When it comes to magic tricks be it in real life or on the internet, netizens’ fascination is unparalleled. Whether it is the sheer illusion or sleight of hand, the mysterious nature of the act often leaves viewers in awe. Now, millions are rewatching a simple trick by a student to understand what’s happening.

In an Instagram video, students are seen gathered around the bench of a little school boy, who performs a magic trick with two tiny stones. At first, he shows the audience a black stone in each of his hands, and then flips his hands on the desk. However, when he lifts one of the hands, the stone is nowhere to be seen. He then proceeds to lift the other hand to show both the stones hidden underneath.
