Hey, how you doing today? Michael Carbonaro has an effect on people.

That's nuts.

That's cool.

Oh my gosh!

Hiding in plain sight.

Michael, nice to meet you. He makes them fall for the impossible.

The best thing to do is just pick them up by the tail.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Oh my gosh!

This is the Carbonaro Effect.

This looks pretty real.

It's set up here.

Wouldn't this be in the front, though?

You don't, like, measure things like this, do you?

Well, that's, uh, two and a half feet.

Hey, how are you? Hi, how are you?

Hi, I'm Caroline.

He needs one that's 12 feet. Not two that equal 12 feet.

Oh, oh, okay, okay. So you've got two...

Six -foot extension cords, you want a 12 -foot extension cord? Yeah.

Okay.

You know, these are interchangeable.

Yeah, he's really specific.

Is he really?

No, I mean like a six -foot.

I mean, if you're six and six together, it might plug them together, but

literally he wants one.

Oh, okay.

Well, you don't have to plug them together, you know.

Here,

you could line them up like that.

Here, hold that.

They're lined up.

Yeah, these are the ones.

So they're both, yeah, they're both equal six feet.

Right. So tell them you twist these together like this. Okay. And you don't

to lock it in because they have pressure points on it because they're universal.

So you want to squeeze those together.

Okay. Yeah.

And you'll feel it kind of snap in, and then they'll be, huh? What did you just

do? Well, this could be a 12 -foot because it's interchangeable.

And then you can use this for whatever you need it for.

You know what I mean?

This people just use to, like, plug in a phone or something.

And then that'll be, that's 12 feet.

Yeah, they're all interchangeable.

It pulled. I'm not crazy.

You just got two cords.

This is 12 feet now.

Right? You said you didn't want two six feet. Six foot and six foot.

How did you do that?

They're interchangeable. It's a universal interchangeable cord.

Because what happens is, is if you plug two cords in together, like a six foot

and a six foot, and something pulls on it, that's going to unplug.

Okay. So that's why you want a full 12 foot one without any brakes in it, so

that if someone pulls on it, it's not going to snap in the middle. Okay. So

just want the one 12.

Okay. Yeah. So however you want it. You could do it as a 12, or you could do it

as two six feet.

Okay. And if you need any more, you just add them on.

Okay. Yeah.

So... Is one 12 -foot what you want? Yeah. Okay. So, yeah, and you can have

this. Okay. People use this, like, you know, if you want to... Sometimes you

move the coffee pot a little closer to the toaster, and you just need that

little extra... Hi, how are you doing?

Oh, hey.

Oh, great.

Thank you. Yeah.

Oh, my gosh.

I'm so hungry.

Yeah. How old are you?

27, 77.

Spring roll free for you.

Oh, spring roll free?

Yeah. Oh, great. Spring roll free. Thank you.

That's nice.

And here we go.

Sauteed chicken.

Sauteed beef. Sauteed beef. Great.

And... What is this?

Ah, beef and crab roll. Yeah.

And these are... Oh, I know.

Is that... Yeah? Whoa, whoa, whoa.

What?

What is this?

Yeah, I don't know.

Are these fresh?

Yeah. Yeah?

Oh, wow.

Okay. That was... Yeah, maybe... Oh, is this bouncing? Like vibration or

something? Yeah. Oh, okay. Good, good, good. Yeah.

Just as long as they're not... Okay, yeah. That looks good. That's fresh

right? Yeah. That's good.

What... What is going on?

Huh? Why, why?

Is that crab?

Yeah, I don't know why.

Do you guys use live crabs?

I don't know why they make this one for players. Do you want to get... Just

don't let them pinch you.

Oh, yeah. Do they make them like that to be fresh?

Yeah, I don't know.

I'm cold.

Oh, okay. Well, I mean, I like fresh stuff.

This one you try. Oh, no.

Well, you know...

It's okay with me. I do love fresh stuff.

You want to do this one? Yeah, I'll take them like this. This will probably be

really tasty. I wish I didn't break them out of the roll.

I'm perfect for... Are you going to take a picture?

Yeah. Okay.

Here's 40.

Okay. Okay, because I appreciate being so fresh.

Okay. Thanks so much for that.

Okay, okay. Thank you. Okay. Thank you so much.

Okay. Yeah.

What do we got over here?

We have people come visiting.

How many people are visiting?

Four of them. Four of these?

Got it. Let's see here.

I'm going to take it off the ring. Is that okay?

As long as you can get it back on. I'm pretty good at that. That's what I do.

This one here.

There you are.

Is this a house?

Yes.

That's going to be this guy over here.

All right. I just want to see.

I'm just learning how to do this.

Oh, no.

No, don't say that.

No, I'm going to do good. I'm going to do good.

My dad was a keysmith. So here, will you hold that just like that? I'm going to

look and make sure we got that measured up there nicely.

If you look here.

So it curves in like that. So we've got one, two, then two little guys in that

one. And if you don't cut it right, you know, if you try and do this and it

doesn't get cut right, and you miss just that little piece right there, someone

might think it's finished, but then it won't actually open the door.

So we'll be able to cut that one. Let me just give it a try.

I'll do this by hand.

It's better by hand when you do it.

Wait.

Yeah, let's see.

Let's see.

Yeah, look at that.

You see that? I got the little nubs right there, and it matches down. A

can't do that like that.

How do you do that?

My dad taught me how to do it that way. It's the original way that they would

make keys.

It was an art. That's not electric.

No, no, hand -done.

My dad's got carpal tunnel from doing this for years and years.

Is he a logger? Yeah, he's a keysmith.

That's different. Very different. You don't see a lot of keysmiths anymore.

I've never seen another one. Yeah.

It's like a true shoemaker.

It is. It's like a true shoemaker.

Yeah. You hardly see them anymore.

So I was going to open my own shop one day, you know, just hand -cut keys.

Yeah. That would be kind of cool.

But it just gets me a little.

So you really want four of these?

Yeah.

Okay. Can I take a quick break?

Yeah, I guess. Okay. Just give me a minute. I'm going to run my hand out of

water because it sparks.

I'll be right back.

It doesn't sound like anything.

You know, I love working here. I get to learn about some crazy things. Like, our

boss Rich has found this, and he was trying to get them to remake this, and

nobody is interested in remaking it.

Oh, this is an old denutter that they made in the 70s.

What is a denutter? You guys have peanut allergies?

Yeah. A lot of people come here and they have allergies.

So we have here.

Actually, well, if you don't have peanut allergies, you should taste this here.

You want to try it? Yeah. They're homemade chocolate -covered peanuts.

I'm going to pass. You're going to pass?

Yeah, sorry. I'm going to.

But here, I'll show you.

You know, obviously, there's a little, you know, we can see a little peanut

inside. center of it.

So the Denutter was a product made in the 70s that the

inventor's son had a peanut allergy.

Well, you know, before there were salad spinners, there was the Denutter.

And a salad spinner was actually made off of this design.

So what you can do with this, which is great, and for our customers, we use it

all the time. I'll put in two big scoops of our chocolate -covered peanuts here.

Just like the salad spinner design.

Spin it.

And then you know when it's ready.

Off's up.

See that?

See them all in there? Yeah. Okay.

So now those guys, those gozer holler. The peanuts are separate.

You're kidding me.

Yeah. How did that happen?

Well. It separates them, so now the peanuts... But how did it get out of

without... That's... What? I know. Oh, my God.

There is sorcery at play.

Yeah. So it gets the nuts right out without breaking through the chocolate.

That's not possible.

Yeah, it's a metal base.

There's, like, iron in peanuts, and it's something with the way it spins, and it

gets them through.

So... What?

That's exactly what I thought when he was showing me how to do this. I was

give me a break. And then I'm like, okay, I'm doing it. And now, do you know

many people come in daily and say, you know, they'll bring a peanut butter

sandwich. Can you put it in the spinner, put it in the spinner?

A peanut butter sandwich? Yeah, it'll separate it to just the jelly, the

and, well, the oil.

I don't know why people eat it, but it's like having jam bread, you know.

But my boss was trying to get them, you know, get in touch with these people and

say, can you remake them? And they're not interested in remaking it because

sell so many.

non -peanut product especially that they lose money by having people have the

ability to just do nut products at home can i like pick one of these up and look

at it yeah sure so how could a peanut have gotten out of there without busting

that thing open i don't get it yeah i'm so confused i'm questioning everything i

know about the physics of it yeah i don't seem i don't know

We've got to tell Lionel about this.

Does he have another allergy? No, he will be fascinated by the physics of it.

I'm questioning everything. I just don't even understand.

What are you going to do with these now because they're empty?

Well, we have people who will come in. Is there a re -nutter?

Can you put him back?

That is a really good idea.

Maybe if they had it spin the other way, put the nuts on the bottom and put it

in. That would be... But that would be weird because the nuts actually went...

On the other side of this basket? Yeah.

You know, the chocolate has to be completely free of all nut dust, nut

everything. How did they leave them through there?

That's what I don't understand.

My mind is so confused.

Yeah.

I'll get my boss and see. Hey, baby.

Who are you?

Oh, that's Peanut,

believe it or not.

Hey, Peanut. If we put you in the nutter, do you nutter? Will you

too?

Well, it can neuter them.

I'm going to put my finger in there.

That can't be alive.

I don't think it's... That's not good, right?

Yeah, no, he's got like a... These are those little guys that, you know, you

do like a pedicure with them.

I know, creepy, right? But they just stand still until...

Like when they see a finger.

Oh, yeah. Or a toe.

Have you ever had that done?

No, and I'm not going to. You wouldn't do it, right? Oh, no.

No, there's too much going on. Little fishes, right? They do a really good

though.

You can see that he's breathing, but you can't see his little gills moving.

When he sees a finger.

Oh, my gosh. Yeah, they get a taste for that flesh, and they are just...

Up there.

Oh,

it did a good job, though.

Oh, my gosh.

Okay.

Okay,

that just freaked me out. I had a hangnail, though. He got him.

Where's he at now? Good?

Yeah, he's in the tank with the rest.

Oh, you're doing it in a tank?

Yeah. Oh, I thought you stepped on him. No.

Okay. I wouldn't step on a fish.

Okay, okay.

So we're doing that in the back if you want to have your toes done. Absolutely

not.

It'll take five minutes. Not even two minutes. Okay.

We'll just ring you up.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Oh, my God.

I know we've been to a lot of places, but I feel like a big shot, like behind

the prize counter.

I haven't seen a prize counter since I was a kid, and this is like, I am in

control of the prizes now.

So show me your tickets, and I'll show you the prizes.

What did you say?

Oh, no, these are gumballs. You want a gumball?

Yeah. Everybody gets a gumball if you play the guessing game.

Okay. Pink.

Pink? Yeah. Why pink?

It's my favorite. Is it your favorite color?

Oh, okay.

Is there a trophy down there?

You have to guess the number of tickets that are inside this box right here.

You can hold it. You're allowed to hold it.

Okay. So if you guess the number of tickets, someone's going home with a

Okay.

You're going to guess the year you were born? Okay, that's a good guess. What is

it? 1 -9 -6 -6.

Stop it.

Wait a minute. 1 -9 -6 -6?

Did somebody tell you?

Oh, my gosh.

And what is your name?

Tony?

Tony 1 -9 -6 -6.

You won.

That's it.

Get out of here. Seriously.

I'm being serious. Wait a second now. Wait a second. You have to be honest

me. Nobody told you that? No.

Tony1966. I was born. I would be 48.

Oh, my God. There is 1 ,966 tickets.

That is crazy.

That is crazy. I had to count them. You get the trophy. I'm going to give her

the trophy.

All right. Can I give it to you?

Yeah. Oh, my God. I'm so excited. This is insane. Look at this, because I've

the trophy right here.

Someone was going to go home with this and win this.

Oh, my God. Is it Tony?

Yeah.

Tony. Yeah. And look.

Tony, come here. Look.

Are you messing with me? No. Because I counted this myself. You're not? No.

You guessed this number. Yes. Your name is Tony. Yes. You get to take the

trophy, and it's full of, uh, it's full of gumballs, too.

What is it?

Gumballs, gumballs. Oh, my gosh, that's right, they're pink. They're all pink.

Guten Tag.

Guten Tag.

Okay. I don't know German. No?

Yeah,

they ship them from Germany.

Yeah, they ship them from Germany to us here.

We have an exchange program.

It was in my car.

It was in my living room. This box has been in my kitchen since last night.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Get in the box.

That's okay. Yeah, they give them, like, you know, their backpack and... Hold

on, son.

No, this is crazy, dude. Like, hold on, son. What?

Whoa. There's no way, boy. No.

Wait, so you're telling me that boy's been in here since last night. You know

what? They ship them. They ship them.

Yeah, so it came in probably... They do them on a jet, so it's very fast

overseas.

Are you serious?

Yeah.

Hold on. No, but he's been in my... Where did that boy go?

No, they give him food and all kinds of stuff. Well, he just ran off. No, no,

that's what they're here for.

Are you serious?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Well, you got a pirate thing with you. Yeah, in case, because they're coming...

In case what?

Well, he's coming from overseas.

I'm saying, like,

what do you do with these kids? Well, they were beta testing game.

So they don't send them to Germany until they know if the kids are going to

respond. Well, I don't understand. What is your name?

Well,

they do that, you know, on the outside of the box. They'll stamp it.

Yeah,

probably a little air.

Yeah, yeah. Don't worry about it, man. It's good.

You know,

They send them... Is it legal?

Yeah. Oh, my God. I am... This blew my mind. Oh, yeah, yeah. Well, come here.

Let's make sure we get... So, wait. When a person like me comes in, do you open

Yeah, but I'm saying... They know there's kids in the box?

Well, yeah.

Yeah, they... We know... Yeah, they're marked on the outside.

Wow. Yeah. That is crazy.

Yeah. It is super crazy. They can get them on a jet over here so quickly that

it's actually less stressful for them than being on a plane. It's called the

Carbonaro effect.

Have you heard of that before? No, Google this stuff. No, no, no, Afan,

Afan. Have you heard of the Carbonaro effect?

No. You haven't? No.

It's the name of a hidden camera magic TV show.
