Orangutan Can’t Contain His Excitement Over This Magic Trick

We all know that magic tricks are smoke, mirrors, and fancy handwork. Magicians spend hours mastering the tricks that they keep (literally) up their sleeves or behind their backs. Magic tricks are, in a way, very intricately coordinated dances. So why not just sit back and enjoy the spectacle?

Even though we all know that magic tricks are just sets of diversions, that doesn't stop them from totally shocking us. An elephant disappears in the blink of an eye? A magician guesses exactly which card is in the palm of my hand? Yeah, it's all done by mirrors and careful planning… But I've given up on trying to figure out how even the simplest tricks are done. It's so much more fun if you let your suspension of disbelief take over your voice of reason.

When a man steps up to an orangutan, styrofoam cup in hand, the primate is genuinely interested in what will happen next. This clever monkey watches as the man places a large liquid amber seed into the cup. He closes the lid and gives it a good shake…when he opens it again?

This monkey simply cannot believe what happens right before his eyes! Where did it go?! It takes a short moment for him to process what he's seen, but once it settles in, his reaction is totally priceless!

If this clever fella just put a smile on your face, please SHARE with your friends and family!
