The secrets behind some of the most classic, but baffling, magic tricks have been exposed in a fascinating video shared online. In one instance, a McDonald's straw appears to move another straw as if by magic, but it is revealed it is down to static energy. However he soon revealed that he had cut the straw in half, and glued two halves of a magnet to the inside of them. He then slides the card between the two pieces, making it appear as magic. However it is soon revealed that the magician has used a windowed envelope, slicing around it to leave the note in one piece.
