A social media user shared a video of a woman pulling off a trick at a party that had everyone convinced she had magical powers.
Walkyria Whitlock, a fitness trainer from Idaho, posted a video on Instagram that went viral. In the video, she and her friends perform a ritual that results in them being able to lift a person effortlessly.
Everyone was astonished by the trick, and it quickly gained over 31.2 million views. Walkyria jokingly referred to herself as a wizard in her caption and mentioned how people always get freaked out by the trick at parties.
Debra Rocca, an author, explained that the success of the trick relies on timing and proper weight distribution. She also highlighted that people’s memories can sometimes deceive them into thinking the task is easier than it actually is.
Many viewers were left puzzled by the trick, with some reminiscing about similar experiences from their past. The intriguing aspect of the trick is how simple movements and cooperation can create the illusion of something supernatural.
While the trick may not be new, its enduring popularity shows that people are still captivated by the sense of wonder and mystery it evokes.
