It should be quite the same as in The Prestige. Look closely at his amr when the cage is disappearing, you can pause it can you will see something being retracted. That is why the girl in pink is looking at the back after the trick is done.

It swings around the back of his right side, past his elbow. It’s blatant when you slow down the video. I’m guessing it’s a very fast string mechanism, coupled with a very fast cage-collapse mechanism and a very good performance.

@Scorpio706 Yup, he’s great, but don’t call him the greatest Most of us probably know who was the greatest ever (If you don’t know, type “greatest sleight of hand artist ever” in google and click “I’m feeling lucky )

Does any body fancy the one in the flowery dress? I think the girl in pink has been getting all the attention

Its a pity that if you watch closely you can see where it goes
This is NEARLY what real magic looks like

it goes right behind him. with something elastic. the girl in black saw it, and looked there. take a closer look on … 3. it has something from “prestige”, or “prestige” has something from tommy.

@MrDiamondback watch closely between tommy and the woman on his left. In that space you will see the box dissapearing.

I think the girl probably figured it out, but some spectators are paid to watch. Usually the ones right in the front. They aren’t in on the tricks, but they could be getting paid or getting something free for clapping and nudging other people with a “Did you see that?” They’re just as amazed as well of course.

@Scorpio706 It’s not a camera trick, the cage spring folds flat and it shoots back behind him on his right side using a strong elastic pull.
This is often done up the sleeve, it’s just a variation on the sleeve vanish to fool people who know that one.
The girls are in on it though they act suprised as they are L and L stooges just like all the specs. There are a lot better magicans than this guy, like David Blaine and Criss Angel and Penn and Teller who do much more modern tricks

@CaraBrimleyRules …You seriously think David Blaine and Criss Angel are better than Tommy Wonder??? Agreed that Teller is brilliant but Tommy Wonder is one of THE greatest of all time!

@TheCupsAndBalls It shot behind his back. The girl in the pink shirt and brown skirt actually looks behind everyone after it disappears. Just keep your eyes focused behind his right wrist.
