Chinese magician performs magic trick
If you watch the video at 0.25x speed, you’ll realize that the video takes much longer to finish.

"If you watch the video at 0.25x speed, you’ll realize that the video takes much longer to finish." Genius! And it's true! If you slow down the video it will take longer to finish. It is gems of information like this that make us the intelligent species we are.

I've never been a big conspiracy theorist, but you gotta think they're cutting frames out or soemthing with some of those "moves" the first one in particular where the two rectangles show up

  I would like to see him live as well. Regardless, I was impressed. I hope there was not any video editing; because that would be real crap, and I saw it on America's Got Talent, and I would like to think they would not edit the acts.

  I agree. But I doubt I'll ever get to see a magician of this caliber live!

  Absolutely frames have been removed. They do this to prevent seeing things by slowing the video or watching frame-by-frame. On stage, I'm sure it looked fine with out trickery. It's a beautiful routine and there is a LOT going on there.

  *SPOILER* "Actually all the secrets are quite simple really if you pay attention to the video editing process and understand the intricacies of removing video stills"

You can see the same show on Americas got talent without "video cuts". THere are also videos that show how the trick is done. No devil magic used at all

  If frames aren't removed, then the action of the rectangles appearing occurs in less than 1/24th of a second because cameras film at 24 frames per second.

  Faster I think. 24 frames is for film, video is something like 30.
