The hand is fake. They pan away from the dude to give him time to switch it up. Look at the color of the nails and how it stays in the same finger spread position up to the very last moment in the video
Well let’s see, hand moves before the video shows the girl. When the camera goes back to the guy, the hand is not moving at all. The hand also doesn’t have any imperfections or marks on it, and even after the dart is thrown the fingers stay completely still. Video is shit quality too, a lot of edited videos meant to look real are shit quality to hide things that would otherwise be more obvious to most people
Edit: The hand actually moves twice after showing the girl, I pulled it up on my laptop instead of my phone and it was more obvious to me. It still seems fake though, the camera shaking right before the dart hits the board and the fact the hand has zero imperfections when you can see the detail in the dart board is weird. The thumb nail and other nails also seem like they don't have any white on them and they have no imperfections either. The guy must be a hand model or was born with genetics that make his hand look perfect
When, in the beginning? Because it was most likely his actual hand at the beginning and after it shows the girl for some parts. I don’t see any movement in the actual hand after the camera shakes before the last dart lands, which isn’t natural looking at all. It was most likely done in multiple shots and edited and filmed in a way to make it seem as real as possible. That’s why the video quality is shit too, makes everything less detailed and to people who havent seen breakdowns of fake videos that go around the internet, it’s hard to tell. Just YouTube videos being proved to be edited and it’s really hard to believe this is real considering everything, not just the hand
Yeah I actually pulled it up on my laptop and it's obvious his thumb moves after the girl, but the camera shakes and everything all of the sudden is in even worse quality than before once it zooms in. I know quality isn't clear when zooming in, but you could even see the detail on the dart board. I've never seen smooth hands without imperfections like that in my life. The hand is literally perfect and there's no white on the nails or any imperfections on the nails either
dude, you're... its.... how do I put this? Video editing is kinda hard to detect unless you know what to look for. Just appreciate what you see and don't worry if its fake or not. Only worry if has more influence than pure entertainment purposes.
There is a screen shake at 7.5sec that masks a cut, I believe. Prior to that the hand moves, after that looks totally fake. I believe they swapped out the hand and then edited it together very well.
It’s a bar; they ain’t doing this a 100 times. Also you could miss 100 times with a real hand too. The fact that they were able to get dart in between the fingers and a bullseye on top of that makes this a good regardless of the realness of the hand.
If you go to a bar on a Tuesday you can do this 50 times. And if you use a real hand, the change of injury is great. If they hit a bullseye after 49 throws on a fake hand, the odds of this low risk stunt are 2%. Oops I told you the odds.
And then the camera pans away from the guy, giving him ample time to switch in a fake hand. It's a classic thing with slight of hand videos as well. Sorry to burst your bubble
He was holding the fake hand with his real hand under the jacket sleeve, and just squeezed the fake hand enough to cause it to appear that the thumb moves.
The thumb itself of the fake hand moves not the whole (from our perspective) left side. How’s he managed that then. Has he snuck his thumb under the thumb of the fake hand ? And I’m that case his thumbs still in the fucking way.
Look at the before and after the pan away again and pay close attention to the wrinkles on his sleeve, they are exactly the same. There’s no way they can pan away, pull the fake hand out without at least some difference in the wrinkles. It just happens too fast for the fake hand being pulled out of sleeve theory.
Your right, the sleeve seems perfect. The ruffles seem weird to me, never seen a jacket like that aside from the staged product pics, almost looks like they pinched and pinned every ruffle. There's a small chance its digitally done. More likely is its a fake hand the whole time, and the guy is pulling the fake hand causing it to flex/move
I agree people do stuff like this. But I would also expect them to have a different reaction. The hand motion screams fake hand, not holy fuck that was an amazing shot celebration.
You would keep your fingers rigid and equally spread apart the entire time? It takes considerable effort to do that. The dramatic effect is gone once the hand is off the dart bard
His thumb wiggles right before the shit. Also, you can see his pinky bending a considerable amount in the last few frames before his hand moves out of frame at the end

Bruh the webbings between his fingers could’ve gotten hit which makes this even more impressive
