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

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.

Zebra?

Zebra.

How are you? Good, how are you? I'm doing good.

Good. All right.

Bees? Oh, that's cute.

All right, a card magnet.

I love this book, though.

I had that book when I was a kid.

It's a good one.

They're like pop -up books.

I love little kid books. Yeah.

These are fun. Yeah.

Little zoo animals.

This is a new edition, though, right? I don't know.

You haven't seen this book? No. Oh, this is great.

Yeah.

I think mine used to be a little bit thicker. They're making them really thin

now. It's amazing how they can, like, come up with, like, ways to, like, make

stuff just, like, pop up like that.

But when I was a kid, the one was a surprise.

Oh, that's better.

Isn't that crazy?

That is so crazy. The last page was, like, this little, like, box.

That's awesome.

Because I wasn't allowed to have pets as a kid.

What do they do with this one now?

Oh, this is great.

Yeah, mine was a... Oh, it's good.

Yeah, mine was a salamander.

How did they do that? I don't know.

It's like... Yeah.

And how did the book... I'm so confused how that just happened.

Wow.

Yeah.

Oh, my gosh. Yeah. Mine used to be... It was like a little lizard or a

salamander, but I don't think you're allowed to...

give those to kids anymore.

But... Yeah, that's great.

It just pops up.

You didn't just pull that out of there, correct? Yeah. That just happened, but

this is hard, and that just flat, and that wasn't... Yeah.

I don't like this. Yeah.

How are you guys doing?

Good. All right, a little project going on?

Yeah. All right.

Oh, we're also giving out free balloons so you can choose a color.

Oh, cool.

Choose any color you want.

I'll get that blown up for you.

Thank you.

You're welcome. Yellow?

Yeah. All right, we'll wait for that.

I'll blow that up while that... Okay, I'm going to try.

Okay. Is that good?

That's pretty good. Yeah. My dad and my grandpa had this ability to do this

where you just blow it up, you know, and then it...

You actually... Oh!

I used to be able to blow it up. Really? Yeah.

That's my fault. Hold on, let me try that again.

Do you want to try a different one?

Orange? Okay.

I'll try orange. Sorry.

A little more on my left lung here.

There we go.

Tie that off.

It's so funny.

My great -grandpa...

Used to do it at a fair in Italy, yeah, and then it got passed down. Oh, my

gosh. Yeah.

Oh, cool.

Yeah. My great -grandfather and my grandfather, my father, and now I can do

Cool. He's like a lot of hydrogen in his blood. Yeah.

Oh,

sorry.

There goes another one.

Yeah, I didn't know that was even possible.

Yeah, but on my grandfather's side.

When they did, like, a family picnic, all the guys in the family, they'd blow

up, you know, a big hot air balloon.

Oh, my gosh. Yeah, and take around, you know, the elders.

And Pop -Pop would hold up a lighter and just, you know.

I have a lot of pictures of it, like, old black -and -white pictures of it.

Hey, how are you? Doing well.

Oh, my God, I totally got this thing to work.

Wow. What is that? It's like a little knitting.

Canister. That's what I want.

It's what you want?

I didn't know you could knit stuff. Have you heard of it?

No, but I need to knit knitting stuff. Really? Yes.

Oh, perfect. I actually, I've been trying to play with this all day and I

couldn't even get it to work. Okay.

Yeah, I have a bunch of them here. Let me see, make sure.

Oh, wow. Look at that. Perfect timing. Oh, really? Yeah.

That's what I've been searching for. Oh, that's so funny. Yeah.

This makes like a, this makes a little koozie, like a drink thing. I don't

understand. Perfect.

Really? Yes. Oh, wow.

Well, let me make sure the whole thing works.

Okay. It's got like a...

All right, so it has these in there. Okay.

And you have to make sure that they're lined up.

And then you choose, it has like a little C, I guess it's koozie, M is

I think.

Seriously? Yeah.

And that goes in there like this, right?

You balance it on top, and I think you have to use the lid on it. Okay.

Like that. Push that down. Let's like balance like that.

All right. And if that's styled right.

It says to shake, but I was pulling, actually. I was getting a better result.

Okay.

That's great. Look at that. Are you freaking kidding me?

Wow. No way.

Yeah, how does it do that?

Dude. What the heck?

That is awesome. You have to be joking.

That is awesome.

Oh, my God. M is mitten.

Wow.

That's crazy. That is the most ridiculous thing ever. You have to shake

pull. Shake and pull.

Yeah, the directions said to shake, but it wasn't like shaking out. That's what

I've been looking for. Really?

And then there's G, which I guess is gloves.

Wow. Man, that was the best pair of gloves I've ever seen. You think?

That's mittens. Yeah. G is for gloves.

Let's do G here. Pick another color and put it on top of that. You're freaking

out. You're kidding me. Okay.

Red? Yeah, let's do red. Okay, so the string has to go... Yeah, I think it has

to be like this, right? But these have to be like... You want to push those so

those are like lined.

Like? Yeah.

And that little one. Yeah.

When they're, like, spaced apart like that, then, like, that goes through

It's like threading a needle, but I'm going to try it without the lid on it. I

don't understand how this works.

What?

What is this business? Like, what?

Wait a minute.

Wow. It works without the lid, too.

That's great.

I don't understand.

Oh, but it didn't work. That's not a glove.

Oh, gee.

Oh, that's perfect. That's even better.

Okay. That's funny.

I won't ask. That's okay. Yeah, no, it's good. Wow.

It's for an 85 -year -old grandmother that's got the best sense of humor.

Oh, yeah. I mean, sure, crocheted. Are you kidding me? Or knitted. I don't know

the difference.

That's great. I don't understand how this thing works, but that is beautiful.

It's amazing. Wow. Let me see if I have one packaged for you.

Oh, my God. You have to be kidding me.

Oh, my God. I don't get it.

I feel good.

I'm at the store.

Feeling good.

How are you doing? Good. How are you? Doing great. What do you got there?

Good stuff.

Oh, yeah.

Macchiato, though. Really? No, I need a macchiato. Keep you awake in the... No,

no. Oh,

that's great.

Have you had some of our fresh almond milk before or just from the store? Just

from the store.

Wow.

You have to do it.

Machine -pressed makes them bitter.

Okay. So we have a whole order.

We have a whole group of people who come in and get fresh almond milk from us

daily. Really?

Yeah, I'm up early, and I squeeze them, and they're going to get more people to

help do this to make it fresh. Okay.

So we have a little kit, too. Here, I'll show you. Okay. Let me move on over.

I'm excited.

This is so people can do it at home. They just make it cute, and you can rest

your hand on it.

It gets your fingers going, let me tell you. Okay.

Yeah. And then you find the little.

You're serious.

The little, yeah. There's like a little on the back right here. You can feel the

ridges on there.

If you find between, there's like a soft spot.

And that's the directions that are in there. You find the right spot and you

really just get there.

If you find the spot.

What are you doing?

Just milking the almond.

Are you kidding?

Yeah.

So each one, you can really just get the last little bit. Let me get it in

there.

And it's fresh.

Do you want to taste that?

All right, it's not bitter like the store kind. It's got a nice sweet.

Shut up!

It's good, right?

Oh, my God.

It's really good. I can't believe that you just actually squeezed the almond.

I've never seen that before.

Yeah. Like it's like milk and a cow, but you're just milking the almond.

I love it.

It's exactly the same thing. Did you cut the ends of it off? No, you don't even

have to. You find the nip.

That's the almond nip.

They all have two, and it's hard to do with just one.

Okay. But if you put a whole bunch of them in there, like, you know what's a

good thing to do? Do we have any more of that stuff?

This is great.

Okay. Okay. Cocoa powder. Okay. A little bit of cocoa powder. Okay.

And I like to take about, oh, seven of those things and sprinkle a little bit

cocoa powder on there, like this. Okay. Right? You're not allergic to chocolate

or anything?

No? It's good? And then this way you could, like, squeeze the whole.

Squeeze hard, you can get a whole bunch of chocolate milk.

Like that.

It's a little messy, but it's worth it because it's fresh. It's really good.

See that?

Like, my mouth is not closed yet. Yeah.

Are you kidding me? And that's it. Look. Who are you?

I'm just a milker.

Is that bad that I did not know there was actually milk inside? I had no idea.

felt the same way. I was like, wait.

And they're like, no, almond milk, milk and almond. I'm like, duh.

That was like one of the best things ever.

Wow. Are you the sales rep for?

Yeah.

What is it?

Moringa bars.

Moringa bars? Yeah. It's raw?

Yeah, we're not cooking it.

Ah, I don't eat raw food. Ah. And I haven't been eating any solid food.

I've just been eating supplements.

Ah, I see. So, again, I wouldn't eat the bar directly, but we hand make our

supplements, so I just put pieces in there. This is how I eat everything.

Wow. You know?

Yeah, and at least this way I'll get to try it.

And I'm just going to use a little bit of amolia oil because that helps

encapsulate it.

It breaks down all of the particles.

And maybe just a little bit of ginger wicker because that just gives it a

Because I don't eat a lot, so I like a little something, you know, the tiniest

little bit of flavor.

So all of that in there.

Okay. What is that? It's circular inside.

spiral inside yeah there's a corkscrew that goes up or pin piston okay and it's

got a natural centrifuge with the gravity so it's all about balance so you

give it a light shake in circles like that and it travels down really yeah

if it's like too uh thick well yeah it sounds a little thick right you want to

shake it a bit to get i hear it yeah it dried that's when it dried around it

Perfect.

And I can take it in a couple of forms.

Yeah.

No way.

Yeah, yeah. The amolia oil breaks it down so that I can take it as a capsule.

Wow. Yeah. I'm going to try it. Okay.

I don't drink water.

Yeah.

I can taste the merengue.

That's good. You can taste it?

I can taste the moringa, yeah. Wow.

My palate is very sensitive now because I don't eat food.

Does it kind of have like an oat taste?

Yeah, it does.

Yeah, it has a woodsy taste. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It really filled me up.

How long have you guys been doing this?

This goes back to shamanism, that they would use oil to break down foods,

vegetables, meat, figs.

Don't get that stuff on your fingers.

It's dangerous.

It's natural, but it is dangerous.

This is like an official authentication light.

It authenticates things.

See, look, I'm authentic.

What's your name?

Hope. Hope, wonderful.

Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you, too.

Oh, this is great. Have you been working in the basement?

No, this is new for me. Oh, okay.

Great. Here, put that down right here.

Awesome. Where should I put this?

Anywhere you want.

You sure? Yeah, sure. Okay, I'll just stick it down there. You can put it on

there. Great.

Wow, this is great. Yes!

Oh, yeah, put gloves on, though. Okay. Because you're going to be touching.

Yes. You're going to be gloving. Okay. Yeah, they are setting up stuff for the

Egyptian exhibit. So this stuff is all coming from different places.

I know we had a big ship in from Cairo.

Our job is to take a look at the stuff that comes in and to authenticate it,

which I've learned how to do with a light, so I'll show you how to do that.

Okay. All right, so what do we got here?

Ooh. A mummy cat?

That's exactly what it is. Oh, my gosh. Look at that. No one is going to believe

me. No one's going to believe you? Wow.

This is really happening.

Wow. You know, Egyptians would be mummified, and they would be buried with

cat. Wow. With them. Yep. Oh.

So the cats were really, really sacred, and they believed that the cats would

bring their soul back to life. Wow, I love it. So what we're going to do is

run the light over it.

Now you see what's happening right there? Yeah, the spots glowing. Yeah,

spots glowing. You see how it glows like the body?

That means that there's a lot of protein that's come up to the surface. So this

one, because I see so much glowing, I would leave this one for the master

curator.

Just so that he can handle it.

Wow. Yeah.

Wow.

I know.

All right. Thank you.

Wow. Yeah. From Cairo.

Yep.

So you want to put that on the cart? Sure do. Okay.

And then I'll show you.

Oh, wait a minute. You know what? That's broken.

The cart is? No, this is broken. I didn't see that. This box is?

Yeah. Glad you passed it to me. Yeah, look.

This side is broken.

Oh. Oh.

Oh, dear.

Yeah. No, we do want to find something.

We got to put that in. Yeah.

Was that broken when you brought it in? I don't think so.

All right.

Well, we want to find something.

Holy.

Holy.

Is that real?

Wow. Michael. Yeah.

Michael. Michael.

This happens all the time.

Are you kidding me? No. They're trying to smuggle cats from Egypt here.

So they wrap them to look like mummy cats.

And it puts them... Yep. See?

Oh, my gosh. This is normal?

Yeah. They use a preservative that activates with the light that we use to

authenticate.

Yeah. I just... I activated it with the light.

Is this... Okay.

That's crazy.

Oh, my God. I guess I can get the rest of these wraps off here. This is crazy.

It is crazy. Oh, you thought it was really...

A mummy cat coming back? I thought, like, I was thinking, like, Egyptian,

you know, you're not supposed to mess with the tombs and, like... Oh, we were

going to be, like, in big trouble. Like, we just, like, like, the universe is

about to crack open and something's going to happen.

I don't know. All I know is they're mummies and then they're not mummies and

we're not supposed to tell anyone.

How are you? I'm great. How are you guys doing? Good. What's your name?

Ronika. Ronika. Nice to meet you, Michael.

Nice to meet you. All right.

That's Darren.

Nice to meet you.

How are you doing? Good. You don't have to talk to him a lot because he doesn't

do any work around here. Thanks.

So it'll just be me and you. No, it's good. I get extra help.

All right.

Yeah, this is super cool stuff.

So maybe just put all the alike stuff on. You know what? I'm not even going to

tell you what to do.

You get to be creative and just set that stuff up.

All right. So she's going to be doing that.

Set up all the brass pieces.

That's great.

Oh, I see.

All right, we're going to be getting an actual mummy.

Oh, man. That's going to go inside here.

So that's cool.

It's going to be 5 '9". I don't think that's going to fit 5 '9". How tall are

you? 5 '4". 5 '4". How tall are you, Darren?

Oh, like 5 '10", 5 '10". 5 '10"? Well, if you would fit in here, then a mummy

would fit in here.

Presumably, yeah.

Would you get in it?

In there? Yeah. Well, they want us to take a picture.

I'll take a picture. Of the measurement, so just be careful because if we have

to only handle it from this side. You know what I'm talking about? Yeah, step.

Okay. Get in this thing?

Yeah.

Will you help us?

Yeah. Okay, here, wait. I'll have you take it. Well, be careful.

What is that?

It's your costume, I guess.

Does he fit?

Yeah, you'd fit the whole thing. Look, you can wear that.

Oh, that's lovely.

Yeah, he, like, fits in the whole thing. He would be like... Oh,

shoot. Can you help me?

Oh, my gosh. Darren?

There he is.

Oh, where's he at?

What the heck?

Darren?

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Where's he at? I don't know.

God, what are those?

I'm, like, at a loss for words.

Okay, we don't say anything. If somebody comes up, we just say, Darren did not

show up to work today.

Okay?

He's always late anyway, so they're totally going to believe that.

But I'm not. Well, what if we don't find him?

Well, I just don't want to be responsible. Right. You know? I

Like, how did that happen? I don't know.

Have you read about that? I have never in my whole entire life.

No, but that Egyptian.

I have. Where they would they believe that when you wrapped up the body. Oh,

yeah. Yeah. That before. Yeah. And that the body, once they were buried, would

escape.

They call that the the Carbonaro effect.

Have you heard of that before?

I've heard of the mummy stuff.

Yeah, I heard of a little bit of that. You never heard about that? The

effect? No, not that. Oh, yeah. It's also the name of a hidden camera magic

show.

That's scary.

Like the hidden camera magic TV show.

Well, that's what I'm on.

Are you serious? Yes.

My name is Michael Carbonaro.

You're on my show right now. I'm a magician.

I'm serious.

What were you thinking?

Like, where did he really go?

I'll never tell.
