I'm gonna say this delicately and direct this comment not towards you, but a small minority who exists on this forum.
If anyone in this world.... over the age of 12..... really, truly, genuinely believes that video is real then you likely suffer from mental retardation. A generalized neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by significantly impaired intellectual and adaptive functioning. A person who is very unlikely to score higher than 70 on an IQ test. Someone who can't distinguish between fiction and reality. Facts and folklore.
The signs and symptoms of mental retardation include:
- Delays in oral language development and social skills
- Deficits in memory skills
- Difficulty learning social rules
- Difficulty with problem solving skills (ie. can't distinguish between air currents and fictional claims of telekinesis)
- Delays in the development of adaptive behaviors such as self-help or self-care skills
- Lack of social inhibitors
If you feel you suffer from mental retardation, any of these symptoms, or find yourself watching magic videos on YT and thinking they are real, there are various services that can help aid you through your mental retardation. They won't cure your mental retardation. Science is yet to find a cure for this very serious problem. But they can help aid you through your problems:

Furthermore. For the health and general well being of this forum. I advocate that other members copy and paste this post anytime you see or suspect that someone may be suffering from this debilitating disorder.
12 out of every 1000 children will be born with mental retardation.
And there are 321,000,000 people in the US alone.
Which means there are
3,852,000 people in the US right now who suffer from mental retardation. And when you're online, your chances of being exposed to these people are exponentially higher.
Please help by spreading the word about mental retardation. And please don't make fun of these children or adults cause their parents have had to deal with far worse than you ever will.
