Mike T,
You had me convinced that this trick was not going to work. So, the ending was a surprise.

Very silly. Nice job.

Great job, Mike T. I like it when people have fun with their magic and make it their own. Keep up the good work!

Mark. Smile

Ooooooops! Sorry guys, it was not my intention to mislead. This is NOT my performance. It just comically pointed out a basic mistake that I made when following a set of instructions. I misread one word and the rest of routine went a little weird.
Has anybody else ever done this or is it just me.

Apologetically, Mike

Hey Mike. No problem! Thanks for letting us know it was not you in that video.

With many YouTube video's not having a name attached, it was just assumed it was your's. I guess this is just another example of what they say about when one assumes something. It just makes an a@# out of them!

Still, it is a funny video and a great job by whoever that is.

Take care, Mark.

Many times.
I am divorced so that should speak for itself.
The word for divorce (skei) and take a dump (skeit) in Afrikaans is pretty similar so there is one.
Or if the wife leaves a note that says "buy diary" and you bring milk and cheese assuming she meant "dairy" the results are not pretty.

I'm confused. Is this you? You said it was NOT your performance, but then said it was a mistake that YOU made. Just curious. If it was you, good job. I've seen this routine before, and its even funnier when infront of an audience. The part where the bandana (banana) gets shaken, some people just go wild - (banana flies into audience Smile)
A great video!

Hi Greg,

No, that is NOT Mike T. in the performance. He used this video clip to make a point that he sometimes (so do I) misreads the instructions that come with an effect and things don't always go as planned.

Mark.

Hi Greg,

Mark's got it right. Smile

Hi Mark,

You got here before I could - many thanks for the further clarification.

To ABC,

LOL
