Illusions
This episode investigates illusions. Can spinning an upturned glass of water really make it defy gravity? Did a performance group play a deadly game of ping pong with kitchen knives? Is a clip that shows the ground liquefying real? Can a subwoofer sound system pump out bass so powerful that it turns a car to jelly? Are these clips real or fake?

Are these clips real or fake?
