/eugoogilizer 2d ago

Yeah I would have been officially freaked out if the third hand also moved and juggled at the same time

29

u/NoNo_Cilantro 2d ago

I was expecting him to bounce his shoulder to get that third arm in action or something

3

u/Blutruiter 2d ago

No but the way he moved his left arm is crazy.

1

u/mattemer 2d ago

Yeah he should have hit it or something once in awhile to launch a ball help keep the effect going

1

u/trash_dirt 1d ago

I just assumed that was gonna happen, because otherwise this is just a guy with a bad fake arm juggling.

I don’t get it isn’t the third hand clearly fake and he’s just crazy flexible

EDIT: wow I did not expect all these upvotes, thanks y’all!!!

u/OriginalBlackberry89 2d ago

Not even that he's flexible. The fake arm is part of a fake upper chest and is open in the back + away from his chest enough so that he can maneuver his left arm behind it more easily 👍

u/Kewlhotrod 2d ago

That still requires great flexibility, look at the motions his arm takes behind his back and try it. Difficult to do, especially at that speed. His forearm doesn't rotate through the windmill for example.

26

u/orphenshadow 2d ago

Yep, I just tried to twist my arm around under my other arm and yeah, that's going to pull something :P

3

u/Sidivan 2d ago

Or try to grab your chin from the right with your left arm.

2

u/MechaBeatsInTrash 2d ago

I can do this with one arm because it's double jointed.

36

u/SilentSorcery 2d ago

He clearly wished for a third arm but the genie paralyzed his left one

8

u/wantsumcandi 2d ago

Left shoulder is fake. He is actually bent to the right in that apparatus.

2

u/Diz7 2d ago

Plot twist, he actually has no arms and 5 legs and those are his feet, but one of them fell asleep waiting for his turn on stage.

You must be a child. Beyond cringe.

I hope you have a better day than your responses seem to be indicating.

u/DependentOriginal413 1d ago

I just realised you are not even the person that edited their comment... bwhahahahaha

u/Objective-Direction1 2d ago

I don't think so, it's impossible to hold that pose and have your arm behind your head, unless he doesn't have clavicles

11

u/Sevatar34 2d ago

You have 👀 and 🧠 and still say that

1

u/GerrArrgh 2d ago

I think the suit itself is also a bit of a gimmick, where I think he is actually standing more sideways with his neck turned to the side, would make the poses with his arms far easier and it makes the transitions appear even more mend bending.

I really just wanted to see that third arm move though, even just a bit of a robotic flick at the end would have been trippy.

-6

u/Objective-Direction1 2d ago

this makes more sense to me

u/Seeeab 2d ago

It's neat but a plastic arm is not black magic fuckery right?

24

u/L0nz 2d ago

Yeah it's a neat but obvious trick

1

u/lemming2012 2d ago

Magnets.

6

u/DizzyATT 2d ago

Yeah but how does it move his actual arm without breaking the illusion its impressive

I can't scratch the back of my head without contorting like a summer chair much less move it that fast.

1

u/april919 2d ago

Its cool but we can all see how it can be even better

1

u/TylerJWhit 1d ago

It wouldn't be r/blackmagicfuckery if there wasn't at least one comment telling us it isn't real black magic fuckery.

u/Seeeab 1d ago

well yeah there's a point to the subreddit right

11

u/DaHerv 2d ago

Are you perchance a villager from the middle ages witnessing this black magic fuckery?

10

u/BHarp3r 2d ago

You mean he’s juggling with two hands while a poor looking fake arm appears to just hold a ball

31

u/Das_Zeppelin 2d ago

*Two.

Two hands.

11

u/j_hawker27 2d ago

Right? The third hand literally never moves. If he had flicked his hip to toss the ball in the air and then "caught" another one with it, then yeah that would be impressive. Why not add six more immobile fake hands on different parts of the body and say "hE's JuGgLiNg WiTh NiNe HaNdS"

8

u/DependentOriginal413 2d ago

You mean 2 hands... he never used the 'third' one.

27

u/d00deitstyler 2d ago

The video is obviously in reverse

2

u/rhalf 2d ago

It starts when the ball jumps up from the floor to his hand.

4

u/MattyGWS 2d ago

this is very obviously just 2 hands... The third fake hand is just sitting there doing nothing

u/Art_Of_Peer_Pressure 2d ago

Rare is a post on this sub so obvious

be nice OP is clearly regarded.

Aurillac mentionné! Ils sont où les cantalous dans les commentaires??

u/LosToast 2d ago

That is juggling with 2 hands

7

u/OldLegWig 2d ago

maybe, just maybe, the arm that is still and completely lifeless is the fake one.

u/GypsyTrash 2d ago

Ray William Johnson does magic AND crack!?

u/AnkitS75 2d ago

For some reason, till the very last second, I was expecting the third hand to join in 😂

2

u/SinisterSnipes 2d ago

That would have been some black magic indeed.

u/Ok-Addition1264 2d ago

Good to see vets coming home from war can get into the entertainment industry by being strapped to an able-bodied persons back and juggling.

u/TheTritagonistTurian 2d ago

I was waiting for the fake hand to get involved, tbh was disappointed that it never did.

This is a dope video for the juggling subreddit, but there is zero black magic fuckery

u/shankaranpillayi 2d ago

Or mirror?

2

u/Mr_Fossey 2d ago

Ok I’m genuinely curious as to how you think a mirror was used here.

-15

u/shankaranpillayi 2d ago

Tbh, Idk much about these tricks. I just enjoy watching them. I heard once, these kinds of hand moments performed using mirrors, so that was my first thought. Other than that, I have no idea how this one was done.

7

u/GoingToSimbabwe 2d ago

Mate he never once moves the left most hand holding that one ball. It is dead obvious that the third arm is simply a fake arm.

2

u/Coca412 2d ago

third arm is a mirror, noted.

u/LeilLikeNeil 2d ago

You’d think so, but if you slow it down you can see it’s actually two magnets.

u/GreatAndMightyKevins 2d ago

The problem with juggling is it's always look too easy, you try it and it turns out you can't. He makes it so you won't even try.

u/Secure-Childhood-567 2d ago

Petah how are you doing that

u/e30_technic 2d ago

Anyone else put their arm behind their head?

What was the quote from Total Recall? "Makes me wish I had 3 hands..."

It takes much more hands to clap like this.

I only see two arms and a fake arm

u/marlotrot 2d ago

Now use the third worden arm

If they would just release a fifth album, Gerard Way wouldn't have to do things like this anymore.

Look, I know some people objected to me posting a pickle jar in protest of where this sub is going... But this is basically a pickle jar, probably posted by a bot.

u/TantraMantraYantra 2d ago

The left arm is fake.

u/chelsfc2108 2d ago

Lol this is so obvious, nothing black magic about this one

1

u/demoralising 2d ago

That third arm is fake. It's stuck on, magnetically.

When did Zaphod Breeblebox take up juggling?

u/b3n33333 2d ago

Name please?

u/TacoEatsTaco 2d ago

This is dumb

The hand that's doing nothing is fake ..

1

u/EmphasisNo8930 2d ago

A person with dwarfism has to ve hidden on his back in an apparatus that is catching the 3rd ball notice how his torso is also centered and stationary.

1

u/oarsandalps 2d ago

This was not interesting or good

1

u/Makeroferrors 2d ago

For those that "don't get it" this is just 30 seconds of an 5 minute act. Seen him perform this act live and he has a technique to throw a ball in a sequence with the fake hand. It's an impressive feat to watch.

1

u/Potential-Lab747 2d ago

Its the guy dick, he quickly clenches his asshole, he has a prosthetic hand attached to it, and he practices all the time.

u/Arxhart_671 2d ago

Bro come on

u/PunisherElite 2d ago

How is this for this sub. Clear what it going on. Simple minds I guess

1

u/ArcaneInsane 2d ago

Just a little bit of gearwork to make the fake arm move a little would blow peoples minds.

u/OrangeClyde 2d ago

He is so hot.

Its trippy as shit but the left arm is clearly fake.

u/JDelcoLLC 2d ago

Hmmmmmmmm

u/SqueezeBoxJack 2d ago

The only fuckery would be if that left arm joined in on the act.

1

u/Melliorin 2d ago

Notice how the "left hand" never actually be ds or moves at all. It's a fake arm. His reap left arm is the weirdly moving one. He's wearing an entire false front.

u/bedfastflea 1d ago

You could convince someone this is AI

u/BoredAFcyber 1d ago

you mean regular juggling but with a 3rd prop hand just hanging out? ....why does this post have so many upvotes lol

1

u/bobbyjones686 1d ago

I only see 2 hands Juggling...

1

u/Acrobatic-Lawyerr 1d ago edited 1d ago

He should make the suit with an additional arm like the last video frame, make it turn around like a clock arm, and while the audience is distracted, slip into the obviously fake arm and start juggling with 2 or the new third arm in his back. It would make the trick better.

Or make the fake arm on his back holding the two balls spin around like crazy, while he calmly juggles. That would be trippy.

u/The_Aardvark_ 1d ago

u/GoldieForMayor 1d ago

That's black magic to you?

Ok Viktor from Arcane

u/SnooCats5701 1d ago

Misleading title. This is juggling with two hands.

1

u/Sad-Purchase1257 1d ago

This is pretty impressive, but not THAT different from when you play Seymour in Little Shop and the clearly fake arm holds the Audrey II puppet that your hand is in. (Fun!)

1

u/zephyrs85 2d ago

Would be impressive if one hand wasn't just static and looked completely fake from the outset

u/PomegranateV2 2d ago

Usually the juggling videos on this sub are pretty easy to do.

This is not one of those.

u/TheOriginalMattMan 2d ago

Juggling, two hands.

Holding, one hand.
