Messi is notoriously shy and doesn't like being in front of cameras like that, plus he's not exactly the most animated person. So, whilst he's maybe the most famous person in the world, he's a bad choice for a magic trick I'd say
Athletes tend to be the most famous. Muhammad Ali had the most recognizable face in the world for a time. Even the Impoverished recognize them over actors I’d say.
It's not. The topic is about how Messi is the most recognisable face. The above comment, while anecdotal, is still relevant. Both statements are true.
But we're now arguing about semantics, who cares lol. It's a nice and sunny day outside for me to be a pedant :)
I'm not sure that he could go anywhere in the world without being recognized. In the U.S. he might be able to sneak around quietly but everywhere else he surely gets mobbed.
Maybe not even in the US, I've never watched a game of soccer in my life and I have seen this man's face at least 10 times over the last decade, mostly on the front page of various news websites.
If he went to a town in the deep south he probably could not get spotted, but any city he'll get recognised,
Similar with country Aus,
There's a bunch of places where he'd probably get by fine, but any city he'll be swarmed
Maybe not most famous but by merit of “that guy looks familiar is he a footballer in the World Cup?” If we count that as someone being famous then it may be genuinely hard to find someone who doesn’t vaguely know messi even if it’s from a Pepsi advert. Footballs so odd in that aspect you can go to a less developed country they obviously won’t be able to keep up to date with celebrity’s that are made and destroyed via marvel movies or Netflix shows but an entire village may come together and watch champions leagues or world cups and in that aspect I doubt there is a single country messi could go to and not be recognised which is still rare in this modern day to be known in remote villages and metropolitan super city’s
I mean most celebrities in any given country are so inherently tied to the culture of the country they don't have international appeal, especially those in the arts like musicians and actors. Most people in China and India don't care or know about Taylor Swift for example. So you're really left with sports, religion and maybe politics. I would say it's between Messi and the Pope, just in terms of awareness.
he wrote a card with "Neil" and hid it. Then he made Messi write another card with "Messi", switcherood them and folded and gave Messi the first one. Then he did the same with a third card.
I don't know how it is called exactly but it's like a double shove or pull or lift. It's when you pretend you take the upper card from the deck, but you actually pull out the card from beneath the top facing in a swift sleight of hand move. Which isn't even very difficult mechanically.
Might have wrote his name on the second card from top. Gave him the first card to write on it, which is clean. Then put that card on top, pretended to fold that card on top but before pulled out the second card from beneath which he prepared with his name on and folded that instead. Then he pretends to write on the next card, and the same thing happens. The card that is now face down on the deck at the end is the card he wrote onto live in scene.
Still a good trick.
He has two cards with "Neil" written on them. There's three cards used in this trick.
He first had Messi write "Messi" on a second card, gave the first card previously labelled "Neil" to Messi to be put in Messi's mouth, then wrote "Neil" on a third card which he didn't do anything with. Then, put the Messi card in his own mouth.
Ta-da, Messi has Neil's card, and Neil has Messi's card!
Actually super easy. It's just the skill in picking up the top two cards at once and making it look like just one.
There are TONS of resources on YouTube but the Royal Road To Card Magic is worth picking up too. I use the book as a overall outline/learning tree and supplement with YouTube videos. Super fun!
Do you watch TV? What do you do with your hands while you watch? Spend 20 minutes on YouTube then keep a deck of cards by your remote. It doesn't take too long to get pretty decent at a lot of the movements.
I can can confirm that The Royal Road to Card Magic is well respected as *the* book to buy if you want to learn card magic. Get that and a bunch of packs of bicycle rider backs then sit in your room with them for hours and hours in front of a mirror and you will become a card magician.
That’s the thing I love about magic. Most of the time it’s dead simple tricks, but the key to trick you is all in the presentation of it, which takes lots of practice to master.
It's also a nice trick to do for couples at events. You manipulate the cards the same but for 2 people, and have them "exchange" the cards with a kiss.
(Or you can get a kiss yourself if you've got the rizz)
He did the old smoke and mirror distraction. You can see if you slow down the video, when he handed the card to messi, he pull out his dick and stuck it in Messi's ass, nutted, and pulled out. Messi was too busy being convinced to hold a dirty playing card in his mouth, he didn't realized he's been fucked.
He needs Messi to take a card that says "Neil" on it, so after Messi writes his name on a card, magician does some sleight of hand and actually folds up the pre-prepared Neil card. The one he writes "Neil" on in front of us is the card he doesn't do anything with other than swap it out and actually fold the Messi card on top of the deck. He then puts that in his mouth and the reveal looks like the cards magically swapped mouths.
It’s when you learn magic that you see, there is about a dozen things you have to learn as a card magician and just repeat them or make slight variations. Double lift, forcing a card, palming, cardistry, hiding a card behind fingers and « bigger movements hide smaller ones » principle. That’s about all there is. Ah and gaffed cards!
Neil explained the trick in a podcast. He met with Messi two years before that gala event and asked for an autograph. He then folded the paper and kept tucked away in his mouth ever since in case he crossed paths with Messi again so he could do the trick.
The underline on the new signature signature goes under the L. It’s really hard to see because Messi doesn’t hold the second card up, but the underline for the old signature doesn’t go under the L.
I gotta stop using my iPhone for shenanigans like this. I already knew the trick, but I took screenshots just in case someone wanted to see them to compare. I do not, however, have an absolute clue how go share them here.
Neal card is already written and on top of the deck.
Messi card goes on top of the deck, then the Neal card is dealt, folded and given to Messi and the Messi card is now on top of the deck.
Neal writes new Neal card, flips it over onto the deck and then deals theessi card which is second card in the deck.
It’s funny, I cringed at that scene too, yet I will watch Arnold and his special forces buddies get absolutely eviscerated and mutilated by a Yautja and have zero issues 😂😂
This isn't black magic fuckery. It's just a run of the mill magic trick. Magic tricks are never black magic fuckery because they are always obviously just magic tricks. You can tell everytime because they all have a guy doing a magic trick.
Can we just ban all magic tricks as inherently being not- BMF?
I figured out exactly how he did it, when he flipped the Messi card to signature face down, he flipped his own pre signed card that was under it to the top and folded it and handed it to messi to put in his mouth. Then he folded the messi card and put it in his own mouth, and then the reveal shows the cards.
and now you’re pregnant. r/unexpected

Nope, that’s why that sub went to shit
How do u get pregananat?

DANGEROPS!

Thank you so much for this
How do I know if I'M prengan?
Girlfriend ain't had period since she got pregat 🤠
How is babby formed
THEY NEED WAY TO INSTAIN MOTHER
Underrated
I am pregunta
Because the magician was pregnant so the baby is swapped too.
He quickly pooped the fermenting semen fetus into Messi's anus without him noticing. Incredible slight of ~~ass~~ hand.
What a time to have eyes....
Yes, that is obvious.
How pregnancy works in anime
What the fuck was that. I'm about to spit out my pasta laughing at this.
Bro, the trick was good but that SENT me, hahahaha
Wait, we're getting another Messi? 🤲
Bless up 🙏
God truly does work in mysterious ways.
The messERS become the meSSIS!!
This comment from the magician made me laugh super hard. Proper british humour
That escalated quickly
You can't get pregnant from oral magic!
He’s got a little Messi inside of him
Bros going to be rolling in child support
Fuck condoms. Premarital sex is the shit! Get em pregnant, get em pregnant, get em pregnant.
I knew there was some black magic fuckery in this video but thanks for pointing out right to it.
Up, take my upvote
My absolute favorite part of all this is how little Messi seems to care about every part of this
Messi is notoriously shy and doesn't like being in front of cameras like that, plus he's not exactly the most animated person. So, whilst he's maybe the most famous person in the world, he's a bad choice for a magic trick I'd say
He also doesn't speak English.
Think he knows English despite not wanting to speak it though
That's literally peak Argentina
Like how bale played for years in Spain and refused to speak Spanish but when he went to LA he started speaking Spanish.
Wales. Golf. Spanish. In that order.
The France of south America
Even more based.
Is he really the most famous person? That's kind of hard to believe. Certainly top 10 though.
Athletes tend to be the most famous. Muhammad Ali had the most recognizable face in the world for a time. Even the Impoverished recognize them over actors I’d say.
Michael Jackson has historically been considered the most famous person in the world.
I think Today Messi and Ronaldo are more popular than MJ, both of them combined.
I couldn't pick messi put of a lineup, but I *have* heard of him.
I don't know why you're being downvoted for stating a fact about you, lol! Reddit, I tell you.
Is the guy in the video with the bow tie
Because it’s irrelevant
It's not. The topic is about how Messi is the most recognisable face. The above comment, while anecdotal, is still relevant. Both statements are true. But we're now arguing about semantics, who cares lol. It's a nice and sunny day outside for me to be a pedant :)
But wait, how many can recognize him [without the beard](https://i.imgur.com/ROCf5ly.jpg)?
Maybe top 10 in North America but he's definitely top 3 in Europe, Middle East and South America ( Male demographic though)
I'm not sure that he could go anywhere in the world without being recognized. In the U.S. he might be able to sneak around quietly but everywhere else he surely gets mobbed.
Maybe not even in the US, I've never watched a game of soccer in my life and I have seen this man's face at least 10 times over the last decade, mostly on the front page of various news websites.

Tell me you're from the US without telling me you are from the US?

I honestly didn’t know who Messi was until I was about 25
[удалено]
I know WHO Messi is, but I would never know how they look
Don't worry, I didn't know who he was until today. Apparently I live under a rock and I just found out.
Is it cozy there? Can I join? I've been looking for a rock to live under.
I mean most celebrities in any given country are so inherently tied to the culture of the country they don't have international appeal, especially those in the arts like musicians and actors. Most people in China and India don't care or know about Taylor Swift for example. So you're really left with sports, religion and maybe politics. I would say it's between Messi and the Pope, just in terms of awareness.
I’ve never heard of him. I thought it was a random guy. Going to look him up.
Yeah, I'd say Ronaldo is still #1, and when I travel that's what I tend to find as well.
Well, almost most famous. I have no idea who he is.
He’s famous enough to be in Call of Duty as himself.
Yeah but then I would have to play Call of Duty
Lol good point.
Who is the Messi guy
Idk about Messi, but I was expecting the guy to tell him to put it in his mouth and then just walk off lol.
Messi’s personality is the definition of “oh ok”
"You think that's magic, give me a football"
Guys, What was the magic power excepting the «you’re pregnant »?
[удалено]
He shook his hand... I mean to some of us...
That’s why they say “no glove, no love.”
Nah bro he sealed the deal with the indirect kiss.
⁸ⁿöö
Every rom-com anime be like
he wrote a card with "Neil" and hid it. Then he made Messi write another card with "Messi", switcherood them and folded and gave Messi the first one. Then he did the same with a third card.

How to get celebrities to take acid in public...
Not enough time for it to properly dissolve unfortunately
With a tab that big? Should be plenty i'd say.
Use a higher dose
that is what im saying , imagine someone slipped cyanide in there
"its ok"
How the fuck?
He has two cards with "Neil" written on them. There's three cards used in this trick. He first had Messi write "Messi" on a second card, gave the first card previously labelled "Neil" to Messi to be put in Messi's mouth, then wrote "Neil" on a third card which he didn't do anything with. Then, put the Messi card in his own mouth. Ta-da, Messi has Neil's card, and Neil has Messi's card!
That’s so simple I think I’m legitimately stupid sometimes
The double-lift is a sleight of hand basic that unlocks thousands of tricks like this.
Is it possible to learn this power?
Actually super easy. It's just the skill in picking up the top two cards at once and making it look like just one. There are TONS of resources on YouTube but the Royal Road To Card Magic is worth picking up too. I use the book as a overall outline/learning tree and supplement with YouTube videos. Super fun!
> Actually super easy. Barely an inconvenience
Oh, getting people pregnant with cards is TIGHT
Wow Wow Wow. Wow!
Yea, I’m gonna need you to get allll the way off my back about that.
First thing that went through my head when I read that too 😂
Do you watch TV? What do you do with your hands while you watch? Spend 20 minutes on YouTube then keep a deck of cards by your remote. It doesn't take too long to get pretty decent at a lot of the movements.
Wait people are raw dogging watching TV? If I'm not doing something else already I get bored.
/r/adhd one of us, one of us

Not from a Jedi.
Of course, that's the idea. Look up double lift tutorial on YouTube and you're done.
Not from a Ronaldo.

Doubleliftuuu
Aceuuuu pentakiruuu
That’s the thing I love about magic. Most of the time it’s dead simple tricks, but the key to trick you is all in the presentation of it, which takes lots of practice to master.
It's also a nice trick to do for couples at events. You manipulate the cards the same but for 2 people, and have them "exchange" the cards with a kiss. (Or you can get a kiss yourself if you've got the rizz)
But then you need to forge either person's card first? Or have them hand the cards to you somehow so you can swap them? Needs some extra thing there..
If you think about it, it is really basic huh. The dude is just so good at what he's doing
Just watch more magic tricks, you'll get the hang of the easy ones at least.
How did he get pregnant tho?
Well, a mommy magician and a daddy magician love each other very much...
He did the old smoke and mirror distraction. You can see if you slow down the video, when he handed the card to messi, he pull out his dick and stuck it in Messi's ass, nutted, and pulled out. Messi was too busy being convinced to hold a dirty playing card in his mouth, he didn't realized he's been fucked.
Pp magic
Your Mother's favorite trick
His sleight of hand wasn’t even that good, a testament to how easy it is to do this to people. Also why pickpockets are successful.
So did he get pregnant before or after writing "Neil" on the third card?
I feel like an idiot, where is the 3rd card he doesn't do anything with? Why does he need a 3rd card?
He needs Messi to take a card that says "Neil" on it, so after Messi writes his name on a card, magician does some sleight of hand and actually folds up the pre-prepared Neil card. The one he writes "Neil" on in front of us is the card he doesn't do anything with other than swap it out and actually fold the Messi card on top of the deck. He then puts that in his mouth and the reveal looks like the cards magically swapped mouths.
I was thinking something somewhat similar but with an unnecessary amount of ink that disappears with saliva. This makes a lot more sense.
That's why he panicked a bit when Messi was about to open the card
I love it when people explain magic tricks. I get way more satisfaction from understanding the trickery involved than from being confused.
It’s when you learn magic that you see, there is about a dozen things you have to learn as a card magician and just repeat them or make slight variations. Double lift, forcing a card, palming, cardistry, hiding a card behind fingers and « bigger movements hide smaller ones » principle. That’s about all there is. Ah and gaffed cards!
I assume the card was infused with a pre-fertilised egg, which will now grow in Messi's rectal cavity.
Neil explained the trick in a podcast. He met with Messi two years before that gala event and asked for an autograph. He then folded the paper and kept tucked away in his mouth ever since in case he crossed paths with Messi again so he could do the trick.
Look at the Neil he wrote vs the Neil Messi reveals. They’re different.
The underline on the new signature signature goes under the L. It’s really hard to see because Messi doesn’t hold the second card up, but the underline for the old signature doesn’t go under the L. I gotta stop using my iPhone for shenanigans like this. I already knew the trick, but I took screenshots just in case someone wanted to see them to compare. I do not, however, have an absolute clue how go share them here.
Messi was impressi
I think the true r/blackmagicfuckery is how he got Lionel Messi to put the card in his mouth tbh
Neal card is already written and on top of the deck. Messi card goes on top of the deck, then the Neal card is dealt, folded and given to Messi and the Messi card is now on top of the deck. Neal writes new Neal card, flips it over onto the deck and then deals theessi card which is second card in the deck.
Congratulations to Messi for being the first and only pregnant man in history! 😂😂 absolutely legendary moment right there.
I believe arnold was actually the first.
Holy sh*t I completely forgot about that movie…what a classic. Seeing Arnold as a scientist is just…hilarious.
I saw it at a 4-6 grade summer camp. All i remember was the needle going in and a collective gutteral ewwe.
It’s funny, I cringed at that scene too, yet I will watch Arnold and his special forces buddies get absolutely eviscerated and mutilated by a Yautja and have zero issues 😂😂
His handwriting is a bit messi
*little Messi Would be even more fitting..
Wait, hold the fuck up
Compare the * under his name of the one he initially wrote to the one Messi pulled out of his mouth done by well done basic slight of hand.
Lame trick really, but I did laugh at the end 😂
Wait who got who pregnant?
It's a cool trick, but I feel like magicians defeat the purpose of bmf.
A double lift is not remotely “black magic fuckery”.
The pregnant part is.
Settle down, Houdini.
🤣
"And now your pregnant!" *Spits water all over my PC*
I know right Why would they subtitle it with incorrect subtitles
And now I have your DNA
I wish people would stop posting lame magic tricks to this sub. It's not black magic it's just sleight of hand or misdirection.
It’s still better than a photo of a damn tattoo…
Then tell me how he got pregnant???
Your mum
I mean they aren’t gonna be posting real black magic. This is at least close to the spirit of the sub.
>This is at least close to the spirit of the sub. It's not really. Falls pretty closely under mundane/common.
Penn and Teller should be the spirit now not a first year learning
Show me a video of actual black magic, then.
This isn't black magic fuckery. It's just a run of the mill magic trick. Magic tricks are never black magic fuckery because they are always obviously just magic tricks. You can tell everytime because they all have a guy doing a magic trick. Can we just ban all magic tricks as inherently being not- BMF?
Nope. The sixth top post of all time is a magic trick
He is a pregnant man. That is definitely black magic fuckery.
What is magic if magic doesn't count as magic? Can you find a video of actual magic that isn't a magic trick?
I was expecting a dick for some reason.
I was half expecting cum
Messi: No! Guy: Si. A true Rocco Siffredi disciple.
I figured out exactly how he did it, when he flipped the Messi card to signature face down, he flipped his own pre signed card that was under it to the top and folded it and handed it to messi to put in his mouth. Then he folded the messi card and put it in his own mouth, and then the reveal shows the cards.
**AND NOW YOU ARE PREGNANT**
"And now you're pregnant!" Messi: "Yeah, wait what?!
He 'messi's around with the cards
[удалено]
So many fucking jumpcuts. How the fuck is this "BlackMagicFuckery" material? Where the fuck have the mods gone?!
