Orangutan Card Trick DEBUNK 

Alan is awesome, he needs a raise Captain.

my favorite crossover :')

​@@AlbertBurdge how can you get a raise if you're an unpaid intern?

I'll pretend it WAS just for you, and you decided to share it with the world!

Captain's love letter to CorridorCrew accidentally leaked and made public.

Mark, please expand on the rumors of you being homosexueality.

3rd baby

When are you going to make debunk videos😂

Marques knows quality. We all love CD.

Real.

except there was something off about the female hand picking the card at the end

@@5pandas512 must've been AI

I like when he said give it a nudge it suddenly aligned itself completely straight

CD: "You would be insane to do it this way" ... while demonstrating how to do it that way.

Omfg

He had a frame of reference though because of when he went to the zoo.

Right? It's such a classic CD gag too, he can't keep getting away with it

That's a cool flex there

Or staff

And then breaks his own rule by using crappy VFX right after.

just like in older videos where he manually recreates the pre-edited scenes flawlessly

this is why we dont get any uploads for 12-16 months and its worth it

lol

Savage. Take my Like and move along.

He didn't forget about us!

Laughing at a youtube comment? I just did that witrh yours. Kudo to you sir :)

Indeed

Well, he did say it was shoddy VFX, so making it look better would only take decent VFX, not phenomenal VFX. and for this reason I say we bring back the guillotine

I need captain D to explain how captain D does these effects

@@lilchromie Captain Double D will explain how Captain D does it, and it's gonna be kinda sexy so strap in

I disagree i clearly saw the card in the front. Hopefully he was showing just a crappy example.

@@aceman0000099not true

I disagree i clearly saw the card in the front. Hopefully he was showing just a crappy example.

@@AdventuresOfDetroit Aha sure you did

@@jakubSwaps Well I can, and you also can see the edit at which he cut the frame@ 15:54.

It *feels* casual. There's nothing casual about it.

​@@lightingman117 Yeah, but if his effects are *always* that top notch, doesn't it mean that it's casual for him 😄?

"How would he composite the reflection over light hay onto his dark fur?" he says, compositing the reflection over light hay over the orangutans dark fur.

Debunk the video, then one-uping them

@@joosepkaha1687 Doubt it feels casual for him, these take months to make. lol And especially when he gotta rotoscope, the pain.

I agree with everything you said. The reason is post frequency.

He's actually very successful given his field.

Because he posts once or twice a year

He doesn't post reels for the sake of reels and a lot of people like to be lied to for the sake of entertainment.

He doesn’t post clickbait 10x a day every day and he’s not a butter faced egirl with big knockers

Oh hey there! Im still procrastinating your donut tutorial lmao

donuts for dinner tonight thx andrew

Donut man it’s you!

Hello BG!

Mark of a classic magic trick. Probably why it stumped corridor, Alan and captain so long. Penn and Teller probably would've gotten it quick. It's actually fascinating how expertises can diverge like that

The arm kinda gives away a hefty amount of it, it's pretty well done but it kinda doesn't look like a real arm

@@davidy22the woman’s arm? I was thinking that too

When the card passes through for the last time, it slides slightly to the left, also looks like it rotates a tiny bit.

"casually" it took him 2 years

@@itisinickt im referring to the visuals of it more than how it was actually done. The writing of each episode is so awesome 😎👍

Orangutans never attacked a human, such peaceful species.

you have to be kidding, a monkey trapped in a zoo is not an ambassador for his species

​@@ChucklesMcGurkorangutans aren't monkeys, they're apes

​@solomongrundy145 ape and Colchester zoo is actually quite a good zoo

Man, I hope he makes a reference to this in his next video.

Matt Parker, for some reason, gives me the absolute creeps. I don't know what it is. I don't fuckin' like him. Just a vibe or something.

@@LegoDork He just has a lot of energy.

@@LegoDork Weird take. Maybe he looks or talks vaguely like someone you don't like from real life and your brain is unconsciously mapping your negative feelings about that person onto him?

@@LegoDork It's probably all the math. Some people just can't handle it, you know? And that's fine.

it's like watching a modern, VFX-centered Liszt at work

Call that "De-FX".

Ace Attorney but in video form

yeahhhhh!!

It's that time of year when all the best RU-vidrs start to emerge from their hibernation.

Jay approving a map is a high compliment. I'm glad the captain got certification from 1/2 of the Map Men

as a resident of essex i have to agree

​@@kamo7293 Hey! This is a family channel, and I demand you sensor "Ess*x" as the Captain did.

yes

I pooped my pants bro!!

love you and your videos Sebastian ❤

Holy shit Sebastian Lague

Oh you're the logic gate guy

Same This man is amazing

IGP, sup dude! I can hear Icy screaming at that magic trick at the end haha.

Agreed! The numbers speak for themselves! Oh wait, no they don't...

I absolutely agree! The time he had the Beakman's World cast on the show, I almost couldn't contain myself.

@@matthewbeers4888 I forgot about that! Beakman was way better than Nye. Mr. Wizard rocked too.

Timestamp? I missed it!

@@jeratzel starts around 7:00, but it's so clean that it took me about 3 times of going over that section, thinking something was screwy, before I noticed.

@@jeratzel 7:08 such a subtle but impressive move

Yeah but it doesn’t look clean and naturally reflected on his fur is what he is saying.

​@@sprshb1852 Yes, but how did he get the clean reflection of Matt over the empty enclosure?

Done this shit professionally for 20 years... Im still learning from CD!

Welcome to the meat grinder

how would you describe the work experience, is it fulfilling? do you get to be creative or are you doing more repetitive work than that?

@@itskidstime1063 Stop looking for the saint grail of jobs. The work experience is mostly the same in all corporations. You show up at the office with your motivation, experience and creativity to a corp who suck it like there is no tomorrow and you go back home with a little money, without motivation nor creativity anymore. And it's not because of the job nor the industry but rather a micro manager who wants to climb the ladder by showing his own boss how he makes your life miserable.

and in that time he's uploaded 10 videos

That ragdoll at the end finished me. Now we know cgiStuntCaptain can be deployed.

I feel ya. Unquestionably worth the wait.

That ending was flawless. Watched it slow mo. His CGI top top the top.

It deserved my very first ever donation to a RU-vidr.

Now I am questioning every magic trick I see on TV. I thought they were actual tricks. Now they could just be video editing.

When he made the primates head move... Damn. 😊

i was never jettisoned into space and left for dead before... good thing I had an identical clone on board 😆

Those are not effects, Captain disillusion is really doing those things! :0

You said it the best way way,

That very last hit on the glass moment is "everything, everywhere, all at once" level of vfx. Not even to mention completely clean card transition

Wait, script? I thought he did all this in one take off the cuff

We love to see his obsessive behavior.

I was struggling to find a way to phrase this concisely and you nailed it. The way he doesn't just explain what's happening, but actually creates an entire vfx/sfx showcase to go alongside his explanations. And the way he tends to improve upon the trick he is debunking is just the cherry on top. It's such a classy flex because his entire video up to that point serves the double purpose of explaining why it's so impressive.

I got super excited when I saw a new video and it wasn't a 2 minute short. More excitement for this 16 minute video than the entire season 3 of The Mandalorian.

Comments like this means that Captain D did what he was aiming for, and a fantastic job too.

Wow nice catch!

The catch 🦅 👀 leaving my comment here so I can come back later for another easter eggs after your another re-watch.

Exciting! I'm sure there's more, it's a hunt!

So sad I don't get it. I have watched this specific part now like 10 times and don't see anything

​@@BlackxesWasTaken he could have said "Keen eyed viewers will see the vfx patch over the catwalk, hiding the card rig" and he already has an arrow pointing right to it. Instead the arrow skips right over it.

Matt Parker was probably the one who helped get footage at the zoo

@@invinciblemode It is only a 2 hour trip for Matt via the A12 and M25!

Wild Matt Parkers are dangerous as they often travel with Parker Squares

Most underrated RU-vidr no doubt.

@@invinciblemode Wdym it was obviously Dronus

Or maybe, just maybe, in a world of trying to go viral, some of us just don't give a fuck?

That ending is just a subtle flex to turn down idiots who might jump up with "Oh Capt. D, if you think this wasn't a good trick, let's see YOU do it!". And of course, D does a fantastic job as usual.

As a wise man once said, Capt. Dic- would always find a way 😁

A staple of his content for sure. Most take it for granted or not think about it.

Yeah, I just noticed that. Such a flex

Because it’s not some tic tac dance video garbage.

WYM I got this recommended and I didn't even follow him until now.

The video is 2 hours old and has 26k likes. View numbers didn't even catch yet lol. I am sure the algorithm is well aware of it. Edit: He has 2k patrons so it is not early access either

Bc he makes 2 video per years😅 RU-vid dosen't like quality over quantity

He’s the bob ross of VFX

Uploading every other year helps keep it fresh

hard, hard work. Frame by frame. Render by render.

An excellent example of quality over quantity.

thank you random stranger for supporting Captain D

​@@maney594 random stranger? That's the literal Internet

And the framing of the presentation as a noir detective mystery was the cherry on top. Brilliant, informative, engaging, and fun!

@@DirkMcThermot the presentation dangled us all on some invisible wire till we all felt the way he did when he realized... it's just a string

We all know you're mr.flare in disguise

Or the bit where he points out how hard it would be to extract a reflection from the background in the two-shot approach... and then doing exactly that, in the visuals he made to demonstrate why it is hard.

My favorite detail is the way it says, “FAKE SHAKE!!” It had me cackling.

Fully agreed. It makes my day whenever a new CaptD video drops. (And by the way it's spelled flair, sorry!)

Agreed!

Indeed.

@@paulannable3734 wonder if he’s checked his email lately

seconded!

This and scott the woz.

Simpler times ...

Yes! I love that expression of old internet energy. Things were cool when it was just for nerds

@@1987joey1987 It's crazy cuz I just realized old internet energy is 100% Bill Nye VHS

Money like most other industries has totally ruined the internet, but its not really the currencies fault either. Its peoples greed thats the real accelerant to things, but I guess without it theres not much incentive to innovate.. I Just hate how theirs kids that dont get it because they never experienced those times.. All they've known is social media and greed and hypocrisy so they just emulate it. Its sad, but ill never be a paypig, thats our only real form of disagreeing. It will be the end of the USA in the future as well as most other western countries.. It will be wild if the thing that finally kills England is greed.

Mystery guitar man, brusselpup, kipkay.😢

That's what I love about CD's videos. While debunking, he, seemingly casually, adds a whole new level onto it. Remember the tape measure debunk? He comped himself into the scenes, and it was flawless, more impressive than the actual thing, just to make a point.

The effect is much easier as he did it. Let's just say there's a reason we see the face of the card and not the back.

Good to see you're a man of culture

Another old guy lol

FULLbridgeRECTIFIER!

I just finished watching your video and then watched this video. Good timing of 2 great creators.

It's always amazing when Captain Disillusion and You upload videos.

Well, that's probably why we are only blessed with one video every millenium! See ya in around a thousand years!

@@cyancoyote7366 To be a expert, it's not just ten thousand hours, it also ten thousand hours working on something! mhuhahaa

how it's

relfecfions

Yes! Like 7:08 where he says they couldn't have faked the reflection, while showing a fake reflection to illustrate

@@jazzgunter3536 oh shoot you're right, I didn't even realize that.

Alan need to debunk Captain D's videos

Captain Disillusion! :)

Excuse me, he's a captain ;)

that's captain to you mister.

Captain* Disillusion

He didn't get a theoretical degree in VFX spaceflight just to be called "Mr"!

@@joebeefhash3455 Humans are primates, yes

@@joebeefhash3455 What? Humans are literally primates. We are part of the ape family.

@@joebeefhash3455we are cladistically speaking

@@joebeefhash3455so, one of two possibilities. Either 1. You missed fifth grade biology Or 2. You are so afraid of the possibility that you’re just an animal that you’ve never even bothered to consider that fact and are denying it, because you don’t know how to find purpose without a higher being crafting you from scratch. (Which is extra funny because you being a primate does not disprove creation in any way) Or maybe I’m totally misinterpreting what you meant

​​@@joebeefhash3455because we are?

I really appreciate the obsession he puts into all of this.

it was terrifying LOL

I was just going to commented 😂 it was like always amazing and unexpected

It's such a flex! "We know the compositor doesn't posess the skill to do WHAT I'M DOING!"

Rajang bouta go sicko mode

This is why it takes him over a year to make a new video.

plot twist: cap'n is already behind most magician channels to generate enough debunk content :D

AN ENDLESS CONTENT CYCLE

That’s a shit name

This must happen.

Well put.

you have a funny name

I think the Beakman episode is up there with the "their best work yet".

@@kabukiass6462 Atarashi Gakko seems to be the peak not gonna lie

Nah, the "Throwing a Ball - Raw footage" unlisted video is definitely their best work yet.

Beakman was peak RU-vid, full stop. I didn't get the Atarashi thing.

@@Barnaclebeard but you gotta admit the editing was really amazing

Seriously this thing is so dense it’s amazing.

Same.

agreed. I thought he had given up on "simply debunking" videos

Omg me too 😊
