Hey, what can I get you? Michael Carbonaro has an effect on people.

What is that?

Hiding in plain sight. How you guys doing? He makes them fall for the

impossible.

They remember how to be tied.

This is the Carbonaro Effect.

Nobody's going to be throwing anything at me today and expecting me to catch

are they?

Could be a problem.

I know I have not.

All right, bye.

How are you doing today?

Hey there.

And he called. Oh, at the... Would you mind grabbing me that? No, I'm not.

Okay, you know what? It's actually kind of heavy, so... No, really?

Is it not?

Said it's the wrong thing.

Oh, yeah, this isn't it. If that's heavy, then that's the problem. No, it

Yeah, this shouldn't be it.

You know what this was supposed to be? I keep messing this up.

Look at this.

It was supposed to be a bowling ball, custom bowling ball.

So you're back. Oh, wait.

Oh, good, good, good.

Wait, how did I pick that up like that? Oh, that's me. I forgot. They ship the

bowling balls with the basketballs so that it's lighter, the air.

Yeah. Wait, wait, no. Okay, I don't get that.

All right, that was in there, and this was in there with it?

Yes. How?

Just so that it's easier for them to... No, how did this close?

That's how they ship them that way. No, how did it close? It doesn't fit.

Like, okay, put that in there.

I think that, well, this one goes in first, I think.

How did that happen?

They always come like that.

Right, but how could those two things possibly fit in this box together right

now? Oh, no, we sell them both.

It's only supposed to be this one item.

So how did this basketball fit with it? Just so that it won't be heavy. How?

How? Physically, how?

Look, it doesn't fit. I don't understand.

I really don't understand what you mean.

So you playing a game today?

Yeah. And the foam's sticking, or?

See, this one's a little loose, too.

That just fell out. That just fell out?

Does stuff fall out of your helmet all the time?

Just foam and stuff?

Well, there's like a piece of...

What? Are you...

Did you feel that?

Are you okay?

Did you feel anything weird?

Have you played with him in here?

Oh my God, I'm shaking.

Oh my God, are you okay?

Are you serious?

I have never... Where do you keep... Where do you play?

Oh my God!

Okay, what do you want me to do with it?

It's yours.

I mean, it's not mine.

It wasn't there?

Is there something you want to tell us?

Is it like yours?

Have you been keeping them in there?

Do you still want the helmet?

No. All right, here, you take that.

I would just check for any poop or anything inside that before you play.

Give it a good shake in case he...

Yeah, upside down. Yeah.

All right.

Good game, man.

There's no way that thing is in there. Just give it a good check before you put

it on your head.

So, like, if you were at the manufacturer right now and they said,

say your name is Joe. Michael.

Michael. Right.

What's your name? Teresa. Hi, Teresa.

Okay, you're at the manufacturer.

Okay, I'm at the manufacturer.

And they're like, we need you to ship that bowling ball.

Okay.

Here's your box. Okay.

Package it up.

How would you do it?

I would put the bowling ball first.

Okay, and then what would you do? I would do the basketball because then

would be able to lift it up. Okay, and so then they say close it up. So how do

you close it up?

How would you fit both of those balls in that one box?

Hey, how you doing today?

All right. How you doing? I'm Michael. What's your name?

Jamal. Hi, Jamal. How you doing? Maybe you could help me out here. They just

started getting memorabilia in the store.

You know, like they're buying a lot of expensive signed memorabilia.

And I don't know a lot about baseball.

What's a good baseball player that we should get?

A signed autograph.

I'm not a baseball. I'm a basketball fan. A basketball fan? Yeah, I'm not a

baseball fan. I don't even watch baseball.

No? You've got to know some baseball player, though, right?

What's a good old retired baseball player's name?

Jackie Robinson.

Jackie Robinson?

That's a good suggestion.

Well, his number is retired now. You can't even wear it. The players can't

pick his number or anything. What's the number?

41. Oh, this had a 41 on it.

It's 40.

Oh, I thought it had a 1 on it. Oh, look at that.

Look at that.

Yeah, Jackie.

Jackie Robinson.

That's so funny.

And it says to Jamal.

Is it to Jamal?

Yeah. And that's exactly how I spell my name. That's crazy.

Whoa.

Where'd you get that from? I was just playing with it. I've just been sitting

here playing with this all day. We just got a whole bunch of memorabilia stuff

and they're asking me for names.

Whoa.

Jackie Robinson.

That's what you said.

That's crazy.

Wow. Did you really sign that baseball?

Yes. This is one of our autographed pieces of memorabilia.

And they said they wanted to get more suggestions for baseball players.

That is so crazy. And it's crazy because not a lot of people spill Jamal like

that. Whoa.

Well, I would say that this is meant to be.

That's for you. I'm going to ask my boss where we got that. You hang here.

How's it going, man?

Doing all right. All right. Hey, Michael.

I'm Michael. All right.

1212. What's your name?

Cassie. Hi, Cassie.

All right. Good. I'm starving.

Delicious.

Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant.

And 1212?

1212. All right. I got that all counted out for you.

All right. And you have coupons here for... What is this?

That's all the money. This should be all the money, right?

All of it?

Two dollars. Up to it.

To the other?

Here, let me see.

Yeah, this new money from the bank is, like, really sticky.

Okay. I had just counted it. I'm sorry.

Get this. Hold on.

Oh, there we go. You see that?

That's weird. Yeah.

Is that one sticky, too?

Yeah. Oh, okay. Yeah, they all... These bills are, like, they're just peeling

like that. I thought you were handing me a dollar. No. Like, no, I'm sorry. I

need 1212. There we go. Yeah.

Isn't that crazy?

Yeah, this one, too. You see by the corner? Can you feel that one?

Yeah. Yeah, that's how they just keep giving them out now at the bank.

It's horrible.

Yeah, I know.

You lose a lot of money that way. Do you get tips in dollars a lot?

Yeah. Apparently, they started printing on thinner paper because people were,

like, complaining about their wallets being really fat. That's weird.

Wow. Yeah, that's a lot, right? So I got one.

That's a lot more.

Yeah, one, two.

Three. Four.

Five.

And this one, too.

And this one here. Look at this.

Wow.

This one.

Yeah, still.

Yeah, you got a lot more than that. Yeah.

What did I do? 12, 12. All right, and I have the exact change there.

12.

Oh, this, too?

This is ridiculous.

Why are they doing that?

They just had that.

All right, now.

The coins, too? Yeah, it's all sticky.

I didn't even know it was that much. It's ridiculous.

When you opened this, you were able to pull both of these things out. Right.

How could they have closed up the box if both of these items were in here? Oh,

no, no. This closes up all the way for shipping like that.

But this is too heavy.

Right. See, that you can feel. Right, no, right. That would have been heavy,

right. So they have to put this in there so that it's light.

But how did they put it in there?

Just as a courtesy.

No, how physically?

How did both of these things fit in the small box?

I don't know. I didn't really think about it. I just... I'm glad there's a

light.

Coffee's talking to me. It's like reading tea leaves.

Really?

All right, come on in.

This is a family show.

I'll throw this away.

Sanitary here.

How you doing?

Good.

What was the tea?

Green and mango.

Green and mango? Yeah. He's going to make that up for you. I forgot I did the

mango one.

Okay.

End of the day, you know what I mean?

Yeah, I do.

That's hot. Really hot.

That was luxury, wasn't it?

Oh my gosh, it's so hot.

Why are they pouring them so hot?

Also, I can't be seen, but I could have sworn the cup you were holding was

levitating. What?

It was floating while you were pouring it and then just like... No, it

was hot, so I had to let go and grab the coffee, please.

Ah, okay, yeah.

I was going to burn my hand.

How you doing? Why are these free?

Oh, I don't know. They were trying to make people feel happy today, I guess.

well, I'll take them. Yeah.

How do you do that? How do you open it?

You just use the paper.

Just use the paper to get it. But, I mean, where's the entry?

Just like... No, the... No.

It's like a sanitary paper.

No, I get that. But, I mean, how do you get it open?

Which one you want? Oh.

One of the scones and one of the donuts. Scone and a donut. Okay, yeah, the

pastry paper does it.

You just get the donut.

There you go.

That is two, four.

And one of the scones.

Yeah.

Okay.

All right, Nate, can I?

Yeah, reach in. Just reach through. Yeah, go for it.

And grab the scone.

Yep, pull back out.

Yeah, all the way out.

Yeah.

That might be the coolest thing about our team. Yep.

There you go.

It's just to keep it sanitary. Yeah, I totally get that. Yeah, this way no one

can just, you know, without using the paper, you can't reach your hand.

Yeah, it's safe.

Yeah. Yeah, keeps people from touching them. Yeah.

All right.

How are you doing?

What happened?

Oh, you're serving me instead of I'm serving myself?

Oh, yes. I'm sorry, yes, because we... It's been a while.

It's been a while? Okay. Yeah.

Short decaf, please.

Yes, decaf? Yeah. Okay, I just took two out of the machine, and I have to re

-beam them. We're going to re -beam these up. Is that okay?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Oh, oh, when we make coffee, when we're done with one carafe of coffee, we take

the filters out, and we make more coffee out of that same coffee by re -beaming

it. Okay.

So this is a decaf ground, and the re -beaning oil goes on there.

Decaf. Yep, decaf.

And then you just squeeze the grounds up, and the re -beaning oil will swell

that stuff back up, back into beans again, so we could use that again. Oh,

Yeah.

We like to do it at least three times.

It's just the pressure and the oil will swell them back up.

Those are whole beans in there? These have been through the machine already.

Okay. Now what I saw you do... Right. Take that empty, put a spoon of this in

there. Right.

The oil in it.

Open it up and there's voila, the beans. The whole beans. You've never seen

that? I've never seen the reconstitute beans.

And I'm just... Is it like...

Each fragment here will become a reconstitute to a whole. Yeah, each

Each ground. Each ground. Some of them don't, and they dissipate. Right.

But each ground on a good batch, and if it's good coffee, will swell up to a

full bean again.

But you see how some of them are just pieces?

Right. They didn't make it.

Fascinating.

A little shot of hot water for the road. Oh, thank you.

What are you looking for?

Do you always order the large size?

You could save a lot of money if you just order the small.

No one would pour it into the larger cup.

There's a secret they don't tell many people.

Just because you kept coming up to the counter and filling up hot water.

Let me show you real fast.

All of our sizes fit into all of our cups.

You know? So here's the largest size we have.

And you can fit that all inside.

What? Oh, you're playing with my cognitive development.

No, because it's metric, the different cups. It's just a way for companies to

make more money.

You know?

Always order the small.

Got it.

Order the small.

Pour it into the larger cup. So this is the last time I'm filling you up large,

okay? Okay. Next time.

Got it. Got what?

Get a small.

Get a small.

All right.

Welcome to the Piedmont Knot Museum Warehouse Shipping and Receiving Center.

We're just, like, packing up some stuff and getting it picked up. There was some

stuff we had to have shipped out. We get stuff here that has to be repackaged,

and sometimes people deliver us fresh stuff that we package for them and send

out, so it's just a lot of shipping and receiving.

Okay.

And this... Oh, that's weird. Aboriginal boomerang. Do we have to send that

back? Oh, this is ours.

Oh, man, I knew that was going to happen.

Do you hear about the aboriginal boomerangs? Nope. Oh, we had one here,

there was, like, some controversy about the fact that there was an exhibit about

these, and they were selling them, and they were supposedly cursed or whatever.

What? Yeah. The island that made them in Australia, they got all really upset

that they were selling them and showcasing them, so they're making

send them back. Oh, man. All right, well, I guess we have to pack it back

I get it.

You're not a superstitious, right?

Huh? No, no. You would hold it? Yeah.

I'm just kidding.

Yeah.

It's cool, right?

It looks like a boomerang.

It is. I don't think this will come back, will it? Yeah.

It's like the way, you know, if you throw it right, it's like... And then it

comes back.

It's pretty cool.

I just put them in here.

Little green carb.

And then pack them back up in there.

They'll end up... Tape.

They'll come and pick it up and ship it.

And then the, uh... Am I losing my mind?

Did we not just... Oh.

What?

Oh, no, that's weird.

That... Hold on a second.

Michael, that's weird, Michael.

That's weird. Oh, that's so weird.

Did we not just take that down?

Michael, that is so weird.

That is weird.

I touched it. I'm superstitious now.

Did you touch it? Yeah.

Michael, that's weird.

You got on the line and you took that down.

And you put it in a box.

I feel like I'm losing my mind right now. That's how I feel.

We get stuff delivered here that's been in exhibits at museums, and then we,

like, repackage them and send them back to, like, the rightful artist owners or

other exhibits or something like that. All right, so we're going to take

inventory of this, so tell me what we got.

This one.

Okay.

That is a ring -necked pheasant.

Okay.

And this is a... Spot of grouse? Yeah.

A little spot of grouse. Okay, what else you got?

So we're supposed to spray them with the Tempodermy stuff like every hour.

Okay.

It puts them in like a cryogenic kind of thing.

Each one gets packaged in its own crate. Okay.

I should spray more of that.

This way, they can put them up on display, and then they can put them back

the wild.

Good.

Ready? And then we'll tape up the lid.

Here, grab some of that white tape in there.

Okay.

Have you seen the exhibit that they had these animals at?

No. Oh, it's really cute. And then just one on each of the things so that it

won't... Okay, open up.

Well, this isn't really sticking either.

You know what?

We'll get... Oh, my God.

Okay, yeah, we... Okay, he's got the squirrel.

What?

Well, this isn't really sticking either.

You know what? We'll get... Oh, my God.

Okay, yeah, we... Okay, he's got the squirrel.

Yeah, that's why we have to spray them every hour.

Oh, my God.

All right, can you spray the rest of these down? Because I don't want them

coming back while we get the... Uh

-oh, get over here.

He's going behind us.

Got him.

He scared me when he came out that far.

Hey, Foxy.

Hey, whoops. He's trying to jump back up.

I'm going to close them up.

Here, let's get them in there.

Can we spray?

Just spray the outside of the box, yeah.

Yeah, get all the sides.

You almost got me in my face.

Don't freeze me.

All right,

let's see.

All right, we got them.

Just spray them up a little bit more.

Right in the face a little bit, sir.

Good. All right, that'll work.

So we have to do this every hour. Oh. Yeah, otherwise they come back to life.

It's called the Carbonaro effect.

Have you heard of that?

I'm Michael Carbonaro, and you're on my hidden camera magic TV show, The

Carbonaro Effect.

Oh, my God.

No.
