DADDY CLAY: Do you have something dangerous to show the kids?

BRIAN BRUSHWOOD: This is actually something we taught on the very first episode of scam school. Its one of my favorite bits, you can find out how to do it on this episode. But its called the human chimney. Check it out.

DADDY CLAY: We’re back in the studio with master magician and star of revision three’s show scam school. If you haven’t been you have to go and check it out. Check it out its one of the best shows on the web. You can find it on youtube.com. We got Brian Brushwood. Thanks so much for being back with us. First thing, this show is brought to you by BabyBjorn we’re hoping you can pull a rabbit out of this

BRIAN BRUSHWOOD: Let me see I got it. Oh its pooh.

DADDY CLAY: When I was a kid I did magic shows. And my parents being pack rats my parents didn’t throw away any of my magic tricks. And my son who is ten wants to do his magic talent show in front of his fifth grade class. So my parents went through the storage shed, and this is my magic show from when I was ten. Its hard times.

BRIAN BRUSHWOOD: Yes it is hard times, and with kids you want to keep reminding them how hard times are. You got to think of some reason why we put it in there. And personally I think if you wanted to kick things up a notch. Hang on one second.

DADDY CLAY: He’s going to start some kind of fire.

BRIAN BRUSHWOOD: We’re going to do a magic appearance we are going to have my favorite little bunny rabbit rags appear in a flaming burst of energy of fire. And then we’ll do this, holy cow that was probably a little bit dangerous. And now we need rags as well. Lets actually put this in. And… Everything’s fine here. Its rags!

DADDY CLAY: You can pass this magic thing right here can pass right through that. That’s totally solid. As a matter of fact in can pass through this one the same way without any effort at all. You can see here that there are these slots that the knife is going to pass through I’m just going to put this at the very bottom of the chamber and I’m just going to get this knife and stick it in there. Obviously I have pinned the block in place.


BRIAN BRUSHWOOD: And it goes all the way through, or I mean I would go all the way through . We’ll do this side right here.

DADDY CLAY: My capable assistant.

BRIAN BRUSHWOOD: Lovely.

DADDY CLAY: I can just pull it right out and escape the chamber.

BRIAN BRUSHWOOD: And how can this be? For he is the Quisat Sadarak.


DADDY CLAY: So this little thing, this is just a disappearing chamber.

BRIAN BRUSHWOOD: Oh is that all this is. It just disappears stuff. Its only an anomaly of science of likes which we have never seen.

DADDY CLAY: So basically im going to take this solid block just hammer on there.
Yeah it’s a total brick. And the thing is about this little box is it will totally defy physics. I want you to guess what side I put it in.

BRIAN BRUSHWOOD: Fifty fifty right? I’ll go ahead and say this side.

DADDY CLAY: Your wrong there, but I’ll tell you what since I’m a nice guy I’ll let you choose again.

BRIAN BRUSHWOOD: Well if its not that one its that one.

DADDY CLAY: Hey both are empty! I’m going to take this just to show that there are no tricks involved. It goes right through all of it.

BRIAN BRUSHWOOD: That’s not bad but im kind of bummed that I watched how it was done from the side. There’s a little green elf that makes the magic happen.

DADDY CLAY: I’m with the magician and I’m doing the fxxx magic tricks.

BRIAN BRUSHWOOD: You have no idea how much I’m enjoying this.

DADDY CLAY: I’m the dad guy and you’re the fxxx magician, why am I doing this.
