Magic Tricks : Introduction to Spoon Bending 

I accidentally do this trick every time I use a spoon to scoop ice cream out of the container.

Was at a demonstration of "Psychic" spoon bending where the setup was very similar to this. At the end of the Prestige as the Oooos and Awwwws were free flowing, I picked up the other spoons as well as the bent one to make it appear that I was inspecting them for some sort of flim-flam when I handed the bent one back to the psychic I asked him to use his mental powers to straighten the spoon out to as near original condition as he could. He said something about the uneven consistency of the spoon's metal not allowing it to straighten perfectly and he moved on to the next illusion.

I really like the way, this gentleman explains it. Excellent.

Hi, I seem to be able bend spoons without having to bend them or even touch them, am I doing something wrong?

Thank you for the explanation. Although now I am a bit bummed. I sorta thought there would be a bit more to it than that.

This guy seems so chill

Paul weatherbee, thanks for posting. this is awesome.

My dad used to do tricks like this all the time except instead of using a pen he drank heavily and hit my mum.

Here comes forth! The SPOONBENDER! [epic music]

Paul has great facial expressions, an engaging face is a great distraction.

0:51 Nothing to see.

Thank for letting us know, and I wish you all success and good life.

Can't wait to see your video.

The real magic here is the mouth-made sound effects 1:44

I used to bend spoons all the time when I was shooting dope.

Joe rogan brought me here

Very cool. Thank you!

Illusions, Michael.

It's kind of easy to do the trick when the camera is aimed too high to see your hands while you're bending the spoon.

thanks for the clip! Well done!! :)

Can’t believe dragon maid brought me here🤣 9 years later😆😆😆🤣

Good job, really thankfull!

Thank you!

oh so excellent!!! I can try it !!!!!

Anybody else immediately understood what to do when they saw the spoon at the start because the way he held it made it so obvious that it was bent

Awesome.

Thank a million, teacher

We could see you bend it, bro. You almost busted a sweat.

Thank you,

awesome!

this guy is great

That's actually pretty good

Uri Gellar uses spoons made of nitinol!!! memory metal that is formed bent and then straightened... it can then be returned to its bent state using heat... hence uri rubbing them with his fingers!!

I just keep picturing that little kid bending it in circles and Neo's face,(he was probably thinking, I knew magic was real) basically told him what they say in Interstellar or in Star Trek "It never occurred to me that space was the thing that was movin"! In other words, you don't bent the spoon, you bend space!

Thank you

Best Trick!

Oooo this is good.

wow it's amazing,how did you do that mr. Paul Whetherbee?

Awesome thanks

If a person could do this with "psychic" powers you would think they would spend their time in a casino at the roulette table instead of bending spoons

Can you bend forks too? If so I've got one in my garden.

to do it in real concentrate your frequency to the ones of spoon feel the energy. and most imp keep your mind calm

Who's watching this in 2020 while in quarantine lockdown?

i love it

I think there must be more than one way of doing this metal bending trick though, because that doesn't quite look like the way Geller used to do it. I mean, I am sure they're ALL tricks anyway, including when Geller does it, so don't take me the wrong way here but I am also sure his technique was different. For a start, I suspect Geller used pre-prepared spoons and forks that he already weakened, rather than doing it at the time of the act, plus I think he had a few plants in on the act who pretended to be "randomly picked from an audience". Which is probably why he bombed out on the Johnny Carson show where he was forced to use things he had no prior access to and he had nobody else in his team on there that night because he wasn't expecting to be asked to do anything, he was fooled into believing he was on that show just to answer questions, which Geller did say to Carson, to which Carson replied "oh I can ask you all kinds of questions" and the audience just laughed at Geller all the more 🤣

As with most magic tricks, the big reveal always seems so lame and disappointing. But I guess making it look good is what the art of magic is all about.

Spoons are made of galeuim a metal that softens in body heat

Omigawd! He's got magic powers like Uri Geller!!

I like his jacket. I wonder where I can get one like it.

So I've seen less obvious spoon bending routines such as Gallerian. Are they any good because they are not cheap.

Ive seen someone bend a spoon wiggling it lnfront of my eyes. I dont know know how they did it, but it did bend where there fingers were so i know they physically bent it somehow. With just 3 fingers though.. was an amazing trick

ROCK ON!! DUDE

How do you make it bend before the audience's eyes? Without bending it beforehand? Because *this* is what's being done on shows.

Between the Mullet and the Shiny Jacket I would say that is enough of a distraction. My wife and I was laughing through the whole video until you bent the damn spoon with your mind. GOD DAMN YOUR GOOD BUDDY!

wooooo you are a good magician wow

@Quartrez Lol yeah like the flying card!!!

thanks

Nice bro

hello great magecian are you like your own magic?

pls teach us how you do the coin in the glass at 0:01

But if someone is close enough, on the sides seeing the performer almost in profile, wouldn't they see that the spoon is already bent?

Wow... and I thought it was just the old spoon made out of gallium trick.

Its nitinol also know as memory metal search it on youtube it pretty cool stuff and really fun to play with

Man, john wick really let himself go

how do you explain Criss Angel's methods? he makes it come off and all that while it is still normal with out bending.

clever

please, teach me how to do appear the flower from the hand

wow!

The Last Spoon Bender

love u sir

this spoon made from gallium metal, melting point 29.76 C.

@nkBuddy321 its an invisible thread at the middle at the card. and then he got the end of the thread in the mouth our something like that, and just spin it and moves his head&body.

I actually noticed you bending the spoon the first time before you went through the explanation

Cool. Not how Uri Geller does it, but very interesting.

rock on!

what i think is that when he has it in his hand before he shakes it he lightly bends it and then he turns it so you can see the bend

how did they break it into two pieces?

wow thnks

at the end i thought he was gonna say "And that's the introduction to spooning" lol

Ben put that comment before me! Wow, mind reader!

are you the masked magician in the tv show " breaking the magicians code"?

I wanna learn the tricks in the intro

== Forbidden knowledge == Use your brain frequency to vibrate things. By just imagining its meets like chocolate the molecule and space bind the molecule together will expand and an illusion will come to your head that it just melting.

LOL and how do you explain spoon bending from "godspeed09" ?????

@WildOnesH4ck i shall tell ya i believe in both.

I do have a paranormal capacity. I see the subconscious of people.

Now I know how to use Gboard!

@nkBuddy321 Probably really thin string. Atleast that's how I do it

@nkBuddy321 invisible thread taped behind his ear, get it at any magician shop

I already know. Its easy.

*when you only have steel spoon*

Sheriff of Nottingham can bend them spoons son!

ROCK ON!!! :D
